    Today's Ride

    Worn out just getting these to all fit on the rack! 🥱

    Bontrager Race

    That's a serious lever hanging out that seat tube and I'm sure someone that tall is going to weigh a few kilos more than average! Glad it's a Bonty rather than a pace! Nice frame and seat post.

    Sold Stormy sea canvas

    Fantastic painting - what a talent! That sky captures so much of a stormy day.

    Kona Seatpost Clamp 97 Kilauea

    I also bought a 97 Kilauea (on here) without this clamp and also measured at 29.8 - this is the official size and kona originals often listed on eBay for lots of money in this size. I saw a Kona clamp being listed at 30.0 more fairly priced, bought it assuming it would fit which it...

    Merlin Elevator

    Possibly just a function of frame size / clearances / geometry / tube bends all conspiring? I'm sure I could get I've it though! 😉

    Merlin Elevator

    Shoot me down in flames but I was looking at it thinking something just isn't right, I should really like that frame...... It's the chain stays - they're (just) not in-line with the down tube and make it look a bit broken. Sure I wouldn't notice that when riding it but at that money I wouldn't dare!

    I'm going to try the 'steampunk' defence for my next car MOT! 😂

    Headset for 1" Threadless Fork in 1 1/8" Frame?

    Fortunately it's a Hope hub so I've pulled the free hub off the wheel and will secure the cassette to a bench (with a hole for the free hub) and see if my lockring tool will survive!!! I'll get pictures either way.

    Headset for 1" Threadless Fork in 1 1/8" Frame?

    Now have bigger problems to solve first.... ...a truly b'tard tight cassette lockring I've inherited! 😬

    Headset for 1" Threadless Fork in 1 1/8" Frame?

    Thanks both. I'm not wedded to the fork but in every other respect it's perfect for the bike. It's a 26" P2 with mid rack mounts which I've not encountered before.

    Cheap is fine by me 👍

    Headset for 1" Threadless Fork in 1 1/8" Frame?

    Thanks @Imlach - will have a look. Didn't know if there was a no shim / weird headset out there?

    Any recommendations for this unholy marriage appreciated!

    Folders! Foldable bicycles, minivelos and demontables

    Looks like it should clean up very nicely - great save!

    Why? Just why?

    Like the 'Thru-Bolt' axles - touch of class!

    Why? Just why?

    Wheel balancing obviously! 😂 Confession time: I was setting up gears for a friend of the better half yesterday (misaligned FD was worst culprit). When spinning up the back wheel in the stand noticed how out of balance the back wheel was (tyre seated correctly). I had a fiddle with the...
