Yeah just got an email that the cheapo Shimano rotors and some mudguards have been posted.

One of these in the boot - 3x the capacity, 0.0006x the price

^ any way to enforce a combined limit rather than a per-file limit?

I for one am a fan of @hugo7 's memedumps

Aw, was hoping it was one contraption that did all of those things

In hospital at the moment.. eeeeeveryone is coughing

There was a 105 hydro groupset that came up recently for £300 (edit £275) that I wish I'd got.
They don't seem to come up very often at that price, you can always get lucky though.

• Try to make eye contact with drivers waiting to pull out of minor roads, if only to get some idea if they're completely oblivious to you
  
• Learn the 'tells' of a driver who's about to left hook you - it's a bit of a sixth sense, but it's usually changing road position/slowing down slightly but not indicating as a junction approaches
  
• Be really vigilant of drivers and pedestrians turning across you when filtering down the middle. If a driver has waved them through they'll often not be paying attention and won't expect you to be there
  

Sorted now, thanks all for the offers.

👍 I'll take em please - pmed.

Did the tyres sell too? Interested if not.

Also open to buying another one I guess.

Looking to borrow or rent an extra cycle carrier compatible with Thule roof bars for a few days over half term, 16-19 Oct.

Have 2, just need a third so happy to return the favour.

Can collect from SE London.
Thanks.

Accidentally got 1kg of smooth a few shops ago... such a chore to get through.

Going for an MRI really is a great immersive techno experience. Does get a bit too experimental in parts though.

Fun looking 650c Serotta for £350 OBO, collection London

Yeah, I could live with that, although 650x45b is basically back up to 700c road bike size.

Are there any framesets out there designed for 650b with small (~35c) tyres and tight clearances? At that point I assume most/all manufacturers wouldn't bother catering for something so niche.

I like small wheeled bikes and am looking for a rigid disc 26er for pootling around on. I don't want a heavy expensive Surly, or a Tokyobike/retro mtb due to 1" threaded steerer and non-disc.

Currently riding a 2000s mtb with sus corrected rigid fork and 35c which is good, but can't take full mudguards and BB is a bit low.

Seems like there just wasn't much/any? crossover between the rigid 1" threaded era and the threadless, disc but suspension corrected era.

List of wants:

• 26er
  
• Disc
  
• Rigid, ideally with non-mtb clearances (thinking 35c-45c)
  
• Threadless steerer
  
• Full mudguard mounts
  
  

Anything of this spec ever get made - I guess some 26er touring bike is my best bet? Basically trying to scratch an entirely unnecessary itch.

No bids in the end, would've also been very tempted to pluck it for £240

Whoah, Late Nite Tuff Guy did Marauder?
That is a very unexpected connection.
Love that tune.

I find this so weird. Is it still due to overall global shortage (ie still trying to get first vaccines to developing countries)? I can't see how there wouldn't be massive demand to privately pay for it.

Shoppers 4 lyf
I love mine and is easily my most used bike.

Keep having to resist the temptation to upgrade bits on it, because then it loses its magic power of being able to lock up at stations for days with 0 worries.

Tempted by F&F, v brakes and guards in case you split
