Another vote for wait for the new nexus. It should be cheaper than most phones, will run faster as there’s no unnecessary apps and gets updates first. Google are gonna be announcing it on the 29th for release in October (hopefully), I’m hoping my Sony Z1 lasts long enough to wait it out.
If you don’t want to wait then go for the LG G4.

As far as I know TMS are looking into sorting him with a full trials build, they just need to arrange shipping on it.

EDIT: Just seen the link above

Not a drama but if you like comedy then I’d seriously recommend Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Only series 1 on there currently but it’s a great watch!

I’m sure I’ve searched for a route and saved it to my Google account then opened it up on my phone.

I’m 6’2″ and on a 58 which feels fine but I wouldn’t want to go any shorter on the stem.

I have one light on the front and 2 on the back (depending on whether or not they’re both working at the time) and then I usually wrap my hi viz work vest over my rucksack

Yup that’s a sales pitch!

Cannot wait for it!

Watch out for punctures on the towpaths!

Spyres with Icetech rotors here and they’re immense, running 180 up front and 160 on the rear.

I’ve got a 2015 10 and love it. As above the first things I did was stick some different pedals and a spoon on, now gone down a different route altogether for gnarmac fun with low risers, dropper post and 1×10 clutched drivetrain.
It gets the most use out of all my bikes by a long way and at some point I’ll change the wheels to some Pro 2/Pacenti builds.

EDIT: Also went with some mudguards and a rack for work commutes but the guards are currently off for the Summer!

Vikings and Banshee

Yup, secondary glazing is actually really good just looks awful from the inside and is a pain in the arse when it comes to opening windows.

Apparently Welsh and Boyle are sitting down and really working hard on bringing a story that will live up to the original as they know it could quite easily all go pear shaped.

Another vote for the ibert safetseat, got one for our daughter which is fitted to my wifes Raleigh I built. From what I’ve read it gives the most leg room for a front mounted seat without having to ride with your knees bowed out, I can even ride with the seat set for the wife without a real struggle.

As above, end of school holidays. Prime time to go in the next week or two!

Decathlon lid sounds good, think I’ve looked at one before but the internet was playing up so I couldn’t view the page properly. Best take a trip to Stockport!

Can’t make my mind up on this whether it’s wrong or insanely cool, made by one of the guys on another forum I use and he rides it everyday.

Tuna and BBQ sauce or mixed with rice/pasta and chilli pesto!

No internet until the end of next week, damn you EE!

I can’t believe he told his wife, that should always be a surprise “Look what I’ve just got dear, it was so cheap I couldn’t not buy it!!”

Had a 2.0 diesel C-Max and it’s the worst car I’ve ever owned, was glad to see the back of it. So many problems one after the other, awful.

I like my Whispbars on our Corolla Verso, easy to mount bike carriers/etc with a light spray of silicone lube or washing up liquid.
Only thing I don’t like is the “lockable” covers don’t stay on very well.

Nothing beats order confirmation emails from Superstar months after the item has been delivered

Paint and a steady hand

I was all set to ride in today as I haven’t for a week or two but then I couldn’t be bothered charging my lights up and I did legs at the gym last night. Add to that the fact I got about 5hrs sleep which meant if I had woken at 5am to ride I would have gone for the extra half hour in bed and a car journey!

Hard going to work but way comfier on the way home! 8)

I don’t think you’ll go too wrong as long as it’s got history and has had everything done that should be. Best having a look on a TT forum to see what kind of problems you might run into, I know some of the mk1 bits but not sure on mk2.

I verge on 40% and got a bike through cyclescheme (£965) which is costing me about £67 a month out my wages before tax.

Years ago there was a couple and a lad who were nicking bikes around our village who were stripping them down and rebuilding mixing up the components, the bikes were then picked up by a guy from Manchester who obviously sold them on further down the line so keep a look out for bike builds similar.
The only problem with that, which the police told us, is once they’ve swapped stuff over unless the frame number is intact and you have it you can’t prove ownership which is why they got off scot free.

Plus when the house got raided any bits they had left they chucked over the back fence into a field so it was no longer on their property, absolute joke!

Hmm, tempted as I’ve not ridden in for a while and I won’t need the panniers overly filled. Only a 6 miler here but that’s more than enough!

Running TRP Spyres here with some (probably too heavy for road use) Icetech rotors and they are unbelievably powerful and zero hassle.

Cheap Cree ebay jobby is still doing me well a year later and hasn’t yet burned my house down

Yup depends on who’s at the other end. Our local delivery man also does stuff like Next, Topshop, etc…. and is pretty prompt. I live in a large village though so he tends to get to know the locals and knows when they’re likely to be in.

I’m very dubious about using Hermes though after seeing some lads “loading” a wagon in Stockport. Safe to say I don’t send anything that could break easily and everything I do send is extremely well padded!

I disagree with the above comment about the time used, my first son was never off his and rode it pretty much everyday for just over a year and covered a lot of miles on it. It was worth every penny hence the idea of an early rider for our daughter, I do however agree with the brakes comment. That is pretty much the decider in which bike to get.

The early riders are pretty high end for a balance bike. You can get something that will do the job equally well for a lot less (both my boys started on a £70 balance bike from Evans, same as this one, with foam tyres which is still going well 5½ years later) although I am also looking at getting my daughter an Early Rider for xmas this year just because.

New Nexus should be out at the end of this month, just hope my Xperia Z1 holds out that long!

Decathlon 540 :wink:

In for Mumford And Sons, interest in them seems to be some sort of weird desire to get on an inbred country bumpkin badwagon (and this is com,ing from someone who lives on a farm!)

Absolutely loads of cheap laptops on sale at Currys/PCWorld currently. Can’t really go wrong with any for what you want.
