amazing! your collection of bikes is probably my favourite on this forum.

always preferred the yellow rhp but I have to say this one is very good

I am not sure whether 105 is an option but I think this Tiagra sub compact is still for sale

@dots perhaps

basically the same here. I feel like we are so reliant on Brook and Root that when they don't perform, we look quite fragile.

some good moments today though, Pope surviving that review with the ball pitching outside leg and then the inside edge miraculously missing the stumps. excellent stuff. Sri Lanka somehow smiling through it all, but maybe they were confident that the wickets would come soon enough

good price. do the derailleurs list the model number on the back? would be useful for potential buyers

that has made me feel positive about the future of this England test side

Root's dismissal smacked of ''when you let the intrusive thoughts win''. he looked like he could easily bat his way to 200 but then came his moment of madness.

I am loving what we are seeing from Gus.

oh and bring back Zak. very much missed.

I have seen a few varieties of stepped ferule so it might just be a case of trying different ones until you get one that holds the cable in place and gives you a nice line.

took me a while to get the set up of mine feeling OK. a wise friend who is on this forum gave me some advice about it. something about getting the text on the saddle level and it being a bit of hammock saddle that you ''sit in''. worth persevering with imho, a beautiful looking saddle and I find mine really comfortable too.

woof, wearing sunglasses inside on work calls this morning. an emotional day. hope he can get over that missed caught and bowled chance. the fairytale ending slipping through his fingers... but still, 704 ain't bad!

also, this bike is cool. cross check vibe. GLWS!

@Nef

good work, Chaley. meanwhile I haven't ridden mine in four months but summer is upon us so....soon

thanks so much! will PM

Also, I had meant to add that the chainrings are small, 40t and below, so something with a nice curve to suit that would be great. Maybe something mountain bike-y. Thank you!

Good morning

I am in the middle of a project and have realised that I do not have a front derailleur with a wide enough cage for an eight speed chain. I guess 6/7/8 speed all work but, having had a quick look at front derailleurs, the elegant Shimano Claris FD-R2030-B has stolen my heart.

I was wondering if anyone has one of these derailleurs (or something very similar) lying around in their parts bin. I am on the hunt for something that is:

-for a triple
-bottom pull
-wide enough for an eight speed chain
-band-on
-for a 28.6mm seat tube or that could be shimmed down to fit
-suitably rad for a bodge-y gravel build
-cheap

Please can you let me know if you have anything that fits the bill? I am based in the North of England so would also require postage.

Thanks in advance!

excellent bicycle and I miss the time when people used to build their bikes like this. glws

I love this forum and all the kind and generous people that make it great. Long live LFGSS and thank you x

I love a Rossin! I took mine in a bit of a weird direction recently and our projects share a few similarities. what is the situation with the quill and the bars? have you gone all in with the brute strength approach?

lovely and a really good price! good luck with your sale and hope the situation with your back improves.

28mm for £33.99 if that is within budget

edit: sorry, Leshaches, responded to the wrong comment

contact nishiki and see about that lifetime guarantee!

in all seriousness, sorry to hear about the crash and I hope you fared better than the bike.

always been a fan of that groupset and sure someone local will snap it up

love this colour! what a result
