Oh hai 👋🏻

Very nice. Are you a carpenter or is this a hobby?

I considered making my own, but don’t trust my competence.

I have a decent collection of watches now. Nothing particularly special, a few nice Casios, Seikos and a Uniform Wares. I would like to keep them in some kind of display case or box.

Any suggestions? Something that will fit about 6-10 watches.

It's now been over a year that Hub Velo have sat on this...

I gave my cranks into my LBS 10 months ago now... I'm losing hope.

A pal and I want to see Romulus together, but we are separately out of the country until early September. I can't find a cinema still showing it then. Do you think two weeks then it will be done? Any screens likely to show it in September?

I have a pair.

The pad is a touch too thin for the kind of ride that would demand a cargo bib, so they have a bit of an identity issue in that sense.

Pockets are fine, fit and feel are fine. Some weird zip bits that I'm not keen on.

Ok for ~£60. If it is closer to £80 then get some Rapha core.

That's my 2p on the matter.

My father-in-law's Rolex. Made the same year he was born, in 1956.
Anyone have any interesting info about it that I can share with him?

Out with the old red 2014 Supersix (I still have it, can't bear to part with it), in with new 2023 Supersix.

Yes, I like Supersixes.

For the record, I think the old fella looks better, but the new guy rides better.

This forumenger has passed on the wheels, so they are still available.

Just found these...

SHIMANO 105 12spd COMPACT CRANKSET 50-34, 172.5mm
Also off my Supersix, but switched earlier, so likely have done less than 1,000km.
Still in great condition, just swapped over to a shorter crank.
Again, just looking to recoup upgrade costs, so starting at £90 £85

Gilet.

Wheels, now sold.

Bars.

Hi folks,

For sale I have the following bits.

CANNONDALE HOLLOWGRAM KNOT SYSTEMBAR & STEM
This bar came on my Cannondale Supersix 105 Di2 2023 model bike that I bought from Sigma Sports in October. I began riding the bike from March, seeing this bar having ridden approx 1,375km.
It measures 44cm c-c, and about 45cm o-o.
It currently has a -6 degree 90cm stem attached.
Tiniest of scuffs that must have happened at Sigma or when my LBS swapped the bars over.
The reason for selling is that I swapped my bars for a narrower set up.
I am only looking to recoup the money I spent on new bars, so the price starts at £95 for both the stem and bars.

Collection is ideal. I live in Walthamstow E17 but can travel into central London.
Postage or delivery by yours truly is considered.

Did anyone get back to you about this?
I ride with Melon Optics Alleycats, and just saw these inserts they sell...

Interesting...

I wear it all the time except when on rides and in the shower or swimming.

Do you think taking it off at night would help?

I am very much enjoying my Seiko that I purchased while in Tokyo.

BUT, it appears to be gaining about 2 mins per week.

Is this a known issue, or have I bought a fake/duff watch, or does it need some kind of calibration?

Oooo, what is the other thread?
