100% If I sell anything I pack it like it’s vintange china. I’m a little less so with the karma items but try my best. you need to be a total Dullard to do anything less?! Just pack it as if you’re posting it home & you’ll be okay

I've got one of those endless band jobs, not sure if that'd work?

I've been hard at it with the Mr Sheen tonight & seem to be making progress. Saddle swapped out for a re-issue flyte for the time being as there was no gel in the Turbo Vetta gel :(. Front wheel appears fair rumbly, does anyone know if these run a sealed bearing? (XC pro) as I've limited...

Jobs a good un’

Bit more done today, canti’s stripped & cleaned up, bars, thumbies, levers, grips & gear cables run, saddle fitted to tattier of the seatposts (I couldn’t bring myself to cut the nicer one down) Just a chain & brake cables & we can have a test ride 🙂

Jagwire Lex Sl, quite disappointing if I'm honest, this is the used set I dug out of the garage, let me know if they're any use to you 👍
