Re: Downs 300 ITT
Hi there. Yes, that's the one. My mistake - I thought Javi had completed it in in under 24hrs, but I think the website you signposted has been updated since I planned my ride. I think it's definitely doable inside 24 (I managed 240 of the 300k in 17.5 hours before I gave up), but I'd recommend doing...

Re: Downs 300 ITT
I had a go at this yesterday, but failed miserably. I'd hoped to do it in under 24hrs and set off at 3.45am (rejigged route for Seaford start point), but got to 150 miles at about 9pm and decided I didn't have the stomach for another 4 or 5 hours in the hills in the dark! Hot-tailed it back from Was...

Re: Magnetic usb charging lead
If your usb connector needs replacing, I found a pretty reasonable guy on ebay - 25 including return post. Most others are closer to 50 and garmin wanted 90!ZeroDarkBivi wrote: ↑Thu Jul 11, 2019 7:32 pm Recently had this very problem with a Garmin 520+
This looks like an excellent solution - take my money now!

Magnetic usb charging lead
There was a thread on here a while back about a magnetic USB charging leads and I've just bought one to try and improve my on the fly Garmin charging. The big plus for me is that it's a two part lead - there's a tiny bit that slots into the charging socket on the Garmin and this then has a really st...

Re: TNR 2019 - advice on bike transport
I've booked storage at a hotel right next to the airport. Cost about 30 euros for the week and the website was called nannybaggage or similar - I'll check and report back later to avoid causing you any awkward browsing history scenarios.

Re: Wanted - hope bottom bracket
Thanks for all the replies. I've managed to find one on ebay, so it's reassuring to hear they last a bit longer than the Christmas cracker sram ones! The praxis one sounds interesting james - does it fit a standard bsa threaded frame?

Thanks mart. I may well just bite the bullet and get a new one, but just thought I'd ask in case someone had changed bb standards and had a redundant one.

Wanted - hope bottom bracket
Having experienced disappointingly short life spans with sram bbs, I'm going to give hope a go and just wondered whether anyone had one with usable bearings kicking around? 68mm bb shell and 24mm axle. Thanks

Re: Wanted - 9mm qr end caps for hope hubs
Thanks very much for all the replies. Lazarus, do you have caps for front or rear?
Ps not that posh - just reclaiming the hubs from a knackered wheel set a bloke at work gave me a great deal on!

Re: Salsa EXP Series Handlebar Anything Cradle and Straps
Thanks norm, it was me that wanted one,, but I found one on ebay. Hoping it gives a bit of clearance to avoid cables and keeps the bag off my front light.
