@GazzaMaxx it will have clear coat which is like paint but clear.

@GazzaMaxx Yes, to getting it chased and faced, there is a price, for the cheap price and a bit of over spray in the threads can make it a right pain in the arse to fit the BB correctly.

The frame I got before christmas had had the BB threads cut at a slight angle so the bb would not go in straight. By the time i'd worked this out I'd fitted the headset and cut the steerer tube and had the BB chased by a bike shop that confirmed the problem. It was too much hassle to send it back so I'm now using a self threading BB which works much better than the review on the internet suggests. anyway, I digress.

First job defo chased and faced

I have cinelli gazzetta and they come up larger than you would expect from size information. I have look at getting a Histogram frames over a number of years and sizing / geometry seam to change a fair bit year on year.

All I can really offer is look very closely and the geometry chart and if you get a change see one in the flesh. Best of luck.

'I'm finishing my coffee' and enjoying your Lebowski quote @se1derful.

Yeah, you can get a week of riding from one of those cheap On-one Merino baselayers before they get too offensive. I do have a Rapha baselayer but it rarely get used.

With Rapha I'm between a medium and a large, depending on how snug I want the fit. Morvelo is a little for 'italian' in there sizing so I would suggest sizing up.

I have one pair of rapha classic bibs and they are nice but no better than a pair of Morvelo bibs which for the price compared to the rapha's they can't be beat.

No, they were judging your weak thumbs

I'm hopeing to do 10,000 miles this year, I've currently done 1383... Steve's just mind blowing....

I'm toying with the idea of getting a cardon fork to put in the front of my Pompino (New, non wish bone seat stays) does anybody have any suggtion for a fork for canti brakes which will closely mirror the fork it comes with. I really love the way it handles but would like to make it a bit lighter. Cheers

switching round the M and the N on peoples key boards can be a good laught. The last bloke I did it to rang the IT help desk to try and resolve the issue.

It'll be interesting to see who gets stopped given this quote

"The force said it would specifically focus on people using mobile phones whilst driving, speeding, failing to wear seat belts and on vehicle defects."

Aren't somewhere between 80 - 100% of HGVs found to be defective when there stopped ?

Cross bike this morning, bit of off road action. 7/10

Have you got household contents insurance? if you do you'll have personal liability cover which will cover you just the same as BC third party cover (other than cycle racing your household police doesn't cover that)

Best of luck with your claim

The "I can't see you look" is used by motorists as it's a full proof get out of jail free card if they kill you.

I love my SB8 on the cx bike, the DTC compound is da shit!

They have good discount codes from time to time, it's worth following them on Instagram and Twitter. In think the last one was 25% off everything, which pays for your vat/charges and you can still take advantage of a reasonable $2£ exchange rate.

Yeah, I've had a few thing from cadence in the US. They will not be 'creative' with the shipping value, so they will put the true value of the goods on the shipping information.

So your looking at 20% vat plus, normally a £8:00 handling fee (a charge for charging you money - but this can depend on the shipping service used)

Holding a driving license really is a license to kill.

The Hood Rain jacket has just arrived this morning, the colour isn't as bad as I feared. Nice fit in the body and arms having sized down, just a little short in lenght, but there's always the baboon's bum flap to deal with that....HOW pink !

@rogen How's the fit ? I find the jackets tend to run a bit larger than the sizing suggests, I've gone with a medium i'm just between being a medium and large.

Is anybody wanting on a order from superdomestik ? Mines been stuck in customs for nearly a week.

The status has just changed to 'Revised charges to be paid' I forsee a MASSIVE VAT bill along with whatever other specious charges they can come up with.

Finally decided to get something from the Rapha sale, the Hooded Rain Jacket was too good a deal at 45% off. I'm not surprised they've got loads of the red one's left, what were they thinking!. It’s a bit busy for my likely really (those cuffs) but it’s going to be relegated directly for commuting.

Most peds will have personal liability insurance as part of there household contents insurance policy which will have at least 2million cover, just the same a third party liability insurance for cars. It also covers you as a cyclist (as long as your not racing)

It's worth remembering

Well, I'm large / Medium in Rapha depending on the age of the jersey / how racey I'm feeling.

my Milltag kits are all large and are roomy. I would say the run true to size. not like the the mental world of santini
