Good job I have loads is stamps lying around for no good reason (honestly just PM me your address and I'll pop it in the post)

Got it from this years' Radonee (an audax organised by Bristol's Das Rad Klub / Audax Club Bristol). I might have a spare lying around if you want it?

Rack sold STC.

As above. Not sure what brand the rack is. Here it is on my Charge Plug:

Yours for SOLD

Also a Wald Woody basket with all attachments. Was on my bike for about a month before I realised I wasn't using it enough to justify riding with it on the bike every day, so it's in almost new condition.

Terrible picture of it mounted on the front rack, but could also be mounted using the brackets provided.

Yours for forty five quid.

Collection in Catford.

Cheers.

Really glad you managed to shift it.

Enjoy it @rcorma, it gave me many many happy miles of joy.

yeah, really interested in hearing about the clip on ones if possible...

I added a Wald Woody to my Charge Plug.

Now just need to sort out those hideous clip-on mudguards and get something nice for the saddle and I'm good.

Has anyone successfully repaired the little elastic thing which keeps laces tucked in on these? I've been wearing a pair of Civilas almost daily for two years and the elastic broke the other day - the stitching has just come away from the leather tongue. Looks like a pain to sort out, and it's pretty uncomfortable tucking laces into the sides of the shoe. Any other solutions?

Good spot!

(Not really bothered about the colour).

God, such a lovely lovely bike.

Bump. Anyone got anything? Would take a crate or box - anything which would fit on a front rack.

Sold.

Potentially is it, though I had some interest via PM which I never followed up because I am useless. Will await a reply and let you know in the next couple of the days.

Not willing to post it at the moment (fao @kingofinsania)

his arms are so ridiculously skinny it's quite unbelieveable

yep - got my boyfriend a medium and it was perfect everywhere apart from the sleeves. Bit weird. Haven't asked for an exchange cos I assume the small would be a bit short. There's some crappy stitching on one of the back pockets though which slightly ripped as he put it on which isn't good.

The large on me is slightly tight but I'll probably live with it.

Curious about the sizing here; was about to get myself the large ladies one and my partner a small mens (going by the size charts, he's normally a small or medium depending on the brand) but now I'm having doubts that the charts are real...

Not after fixings, just a basket like the Wald 137 to fit on a front rack. If it's 36cm across or wider, I'll probably take it off your hands.

Cheers!

PM incoming

Ah. Unfortunately it's red.

Hopefully this works?

Bought one of these a year ago to cycle to Paris with:

I've since "upgraded" it to something else more suitable for my current bike. As such, this is going spare. Only used on that one trip, so almost new condition. Pretty great quality, minimal sway, I had no issues using it. Includes a rain cover as per the pic.

Specs / more details here: http://eng.uraltour.com/saddle-packs/

Cost me about £50 new, would like £30 for it. Pick up Catford (/surrounds) or the City.

How tall are you, @smaryka? I would love to upgrade my really crappy single speed but this might be too small for me. I'm 5'4", my current road bike is a 49cm.

I bought them both: neither fit my bike very well (it's a tiny frame, and the out-front mount for the Wahoo Elemnt Bolt didn't play nice with the handlebar bag). Boyfriend ended up using the frame bag which was great. Was quite jealous.

This ended up being my set up for 12 days:

That's a 15 litre Brook Street Saddlebag. Worked fine for the first 3 days, but after that it had issues hitting the back wheel over bumpy ground, which was disappointing given it didn't do this in my testing. I've thankfully resolved the issue with the guys at Brook Street, so it's okay. Next time I would add a top tube bag, but in reality everything I needed for a day's riding was kept in jersey pockets.

Couple more things:

Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg are great for cycling aren't they? I had a blast. 12 days and not a single drop of rain, pushing 30 degrees most days, absolute bliss. Managed to clock up nearly 1200km as well.

I now have a Uraltour saddlebag going spare, as I doubt I will ever use it again. It's one of these: http://eng.uraltour.com/saddle-packs/ in red, only used on a trip last year from London to Paris so it's in excellent condition. Think I paid about £46 for it -- does anyone want it for £35?

This setup looks great. I'm off to Belgium for 12 days tomorrow with just a 15l Bridge Street saddlebag but I think I'll pop into Decathlon on the way home and get either the bag or frame bag - could do with something extra to put tools in really.

Loud enough I think, but I never had the beeps turned on on my Garmin cos I hated them.

I bought a Bolt to replace a Garmin Edge 520. It arrived at the weekend and I'm pretty chuffed with it. Turn by turn directions are great when you use a route directly synced from RWGPS (getting TBT on the 520 was always a total fucking ballache and even then it was always touch and go as to whether prompts would actually appear) and I prefer the monocrome screen - imo it's way easier to read compared with the 520, and I don't find the screen too small at all.
