Ha. I’d forgotten that I missed out on this, thanks for the reminder (!). Lovely, as you say.

Dibs Zipp mount and latex tubes

2nd dibs on the flight case

If there are two offences it’s a five month ban (h/t Inrng). So yes, lucky they’re treating two days at the same event as one incidence (Inrng says probs because there wasn’t enough time to confirm/notify after the first test).

#wouldbuy if I didn’t have a setup already!

Any chance of full geometry? Probably too small for me, but depends how steep that compact geo is.

Shout if there are any bits of the group you don’t need, happy to split (further!) with you :)

Hi all

Don’t suppose anyone is hoarding a Victory Rear Derailleur that they don’t have a use for? Preferably for not silly money, doesn’t need to be mint.

Appreciate it can be hard to tell from photos, but those measurements look duff. There’s no way that’s a 118mm head tube and I’d be skeptical that’s a 56. Judging by the head tube, to me it shouts more 58+.

Not that I should be complaining, that puts it into my size bracket..!

But disc though? Too modern for my tastes (!)

While I’m no gravel expert, surely £300 for a decent looking frameset ain’t too bad:

Do you know the sizing? Might say 61 somewhere on the frame (which is the centre to top measurement of the seat tube). Thanks

I still have that Raleigh Dynatech, might be able to sneak something like Crud Roadracer or similar in there.

The old Schwalbe Ones were good for this, not sure about the latest Pro One offerings.

A Pellizoli secured solely by extension cables? You’d really hope they aren’t ‘on here’.

Or, for their sake, let’s hope they are and this shames them into a more secure locking technique? Otherwise that lovely bike won’t be theirs forever.

650c innit. Nothing wrong with smaller wheels necessarily, but it does tend to reduce the value a little.

Tend to agree with @fredtc re VB and that Enigma are unlikely to touch an off-brand frame.

There was another chap, I’m sure mentioned somewhere on here.

While it may not be £500, it won’t be simple/as cheap as you think. The bigger issue (I was told) is once you start warming up parts, there’s a risk the other welds start to fail. Weld on dropout could mean chainstay is gone. If chainstay is gone, needs the bb area messing with, which could lead to other fails.

That said, if you can find ‘the other chap’ and are willing to take a punt on a quick grind and re-weld, then give it light use, who knows.

Understand I can now swap out the freehub on the PMP, so now offering these with a 9/10 sp freehub if someone needs the flex to run 9sp (or 11sp with an 11-34 cassette).

Last call for this. Hopefully a bit of a clean would sort out the cd tray, shame to dump it when otherwise it’s providing good digital output.

Anyone know anything about Cool Beans coffee company? (And/or the happy donkey takeover?)

I’ve been happy with happy for a while now and while they say the current product line will be maintained, call me cynical if I don’t believe it since they have they’ve started adding their own beans into the mix.

It’s been said before… But you’ll have to rename the thread ‘not so ugly ducklings’ ! Looking very tidy.

How do you find the Hwy one bars? Have been considering them on/off for a while.

You'd hope that riders collapsing with unexplained arrhythmias would discourage teams from experimenting with drugs that cause heart irregularities, e.g. Tizanidine. Probably won't though.

Hi all

Free to a good home, my Onkyo DX-7222 CD player. Seems to get decent reviews, so no complaints re sound. However it has a few issues, hence free cycling:

1) The phono connections are busted. Not an issue for me, I used the optical out. I never opened it up to check the connectors
2) The CD tray has started to get a bit temperamental, doesn't always open. Turning on and off or wiggling it usually shakes it off. Again, I haven't opened it up to clean/play around.

Collect SW/central London, or can post at cost, if needed.

Cheers

Switched it out to 10sp DA and new wheels, so probs not I’m afraid. If you’re desperately keen do drop me an offer though.

300km riding inc fighting off the bunch at the end and he didn't look tired at all. Must've been the dropper?
