iron deficiency needs to be considered daily
not once a fortnight
change your diet and forget supplements
how old are you?
how often do you ride?
overweight?

not having a go here just trying to help 🙂

put the non drive side halfway back on
blowlamp the shell
screw driveside back on then off a bit
then back on and off a bit more
….etc
keep it hot
take it easy
no scaffold tube extensions!!
point taken, but horses for courses…
id sup the 1.5l before i was out the car park!!
not much room for a waterproof etc
i`ve had my Northface hammerhead donkeys years
use it daily on my commute
and if you put water in the bladder

check if its loose in the bottom bracket shell (mine was)
if the bb is 68mm shell, then with the 2 ..PLASTIC.. (ffs) spacers, means only 10mm of thread engagement!!
fwiw i was surprised just how tight you have to have the retaining ring,
i`m a mechanic and i thought i had mine tight up but when i installed the milk and pumped 35psi bubbles appeared
had to get pliers on it/them
(alpine rims)
mrmo ….
*unless it is a hope bottom bracket unscrewing and trashing the threads on the frame! *
Drive side?? me too.. them **** plastic spacers for 68 shells/10mm thread engagement.. ****!
fortunate there was enough meat left to install an isis bb!!
and yeah why the f*ck isn`t the drive side a self tightening L/H thread eh???
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!
tubes are more of a faffing pain,
…. ever had 2 or more punctures when your out?
my worst nightmare
tiny, impossible to find thorn punctures?
worse still when its muddy and wet!
so get on with it
i`ve never ever cleaned a rotor either!
aerosol disk brake cleaner from the local car spares place IS the stuff to use,
but don't do it unless the disc is contaminated with chain lube etc
having gone through 3 phones in 3 months
it was time to change and get a water/dust/shock proof one
…. slim,not bulky so it slides in your pocket easy, recommended!!

Hey Dave, i say your right, do try before you buy!
and don't be swayed by others opinions,
i'm only 5ft7in in my fishnets,
most peeps would put me down for a small one!
but i always/really, prefer/need 19inches,
so persevere with your quest.
