I also ordered one of the PBK seatposts, so thanks to chr1s for the headsup. My current one has cosmetic scratches from where it has slipped into the frame from not being tightened correctly and that has always niggled me!

I hope this can be of use to someone

Roughly how much lighter are these than the standard stems? Will it help cut down on vibration too?

thanks

I just got a pair of Altura Dryline 56lt pannier bags from Ellerkers of Hull for £63. I know it,s not fantastically cheap, but if it,s exactly what you,re looking for (as I was) it,s better than the £80+ some internet shops are asking.

Mr P...scuse my ignorance. if I get the seat post and this shim http://www.probikekit.com/display.php?code=A8067 will that be enough for a seat tube that's quoted as 31.6 mm or are the tolerances and the nature of the material too tight and I would be better getting a shim that was a perfect fit?

Assos & Craft Base Layers

Parker International have 2007 Assos Mille bishorts at £69.95, but only in small and TIR. Anyone know what waist TIR is ? Always assumed I could not afford and was too fat for Assos, but now I am tempted.

Also my local TK Maxx (Bournemouth town centre) has Craft Pro-Cool Summer base layers in a few sizes, T shirts for £10 and sleeveless for £6.99. Bought one last year for about £20 and can highly recommend.

As far as I can tell, they size their bib shorts by height for some reason, TIR are pretty much the largest ones in the range.

I found this Assos sizing chart :-

Size Height
Small (S) 5'2" to 5'4"
Medium (M) 5'4" to 5'8"
Large (L) 5'8 to 6'0"
X-Large (XL) 6'0" to 6"2"
XX-Large (XLG) 6'2" to 6'4" and taller w/ Slender to Medium Build
XXX-Large(TIR) 6'2" to 6'4" and taller w/ Larger Build

Hope that helps.
