Rich - how much you looking for for the Chinese carbon ones? Cycling to Orkney soon and don't think I'll need the Pikes on my hardtail for Sustrans routes.... How does £60 posted sound? They've only been used a few times, found i prefer a bit of spingy stuff upfront, need to check stearer length. (...

I know you said no Chinese carbon, but if you're stuck, I've got these in the shed wanting a new home

Had similar numb feet issue on SPD's. Turned out the screws on the cleats were a touch too long, that combined with a cheap insole meant I was getting vibration directly into the foot. Solved for me with shorter screws, and a thin (but quite stiff) piece of plastic gaffer taped over the screws insid...

On a similar theme, there is an interest LiDAR (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lidar) view of the NYM that you can view as a transparicy against late 19thC maps: https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/#zoom=1 ... s=171&b=13

Looks superb, won't look like after 2 mins in the Chiltern mud. Looking forward to seeing it loaded, with at least some of those braze-ons populated

You might be able to do a reverse of this, need checking out though....

For 650ml mug, I've found the Pika stove to work very well with a bit of ceramic wadding in the bottom as a wick:

You should read that fabulous blog writeup it looks to me like 52°21.023' N, 3°36.410' W

TBD, I've had some great fires and cooking with a https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOMSHOO-Camping-Wood-Stove-Portable-Folding-Lightweight-Titanium-Wood-Burn-D1D1/183834452910 , my mate Ben swears by a https://www.ultralightoutdoorgear.co.uk/equipment-c3/stoves-c12/titanium-hexagon-stove-p422 which is rea...

How about 1.2mm polypropylene Reg, scroll down to section on material.....

It's an AK tapered bag, 9l ish, fits perfect.
Quite like a bit of sway myself, I thinks it's going to work well. Start up a MYO thread Reg if you can find some material.

is it material or plastic /rubber -basically what is it made of? looks great but way way more than i would even consider paying Its made out of quite stiff, but flexible plastic, like a thicker version of a folded fork mounted mudguard. Could be very MYO if you could get a big enough piece of plast...

85 NZD - ouch. You ordered direct? Yes its overpriced once delivered (got copped for the import VAT too) but it does work (once an extra strap added), the seat post clamp has a sturdy Voile strap and clears the seat clamp, surprisingly stable and lets me use the full sus for bike packing. Obviously...

Work xmas do on the Friday so aint going to want to travel Sat, so local Chiltern ride would be bang-on The round house was amazing but also quite happy with local woods.

Any more takers for a Chiltern ride, the Autumn colours are amazing at the moment?

TBD, what's your plan mate, I'll probably meet Ben in Flaunden, but could meet where ever you like.

9th Nov looks like the new date which is cool because we've got a few takers :-bd Tricky ones going to be the location, :roll: How's about getting to Berkhamsted on the train and we can ride out to Penn Street https://www.thesquirrelpub.co.uk , 2hr ish ride (with loads of options) and easy for TBD, ...
