Kask lid:
Well made, fits perfectly and light.
Spot on.
Conti Top Contact 2 folding tyres:
On my wife’s AWOL.
Survived a few routes through the slate quarries.
Feel a lot tougher than Marathon Supremes, but heavier and a bit draggier.
Good mixed use tyre.
Spesh Phenom saddle:
Very happy I’ve finally found a saddle that fits and I won’t cry over if it gets soaked or nicked.
Still comfy on longer rides.
Delighted with it, tbh.
Aldi Cree lights offroad:
The Magicshine type ones.
Cheap, work perfectly, guarantee.
Been used in some filthy conditions over winter and survived a few knocks, very impressed.
Dynamo lights on the road bike:
A complete convert.
The last time I had a dynamo it was driven from the side of the tyre and dragged like an election campaign.
The modern equivalent is like driving behind a car headlight.
And not having to faff with batteries is just one less hassle.
Great stuff.
Wellgo R120B pedals:
SPD one side, small pinned platform on the other.
Grease port.
Excellent for mixed use.
MSR XKG EX stove.
Had it for ages, still works perfectly, every time.
Give it the odd clean, it’s a bit noisy but it’s bombproof and works with pretty much anything.
Most of this stuff was recommended by posters on here, btw.
🙂
