Hi, I am selling some stuff. For more pictures click here.

FSA 150 LX Stem length 90mm for OS handlebar Ø 31.8mm
Stem from FSA (90mm length). Standard 1/1/8th steerer clamp
6/84 degree rise. It think it weight less than 180 g. Condition as new. I've had it packed away for months. I can't remember using it.
£15 incl. postage (1st Class Recorder)



Garmin Edge 500 GPS Enabled Computer with Cadence Sensor and HR Monitor
I bought it from EvansCycle.com (paid over £220). I just checked the memory and it has only 14 rides registered in it. So it has not been used much. It comes complete with original box, all the papers and packaging, the cadence sensor and heart rate monitor belt (I've included a couple of zip tags, so it'll be ready to go). Condition as new.
£175 incl. postage (Special Delivery)





Apple iPhone 3G Black (8GB) Officially Unlocked by O2
Used but well looked after and in very good condition. Screen has had a screen protector since new. It comes with original box, some papers, earphones and power adapter. Also included are some spare screen protecor, soft screen wipe and some rubber cases in diferent colours.
£95 incl. postage (Special Delivery)




Dakine Netbook Case up to 15" screen
Dakine is well know for the high quality stitching and durable materials. Excellent brand. This case is brand new however it has been used once, in my cycle pannier, to take my netbbok to work. I think I paid £15 or £16. It will fit a netbook up to 15". It could also be used as a carry case for iPad.
Price £6 posted



Craft Elite Bike Bib Short (size Large)
As new. Never worn and not even tried on. £108 from Wiggle.com (www.wiggle.co.uk/craft-elite-bike-bib-short/) The pad is amazing. Very technical engineering. With gel injected it has different thicknesses in different areas. It includes a High 5 Energy Source (unopened).
Price £75 incl. postage (Special Delivery)





Elite Crono Fluid ElastoGel Trainer (incl a Continental Ultra Sport Home Trainer Folding Tyre)
Very quiet! Ideal for a flat (I found this video on youtube).
It comes with the original box (not pictured), papers and the Quick Release Skewer. (box it is in the garage. If you really want I can take a picture). Again it has had little use. I used just after I bought it from Wiggle as Xmas present. As most of my stuff it was put away and I forgot about it. Several months later a friend gave me his used Continental Ultra Sport Home Trainer Folding Tyre just to try to get me back into using the trainer again. Nah!
It is in excellent condition, as new, very little use and with just a tiny mark as it can be seen in the picture.

I'd be great If you can arrange your own corrier to collect it. Otherwise I could try to get a quote but I'll only be able to do that through this week. Or you can collect it. I am in South West.
Price £90

Is the Trainer ok for a carbon frame

Is the Trainer ok for a carbon frame

I have heard about that and it seems to cause lots of debate especially on the internet. I'm not an expert, but honestly I don't think any bike frame is that fragile. A well built frame should be able to cope with hard efforts. While the stresses are different on a bike used on the road and on the turbo, I think the stresses put on a frame are far greater when racing or training on the roads than indoor. We often see the pros on carbon using turbo to warm up. I am sure they put out more power warming up than any amateur racing.

As long as you clamp it correctly, use the appropriated rear wheel skewer (provided), don't loose control while doing a out-of-saddle sprint effort, and don't use a frame inappropriate to your size or weight, it should be fine. I think if a bike is not safe to be used on a trainer, it should be used on the roads.

If you are not sure my advice would be to contact your bike's manufacturer (because of warranties).

How old is the Edge? They're only £185 new on Handtec website with a full 12 month warranty.

Carbon frames are fine on just about any turbo. Just don't sprint (which you can't do on that turbo anyway due to the clamping design).

It is one year old. As I said it's had little use and it has no marks, scratches, etc.. Interested in it?

Not at that price without any warranty when £10 more would get me a new one with 12 month warranty.

Well, I am open to offers. The asking price was based on the average price they go on ebay's auctions. Garmin support is very good even after the warranty period. As I said, it is as new and has had little use. If it doesn't sell here I will put it on ebay.
