What have you bought for the bike today ?

[Threevok]

Endura pakajak II from cyclesurgery

Any good ? It's about the only thing from Endura I don't own

 

[RobinS]

A new 36 spoke rear wheel for my tourer from Spa Cycles, and two Schwalbe Marathon tyres.

 

[Venod]

A Thompson Elite Dropper Post for the MTB.

Aint tried it -- it was 16'c when i cycled home so i'll probably let you know tomorrow after my morning commute. They say the material is strong because the way it woven but i get the feeling id probably end up tearing it somehow .

I also tried the equivalent from castelli that was double the price and while that did feel reeeeeaaally nice, Im not into forking out almost £90 for it when i can get a much cheaper alternative.

Had time to sit down and have proper inspection and i have to say im rather impressed. It fits me perfectly and the sleeves are just about right, its got reflective piping/patches here and what seems to be decent ventilation. The fit is a lot better than their Helium waterproof jacket they make (which i also own)

Then I might have a look. I own the Gridlock II Jacket, which is fine when it's cold, but a little too much in the warmer weather and doesn't pack away as well.

When the description mentioned under arm ventilation i was thinking along the lines of my windchill II jacket. with the pakajak it's just mesh venting near/under/behind covered by a flap on the outside to keep the rain out.

Sun is out so it's a little too warm to wear it

Bought some new conti 4 seasons for the Cube today, well some 2nd hand ones but only done 100 miles as my mate didn't get on with them.

Decided to go with 25's, normally run 23's but will see how i get on.

 

[jowwy]

Altura handlebar bag
2x clement lgg 32mm gumwall tyres

Not like the schwalbe road cruisers fitted to the Ti

 

[FishFright]

A pair of Specialised road shoes at a bargailicious £30 and some Pearl Izumi 3/4 bibs

I bought a new front derailleur today after the old one broke. I was a shimano 105 and cost £25 . Fitting was straight forward but its needed a little fettling to stop the irritating chain rub noise.No matter how much fine adjustments where made ,I still couldn't get it to run smoothly until a noticed that my chain ring has got a slight buckle in it. I got a pair of pliers on the side plates of the derailleur and opened them apart slightly and its now running nice and quiet.

 

[Shut Up Legs]

I just received an order of several pairs of tyres (for my commuter/tourer bike and my road bike), and now the house is filled with that new tyre smell. If I don't wake up tomorrow morning, that will be the reason why.

 

[WelshJon]

Shoes, SPD's and endura humvee shorts, spare mech hanger.
Oh and a Giant Stance

 

[Heigue'r]

Zonda c17s..some bibs and a jersey.Zondas to replace pr2 wheelset that have started to eat themselves from the hub out after a couple of thousand miles.

 

[pjd57]

Paid Halfords to slime my tyres.
I know it gets mixed reviews but I'm planning a few out of the way runs , I'm hopeless with repairs and £6 a tyre seemed worth a punt.
