Still on the hunt for a cheapo 105 crankset/rings cheers.
-
Anyone know if the clincher rim widths are the same as the disc?
-
Too short, but thanks for checking!

2012 oldschool double ring one;
Edit; would need to be a long one though!

The times in this thread make me jealous...
Sadly back to the less fun stuff. Advice please... I wrote my 58cm P2 off like an idiot, but thankfully it is insured.
Option 1. Insurance pays for frame repair + new seatpost (worth more than value of the bike) + rebuild. However this may take many weeks and I don't know if they can even source a seatpost of that model (cracked + unusable). I won't get it back more than a month before the IM.
Option 2. I take the money and find something else (£1200). I run the risk of struggling to get as good a fit as nothing in a Cervelo P2 58 in that price range atm, and bike geo is pretty hard to compare on TT bikes. Also run the risk of buying a dud.
Ideally I'd like Option 2 so I can get back on the training without a 4+ week wait - so if anyone knows of anything going in a L/XL, or any popular bikes that size similarly - I'm very keen and looking to sort out within the next few days. I can bump the budget up slightly if it wont need loads of parts replacing.
Attached my bike fit Geo if of any use.

Ok, will keep an eye out cheers. There seems to be differing standards of megaexo - some have said this may work?
-
Cheers, I found a few of these but as far as I understand it BB30A is asymmetrical, just to make life harder. So was struggling to find an insert.
Only one that I think would work is the first?
-
What's the easiest way to install a hollowtech crankset to a PFBB30a (for power meter reasons solely)? And what's the best?
No tools for PF but would ideally like to DIY with a cheap converter unless the results will be horrible... That way I could eventually look into pedal power meters / selling my current and replacing with something more useful!

Hi everyone. Need yet another for an upcoming build.
Pref ultegra, 6800+, but let me know what you have.
Would also be amazing if anyone had rings to fit a 5800 crankset
-
Thanks for this. My size and exactly the kind of thing I was looking at eeek...
-
Last bump before I just bid on everything on eBay tomorrow.
Need 2 really. Don't mind if one is alu
-
Eurgh. That looks like a stinger. What distance?
I just hit the car hard enough to bleed from my shoulder bruise with a few bruises (from the bike I assume) on the legs but it's nothing in comparison. Very lucky!
Tempted to swim train tonight. Thoughts...? Might not be the best idea
-
Very nice overall, especially the run!
In less happy news I potentially wrote off my TT bike due to someone cutting up the person in front of me (whilst on their phone apparently) and causing an emergency stop.
I was checking behind and did not stop in time. Fail my end but also very unlucky. Crossed fingers for the frame/wheels as I'm fine...
-
Bump. Still looking. Needs to ideally not need to be a huge clamping zone to get enough movement
-
Damn. Been looking for an inline for ages, so if somehow it frees up please message!
-
Will hold out for something considerably more budget sadly haha. Thanks anyway
-
Would also be interested in the wheels
-
Second dibs on the visions if @BondMax doesn't take please!
-
@boomboom any update?
-
-
Would prefer carbon, but if nothing happening in next few days I'd probably be games thanks! Will get back to you
-
Bike fitter wants to push me further forward and its just not possible with my layback.
Ideally cheap, would prefer a comfy ride if possible.
Live Kingston way, in Tooting daily, can collect nearby.
Would be happy to trade my Prime Primavera Carbon post if wanted

Good stuff. Very impressed by the run especially.
Sadly I've had my left ITB flare up like crazy. I put it down to stress of exams, stressing about replacing my bike and not backing off on the training enough to compensate.
Not even able to run 10km at the moment which is pretty brutal considering the 42km coming up in 6 weeks. Going to do a week of yoga and strengthening and just hope I can get to a point where I'm not walk/limping for 32+km. I'll still be well inside of cutoff... if I'm able to... but nowhere near a time goal.
On the plus side, the swim and the cycle are good. Legs felt amazing on the bike only 2 days after exams. Even popped in a quick(ish) lap of Richmond park at the end to make 100km and they still felt super strong.
Slowly getting used to swimming outdoors and getting the wetsuit to actually fit properly.
Tested out nutrition yesterday and my stomach performed admirably. I've never finished 5 hours of exercise feeling full of energy. No tummy troubles whatsoever. I've clearly never fuelled properly in my life.
