Nah, you can set the limit screw so it won't go on to the tiny cog. she'll never miss it unless she starts promuting down the big hills!

8 and 9 speed cassettes are the same width but different spacing, a 7 is the same spacing as an 8 but one cog less. On a 7/8/9 hub you use a spacer for a 7 speed instead of the 8th cog.
Can you put a spacer instead of the 8th cog? Depending on your cassette it might be riveted together and you won't be able to.
Would need to adjust the limit screw on the RD so you don't shift off the cassette by accident.
Or just adjust the limit screw so you can't use the 8th cog... Effect is the same as making it 7 speed.

Hi!
I'm interested in @rogan 's Bob Jackson here
for velodrome use and neither of us know if the mudguard eyelets would be an issue at LVV. Do these count as braze ons?
Can anyone spot any other issues I might have? (Obvs no bottle cage attached)
Thanks!

Did the locust Tshirt go?/have a bump/

Awkward loud giggle at work moment.
Hour made!

I had trouble just after the change,can't remember what I was using. But last time I changed it I used the laptop and it worked fine.
Still can't animate my avatar though.

The forum will hang for me on most pages when I first click a thread or next page. The progress bar goes about 25% across then stops. I have to click again and then it works fine. Sometimes doesn't load though and I get the 504 message.

You're asking the week before payday, too!

I also don't drive, so once I have my own bike I'll be taking most of what's been mentioned above - riding to HH with a set of wheels on my back and train to LVV with the bike in bits to go via the underground. I rarely travel light.

Clear skies and very warm in KT, took the boys over the park after school for a good sweaty run around! Big anvil shaped thunder cloud growing to the north though.

I got given a mouthfull from a pcso for doing a rolling dismount on the path along Chiswick highroad. If you know the area, I came off the road and swung my leg over as I came off the zebra crossing outside GAME/Paperchase. Pulled out the store keys and heard the pcso shout and run towards me from 100 odd meters away. This is 8AM, nobody around and certainly wasn't endangering anyone.
Pcso threatened a fine, but then backed down with a "If I ever see you do that again...."

Not quite my point.
There is buying nice stuff for your Sunday best bike or whatever, that I can understand. It's a show piece and you'd really enjoy riding it.
I just can't get my head around "thinks about racing - buys £2k wheels to try out cat4" I literally don't understand the desire to piss money away like that.

Sorted.

Ah, is this is no longer a sale thread I feel I can comment...

My mate bought them as he wanted to get into racing

Amazing. And there are people progressing out of cat4 on aluminium bikes worth 25% of the cost of these wheels alone.

If you earn enough to pay council tax, at least.

That was good! Would have been a lot more comfortable with cleats (Wouldn't have said that a year ago!) so I'll hire shoes next time, or just buy some appropriate cleats for my existing shoes instead of trainers and cages.

I used to take the camper down to camber sands, close by and lovely sunrise in the morning.

Are there lockers to throw my stuff into?

2nd dibs locust if @Kuku_Penthouse falls through.

I'm looking to get a small frame, which generally seem to have a degree or two slacker head tubes than the bigger sizes, would you not choose a different rake fork for a large frame than you would a small frame?
The sworks venge has a 73° head tube and a 45mm rake fork, and afaik Cavendish uses a road fork... If I get a Dolan pc in my size it will also have a 73° headtube, so why wouldn't I choose a road fork?

This question relates to speed wobble, btw

@dimi3 have you got plans for nocturne fixed crit again next year?
@HoKe are you going to be too busy?
Who is Paul Evans on here?
