The Challenge Open Paris-Roubaix tyres arrived today, and my god are they a mare to fit. Almost gave up, but after finding a few hints & tips online I managed to get them on my rims. Apparently if you leave then inflated for a few days they do stretch and are much easier to mount.

Maybe they'll loosen up after a few rounds of Paris-Roubaix :smile:

Just gone back to their website to look for a ladies size 16 (upon @vickster advice) and delivery was now available for the men's? Size L ordered with free delivery too .. Result!
Should have gone via Quidco though!:smile:
My Proviz jacket was delivered yesterday, I’m delighted, really good fit and excellent quality.
Thank you @Milkfloat for the heads up on a real bargain.

Ditto - many thanks - should be great for after-dark commuting duties. :okay:

I was just thinking, is it a purely after-dark jacket as the grey colour in daylight is the furthest thing from hi-vis surely?

I'm not interested in a battle of opinions between hi-vis and ninja black and whether or not that makes a difference, but surely the folk that buy this are concerned with maximum visibility.

It is quite a bright silver colour in daytime. Not ideal in fog but pretty visible in other conditions.
