    Doesn’t mean they don’t break.

    Quick Google will dismiss your myth.

    A Ti Rock Lobster was my dream bike back in the day.

    Never got one 😟

    Big difference between tickling your balls and pressing hard against your plums.

    That’s what I keep telling my wife. 😁

    That explains why I couldn’t see any mention of the triple butting, I was on the Planet X website (same company but different sites?). There’s a lot less detail on the Planet X site.

    I’m going blind, can’t see any mention of triple butting?
    Pretty sure it is though…

    There’s no mention of the Vandal being butted, but the Rocky Road Frame which is the budget Titanium Frame is described as triple butted and Frame weights are the same give or take a few grams.

    Worth a punt at that price.

    Pleased you’ve got it back, got to ask why you’ve parked a campervan at a hotel?

    Only 60 miles away as well, mmmm…..

    That said, on a second read it’s a different model H30 / M30, cheaper model.

    Missed the bit where he said he didn’t have a mortgage, sorry.
    My theory on interest rates is that no matter how low your mortgage rate is, it’s always higher than the interest rate the bank will pay on savings. Then there are the savings associated with a biannual (or however frequent) fee of potentially thousands for a new mortgage deal.

    Plus the £5500 you pay yourself each year is tax free unlike a pension payment.

    £110,000 gives you £5500 a year for 20 years, so if you’re planning on retiring at 67 that will take you to 87. Not wanting to sound morbid but will you live that long and if you do, how much money will you need at that age?
    As interest rates are so low I’d pay off as much as I could off my mortgage leaving a few pounds on it for your credit score and in case of emergency so you could take the over payment back. Any money left stick it into National Savings Bonds.

    How about Planet X, they have well spec’d carbon bikes at the £1000 mark.
