Shimano M785 Trail pedals - £20 posted https://punkrockbikeclub.files.wordpress.com/2020/09/img_20200906_150151.jpg Saucony Grid size 11 - £10 posted https://punkrockbikeclub.files.wordpress.com/2020/09/img_20200906_14...

Spot the completed DIY. :lol: https://punkrockbikeclub.files.wordpress.com/2020/06/img_20200626_155208.jpg https://punkrockbikeclub.files.wordpress.com/2020/06/img_20200626_155214.jpg https://punkrockbikeclub.files.wordpress.com/2020/06/img_20200626_155224.jpg https://punkrockbikeclub.files.wordpres...

Ok...so joining the I don't need this stuff clearout band wagon. More to photos to follow when I've taken them. Feel free to offer me some cash or at least pay postage? Or I'm in NE Bristol if you want to socially distance collect. On One Chunky Monkey 29 x 2.4 tyre (well used on the front but still...

Have dropped you a PM about the Twin Rails.

'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_...

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. Now having 'what bars?' thoughts when I was originally just going to put the ancient bell laps back on. :roll: https://punkrockbikeclub.files.wordpress.com/2020/02/img_20200213_1537...

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...

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...

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...

Do you want to make me a lowball offer for a tyre and a front wheel?

viewtopic.php?f=9&t=16171

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...

i have a set of Hayes CX callipers, silver ones, you can have for £20 posted, they need new pads though?

Paul

Can I take these if no one else is keen?

Surly Ogre (the old suspension corrected) 29er fork. - £80 posted? SOLD Pretty sure that's what it is from memory. A-C is 468mm, offset 45mm. 260mm uncut steerer. IS disc mount. Takes a 29x3" tyre. All the mounts for racks/cages etc. V-brake mounts (blanked off currently but I know I have the studs...

Redeye sold and one of the female exposure type connectors gone.

So I'm not going on long trips anytime soon and so I really don't need the dynamo set up I currently have so... (All prices include postage and I'm open to offers if I've over priced something or you want to buy multiple things :-bd ) Schmidt Son 28 dynamo disc 9mm QR hub laced with DT Swiss spokes ...

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...

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...

What width are the racing Ralph tyres?

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.

I thoroughly enjoyed that.

Thanks to good:
Kit, route, legs, food, beer and company.

Thanks Stu for organising.

Stu have sent you my email for the GPX. Am definitely coming. So that will keep the average speed down.

Are we still planning a noon start?

Interested if it's late enough in the year.

Might be a good motivation to:
1. ride it
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. It's Gorilla tape every time for me now. I used Gorilla tape on my MTB wheels and found it pretty easy to set up. TCS tape in comparison...
