Re: WTD: Cheap as chips 700c road rim brake wheels

I have a pair of Specialized wheels. Polished silver straight pull hubs, black spokes, black rims with shallow V profile . No decals on the rims just a laser etched S on the hub. Swapped off Specialized Allez some years ago.

£50 quid plus postage? Or pick up Stockport/NW

Outdoor active Km markers on route??

After uploading a GPX on to the Viewranger app you could then click in the route and it would show kilometre markers.

Can this be done on Outdooractive? Whatever I try on the app or Google to try and find the answer, I can’t seem to make it happen.

Thanks in advance all.

Re: Outdry delamination

Thought I’d just add my experience of late with Patagonia here. I bought one of their H2No fabric jackets in 2018 and earlier this year the tape began to come off the seams. The fabric was still really waterproof. I emailed them to asked what the best way to repair it was and they said they would re...

Re: New multi-tool and/or leatherman type thingy advice...

I carry a shoe lace for splitting quick links, works perfectly every time, just make sure it’s nice and thin. I bought a pair of red ones too, so I could spot them in the frame bag, ones for brogue type shoes work well. (Also had a pair filed down, cheap multi tool plies at one point. Which did work...

Re: Brooks saddles

I love my c17 for comfort. Both with or without padded shorts, I’ve never found a saddle more comfortable. It’s also lasted well, ridden off road in bad weather. As others have said is just a shame the weight is so high, nearly double my standard Fabric scoop.
