Yours was very much an inspiration to me.

@Merak it’s a Jango Rolls barbag, with Voile straps replacing the regular Velcro. Can’t stand Velcro, but do love voile straps.

It’s just a band of aluminium that’s the same width as one of the prongs of a go pro mount. Put a quarter turn twist in the middle and drill both ends, voila!

Yep, drilled the guards and mounted another Go Pro mount in to the front of the guards. I was worried that it would vibrate too much but it’s absolutely fine, even with a big Strada on it. Stick some plastic spacers between the prongs to make sure the fit is super tight.

No idea, not really relevant for me.

Nice. Steep seatpost and shallower headtube you end up with a relatively aggressive position with a relatively stable front end. Feels fast enough, feels comfortable, climbs nice. Admittedly it’s not light, especially with all the bush it hanging off it, but that was never the use case.

I appreciate that the 74° seat tube and 71° headtube make this XS bike look less small. Rate that.

My preorder Pfadfinder reached me recently, after a bit of prodding. Happy with it thusfar.

My attempt at the genre

what was here has now sold :)

you're in the second dibs slot

Nope, but the rims are cheap to replace if it bothers you. I can’t remember doing it so it can’t have affected the bike much

Here you go!

Ultegra R8000 rim brake callipers - £70

Very little use, in great knick. Very useful for getting bigger rubber in your rim brake bikes. If you’re very nice I can probably dig out some brake pads for you too

£95

£85

105 11 speed 11-28 cassette - £15

Passed its best, but perfectly functional. Will see you through the winter at the very least.

Cleaning out the shed to afford more items to put in the shed.

All items in Bath - pickup preferred but postage at cost also possible. I will be in London on Thursday / Friday / Saturday if you want stuff dropped off! Happy to entertain offers and bundles etc.

Will post some photos shortly.

Deda Superzero Alloy Bars - 42 ctc - £10

Used to hide Di2 cables internally as they have tonnes of routing options, and a nice rounded tops profile. These have a serious scratch / bit missing from the left hand bar end. Nothing you'd noticed with tape on and a bar plug in, but definitely took a slide at some point. I don't think it was me, but I can't remember.

Deda Zero100 alloy bars - 42 ctc - £10 each - two sets

My go to road bar - lovely shape, shallow drop. Really hard to beat for a compact drop. These have both been well used, and are missing decals and showing plenty of signs of cosmetic wear, but no scratches and not crashed. Price is per bar.

Almost - no holes in the front face of the fork or the underside. Worst comes to worst I can drill and epoxy a threaded insert exactly where I want it, but that’s definitely a bodge of last resort.

I think the Strada on this mount will be too much strain for even a metal guard, hence the Isen mount.

Might be better in the mudguards / dynamos thread, but…

Has anyone had any success mounting a moderately large light (Exposure Strada, in this case) directly to a nice metal mudguard (PDW 45mm lads)? I was thinking of using the mount Isen make for dynamos but I’m worried it will be too heavy / bouncy

got a nice red Pfadfinder on Order. Previous owners, what’s the max tyre clearance with mudguards you’ve managed? I was thinking 35-36c Tyres and 45mm guards but I’m not sure if the latter will fit…

off to eBay

Back from my holiday - lots of interest but no bites. Will be on eBay by Wednesday unless someone wants it?

I've kind of tried to sell it as a do-it-all MTB (which it is) but my mate races national series on basically the same thing. It's a weapon!

Accepting offers from people who are fast / close / nice

bad bits:

I'm trying!
