What have you bought for the bike today ?

[Sixmile]

After a few months hunting down a decent road bike I took the plunge last night after finding this on Gumtree, located around 3 miles away.

Can't wait to get out on it tomorrow, though I now need SPD-SL cleats! Ladies and gentlemen, the Cube Peloton Race.

Rebuilding my Ti frame again - back to drops

Sticking with the 1x11 set-up but with sram force cx1, trp spyre mechanical discs, 44t race face narrow wide chainring, sram rival 2.1 long cage, shimano xt8000 11/40 cassette

Pro seatposet, pro lt stem and pro vibe 7s bars

Looking forward to it all arriving and starting the project.

Decided to use a shimano setup

Still 1x11...... 105 11sp shifters - 42t race face narrow wide - trp spyres - 105 11/32 cassette - lizard skins - 105 derrauiler......as its for commuting use on the Ti expensive clutched mech not needed as im using narrow wide chainring

Also by using shimano shifters its easy to shift back to 2x11 if i dont like the 1x setup and very minimal cost too

See.Sense Icon rear light.

Tried it today and very bright;app works well and paired up easily and updated the firmware with no problems.

Theft alarm works well too,this was the main reason for buying it as it will be used on the Helium most of the time.

Does a can of Citrus Degreaser count?

A new big ring!

Well, I've finally got round to buying a track pump, and what a revelation ! I've just, quickly and easily, pumped up six bike tyres, four rugby balls and a football. Why has it taken me so long to get one ?!

 

[Alberto Balsam]

A Lezyne 600XL front light and a 2 sets of brake pads.... I did wonder about the light at the point of sale, the days now getting longer and all that.
However, it did get used early this morning in the twilight and mist. I also ordered a Super Byasi storage bottle cos it's bigger (and smarter) than my current one.

Not strictly for the bike, but for me while I'm sat on it....

Reserved on Click n Collect at Halfords to pick up tomorrow, three tubes of High 5 electrolyte tabs on almost half price AND 3 for 2 (so £7.38, less BC discount = £6.65 all in!) as flagged up by @tincaman on the 'Found a Bargain" thread .

 

[Alberto Balsam]

Thanks for the heads up on that - I've ordered some too!

 

[Tiger10]

I have ordered a pair of the aldi shoes online and look forward to experiencing clippless moments...
