Re: What you done t' your bike today
'Finished' the Escapade re-build. I say finished in a very loose sense as I think the rear HY-RD caliper is leaking (they were free) and the tyres are really pushing it size wise for the mudguards but I'm sure it will be fine! :roll: https://punkrockbikeclub.files.wordpress.com/2020/03/img_20200309_...

Re: What you done t' your bike today
What's the axle on the front wheel, and how nicely does it play with the through axle dropouts? It's the allen key axle that came with the SON 28 hub I used to have. Seems to work fine. Those drop outs are just standard dropouts that are closed at the bottom though as far as I can tell so any axle ...

So having done the SP bearing hub swap thing with Ison today I fitted two (tubeless) wheels* on the Escapade re-build.

Stronglight Zicral 48t 110BCD Campagnolo chainring (free/postage)
So I bought this off of ebay and when it arrived it transpired it is the type where the bolt behind the crank is slightly off the bolt circle diameter by a few mm so doesn't work for me. The seller was none the wiser that this was a thing and refunded me what I paid but didn't want the chainring bac...

Re: QR v Thru Axles
I think this is one of those areas where tradition seems to have trumped functionality. If we were to start from scratch and design an axle/frame interface and we assume that a (very) quick way of removing the wheel wasn't a requirement, then we wouldn't end up with what we know as a QR system. I'm...

Re: Ribble Adventure
My 10 cents is that I prefer loops to drops on my bike* having run both. I generally feel more confident with the loops that I did with drops but that may be components rather than handling. I found drops made accessing the brake lever when descending a bit more difficult and I like being able to ju...

Bamboo bike frame, WTB Trail Boss 27.5 x 2.65 and a 27.5 front wheel.
A few things that owe me nothing but are cluttering up the loft...make me an offer? Single speed bamboo cylcocross disc frame and PX carbon forks. £200?!? How do I price this? I built it in 2014 (I think) at the Bamboo Bicycle Club in London. It was ridden a fair bit but then fell out of favor and h...

Re: Admiring the night sky - for how much longer?
There is also an argument that the biggest energy usage is still large companies rather than households and so the onus should be on governments to tackle their usage. I'm sure that's true Ben but if people bothered to turn lights off, not leave things on stand-by, put a jumper on rather than turni...

Re: Admiring the night sky - for how much longer?
It's a bit like power generation - I see turbines going up on a weekly basis and I wonder why there's no campaign to promote a reduction in usage rather than generating more? Then I remember that (a) there's no money in that and (b) people are generally too selfish for such things. There kind of wa...

Yeah I am. Riding the 50/50. I've ridden the route a few times but this will be the first time I've actually done the event.
I'll be (going very slowly) on a green steel frame with surly forks, jones bars and camo restrap framebag.

Interested if it's late enough in the year.
Might be a good motivation to:

2. ride more to get the fitness back to do 1.

Random request of the day? Does anyone have a headtorch sat unused in a box they want to move on?
It's for my Mum to use in her garden so doesn't need to be fancy/expensive/1000's of lumens.

Tubeless is great however currently fighting some gravelkings. Not impressed with WTB TCS tape, I've got sealant leaking out of the valve holes. :???: That sucks.
