That's reassuring to hear, I don't do much on the fly routing, mainly following routes from the web/strava and then follow the map.

I just wonder whether i'd be inclined to go off the route with the Roam vs the Bolt.

Compared to the Roam.

That's what I was worried about, going off the beaten track etc.

If you do go off track, could you not just get your phone out and recalculate the route? Or is it not that simple?

If you had the choice of either, would you go for the roam or bolt?

Any idea why Black Sheep Clothing are so bloody expensive? They're on par with Assos, but don't seem to have the same level of technical/R&D prowess - only pretty designs.

I quite like some of their collections, but it's very hard justifying anything at their prices.

Just how bad is the BOLT for mapping/navigation? The internet is filled with opposing views on whether it's good enough: on the one hand - the screen is too small and there are no street names/the chevrons are crap; on the other hand - navigation is fine as long as you don't want anything too technical, you can use your phone if need be.

Is it worth the extra £100?

Want, don't need, glws

How much was the paint job BTW?

Think I saw both these bike in the flesh yesterday, Rapha Soho - looked amazing!

Looks ace.

If anyone has a ridiculous amount of play in their sram hrd levers, you need to replace/clean out the master cylinder.

I've got about 2-3cm of fore aft play at the Lever tip, and from all my researching it looks like the master cylinder needs replacing. There are a few YouTube videos online of how to do it and why it happens.

EDIT:
Replaces/re-greased/rebuilt master cylinder with silicon grease, also cleaned out all the gunk on the push rod and rebled the system.

On initial testing, brakes feel as good as they've ever done (I bought them second hand), so only time will tell whether they stay that way.

Dibs white torm jersey, pending some more pics - PM now

Sometimes weight weenies comes through strong...

That's some extreme saddle bar drop

wow, thank you! Found myself watching the old spurcycle Kickstarter video - i'd always wondered what frame he was riding.
The wonders of LFGSS...

Anyone recognise this head tube badge? Best shot i could get

I saw someone the other morning in what looked like a light waffle knit Jersey, anyone know if its an actual model? Or just an old Rapha Jersey, but I couldn't see a white stripe on the arm

That's really lovely, the ti seatpost is great.
I think the frame pump is on backwards, I think the soft rubber bit is supposed to be at the headtube.

Anyone know when RCC club rides are back on?

happy to respect dibs but still waiting for PM!

Best backpack in the world, I've had mine for about 5 years and use it almost daily. Bump and GLWS

Sure thing

Evening all,

Want to shift these wheels, as they've been sitting in the shed for ages and I'm realistically not going to get around to fixing them. One spoke on the rear wheel is broken (the silver part of the spoke that's replaceable, not the red part that's proprietary to the wheel).

They're the 2012 model, if you're looking for the replacement spoke - which can be bought a crank bros dealer (so I'm told by the crank bros tech dept.)

Very light, pretty cool looking, internals need some TLC and grease, could also do with a clean.

6 bolt disc mount - should be able to find skewers if you want.

Collection in N. London near Kings Cross.

They'll be thrown by Sunday eve/Monday if no-one wants them.

Cheers

None, slammed

Does stack in someway negate a longer reach?
I've found a deal on a bike I'm after, but the sizing is slightly longer than my current bike.

New bike has 3mm more reach, 20mm more stack, and an 11mm longer effective top tube.

If anyone's moved to a bike with a taller stack but slightly longer reach, did you find it massively different in terms of fit?

This is lovely, where is this from?
