Fresh Goods Friday 708 – The Bendy Bus Edition

62.00 euros for  a set of handguards when, y’know gloves exist seems a bit; cart before horse.

Brake lever grips?

Bar ends to protect your hands?

Sincere non-snarky question- has anyone found a glove that fends off gorse and bramble thorns without being a hellish heat swamp for their hands?

I love the ease of use of Dynaplug but availability of refills is awful.

Currently showing as out of stock everywhere including the Dynaplug UK site and no due date.

Both links in the article above are out of stock as well btw

I could spend £25 on a pack of 5 on Amazon but that’s more than a complete entry level kit (if you can find one that is in stock in the UK)

I know, I know,  not enough capitals and spellings for a singletrack standard whinge. 😅

has anyone found a glove that fends off gorse and bramble thorns without being a hellish heat swamp…

Some Japanese Keirin gloves have carbon knuckle armour. Trouble is, Japanese hands are far smaller than mine. So that’s not a useful option.

Some Fox mx gloves do as well.

Hand guards! Get some decent gloves and man/woman up!

Got enough stuff on my handle bars already, gears, brakes, bell, dropper post lever, light fitting (when required). Those handguards look like they were built by a bloke in a shed who is into post-modernist industrial design, ugly!

Appears to be a bit of hate for the handguards, I may get some for my ebike

Anyone with an inkling as to where and when I can get new dynaplug inserts? Short of picking them up in France in a couple of weeks they seem to be totally missing from the country.

Weid how no-one has them instock now – maybe ask Madison why there’s a shortage customercare@madison.co.uk
