Thanks for this code
Pair of 38c paselas for the commuter for £37 is a good deal imo

Sold sorry!

I got a set of kinlin on Bitex 106 from spa cycles for my gravel bike. Good prices for hand built wheels, a few different kinlin rim options depending your preference. Have been great so far, and I’ve had other good experiences with the Bitex hubs on another wheelset previously

Thanks, that makes sense. Maybe will just try a slimmer regular cassette spacer then

I have a 10sp deore cassette on 105 hub that is slightly loose without cassette spacer, nice and properly snug with the spacer. Problem is that using the spacer in the usual place pushes the smallest cog too near the drop outs, and the chain interferes with the hanger (it’s originally a 126 spaced frame).

So I’m thinking to put a spacer the other side of the cassette to tighten things up, ie. between small cog and the locking. I want something like part 12 in the diagram below, except 1 or 2 mm thick, rather than super thin like this part below actually is . Does this exist?

I always think the Ritchey frames look great with silver finishing kit. I have silver and black on my outback

The sample Montebello they had built, I think that was silver up top also and looked lovely

Recently tried some Assos Ultraz winter gloves. Lovely quality, but after a couple of rides they weren’t really as warm as I’d hoped for. (I now have an XXL pair in exc. condition to sell, if anyone is interested)

I’ve ordered some of these Agu lobster mitts instead, which I hope will work a bit better for me. I thought about some of the gore split mitts, but i prefer to brake two fingers on my commuter

Deore XT v brakes addded

Yep

Trek multitrack 7600, no bid at £80, in Winchester
These are nice frames and make great gravel or touring conversions. Steel fork with rack mounts

Sorry all 110

Updated with drops and new items

Some deore v brakes to be added soon also

£36 for a pair of pasela PTs?
32c, which I think in paselas comes up more like a usual 30
