What have you bought for the bike today ?

[cyberknight]

@cyberknight I could potentially be, would you mind measuring the pit to pit measurement unstretched, and also the front unstretched, I suppose basically the length of the zip really!

Are they thin / summer jerseys would you say?

Dropped you a DM too.

hi
yes they are summer jerseys

Twenty 1/4" ball bearings for the rear hub on my Allez. Only actually needed eighteen but I figured I'd probably drop a couple and they'd roll to some inaccessible place in the garage so ..........

Last of the big spenders - £2.60 the lot

Numberplate from the USA 🇺🇸 Number decal I had Custom made in Barnsley 😂😂

 

[DCLane]

A Lezyne Zecto rear light plus a couple of Schwalbe G-One Allround performance gravel tyres picked up cheaply.

SKS Velo 55 mudguards (20" wheels) for my ID9. These are aimed at kids' bikes, but only 15 quid. I got a cheap Chinese set a couple of years back but couldn't fit the front as the stays didn't fit the disc brake fork. These don't come with stays and the idea is they're rigid enough as is.

Aiming to fit just the front as the existing rear is fine, though I could well revisit that decision if they look badly unmatched. The existing set are gloss black and these look matt. If I do I'll investigate a bodge solution with the existing stays on the rear.

@Dadam - I use a Velo 65 on the rear and a Velo 55 on the front of my Raleigh Pioneer as they match nicely.

 

[Andy in Germany]

2x Schwalbe "Green Guard" 16" Tyres for the Brompton, as I noticed last week that the Marathons supplied with it are looking very worn down.

Holdsworth that was going to be stripped for parts. Now I’ll strip it instead :-) Unfortunately the chain stays are rusted though. Some quality kit, though - Suntour Cyclone mk1 front mech to start with.
Large flange hubs on the wheels, too!

A bottle of Finish Line Ceramic Wet lube as I seem to be getting through a lot of it despite limited mileage at the moment for some reason.

 

[8mph]

A cheap and cheerful external lockring. Hope sell theirs at £15 a piece, I paid around £6 for this generic one.

 

[cyberknight]

New cassette for the commuter standard 11=28 8 speed shimano offering i shall fit later .

 

[DCLane]

I picked up a pair of M-Part track wheels with DT Swiss hubs cheaply, with a wheel bag included. They've only been used on rollers, which offers a new brake track. They'll go onto the grasstrack bike.

As per my previous thread on shorter cranks, I have bought a pair of 160mm 105 cranks. Arrived today and installed, will give them a spin over the next few days.

My main fear is that all my bikes have crank based power, if I find the 160mm really help my back I am in trouble financially! 😂

 

[geocycle]

A new thru axle skewer for the Spa elan. I Managed to round off the Allen bolt on the old one! The hardest part was working out the length, diameter and pitch needed so in the end I called Spa.

This thing for bike cleaning.
