Got a few bits for sale:

Twin bike wall hanger - good and sturdy, has a shelf at the top for helmets etc - £10
Shimano R077 SPD road shoes, size 46 - worn only a few times, basic but decent - £10
Shimano M162 SPD MTB shoes, size 47 - again, worn only a few times - £25

Sounds good, I'll certainly consider giving them a shot if I get sick of the X-Kings.

Stem wise, you might find a bit of rise also helps, I picked up a shorter stem with a 30deg rise when I was running the flat bars, certainly improved the reach. This is what I bought: http://www.wiggle.co.uk/ritchey-comp-30-degree-stem/

Nice! How do you find the Big Apples? I had some Halo Twin Rails on for a week or so but went back to the X-Kings.
I also kind of had the same plans as you, I managed to pick up some Versa Alfine 11 shifters from the forum and was going to get some Salsa Cowchipper bars, instead I've actually just fitted some Jones H-Bar Bend clones by Humpert, they were super cheap and they feel pretty good:

Nice ride! I didn't really have a choice with mudguards as the stays are too short to reach the eyelets, but it works I guess.

Thanks guys, I've only had it a month or so but I'm pretty pleased with it so far. It sure isn't light but it rolls over everything!

Bugger, cheers for the heads up, fixed!

My Genesis Fortitude monstour/winter workhorse:

Yukon on Gumtree in Norwich at the moment, £50: https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/raleigh-21-speed-mountain-bike/1134947064

First this:

A kid on my street had one, it was badass.

Then this:

I ended up convincing my folks to get me an Activator 2 for my 12th birthday in 1994, I was gutted when I eventually outgrew it. Probably still my favourite bike I've ever owned!

Anyone interested in a good quality turbo? This has been sat in the corner for over a year now, it's a CycleOps Fluid 2, I think I used it twice. Loads quieter than a fan based one and the fluid resists more the harder you pedal, so no need for gearing on the actual unit.

Nope, sorry, bike sold as complete.

No PM received? Unfortunately the bike has now sold.

Hope Evo

My old Fortitude SS, such a fun bike! It's a shame Genesis decided to stop making them.

Hi there, I've got a Genesis Croix de Fer for sale in 56cm:

https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/273489/

I'd do the bike with just the Alex wheelset for £400. Those interested in the H Plus wheelset, I'd do them for £200.

I'll give it a few more days and if there isn't any interest in the whole bike I'll split the wheels.

Hey folks, my Genesis Croix de Fer is up for sale, a good solid workhorse ideal for those rotten winter commutes. I'm based around Earlham Road if any local folks are interested in taking a look: http://www.lfgss.com/conversations/273489/#comment12480639

Genesis Croix de Fer, 2012 model in Reynolds 725. Various marks on the paint here and there, but in overall good condition. Has served me well commuting over several winters and is a really comfortable ride. I had some H+Son Archetypes on Hope hubs built by Gav at August Wheelworks, with Conti Gatorskins and full length SKS mudguards. I also swapped out the crap Shimano brakes for some Avid BB7 MTN callipers. Comes with the original Alex Rims wheels plus Conti CX tyres, and a set of Schwalbe studded winter tyres. I've also fitted some Shimano M324 pedals so you can either ride clipless or in regular shoes. Does not come with the Brooks saddle pictured but I'll supply a Charge Spoon in brown.

Looking for £600, based in Norwich. I'm also open to trades on an MTB, ideally looking for a Genesis Fortitude Adventure or something similar.

I'm looking for one, could swap for my 2012 Croix de Fer if that was agreeable, or just pay cash.

Practically new set of Conti Ultra Race clincher in 23mm. Looking for £20 for the set.

Hey folks, I've got a Halo Double Fix-G splined hub up for sale, has been laced to a rim before but removed straight away after a change in requirements, so has had no use. It's in a silver finish and is the 32h version. Has splines on either side so you can run two different fat foot cogs. Retails for £80 but looking for £60. Based in Norwich, but happy to post.

Hey folks, I've got a Halo Double Fix-G splined hub up for sale, never used and in a chrome finish. Has splines on either side so you can run two different fat foot cogs. Looking for £60

If you're into Converge and Botch then I'm pretty sure you'd dig Coalesce! '0:12 Revolution in Just Listening' is pretty immense: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDi2Q5s9ri8
