Re: Blagging bike boxes in Nice?

Myself and a couple of mates recently rode from Calais to Cannes, and we flew home from Nice. We arranged for a bike shop in Cannes to keep some of the boxes new bikes are delivered in back for us. The shop we contacted was Veloland Cannes, they were happy to help. We did get a friend who is fluent ...

Re: Reilly bikes look really nice

I've got a Reilly Gradient and it properly is the dogs. I bought it frame only and when it turned up, I thought it was so nice I thought about getting a 2nd one just to put on the wall (but I'm not that rich!). I'm running it with 700c 45mm at the moment, but the new version takes 55mm, and that wo...

Re: Igaro D2 or Sinewave revolution

Looks like there is a new option in the running.
At that price the velocharger might be worth a try, and I like the fact its got a flying lead attached.

Igaro D2 or Sinewave revolution

I am looking to update my usb charger, what's the opinion on these two chargers?
The only down side I can see to either is the D2 has those little pins that look ready to be snapped off.
Also one is £50 dearer, is it worth it.
Any help much appreciated.

Titanium seatpost on titanium frame?

Hi.
I am getting a new titanium frame soon, just wondering if there is any advantage to having a titanium seatpost instead of a carbon one?

Thanks in advance.

Nice 👍 I assume you are "down south" as it definitely wasn't a night for being outdoors near me. 150 mph gusts on the summit of Cairngorm this morning and flying debris aplenty lower down. I am in Suffolk, it was I bit breezy but that kept the frost away I think. The weather is getting wo...

I have been trying some LA beers over the past year.
