Not long home, thanks for showing me round guys. After you left I did more or less the same route again, only with more getting lost. I liked blairadam, it's fun as it is and you can tell i'd be even better when (if) it's dry.

I'm gonna be in trouble when the mrs gets home and sees the state of the bike in the living room though!

ZZ whats the lowdown on V brake pads? The set I have ie two pads one pair are 60g. The arms plus pads are 168, what can I save?

When I did the Fat, I replaced the original brake blocks (66g per pair) with KCNC brake block holders and some Clarks pads I had in the spares box - KCNC holders + plus Clarks pads = 32g per pair.

So £16 a wheel to save 34g :? Might have gotten a bit carried away there.

So your arms are 108g per pair! Nice! What are they?

My SD5s (without noodle) were 131g per pair.

Cane creek direct curve 3, no noodle required

I'll keep the mod in the back pocket for noo, I'll wait till I'm chasing grams time to get the project back up and running.
