Niche interest, but the current Shimano Nexus 3-speed disc brake compatible hubs are £21.99 on Wiggle / CRC: https://www.wiggle.com/p/nexus-3d55-3-speed-gear-hub

Needs a bell-crank and shifter to go with it, available for £15.99 from Bankrupt Bike Parts and, depending on the frame and gearing choice, a chain tensioner.

Might be of interest to anyone who fancies an apocalypse-proof winter hack / commuter / milk-getter.

I've always considered them as a means of staying alive rather than staying warm. :wink:

If anyone is after a hardtail, there's some crazy prices on Vitus ones at CRC/wiggle. https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/p/v ... ntain-bike looks the best deal to me at £300, but there's plenty others too

I've got the 1.0 and 1.6. With a decent mat and bivvy bag I find them both to be way warmer than they have any right to be for the weight. They're very small though, in both length and width, which I find a bit uncomfortable. Not my first choice if sleep quality is a priority but great for their intended purpose.

Exposure Strada superbright (10,000 mah battery) on CRC for £200. The non-aktiv version (which auto dims in the face of coming headlights). Be quick as I don't think there's many left.

Hoping it'll come with the full kit (usb charge cable as well as mains plug and the bar switch.

My Mountain Raid 1.0 just arrived. I know what you mean about being quite small, but I'm only 5'9" so it's not a big deal for me. I've gotta say, I'm utterly blown away by the pack size and assumed warmth of this bag. It's not "thick" by any stretch of the imagination, but not wafer thin as I'd suspected. I think this might fit the bill for a summer racing bag quite nicely. And for the price I paid in the sale... :o

It'd seem not any more ... I'm getting a 404 error ... it wouldn't seem to let me put one in the basket either
