I just use a tiny bit of contact cement (tin from Amazon).

For removal I take off the bezel. From the under side I get a guitar pick / blunt knife and can pry between the bezel and insert. If I use too much adhesive I’ll dip a cotton bud in some isopropyl and dab between the bezel and insert, that softens it a bit.

Thanks. I ordered a complete headset/bearing direct from Acros in my rush before doing research over Easter weekend.

It’s about the same price from Kinetic Bearings anyways. I’ll just have to wait a bit longer.

Anyone have a spare Acros upper headset bearing?

Mines for some apparent reason has seized up on my 2 year old canyon ultimate. I believe it’s a 44x35x5,5 bearing.

Just to keep me running until my headset order from Germany gets through/delivered in a weeks time.

Yep, I’ve been running the Raceware wahoo and GoPro mount for the H31 on my CP10 cockpit.

Embarrassingly clipped the newish bike lane curbs on Park Lane/Hyde Park and went flying whilst going home in the evening on Christmas Day.

Destroyed my front wheel and my dignity.

After my farsports wheelset took a catastrophic crash on Christmas Day. It's time for an upgrade.

The bracelet has solid end links.

It’s similar to a Omega Seamaster bracelet having fully articulate 5 piece links.

Having sized it now, it’s very comfortable and will remain on the watch. I really wasn’t expecting this and was going to put it on their nato that I added as an additional extra.

New watch day!!!
Just took delivery of this Maen diver which will be my new daily work watch. Met my requirements of a small/thin diver.

• It was a surprise the bracelet is screw link rather than push pins as suggested on reviews. I’ll keep it on the bracelet for time being rather than the included custom rubber or nato.
  

The new 40mm case does actually have a larger crystal as it press fits into that low profile bezel unlike the SKX series where the crystal is press fit into the case.

I want to get one but I’m waiting for modders to play around with theirs so I know what double dome sapphires are on the market.

Got the Veloflex Masters from Bike24 during a sale a few weeks back.

I’ve only rode Vitorria’s current Corsas and the tread on the rear wheel would wear out by 200km.

It became an expensive habit so went back to back to GP4000s. From what I understand the Corsa Controls has the same rubber compound as the Corsas but just thicker. May give them a go if I ever find a deal on them.

Was curious about this wider tyre trend so I went for the widest tyre that would clear my Canyon frame.

Purchased these 35mm file tread tyres with a very long name: Vee Tyre Co’s ‘London Road Gravel Commuter’ for £30 a set from PlanetX.

To be honest I wasn’t expecting much at this price point. I’ve been using these for my daily total 22km commute through London (as a key worker) in the past three months. I run them at about 50PSI and I gotta say they’re really comfortable and they feel as robust as Panaracer Pasela PTs. They’re slower than the GP4000s I normally run but I’m not racing through London and after those double shifts I appreciate the added comfort.

Did also pick up some Veloflex Masters in 28 for €46 euro for the set last week. And I gotta say they were the easiest tyres I’ve fitted to my tubeless ready wheels. Hopefully they’ll last longer than the Vittoria Corsas.

Second dibs on no.7 - Ultegra cassette

Take a look Colarebshort length straps.

It took me about a fortnight to self regulate. I used the app ‘Toolwatch’ to see my changes.

They’re emailing the ballot results today.

For those who have tyre fitting difficulties: Get some Schwalbe Levers.
Have a plethora of levers and these fit any tyre to any rim (inc. tubeless) with ease.
No more sore hands.

Damn too late on that, damn notifications got turned off.
Thanks for the message anyways.

My bum is still looking for that s15.

Looking for a Canyon VCLS 2.0 seatpost (or Ergon equivalent) to accompany my Canyon ultimate and my bottom.

I had fixed levers on my thru axles. Replaced with generic hex thru axles from the orient for under £30 (a set).
Note: Make sure the thread pitch are the same as the ones you already own.

Anyone have any experience with Shimano L03A resin pads for Shimano road disc brakes?
Don’t think they’re readily available in the uk but are 40% more wear resistant than L02A resin pads.

How are people mounting lights to the aerocockpit?

Can’t stop noticing the SS lightning bolt style S on the left chest area.

2nd dibs on Aliante

Bottom right is part of Shimano’s hydraulic brake bleed kit.
Have no idea what the bottom left is.

Finally got my brompton back from storage.
And it’s time to update it as it’s an early pre 2000 model. Everythings stock so I’ll be putting new brake calipers and I’ll need a new wheel set (rims are worn).
Will this 3-speed wheel set from SJSCycles fit?
https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/wheelswheelsets/sjsc-for-brompton-3-speed-super-light-wheel-set-black/
Or is the spacing or axle diameter different. (I remember the front wheel used 13mm wheel nuts).
