What bike related thing is in the post to you right now ...

Carnac/ PlanetX enduro helmet - definitely overkill for what I'll be using it for, but needed a new mtb helmet as hoping to get out on the trails the next couple of months, and £15 + delivery/ addresspal it suited the budget.

Mistral Bib Tights from Galibier. Not sure whether they're a bargain until I try them (hence not in the bargain alerts thread), but a nice discount for existing customers, and again I needed new winter tights and comes in cheaper than the club option and I do love the galibier shorts I got earlier in the year.

Kona Paddy Wagon

Case of fix up the 10 year old commuter V get something hassle free.. looking forward to trying out the fixed option although i'd say I'll revert to singlespeed.

Sounds like fun.

Not sure you have the right forum though :pac:

Ergon GP4 grips.

Trying to sort out a bit of wrist pain on the long commutes

New shorter stem for the commuter, along with the realisation that my flexibility hasn't really improved since the last commuting spell, so n+1 probably won't be race geometry!

Its just a fancy zip lock bag with a hole to tie a string to, but it looks to be a heavy grade of plastic, for 99p its worth a punt (no pun intended). Its just for my phone and key during the winter.

99p Water Prooof bag from eBay

I just bought the Samsung Galaxy S8+ so no longer need a waterproof bag... although the 99p bag would have saved me quite a few quid

Look Keo Max 2 Blades for my Genesis Volare plus a bottle cage that matches the colour scheme. Lush :-)

It's the 853 with the green/black/yellow colour scheme, was bought in 2015. It's 10 speed 105 with Aksium wheels. I bought it on Adverts last week, slight bit of a dent on the frame but amazing value at 250 beer tokens!! Originally planned to have it as a winter bike but will see how it goes and would plan on upgrading GS and wheels in spring.

Whats yours? I'm in lust with these frames! Think this is going to be long lasting relationship

Noice. They are superb value - no different than others like Firefly & Ritte at 3 times the price. 250 is a steal.

Its a 931, got it from one of the lads on Boards Adverts. Its a slow work in progress. Its gonna break the internet when its finished.

Briko Gass aero helmet. I’ve been hmmming and hawing over it since I first seen it on Cav last year and finally decided I was worth the €150 price tag. It’ll fit in nicely with my other 5 helmets :rollseyes:

Kryptonite Evolution Mini 7 - €40 from CRC

LBSs (Pearse Street) €79

One of them selling the New York Lock for €150! CRAY-ZAY!

Cinelli Neo Morphe handlebars. I really like these, despite/because of their unusual shape.

My old pair got dragged (with the bike) behind the car on Friday night, when the ball hitch bike-rack came loose/off. Destroyed. Sadly, a new pair is the bones of 200 euros...but it could have been much worse. Really hard to find online - only Ribble had them in stock.

For the same reason, a new pair of SPD pedals. The old ones are lovely pedals - shame that one of them is ground down to the bearing, courtesy of the M6 motorway grinder.

TychoCaine

I have a set of these coming on the slow boat from China. They'll save me swapping back and forth between look & flat pedals all the time.

balaclavas for my nearly 2 year old son to keep him warmish on the bike to and from creche!
