Are the clamps with the rotating whatsit better?

New Baracchi (frameset) courtesy of someone walking onto a zebra crossing without looking. Exactly the same as my last bike, except the paint is black and sparkly. Onepiece bar and stem likely the next piece of the puzzle.

Bought a Tune seatpost clamp to replace the stock one on my Condor, and foolishly didn't review the stack height. The Tune clamp is taller than the old clamp, and sits c.3mm above the top of the seattube/seatclamp section of the frame (rudimentary annotations below).

Is this going to damage the frame at all/not function as a seatpost collar?

I managed it in the end. Brand new cable with a sealed end helped a lot. I used a bit of brute force and some finessing of the angles to get it through the tiny hole at the lever. The rest of it was easy!

How then hell do I replace the gear cable for the front derailleur on a 12 speed lever? I can't get the cable threaded through the lever at all.

Sold om afraid!

I like Garmin a lot. The UI is a little more sterile, but there's heaps more days. I've got some Garmin power pedals and they work better with the Garmin than the Wahoo (unsurprisingly).

I much prefer the navigation and display of the wahoo, and really like that you can show information in the LEDs around the bezel.

If I didn't have Garmin pedals I'd stick with wahoo.

Aside from the 'official' Campagnolo instructions, does anyone have any tips on re-bleeding/re-cabling a 12 speed mechanical group set? I'm planning to give my Chorus groupset before a few big cycling trips this summer.

Received this as a warranty replacement but I've since moved to Garmin.

Brand new, in box, all the gubbins included.

Based in N.London near kings cross. Can meet locally or post.

Cheers,

I've got a roam v2 new (warranty replacement) that's just arrived. I've only taken it out the box to look at it.

Anyone got a Campagnolo ultratorque bottom bracket bearing removal/installation tool? Ideally the puller and setting tool. Will pay back with beer/equivalent. I'm based in N. London but can travel, cheers.

Optimistic 4th (?) dibs if you're happy to post.

"these really are, no, really, the best, just the best jeans. The crotch? It's perfect. There's no better crotch out there."

Yep, crotch is perfect.

Afternoon all, having a clear out.

Pair of Rapha x Raeburn trousers in dark grey with orange accents and reflecting print on the inside leg. These are 18.5" laid flat, so a 37" waist.
A few cuts and marks on the fabric, otherwise in good condition. Perfect pair of beaters.
£20?

An older Cadence Collection hoodie. In built neck gaiter, hood flap, phone pouch and 3 rear pockets. Designed during the peak fixie era, imported from the US by me. Used condition.
£15

Open to offers. Any questions please ask. Pickup N. London otherwise can post at buyers expense.

Cheers,

AsssBoss for sure.

Here you go. I was wrong about it being 112 links, i've actually got 110 links as per Campy's instructions.

Sorry, me again. I've cut the chain down to the recommended 112 links, but still get heaps of chain slap on the chainstay. I know a little bit of chainslap is expected, but in my case it seems excessive (going over grates in the pavement etc.). I'm nervous of damage to the DS chainstay, even with a bit of protective tape applied.

Will check these out, thanks.

I'm thinking I'll need to replace my campagnolo disc brake pads in the next few months, and have just seen they are 30£ each. Are there any forum approved alternatives that don't cost an arm and a leg?

Lovely, i'll buy one of those then. Would the shim be a 1 1/8 shim to sit on top of the cover?

As expected, I measured poorly last night. The actual depth is 3mm from the compression ring to the top of the head tube.
Do you have the appropriate cover in stock?

Lovely, ta. Let me re measure in the cold (warm) light of day tomorrow morning and I'll get back to you.

Are Vittoria Open Pave still the go to open tubular for winter? Or does a decent open tubular for winter not exist.
