Today it's Evri or FuckingEvri as I refer to them.

That's two sale items in the past few weeks they've managed to not deliver/lost in the ether.

Of course when I go to order replacements they're sold out. Great, thanks Evri you truly are fucking hopeless.

I feel your pain.

Where do you get that for £31?

The chap that owns it posted on STW. He's getting out of the wheel game and wants rid of the stock apparently.

Hence the giveaway prices.

Yes as said above we have sold off the wheelbuilding side of the business due to supply chain problems making it impossible to get everything we needed to make wheels, someone offered us a good price on the machine line and that was it.

So we are clearing out the stock we have at below raw materials cost.

im sure we are going to get people saying they were originally overpriced etc, well off you pop to buy your generic asia stuff for more than we were selling our UK made wheels originally….. your loss not mine.

Yes, been a bit busy making medical stuff for a few years. Had two babies, moved house, life busy and complicated so no time to do all that and launch new stuff when you couldnt get raw materials for sensible money.

Just sold a few hundred wheelsets in a day or so. all the preorder stuff is waiting on freehubs being assembled and spacers landing to be able to ship them out. everything is built and boxed, once its gone its gone.

note we have thousands of spare parts which will last for years, and we can get more made if needs be. so no they arent disposable junk. Im sure its going to make alot of people happy to get a true bargain for once.

Yes.

I've bought another set. It just insane value. It'll keep my winter bike going for years..

75% off @ Superstar now.🤷

Don't think.I haven't thunk of that.😭

Fucking tubeless.

My MTB rear is suddenly flat after epic battles to get it holding air in the first place some many lots of time ago.

Tbh I was just glad the cunt held it in the end. So the usual dance ensues, clean rim, fresh tape, a heated awl no less for the valve. Next day, pancake.

Off to the bike shop then Wheelcraft where I'm relieved of £15 for some extra insulting tape round that pesky valve area where all the escaping is going on. Oh and a 'new' valve too.

Had to shame him into getting it seated onto the bead as well. Shitebag.

Guaranteed until out of site obvs.

Next day, yip pancake.

So I go back to fastidious prep, hot awl, new tape, sealant, ping ping. And a few wraps of PTFE tape at the valve.

Next day, not flat! Although it's lost 39 of the 49 psi's

For the love of God. Fucking tubeless.

I liked her. She was v much if you don't like it you can fuck off.

Rear facing running lights. Is that a thing? I'm feeling pretty inconspicuous on my night runs.

What do you use?

I stand corrected. Forward me your address and all the Bastard Bounty's are yours.

That there seems to be a inordinate amount of Bounty's within any given murder? of Celebrations.

No one likes Bounty's . No one.

A paltry smattering of Maltesers though, suspicious.

My inability to keep the key bowl thing I use exclusively for keys.

All manner of shite ends up in it.

Canal path (engrossed)phone users. Also noise cancelling headphones on folk running on narrow canal paths.

Another cockpit finished this week.

Starts off like this.

I've watched this guy. The amount of food he puts away is incredible but the mess he makes of his beard.

How gauche.

Spent some time sewing this excellent patch on my new bag this afternoon. Therapeutic, I'd like a sewing machine though.😁

The Bad Guy on Amazon is very watchable.

Haud on

I'll take the decals off, not a fan.

They're very light, Hope like click from the freehub, I am a fan. As I mentioned bargain for luddites like me with the rim brake and all...

I bought the £51 set which arrived today. Have to say for the money they are excellent.

As a spare set of wheels they are unbeatable value.

I use Kinlin on 105 at the moment which have been great but when the rims chuck it I'll have these when I'm getting my unbreakable 105s built onto more Kinlins.

I do love a patch on a bag.

Florence & Fred?

I'm afraid it's Mary Anne Hobbs and her 'music from the near future' and tracks 'lifted'

Also Steve Lamaque and his daily features. Can he not join Steve Wright wherever he went.

'Have you ever stubbed your toe entering or leaving a gig'

I get that it's better at the weekend and at night but if only these two might be replaced with someone else.

Tragic.
