Me. Neither, but happy to see Johnny's exage and learn something new

If it's standard Shimano STI, there will be no indexing on the left lever/front mech. It's just free flow. It's hard to diagnose the problem without seeing it in action

I was brought up with the rule that you never fully pump up brand new tyres. Pump them up to 2/3rds pressure, do a shortish (say 15 mile ride) and at that point they'll have flexed themselves into a secure position. Then you can pump them up to the hard pressure Don't know if it actually makes...

Have to agree with you on the 7800 kit. Really nicely finished too

Sexy bike. Me likes.

I don't think it comes across as a scam, maybe because I've seen the same post on a FB group under his real name. The problem is, we all have a variety of wants and where do you start.? If I was offering advice, I'd say advertise the meaty stuff normally with pics and prices and then later try...

Always wondered why there was a difference between road and MTB chains. I assumed they were interchangeable, and the difference was just marketing hype

Drum up front, coaster at the back.

Sure you want G40s for a pubber? I ask because G40s are one of the first grey clinchers that Mavic did and I'm guessing there won't be many around. I understand if you want to build something special, period correct and all that, but it just sounds you want some grey rims for a clunker. You'll...

The one big thing that would put me off disks is the cost of the STI levers with built in reservoir. What might seem a fairly minor crash could end up costing £xxxxx

Great photos and scenery with cracking weather

Get a cheap 25.4 stem from the MTB side of this forum. Bet you can get something for a fiver and use your black bars with a single shim

Just a tip..... steering wheel and seat are on the wrong side 😉

the Weinmann Carrera brakes were nothing like those 500s or centrepulls. They were class stuff, comparable to the best out there. They were often mated with a combination of Simplex gears, Stronglight chainsets and Maillard hubs and branded Spidel. i think the UK Raleigh Weinmann team at...

aye, but there's always that final 50 metre 20% ramp up to where the campervan is sited ;)

only for a double, so she wont be able to make use of the triple chainset. That won't matter if you are riding flat terrain

be careful though if you are fitting tyres and tubes with low pressures. Low pressures and tubes can easily lead to pinch punctures should she ride over a stone or through a pothole. If your wheels can take tubeless (I assume not), low pressures aren't a problem

Thanks fella, good spot, cheers

Saracen bottle cage please Pm me PayPal details please

Athletics will be the highlight for me And hope to catch something by accident, which I wouldn't normally watch , but get hooked in. Last time it was rugby 7s and table tennis
