This.

I lost the last one at work: it was in my pocket when I left the workshop but by the time I reached the till it had gone, no amount of searching helped: it had vanished.

I've tried to work without for a month but I would reach for it every few minutes so it was getting frustrating, so I've replaced it, on the basis that means the old one wil automatically turn up within 24 hours.

A couple of bits:

- An ultra-lightweight seatpost for the Ridley Helium hillclimb build. Not quite the Ultimate USE 108-120g point but 140g for half the price.
- A KMC DLC chain in black/red which was discounted. That'll go on son no. 2's Cervelo or more likely my NeilPryde.
- A pair of new brake hoods for the Viner Mitus as they're a bit tatty. That'll get done at some point in the next few months.

KMC K1SL Single Speed Chain in Gold - to replace the one on the single speed, which is starting to look a little tatty

A Fumpa nano electronic pump and tyre pressure gauge. After reading discussion on here I wondered if this would help on the road when I’ve reached my limit with the hand pump. I’ve got a shoulder issue so struggle a bit to get tyres really hard with anything other than a track pump. So far looks good, would do a road tyre from flat to 80 psi on one charge and perhaps a bit more. The nano really is tiny, not much more than a match box and very light. Makes a very satisfying fart noise in operation. will report back. https://www.fumpapumps.co.uk/

I have one of these with Columbus Nivacrom tubing, this one is a later model built with Tange Prestige. Beautiful bikes to ride if you like 26ers.

As we both use them for most of our local commuting, they get a lot of wear - !
