On the Galfer rotor it says “patented” anyone know what this refers to?
I have been very pleased with my Chris King/Peaty’s valves. They haven’t clogged or bent yet and a refresh kit consisting of rubbers and valves can be purchased. I suspect that the bendy bit of the valve is stronger than others as I haven’t bent one yet!

I have been waiting impatiently all day, even began to think it wasn't coming.

Now, all together "How much?"

Surely tyre sealant would be delivered by Stan-ta Claus? 

IGMC, (and don't call me Shirley).

No details or mention of what looks like a "flip up" light on the rear of that Canyon helmet?
Am I missing something or are you getting lazy?

Most modern forks are still worse than that Lyrik, it was awesome. Not just very high performing but also super easy to set up. Absolutely shat on the original Charger forks that replaced it, even now I don't think they're as good personally. If you could get a modern Lyrik chassis with the MiCo damper and a coil, that'd do me.

On the other hand they did weigh as much as a council slab.

Single crown fork, 20mm axle - what a novel and sensible idea

Gave up waiting for a reply about the light on the back for the Canyon helmet, went and found a proper review on Bike Radar. Apparently it is a magnetic light that Canyon make specifically for this helmet.
