After recently selling my Mmmbop, I though I'd better quickly reinvest before the money turns into shoes and handbags fund. Couldn't resist the crazy deals on these beauties Through axle bolt-on adapter to convert the 12mm axle to standard QR dropout to stiffen up the rear end. First impression is good, they pick up speed really quickly and are very rigid, no detectable flex in the wagon wheels. And I've saved over 300 grams

First ride with my new Zee mech and narrow wide today, well impressed. Only prob was I had swapped my dropper post lever to the other side as there is now free space and I kept thumbing into thin air where it once was.

What a great day, my first job is cancelled, so I catch the courier delivering for my new (old) pushed shock, and the off set bushing finally arrives as well, so plenty of time to fit and sort out bike. Local park is a bit poor to properly review new shock but it is certainly more responsive. Didn't lose much BB height with the off set bush, <1cm, I think because there is a slight increase in shock length. Anyway looking forward to the Weekend to check out the whole set up. PS second job of the day was tightening down a toilet seat and fitting a net curtain for a nice old dear.

Perhaps you were meant to tighten down the old dear and fit a net curtain for the toilet seat I'm sure you guys will have fun at BPW this w/e, enjoy the new shock, Wob

The new Garmin Edge 1000 looks nice and has really expanded the number of features. It can now do this: race through different strava segments and see real-time results pre-loaded with Garmin Cycle Maps round trip routing live tracking incoming call and text alerts social media sharing weather, sending/receiving courses wireless uploads to Garmin Connect integration with compatible Shimano Di2 electronic shifting systems showing up on the display of the unit what gear you are in and whilst I won't be buying it anytime soon it's 'reasonable' at ÂŁ499 Garmin Edge 1000check out the oh so cool advert here

My beloved Prophet is currently getting a new BB welded onto the other BB that was welded onto the original. That should bring the height down to a respectable normal level. Just as well I'm running the single ring up front though.

Not sure if these would be classed as bling cause everyone seems to run them now but I am looking forward to getting them set up. 60 PSI on the front tubeless??

Bodgetastic ! I am ... err ... speechless. Looks like it could be tricky to keep clean in winter, but hey, let's hope it's now at the right height
