These ceramic watering spikes?

The 2018 with the thru-axle fork? Pretty impossible I’d say. I’ve been looking for a 54cm to replace my 56cm. I’ll let you know if I spot one!

Can you repair it before it breaks?

So it’s not fully done up?

Yep, I have the same on my CAAD12 after a fairly big off. It's been fine for a few hundred miles since.

Haven't been, but heard good things about Sushi Surprise

How did you get on with this bike Henry? I’ve just ordered a new one (size L, sorry!) for here in Barcelona based on a short test ride. It’s be good to hear your thoughts!

I had an M135i for a few years (a ‘14 plate 5 dr). It was fantastic! With decent tyres on it had plenty of grip on both dry and wet roads. Completely normal to drive in town, with an angrier more exciting side revealed in Sport mode when you wanted it. For a car that size, it was quick!

Some suspension tweaks were going to be my first upgrade to make the car more settled on bumpy roads, but then I sold it and moved abroad.

The few things that weren’t so great were the relatively small rear legroom and boot. Totally fine for a couple though.

Be sure to get one that has proper Bluetooth connectivity and some options. A lot were specced super low on cheap lease deals. The m140i is meant to be a step up interior wise, more powerful engine and prettier looks.

Likewise. Some lovely shots there.

As in, the tray itself, not the mesh? Why would you - aesthetics?

Spray delicately with washing up liquid diluted in water. 1 part to 4 parts water.

Could you post to Spain? I’ll take them if so!

I’ve literally just started learning to mix. Bought myself the Pioneer DDJ SR2 decks and decided to use Djay Pro 2 software rather than the Serato licence that comes with them. Reason? Integration to Spotify means an almost endless music collection already organised into my own playlists. Of course, this does have the disadvantage of needing a good internet connection in order to play music...

Great! Let me know what you think.

Indian recipes you say? My Mum has written an Indian recipe book that has literally just been released (for which I have done the photography). Shameless self plug, but it seemed like the perfect opportunity.

It’s a non-profit book, with all proceeds going to a family member’s memorial fund. This will then be distributed to a number of youth-focused charities.

The recipe are almost all Punjabi (North Indian), with a focus on explaining the reasoning behind certain ingredients and methods, as well as a bit of a social commentary from my mum growing up as a 2nd generation Indian in the UK.

I don’t understand how you have done that in your spare time??

Not convinced, but if anyone wants a referral link: https://initiativeq.com/invite/SXCN36As7

I’ve been in living here for 18 months now... if you’re still here, try El Pachuco for tacos, Robata for sushi, Bodega 1900 (if you can get a booking) for excellent tapas, Parking Pizza for err, Pizza and El Xampanyet for a crazy busy/fun cava and tapas experience.

Like beer? Try Garage for a decent selection. Coffee: Satan/Syra/Nomad.

One last go, and then this.

Thanks all. I’ll try all the suggestions and let you know how I get on.

There’s definitely enough gap between the top of the steerer and the stem so I don’t think it’s that. Maybe the carbon paste will help...

Yes, the latter. At the end of a ride there is play again in the headset. I am convinced that the bung slips up in the steerer tube.

It's this headset.

No.

I greased the bolt/thread interfaces so the torque is being measured correctly.

Yes, I think so. Everything greased correctly and torqued correctly as I understand it from the manual.

Is there anything that I should be doing differently?

The headset expander bung on my 2018 CAAD12 loosens after every single ride. What can I replace it with that will actually work? What about the Deda bung for carbon steerers? Ive used it before and it’s been great.

Lovely bike. I have the 2018 and have done identical upgrades to yourself! Good choices, you’ll miss it.
