Re: ultra minimal multitool suggestions
Ratchet rocket and then just take the bits you need. Love my ratchet rocket, just added an 8mm sleeve that goes over the 6mm for pedals, purloined from another tool and it's perfect. For weight weenies do away with the rubberised cover and it's pretty slick. As an aside the seatpost makes a good br...

Re: Cycle2Charge Reliability?
Anyone know where I can get a handlebar mount for my c2c? German amazon has them but it's €20 under the minimum postage limit. Email dirk. He has loads of spares that aren't listed. Spare cables etc. Thinking about it I think I've got one spare at home. Can check later. But... I will never mount mi...

Re: getting started with wheel building
With Torino Nice on the horizon I bit the bullet and decided to learn a new skill and built a dynamo front. Getting the info for the right spoke length was easy, many calculators out there and finding the flange diameter of your chosen hub is a visit to the manufacturers website, as is the rim ERD (...

No reason why not, a 32 spoke front well made should handle either.

It seems the European Road Championships happen to be in Nice, Sept 14th-18th, route is from Monaco to Nice and a loop up and around 'Eze. Being a bit of a petrolhead a Monaco diversion was already on the cards, might have to stitch the Championship route in for the last day. The Euro's are usually ...

Re: Thinking out loud - bear with me.
I can't comment on the suggested groups that might (would!) benefit, but as a cyclist that previously suffered from some fairly severe depression and self image issues, the steady drip drip of endorphins has been a massive stabilizing factor in being able to enjoy life again, the world is my oyster ...
