Take a step back for a minute or two. Can you soak it overnight and get hold of a better socket? Don't rush in with too much brute force (that's not working) and make it worse* *been there,done that 🙃

Jagwire (I would say) are a better cable,with a good choice of colours now. Also,as bikeworkshop says,the Nokon/Alligator links don't play nice with mud/grit ,and being aluminium ,over time they oxidize/crumble quicker on off-road builds.

Been a big fan of Nokon and Alligator cable sets for a while. They do tight turns very well, especially with some rear mechs. Oh, and they are very 'Bling' ;) 🙃

You ever take it off any sweet jumps? Vote for Pedro 😉🙂

And yet...every time a nieghbour asks me if I can 'have a look' at a bike,it will be just like that^^. Then I get the fear ;) 🤣

Bumpity bump :-)

I have a set of (26") wheels in the attic that were built up by Sonic Cycles back in 97. They have wiggly/zig-zag spokes and are a proper PITA to true up. But hey, they look cool when spinning ;) 🤣

Just popped in to see how the build was going, adding the Power Grips is genius . To figure out how to make a quick getaway, the thief would have to be well over 50 ;) 🤣 🤣

A set of Ritchey Pro V4s in very (almost new) good condition. Very minimalist and the pedals and cleats weigh in at 250g I bought these a long time ago to replace my trusty Dura Ace PD 7410s ,as I don't use road pedals on my road bikes (I know, I know ;-) ),but I then managed to get a new set of...

Bump.

To have a shed,is to be at one with the universe. S afe spaces H ead spaces E ndorphin spaces D ream spaces 😉🙃

Try dat,did you see how many of them were riding in the verge 😉🙂

Also noticed that the longer disc levers/hoods seem to be used for a more aero(ish) position.

Apologies if this has been around for ages. I was watching the Paris-Nice ,and in the run up to the finish, it looked like there were a few sets of wider/flared bars. Is this because some of the sprinters/ lead outs are now using them. Thanks :)

At least you never said Zwift, phew ;) :p
