Indeed, my 800 is running the old firmware but it won't live forever, looking at alternatives. :/

Google isn't giving me an answer. Can you turn off Auto-Zero on a Garmin 520?

Snaps from a long weekend in Edinburgh.

Thanks, I assume the novice Skill sessions are first come first served?

Don't know enough about FSA, do they do a track chainset that this would work with? On sale in 165mm. Might be of interest to someone. £270 (after £5 off code used).

They good great head on but agree, not so great there.

Indeed, the entry level Hover version. Surprisingly I quite like them looks wise and I think the S-Works Aerofly version with 25mm rise look immense. They used them on the 2016 Red Hook builds.

This frame was for sale as I never got along with it and built a sensible fixed commuter instead.
Got sellers remorse and it's been built up for Herne Hill and now has a setback seatpost, riser road bars and from a spin around the block it's a much better fit.

If I can borrow a Garmin I'll do a Powertap hub vs Stages GPX Left crank fixed riding comparison. Watch out DC rainmaker..

Totally agree with the sentiment.

I've now done 3 half day training sessions with my club doing drills and races. Should have another coming up soon. I'll see how the first Tracks skills session plays out and go from there, there isn't a massive rush. I'm sure there are a few road race habits to iron out.

Thanks, great to know.

As I can't make the accreditation on the 4th, I would assume that the Track Skills Sessions are worth going to in advance of doing the accreditation.

Want to get myself training and hopefully racing but there appears to be only 1 'Training Accreditation' session in the calendar and on RiderHQ, 4 Feb. Expect more to come?

As it was just bearings they did it themselves, it was £57.50 @ Sigma Sport in Kingston for parts and labour.

Paligap are the official service partner in the UK, who charge £52 + parts + initial postage.

I might use Paligap next time as it'll probably need a good once over.

Here's a video for doing the work on the road version.

I looked, it's apparently similar to the road SL+ but in the end, took it to my local shop.

Thanks, didn't want to go full tilt on it till I was sure. Will get a torque wrench on it tomorrow.

Trying to fit a Stages Rival crank arm onto a SRAM S300 Courier crank.

The original courier LH arm tightens by hand.
The Rival still has play when hand tightened.

I need to buy a 1/2 inch socket set for my torque wrench tomorrow.
I don't want to go ape with it now but it strikes me as odd.

Could I be missing something? I've only ever handled the S300 but maybe this is normal for other SRAM chainsets and when I get a big torque wrench on it, it'll be fine(?).

Wasn't very clear was I, I got it from Wex but all official dealers have the offer. They seem to be selling out on quite a few sites although they should hopefully get stock before Jan 7 when the double cashback expires.

If anyone shoots m43 there are some great promos on at the mo. Just purchased a Panasonic GX80 body for, in theory, £232 after Quidco + Panasononic double Caschback.

Thanks, I've pinged this email address to the relevant committee member.

We're putting it to our club committee to make a big donation but you'll have nailed it before they event meet at this rate!!

And be seen in public with a +15 degree stem! tbh it was in the spares bucket, will move to -10/6/4 if more height needed. Had Cinelli Pista on before so it seems I'm going between extremes.

I was meant to sell this but got remorse and now building it up for HHV.
Trying out Spesh Hover riser bars because my back can't deal with slammage :'(

Yup, they made it e123, quickest I've been around there but the group was huge.
The riding wasn't bad per say but too many people, did have to take to the grass twice mind.

For the effort of racing there, think I'll go to HHV and get my accreditation instead.
