What did the postman bring you today?

Nothing terribly exciting today…

… for the turbo. An 18 incher from screwfix, bigger than I thought, glad I didn’t go for the 24 incher now!

This weeks been a bit special for me.

I got

which are reaplcing these
because all my kit is black and these simply don’t go.

because I’m not sure about this

so one will be going back

and finally an impulse buy

A knard. The parcel is Huuuuuuuuuge…now all i need is a wheel to fit it to….

Not today but yesterday…

The aforementioned t-shirts that binners *made* me buy.
Ti bolts for my stem, cos im a tart like that.
Renthal Chainring
Gusset Bling Slink Halflink chain, again, cos im a tart like that.
Shimano AM45s

….and Monday he brought me some as new XTR cranks and bb, cos im a t(you get the idea) and an SDG Bel Air, all off the classifeds.

Happy Tom 🙂

Bioflex carbon saddle, a 5:10 t-shirt, and a set of swimming goggles for the little one.

New shorts, got a pretty good deal:

Got a few things over a few days, but got this to treat myself before an upcoming trip to Les Gets (to be honest the REverb is a warranty replacement I’ve been waiting since November for!)

Some Endura Humvee shorts from Rutland for £38.00..well pleased and my cannondale lefty stem has just come back from welders..now 80mm with 10 degree rise instead of 100mm with -5 degrees

Brake Pads and a bash Guard 🙂

Where from? I like the intrepid gear I had a £10 off £50 spend at Cycle Surgery and then Topcashback for another 5%, ended up being £65 instead of £80, so not that good a deal but they are nice!

some of these today.:

the size is right and they’re comfy, so i’ve just ordered some of these:

This. I’ve seen the future and it might involve less bike riding for a week or so.

A new back wheel for my TT bike.

BOOM! Bank account please 🙂

more antibiotics 🙁

This week: Revelation 29 RL and Nukeproof 800mm flat bar from CRC, Smorgasbord, Chunky Monkey and SS kit from On-One, XT cranks and Flux saddle from the classifieds (thanks boxfish). Due next week: sLX brakes from
Merlin, Superstar / Flow wheels and, best of all, a Singular Buzzard.

Proper excited.

my forks back from tf tuned. now i just need to build my wheels and im set for the summer.

A pair of Time Atac XS carbon pedals off eBay for £13, advertised as spares, when I opened them up they had new bearings but worn bushings, £7.31 on two bushings from Simply bearings later they’re like new.. 😀

Yesterday got a HUGE 56t chainring for the TT machine.

Today got a pair of Onza Ibex Skinwall tyres for the Inbred. They look the right flippin’ business.

My forks back from J Tech after a service and a tune, shock back from Loco after an emergency service, barrel adjuster to replace tithe one I broke in a crash, new jockey wheels for my X0 mech, Altura classic jersey for when I’m on the skinny bike and some gear cables.

Hope this is comfy on 40+ mile rides, still searching for the perfect perch.

I didn’t find that saddle very comfy…..

Postie brought me xtr pads and bleed funnel thingy, gore bibs, 3/4s and base layer, proII bearings and tools and an a2z freehub.

Is it still too early to start with the big hammer?!

Go ahead DT, after 7 a.m. you can start making noise.
I’ve been using wafer thin seats with some success (Spesh Taupe & Romin) but still looking for more comfort.
What seat you using now DT?

Postman brought a Shimano UN55 threaded bottom bracket for me to put on my 12 year Scott G-Zero. This is the first new BB it’s needed unlike my Zesty which is 18 months old and now requires it’s third BB since new.

10 and 11mm facom spanners. shiny. and a suitcase – cuba here we come.

Currently back on my trusty Stella italia slr 135g…which is good for around 2.5hrs…after 3 starts to get uncomfortable. Reckon ill try one of those with a ‘love groove’ next something like a flite. I found the Antares very firm.

Banging has started 🙂

Postman bought me a letter to say hurty hand is broken and they didnt spot it on the Xrays at A&E .
I knew it was , and knew they didnt know it was .

My new reverb. Looking forward to fitting and playing!

nowt for me..
It’s all about mrs yunki’s rollerskate upgrades this month
Today was a nice set of derby wheels..

Coffee.

A Lezyne Caddy quick release seat pack for the road bike. Came with Haribo AND some Powerbar shot blocks (or something) 🙂

Spoke key and BB removal plug. Ordered 11am yesterday from CRC.

Raceface Evolve bars 725mm nice.

Nothing, I went to a bike shop and bought stuff. I feel good, helps that I have an awesome local[ish] bike shop in Boneshakers of Harrogate.

Zee cranks, x9 10sp on the rear end and a fibre flare rear light (very impressed with)

Set of these –

……….and this –

You will LOVE those brakes btw.

A shiny new PG990 cassette with red bits on. Which obviously, makes me faster. 😮

Just waiting for my new chain.

Talking about SLX brakes… Quite tempted with a set from Merlin as they’re on offer.

2 freehub bushes for mavic hub and bearings to + pro 2 bearings for me

little bit of pointless bling 😀
