Anyone got any recommendations for a handlebar (31.8mm) mount for a B&M IQ-X? Put some new forks on my Genesis yesterday & now there isn't enough room for the brake hole mounting option I was using before. I think the higher up position would be better for seeing the route ahead anyway.

I've found that 25C Veloflex fit like 23Cs. Lovely tyres.

Good experiences with @LeChef, @Nice_Ben & @Bonj0ur recently!

Steerer is 182cm.

That's one heck of a steerer, it's as tall as me.

Just had a play around with my girlfriend's Garmin mount & it does look like it'll work as it does allow turning it. That suggestion actually looks identical to the £15 official Garmin one she has, but half the price! I'll give it a shot, cheers.

Sweet, a solution to the awkwardness of getting bars in/out of quill stems.

Any idea what the stem is here? Quite like the two colour thing going on.

Anyone got any suggestions for a cheap out-front mount? Was thinking that this might work if you can rotate the end bit. Anyone got any experience?

Anyone ridden with SRAM Force X1 & SRAM Rival X1, & is there a noticeable difference?

For evening out the weight of the wheel.

Strava on my phone is way too unstable for that (Android 8.0.0). Crashes regularly when paused!

Cycling home along Kirkstall Road yesterday. It's always completely chocker & cars are backed up all the way up the road, & with the bus/bike lane as it is, anyone wanting to turn left has to wait until the end of the road. Obviously, this leads to drivers pulling out as soon as they possibly can, even when traffic isn't moving because of the lights.

Van driver yesterday pulls to turn left almost right into me (thankfully I managed to swerve) as I'm riding back hugging the right of the bus/bike lane to get to the ASL to continue straight. Manage to get the attention of the driver at the line & he gives me the dumbest look & insists that he checked his mirrors multiple times. Fat chance. I hope the person in the passenger's seat tells me how close he came to knocking me off, obviously not having looked at all. Frustrating!

Cool, dibs! Will PM.

Sweet, ta!

Links #2, #6 & #7 don't work for me.

Interested in the carbon disc fork. Any idea how heavy it is?

I was just about to say that I'm sure I remember seeing this on eBay a while back.

Most of these seem to go for about £250 here I'm afraid, from a quick search.

Ta! Heh, they are actually gumwalls, I just haven't cleaned the bike since summer though.

What size are the shoes?

Have to agree, doesn't gel very well with the oversized aluminium tubing.

Edit: ah, realised that you were after saddle suggestions. Difficult to suggest anything as saddles are a very personal thing fit-wise. I find Selle Italia SLRs really comfortable though. Have them on all my bikes but one now.

/r/fixedgearbicycle feels like cheating.

A friend has the same bike as this & its stock state is dreadful. Can't imagine why anyone would ever want that paintjob.

Particularly ridiculous as the stem isn't even at minimum insertion!

Some good stuff, & some really awful stuff.

So clean! Looks brilliant.
