They are on the blink again (compression / lockout not working) If I was to replace these, whats the consensus on something reliable and light? I do ride rigid too, but sometimes ...

FS / Swap: thomson 30.9x400 IL

As it says, I have a thomson inline 30.9 post. 410 long.

I don't need it, I'll take £35 quid inc the postage.

Or will swap for a nice 27.2 at 400 ish long. In line or small layback.

Condition of mine is almost as new

Re: Cold feet - hints and tips here

Which order do you put your carrier bags, socks and shoes On in?

I tend to go for thin merino first, seal skins next (not thickest ones) then either normal summer shoes or shimano winter boots, dependant on temps

Re: The post man's been ...

Whiskey No-9 forks Pretty nice they are. Got them from keep pedalling in manchester, had them a while. I like the green krampus too, but I like the dropouts on the ops better. 27lbs as the bike stands there. It is a 27tpi rear tyre with a tube in, so it will shift another 1 lb when that gets swapped...
