What have you bought for the bike today ?

Just received and fitted a mini rear-view mirror on the drops of my handlebars.
What I should have done was fix the puncture in the rear wheel!

When I bought my Spa Aubisque 3 years ago I wanted silver wheels, seatpost etc.

That wasn't entirely possible at the time so I went with some stuff in silver and some in boring black.

Today I had delivery of a shiny silver handlebar from Flandria. That just leaves the wheels. I'll hope to build a new wheelset this year.

YES ! A man to my own heart. This new Blackout (Black on Black on Black) trend regarding components / Groupsets doesn't float my boat either.

On all my bikes i have bought contrasting parts. Much of the time Raw or Polished (ie: Un-painted Silver). Even if thats 'just' pedals, seat,clamp, wheel skewers, stem perhaps and a few other odd parts. Just something to break up the sea of Black.

We're certainly in agreement.......

Have you just been reminded of the puncture now you have a better view of it......... ?

Just fitted my new tail light to the ebike commuter, it brightens when slowing down and flashes under hard braking. Busch and Muller Dart E Brex. Her indoors wasn't impressed with me riding up and down the kitchen trying it out. 🤣
