They're not a snug fit Mark. Mine's a M and it's fine over a T shirt / fleece type affair.

I take a Medium in most jackets.

My Outdry is a Medium.

What’s the fit like on these... snug and size up or not? Thinking for layering over warm layers for winter night riding. They have XL and XXL in blue and reaching my full lockdown weight :wink:
I normally have large tops but my Columbia from the first batch was a medium and it's perfect.

I'm 110cm / 43.5 Chest - I've got them in large and they are a very relaxed fit on me.

These have been mentioned, before, when discussing ways of upgrading drop bars bikes from cable pull brakes to hydraulics, without having to change the levers.

They were a good deal before, but even moreso, now...

Flux cored migs are back on at Lidl this Sunday for £80. I've used mine a lot over the last few months and really can't fault it. Keep the tip a little closer to the work than you would using gas and drag rather than push the torch and you'll get some decent results.

10 Speed Tiagra shifter for £9.

Cheap if building a 1 x 10. Will only work with a Tiagra 4700 rear mech or Shimano Road 11 speed rear mech (5800, 6800, R7000, R8000, GRX) on a 10 speed cassette. I am using a 5800 rear mech on a 10 speed 11-36 XT cassette with this shifter.

Will not work with Shimano MTB mechs or other 10 speed road derailleurs

A few years back those kettles were notorious for making your network insecure to hackers. Have they improved?
