Are these on a Brother frame by any chance?

Loved mechanical Campy, found EPS online for a crazy good price, paid a serious amount in import fees, got it all hooked up and installed and it didn't work. Immediate warranty job. Moved to Di2 and am happy, albeit upset I never got to enjoy EPS

Moved to ebay.

That worked, ta

Does anyone have a good solution for the Exposure Blaze rear light? Mine is constantly getting misaligned during use; a big pothole, my thighs, or some other knock will impact it in such a way that it's seldom facing behind me when i've finished a ride. The Exposure mount isn't good enough it seems. Does anyone have an alternative?

Ultegra 12 speed Di2 lever to a hope rx4+ calliper.

Front brake was installed and bled without issue.

Rear brake isn't bleeding. I can push mineral oil from the calliper upwards (tested by removing calliper and checking mineral oil flows), but there's a blockage (presumably) somewhere between the lever and hose.

My plan was to remove the hose and check flow in the lever (ie. Push mineral oil through the lever and check it's coming out the lever opening), and maybe sticking a gear cable through the hydraulic hose.

Anyone had any experience clearing a blocked hose/lever before? And if I remove the hydraulic hose, but keep all the fittings in place (olive and barbs), can I then reuse it but screwing it back into the lever/calliper?

I'm near Islington. Would need it either this Saturday afternoon/Sunday morning, or Monday after work. Failing that, next Thursday/Fri/weekend.

Plan is to get the bike build/cabled tomorrow, all being well it should be finished by late afternoon.

Need to shrink some heat wrap and I'm not sure the blow dryer will suffice.

Yeah it's 50% off replacement parts, which in this case is the rim.

Hi all,

The clearout continues.

Selling this Scribe 5060D Disc wheelset. I'm technically selling the front only, as the rear is damaged (see pics). The front wheel is in good condition, a couple of nicks but nothing major. The rear rim has been damaged, the tyre blew off the rim last year, and the bare carbon went along the pavement for c.10 m or so. I haven't ridden them since. As such, I'm really only selling the front wheel, but will throw in the rear as well.
Currently I've got a campagnolo freehub on there, but can include a shimano freehub as well.
£sold

Also selling this Wald 1392 basket. It's been used fairly sparingly, but there are a few scratches here and there. The ends of the support struts may also be bent slightly.
£25 SOLD

Would prefer collection in N. London, but can post at buyers expense.

Cheers

I thought that too, but my auto lap has been off for months, and I still get the notification pop up

My Garmin 840 randomly notifies me when every 16.4km, even though I've turned off all distance notifications etc.

Has anyone had this issue before? It's driving me nuts!

What's the best way to get heavy oil and grease stains out of a workshop towel? I'd rather not put it in the wash and clog the machine up, but equally would rather avoid committing it to landfill.

Can they be soaked? I've got 3 or 4 microfiber towels that are soaked with grease/chain wax etc.

To make a pair of handlebars EPS compatible, do you just have to drill a hole in them?

Price drops, removed a few items.

Hi All,

Having a wee clearout. Based in N. London, pickup preferred but can post at buyers expense.

Swiss Stop Endurance Pads, Magura. Bought these but they don't fit, so haven't even been installed. Brand new. £25 > £20 No longer available

Sweet Protection Falconer, Large, Cloud White, great condition. Owned since new, never dropped. £70 > £50 SOLD

Any Q's pls ask.

Thanks Tester, I understood maybe 30% of what you've said, but will digest. I'll keep my eyes peeled on any movement in the seatpost.

Ah I seeeee! My mistake then, the upper lip is normal sized, but the body of the clamp is taller, so there's 'empty space' between the top of the seat-tube clamp area and the lip of the clamp.

So far so good, but it's a noticeable different shape to my last saddle, so my butt is still getting used to the shape. Give me another 1000km and I'll report back.

I have noticed that it's chewing through my bib sorts where they rub against the nose of the saddle. Again, tbd if this is due to the material of the bibs or if it's just intrinsic to the saddle.

I think some proper brake levers, even if they're the 'fake' type, would result in a smoother transition

AliExpress jobbie. My previous AliExpress saddle has been faultless across 20000km, but I wanted to see what the hype was with a 3d printed saddle.

Yeah I reckon bdhu a little bit.

Oh I see, so it's about uneven force applied to the clamping area, with more pressure applied to the top of the clamping area. Is this still the case if the top of the clamping area sits above the bolt on the seatpost collar?

Interesting. Out of curiosity, what would cause it to walk up? It not being seated properly? There's no upward pressure on the clamp so I'm struggling to understand the mechanics at play. In any case, it sounds like I can keep an eye on it for now - I'll scour the internet for a chrome clamp of the correct height/fastening mechanism.

@Kimmo I'm not sure to be honest. The Barachhi frameset has a designated portion of the seat-tube that's good for clamping, ie. it's of a narrower diameter and is raw carbon, rather than painted. I think this is my fuck-up, not Tune's - I should've got the right height collar. Not sure I quite follow with the dremel instructions though, do you mean dremel the bottom of the clamp to make sure it sits flush (ish)?

Noted, I'll have a look at some alternatives, cheers.

In the meantime, is the current setup likely to fail as a result of the height difference?
