Re: An interesting read...
Thanks I enjoyed that. Although at 43 and 23 years of sitting at a desk for half the day I appreciate front suspension AND big tyres at low pressures at the end of a long ride.

Jones Carbon Loop Bars
Jones carbon H Loop bars In fantastic condition. Two rides old but have switched out my firestarter to a suspension fork on my el mariachi and it feels weird without straight bars. Only signs of wear are where brake lever was fixed on RHS (see photos) and some scratches to the bar end plugs. Complet...

Re: Gravel but not, kind of.
I saw the prototype of this at Brother in the Wild Dorset last year and its a beautiful looking thing.
I suspect that anyone who reads Bicycle Quarterly will be drooling over it. I’m another of the opinion that cantis are a massive ball ache.

Purchased used from these shores. Seen a couple of trips but I’ve picked up a new harness so surplus to requirements.
I believe this is the first version of the bag.

WTD cheap hollowtech 2 cranks SORTED
I picked up an old rockhopper recently so am having a bit of fun turning it into a pub bike. I need a set of cranks to use with the microshift stuff I’ve bought so just need to accommodate a 10 speed chainring. Not bothered about arm length, 170-175mm fine
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
There is an absolute bargain of a medium Krampus on gumtree just now - in Wales. Looks too good to be true (and the price has gone up between two adds which is odd) but might be worth a look - search 'surly' on gumtree and it will come up - £725 I saw that too. Looks like someone has bought it and ...

Snugpak stratosphere bivvy
Going back to a tent so selling this. It is the one with the short poles which give you a nice bit of headroom. It’s also got a mesh screen you can unzip so on dry nights you can gaze at the sky which is a nice feature. I’ve used it twice so great condition. I got a bit claustrophobic though so a li...

Re: CUK and Article on New Forest / the Verderers
Great article this that summarises the (ridiculous) situation perfectly. I ride in the NF regularly and echo the comment on damage caused by horse riders.

Re: Sleeping bag liners
Thanks all. I have a thermarest neo air lite or something like that. It’s paper thin almost, so maybe that’s my problem.
Tbh I think a thicker quilt is the answer as I don’t want to carry multiple bedding items and I hate the bulkiness of bags on the bike.

Sleeping bag liners
So…. Some of you may have seen my quilt for sale on here which I find a bit chilly on colder nights. I was wondering if there was a sleeping bag liner anyone could recommend that would be able to make the quilt usable once the temps drop. Is there such a thing that has a comfort rating “upgrade” sta...

Used twice, but I run cold and this wasn’t enough for me in the colder spring nights. Packs up very small indeed.

If anyone tall is looking for a Cutthroat, Lyon equipment have a 58cm ex display apex model on their site for £2535. I think the frame alone is at least £2k.
