Pm incoming on 32s

I have a trailer, it's a two seater Burley Bee collected from near London Bridge, but I'd need it back by Monday morning for the nursery run.

What's the bartape of choice for the wider bars these days, something to fit 48cm cowchippers?

And this just makes me want to get the Wolverine even more now. Time to save the pennies unless someone here is looking to offload a medium-ish one.

As per heading, longshot but if anyone is looking to part ways with their Soma Wolverine that will fit a 5"8ish riding then let me know. Ideally a V3/4 with TA compatibility but the latter isn't a deal breaker.

Does anyone know where I can get 1l of Shimano mineral oil in London?

@user71349 Any saddle tool rolls going?

Wave M among my slow cycling brethren. Managed to get 20 miles in yesterday, my longest ride since 2019

That was one on my radar as well, and cheaper than lightroom. @greentricky thanks for the heads-up, will look tonight

What's a good alternative to PS Lightroom? I cancelled my Abobe subscription because the cost was too much and the only thing I wanted was Lightroom for organising my 1000s of family photos and quick edits for printing.
What's a good alternative to Lightroom that won't be so spendy?

Yeah, saw the profile, the longest climb looks to be along Epping Forest. Also noticed the 60 and 100 ride share the same route up to Chipping Ongar so I might peel off if I'm feeling crap.
Also, anyone got their start times yet? Less than three weeks out and not heard anything from them.

How many punctures plugged on a tubeless tyre before you replace it? Got a pair that's been plugged three times on front with lots or smaller punctures that sealed up but wonder if it times to replace

Alternatives to Pirelli Cinturato Gravel H for mix of road/canal/Thames Path out to Windsor before I plump for the Pirelli's?

Testing out position, this seems comfortable but how far am I'm off the bdhu ideal? I'm will to err on the side of discomfort to aesthetic pleasantness

Need a pair of Shimano pad spacers that will for 105 r7020 disc calipers. Collection in an around SE1 area ideally.

Top tube bag, something along the lines of restrap for storing food and gels and other little goodies for rides like the Ride100 that I'm woefully not ready for

Bugger! Just got grx shifters to buy trashed 105s. If only I'd waited.

It's pretty basic cables from uberbike, make sure I paired with the correct barbs and have used on other bikes without issue, but that was all with the older style shifters/nuts.
Currently the game is less than a mm from flush, I daren't go further as I don't want to blow the £££ I had to spend to replace the 105 that cracked on me.
Will I have a problem with it not being flush or is this fine and I should get on with the joys of bleeding the system?

Defo no olive inside. I triple checked that as I was paranoid.
These are grx 600 shifters. Held the hose in while I wound in the bolt initial by hand till I could any more (about 3mm out from flush) then turned with spanner till I went beyond finger tight and had the start pushing to get it in further. Absent of a crows foot I don't know what to do to make sure I'm not overcranking it

Ufff, stocked at Toolstation/Screwfix and the like? Or does anyone local-ish to SE1 have one I can borrow

So a gap is ok? On my 10cm spanner there is already resistance where I have to give it a little more nudge to move it.

Have a torque wrench, but how do I use if for a nut like this?

Ok, don't want to brake this like I did the old shifters. Screwing this on, and there's a fair bit of resistance now. Cant tell if it's up the 5nm limit. Does this have to sit flush with shifter or can I stop here? Worried about cranking down and splitting it, can't afford another mishap
