BNIB Wahoo Element Bolt

Brand new in box, never been opened.

Received last week as a warranty replacement as i snapped the mount in a crash on my other one, and bought another GPS while awaiting replacement.

Open to sensible offers.....

Hamerhead Karoo

The Hamerhead Karoo has a big discount on it at the moment (£196), so i have just bought one. Looks like a great unit, but quite large!

Anyone got experience of using one for Bikepacking / mtb type riding?

Re: Hello

Hi, im 6'2 and went from a small one man tent to the Big Agnes Copper Spur 2 man tent. Ok its a bit more than your budget, but its like a hotel, and very light. Im not compromising on space any more, i like to site up and get changed without being cramped. plus i can always take my kids with me now ...

Re: Carbon Seat Posts

I have had the alloy top of a carbon post fail in the bonding on the last WRT. It meant that my saddle could spin 360 degrees on the post. not helpful with a 17l pack on. That was th ed Carbon Kinesis post for ref. Lucky for me there was a bike shop within 10miles so i could buy a cheap alloy one.

Re: Kinesis Tripster

If its a Ti one, be weary, i have snapped two of the Racelight Ti's. The new one is now made in a different factory so hopfully will be better quality. But buy second hand Ti, and it snaps you have no warranty to fall back on. The new ones now have a 5yr warranty over the old one which was 3 years.
