Ti Fargo frame and fire starter fork size large

Item 143162666466
I saw that. It's unclear whether the forks are actually being sold. The way I read it, he's bought the frameset for £2500, sold the £400 fork and now wants to sell the frame for £1850, but not really, because he might keep it and build it up. Riiiiiight...

Would have been better just posting a picture on here and saying "look at this nice frame I have!"
Good point on the forks. I didnt spot that they aren't included. Too much dollar for me even if were included. Also on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1375318 ... 883509653/ I have bought a frame bag from that seller. Nice guy,

Not if I'm not on the bike, carrying pack raft, life jacket, paddles, dry suit and all the wild camping gear I'd need for 2 or 3 days out in the highlands, plus it can be compressed to fit smaller loads

Righto, I thought it was just for walking to the river/lake and back, not a long walk in the Highlands with camping kit.

Evans are selling an On Guard gold secure cable lock half price at £24.08. My insurance specifies a gold secure lock incase of theft so this is a cheap extra.

Not for travelling but fine at home or around vehicles.

Not reading back, so sorry if it has been mentioned, but JÖTTNAR are having a 20% off sale. Makes their prices somewhat bearable.

Saying that, the two pieces of kit I have from them are utterly excellent.

I use these. Locked a bike to a ring embedded in the wall of my house.
Scrotes still nicked the bike, they jemmied the wall mounted bracket and probably got the lock of in their pit, at their leisure.
Great lock, well worth the money.
At the pace of sailing ships and bicycles.

Bargain Torm merino jerseys for small people: https://spcycles.com/epages/f16c048c-e9 ... /Torm_Sale

(The more "normal" sizes are reduced as well and the quality is supposed to be very good, but if you can get into an XS, there's some for £19 and £29.)

Sram Force long cage 1x11 rear mech at £49.99 on wiggle. 2.1 version rather than the newer 3.0, but apparently (unless I've dropped yet another massive bollock) compatible with a 10-42 cassette and road shifters.

That's a good subscription offer

I quite like a little browse through Trail magazine - I get given them from someone who has a subscription and has finished reading them. Thankfully the mountains don't go out of date very quickly...!
