I haven't posted for a while, so hello to everyone that remembers me. I still ride regularly, but haven't been using my MTBs much, so I've decided to have bit of a clear out. Mainly MTB parts, although some are non specific and there are a couple of road parts too. I hope this is OK, but I've...

Lezyne Mega XL GPS bundle - £150.00 I bought this a while ago, but it's had very little use and is essentially as new. There are lots of extras included: Mega XL GPS Heart Rate Flow Sensor Cadence Speed Flow Sensor X-Lock Standard Mount GPS Front Bar Mount CM Mini USB Cable More information...

Re: I was wondering about that, given that modern LED lights are only about 10W for 60W incandecent lamp equivalent a car battery, or perhaps better a leisure battery for caravans and boats, should run a house load for quite a while. Were you thinking of changing the lighting circuit over to...

Re: I had a go with some cleaning stuff and both the saddle and the grips have come up nice and clean. I don't think the bike has been used much and was mainly just a bit dusty from wherever it was stored.

Re: Ah, that would involve going to the shops, and what do I do with what's left, does it go with gin? :D

Re: Something like Jif or Cif or whatever it's called now?

Re: No problem, I replaced the crappy pump head on my cheap track pump with a BBB head and it's much better than the original. There's a newer version that looks even better: https://bbbcycling.com/uk_en/bfp-96-dua ... -id=143733, I reckon the long "handle" would make it much easier to get...

My brother has bought a very lightly used Hoy bicycle for my nephew for Christmas, like this one: I offered to give it a clean and a once-over. Now i've wiped of some dust and given the frame a polish it looks pretty much brand new with hardly a mark or any signs of use on it. However, the...
