  Interesting! I'm still rocking my recabled SE530s and was wondering last week if things have moved on in terms of sound quality (I think I bought them ~10 years ago of a dude on headfi).

  Thou quite tempted to get a bluetooth amp for them. Anyone had experience of the Fiio BTR3?

  Thanks, looks great!

  They didn't have one in store, but on the decathlonuk_cycling insta, the paint on the womens version looks pretty nice...

  Went to Chingford to have a look at the Triban RC520 last night. GF is looking for a winter road bike/gravel bike. Looks pretty good IRL, and you can't argue with the price. £730 for 105 r7000 and HY/RDs?! They even do a womens version now with the same frame (different paint, not pink), shorter cranks and contact points. With some lighter wheels + tyres I reckon it'll be a pretty good bike (the stock wheels are 2kg + 410g per end road tyres).

  And the carbon fork has mid leg eyelets for ultimate hipster front rack bag graveldonneuring!
