A 2nd Moon Comet, to enable the now occasional commuting Mrs to have 2 lights front and rear on the Cube Reaction, and I to have the same on the CDA, as were quite likely to be commuting at the same time!

My Chain Reaction order arrived on Saturday, I can’t resist a bargain even though I’m not sure what I’ll use these for, I’m not even sure what the difference is between each rear mech?
1 Shimano Deore M610 10 speed rear derailleur for £19.99, 3 Shimano Deore T610 10 speed rear derailleurs for £10.99 each, and 5 Clark’s stainless steel gear cables at £1.99 each.

I think I’ll be using one of the rear mechs, I already have 16 bikes (bit of an obsession!) so no room for any fixer uppers.That's easy. Buy four bikes to do up...

In that case, I'm the one who is slacking, seeings I've only got five bikes.
OK, three aren't rideable, but hey... 
On the flip side, a good bargain is a good bargain.

Nothing says performance improving like "Snail" brand.
Which reminds me. I had replacements brake hoods from Dae Yung. Confidence inspiring.

I got the dispatch notice for my New BB and a BB Tool. Sh1tmano have usefully made the external diameter of their BBs for Hollotech II cranks smaller. I had tried to buy them a couple of lbs's but none of them either stocked the smaller diameter tool or BB. One did have the tool in their workshop but they couldn't do the 15min job for weeks

Haha. I've seen a brand of Chinese carbon fibre frames called Shitsu. Not very inspiring.

Don't be surprised if you end up with 2 BB adapters. I had to get a new Hollotech II BB earlier this year and the blurb clearly stated no adapter to fit the standard Hollotech/SRAM tool was included so one was added to the order. When it was delivered, I opened the BB box to check it and packed in the top of it was...I got the dispatch notice for my New BB and a BB Tool.

A hope anodised orange seat clamp.
Absolutely nothing wrong with the Enigma Ti clamp (far from it) but the tart in me wanted just a touch more orange to match the Hope RX4 orange calipers...

Yip, I'm expecting the plastic adapter the last 2 bb's had an adapter despite the shops saying there was none in the box. I decided to order a full length spanner for the future.
