I had ABC on 12" and an ep called Derby & Joan which I think were both released before their albums. Both were absolutely brilliant and still get listened to today. Loved this band.

Omnomnomnoms fair game again. Nom.

Update: shifters sold, interest by PM today in the Omniums, MTB cranks and Reynolds. Saddle still looking for love. First dibs to those who posted interest in the 2x cranks and wheels today, but will mention here if they become available again. Thanks.

Ha, thanks Ed. I don't have a fetish to wear women's clothes and/or high heels. It's only women's bikes I like, honest! This one was bought for my wife, but it was so good it became my mtb of choice, which is a result as otherwise it would have only got 1 short ride!

Sorry chap. Shifters are paid for and in the post already. Thanks though.

Thanks for another recommendation, they are great wheels. And sorry, no, I'm using the Campag freehub on another Reynolds wheelset so it's not available.

Yep, £8. Will probably cost about a fiver to post though. Yours if you want them. PM me.

Pretty sure these wheels were from a time before 11 speed, so not sure if they'll take an 11 speed cassette or not. I used to use them with a Campag free hub on it and that was ok with 11 speed, but I've only ever used it as 10 speed since I put a Shimano free hub on it. As it's basically a Hugi 240S I suspect you could get an 11 speed free hub from DT Swiss these days...

Not entirely sure TBH. They're 10spd, and say SL-BS79 on them, so does this mean they're 7900 series? They have that usual "snail trail" etching that you always seem to get on the silver bits of TT shifters (what causes this btw?), but they work perfectly.

Evolution for sale...

Thanks.

SRAM Omnium GXP chainset, 48T, black, 172.5mm. 73 miles old! Minty. £100.

Reynolds MV32C carbon clincher wheels. These were the top end wheels from Reynolds at the time, with higher grade carbon than the equivalent Attack model. Light, aeros and fast. Upgraded with CX Ray silver spokes, DT Swiss made Reynolds branded hubs. These have Hugi 240s internals. Shimano freehub, no tyres or skewers. Carbon specific pads always used (Swissstop yellows) and the rims are in great condition. £350.

Selle SMP Evolution black saddle. These are very very expensive new, but fantastic quality and the only saddle I've found that doesn't give me numb plumbs in the TT position. Don't TT anymore, don't need this anymore. Very low mileage on the saddle, but the odd scuff. £90.

FSA mountain bike chain set. Removed from my Superfly shortly after buying it from new. Double. Fits shimano bottom brackets. £8.

Shimano 10 speed TT shifters £20.

I'm based near Maidstone in Kent. Pick up preferred, but could post at cost in addition to the stated prices. Shout if you have any questions. Thanks, Damian.

2014 Specialized Rumor Comp. Medium sized. Lady’s geo. Fits me well and I’ve loved riding it, but I have a new trail bike and my wife who I actually bought it for hardly ever used it.

Exactly 300 miles of use (thanks Strava). Just replaced the bottom bracket. Has a Hope QR seat clamp. Otherwise pretty much as original spec. Brilliant brilliant trail bike. A used off road bike, so despite being clean and crash/ding free there are still signs of muck here and there and a few marks (particularly rubbing on the cranks from my shoes). Forks and shock feel great.

These were £2200 new, vgc and a lot more nimble than you'd expect from a 29er and a lot more capable than you'd expect from a 110mm bike. £650 for lfgssfolks before it's offered elsewhere for more. No pedals (apart from the cheap plastic ones it was supplied with). I'm near Maidstone in Kent, pick up preferred.

Officially a women's geo bike, but I'm a 5'9" "blurk" and couldn't fault the fit. Can be supplied with a women specific saddle or male one if you prefer. Any questions, please ask. Specification etc can be found here:

My Coeur d' Acier:

And here it is at the midway coffee/cake stop last weekend.

I love it.

No experience of the Wessex CX Swindon course on here then?! I'll just turn up and give it my best then. I'll let y'all know if night time cross is an experience worth repeating...

I've entered the Rd 5 of the Wessex CX evening series in Swindon this Thursday. Anyone know anything about these events, specifically what the course is like? Looking forward to a new experience CX racing in the dark....

Would be nice to be able to commute on the bike! Average ride distance of 37km is popular. That's what my average was too (2015 YTD).

Dat saddle!

Thanks George. A hundred rear mechs breathed a sigh of relief then.

Not too muddy then? Obviously can't be too muddy for the CX purists, but you know what I mean...

Haven't been able to escape work so will miss out tonight. Not weather related abandonment, honest! Gutted. Good luck to the rest of you.

XC weather is saying light rain only. Where are these biblical forecasts from? I expect to see the shopper on the line regardless of conditions now Damo. Would be a shame for good weather to spoil the spectacle.

Results from Rd3 are in. Over the moon with 4th Vet.
