lol I hear you; I’d be intrigued to know what percent of their claims come from racing. I’d have thought it would actually be pretty low but obviously not if they’ve implemented this.

30% for crashing in April but not broken down.

Most people I know would quickly swap back to the traditional parts bin build for crit racing if their £5k+ bikes weren't covered..

Congrats on the 2% saving

Closer to 60% but as noted above, can toggle to full cover when needed, if the main gripe is full cover for occasional travel.

But sounds like I need to login and check my terms..

Laka are now charging extra for race/travel coverage

Interesting but not suprised, when asked why I downgraded to the lower tier cover, I said I was fed up paying a big premium for bros wanting to crit race their dream bikes at Spillingdon...

As above, helicopter tape / 3M 8671HS

Get a few different widths and you'll cover a few bikes for much less than a single kit.

Bit suprised these Radavist approved shorts have no interest @amey

£60 posted for the weekend

*these are newer lightweights

PDW metal muduards 45mm - £45

Pics, conditions, black or silver, have the stays been shortened (if that's a thing with these)?

Anyone have any spare plants they’d like to donate?

Suspect it wouldn't be economically viable and trains would cost more than shipping a pot plant.. but anyone who can collect from Surbiton is welcome to a Carolina Reaper, don't need/don't have room for 5 along with the other varieties.

They're all maybe a little big to cycle into the city.

OrNot lightweight Mission Short
Color: Obsidian
Size: 32 (more a 33/34 but read the size guide and make up your own mind).
Price: £65 posted.
Condition: Excellent, worn twice.

Failed to comprehend the size guide and these are too big. Have now smuggled in another pair. I think they are excellent- short and fitted, cool when riding hard, no chaffing. Better than Chrome, Ripton and Swrve but your milage may vary.

For reference, I wear 32 in Swrve, Chrome and Ripton, 30 in Ornot.

I'm here for inappropriate use of disc wheels

Sort of comedians that don’t crack you up >>

Essentially i'm trying to move a lot of my evening routine such as gym/training into a pre work routine but with other stuff i'm struggling on time and energy.

As someone who is both really quite lazy and drinks a lot of coffee, the Sage precision brewer has been the one. Picked up a barely used one for very little. You can set it up the night before, if that helps with the morning routine.

... But I'd just start with using that Bialetti.

Thanks @Chopsicle and others. It's a generous returns offer, have placed a like for like other brands order (small/small), weary of the fashion for long legs.

As feedback, I think it'd be handy, where possible, if the model information matched the size chart.
e.g.

Studio Model: Height: 186cm, chest: 93cm, inner leg: 87cm Wears size: Small

Isn't as useful when the size chart is chest/waist/hips.

talking of exposure sirius, does anyone know if it fits in a trace mount?

Nope, bigger diameter light

Just watched this and now I want a swept back bar city cruiser...

Here for this , have started to dip into the other videos..

👋

Albion size chart has me at the lower end of Medium in the cargo bibs... Am Small in every other brand (Assos Mille, Endura Pro Sl, dhb Aeron..).

What are others experience across brands? Listen to the chart or the niggle that says Small is the way..

Time to squeeze some wider tyres on, will it fit 37s?

Suspect so, only went as far as 32c GKs on mine.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking! Is the Trace worth a punt?

Fab light but you'll want at least the Sirius for occasionally seeing in the dark.

But there is also the Boost, it might sit somewhere in the middle.

All have plenty of easy mounting options.

I've had some issues over the years but always had them rectified at no cost.

Is there a specific type of p-clip that is best

Pad this out? https://76projects.com/products/gopro-style-light-brackets?variant=43982267056344

CF and no bolts

Assume you're running a large saddle bag on there and the seat or post are out... hence the question. Have the same bike, clamping something solid to the skinny stays could make me nervous.

'1. a zip tie style mount, that you could put something grippy under along with frame protection could work.

e.g.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264353053581?_ul=GB&var=0
You could get something svelter 3d printed to match the tube shape.

'2. a custom clamp based on tube diameter with something grippy under to avoid slipping down or needing to clamp real tight.

And then the already mentioned holder..

This was also a long way of saying I don't think anyone makes something ready to buy.. the 76 project clamp with a shim might be closest..

Can someone recommend a mount for a Exposure TraceR that will fit on the seatstay of a Canyon Endurace?

CF or Al and are there any bolts?

Ive done much more z2 this year and conversely really enjoyed some of the 90 minute sessions 🙃. Even did some with no music or tv, just sort of meditated.

Did build up slowly, adding 15 mins each session.

As it's flat bar, probably perfectly OK and more than any of us really need...

... But saying that, it's double the price and depending on what's being built, SLX 12 speed with 11-51 is £325 and verified not shit..
