It is a bit plasticky, as some reviews have said, but it's a raincoat, so that doesn't bother me. It's surprisingly non-bulky ( was thi...

Re: DrJon Strapdeck --Klickfix combo.

Will try to post some pictures, soon.

Re: Mind blown
Take any multiple of 9
Add its digits together
If the result has more than one digit, go back to the previous step.
The final, single digit, result is 9

I've just found a box full of 2 bolt Gorilla Clips if anyone's interested. The quick release fittings can be removed and a normal cage fitted with the twist of a 5mm allen key and they can be mounted to bars, downtubes etc with the addition of the supplied backing clip. https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-D...
