Cold rooms?- I find ours works a lot better when the place is warm.

180 degrees, natch, sitting below the stem. Great stability.

Thanks again all for the help on straps. Time to bring myself back into modern MTBing..

Thanks all :)
@Landslide @Dogs What are you using to strap tubes to bikes?
-
Used them for years professionally without problems. One of those things that just work (once seasoned). Nowadays have a good non-stick for personal use, which is fine, but will be going back to those^ when it wears out.

Question for people with dropper posts. Just purchased my first bike with a dropper. Where/how do you store spares (tools, tube) on the bike? Been using a saddlebag since forever. But that attaches to the seat post, and I suspect will wear the post down. Also a risk of it catching the rear wheel at full compression.

I'm Bristol based, not London, but work with a lot of people who do similar length commutes.
Speaking to them, I get the impression that it is a real drag, and can/does wear you out. It prevents you doing stuff in the evening because of lack of time and tiredness. And any delays on public transport are magnified on a practical & emotional level.
Personally, if I were to do it, I'd assume two days wfh a week.
I studied in Canterbury once upon a time. Not there any more, but of you're interested in routes-
Have a look at Blean woods (nature reserve?) for graveley stuff and xc.
There's a pleasant gravel cycle track goes from Whitstable to Canterbury through some woods with lots of gentle off-roady stuff going off it.
There's a nice circular national cycle route going from Canterbury to Dover and back, about 50 miles on road.
And many, many country lanes to explore.
