I trust this is the right section for this query. I'm installing a new front mech and discovered, for the first time ever, a 'skid plate' on the inner part of the cage: a flimsy bit of poorly attached plastic that looks destined to get mangled or fall off. Why? Shimano, why? Google gives an...

I was curious to try one of these but, ultimately, I don't think it's going to get any more use from me: it duplicates what I've already got with my Marin Stinson and the Stinson's geometry suits me just that little bit better. However, it's a nice frame set, karma because it's collection only...

Bought as a complete bike for some of the parts. Structurally sound but tatty paint and decals. Size: small (15" or 16"). RaceFace chainset with Isis BB: I had a quick attempt to remove these but the threads started to strip. With penetrating fluid and more patience, they might well come...

Quite a good piece if you're interested in this field. (No mention of Mike Sinyard and ADHD though.) https://www.cyclingweekly.com/fitness/up-to-one-in-seven-cyclists-are-neurodivergent-including-ef-boss-vaughters-who-considers-it-a-superpower

With dust and cobwebs at no extra charge by the look of it...

An interesting little piece thrown my way by Google News this morning: https://road.cc/content/news/study-cyclists-more-caring-drivers-community-issues-304755. In a nutshell: if you cycle around urban areas, you engage with other people and the local environment more than you do when driving...

Shame about the paint chips but otherwise nice...

The Raleigh Chopper on Blue Peter in 1970:

Located in Dallas and perhaps priced a little optimistically but there are some good quality, close-up photos in this listing for anyone interested...

Reasonably priced too...

I've got a few items to shift. Condition varies considerably. Prices DO NOT include postage. Postage will be Royal Mail Tracked 48 which is £3.45 for most items and, usually, I will post the next day. UK buyers only just to minimise the hassle. Payment via PayPal please (F&F or pay fees).

I guess the thread about Planet X going into administration on the MTB forum was one of the ones that got deleted the other day. Anyway, apparently it has new owners and will survive. https://road.cc/content/news/future-planet-x-secured-cycling-retailer-sold-301801

Only a Rufftrax but only £10 too. https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/mountain-bike/1459464735

Asking price is perhaps a little high but offers accepted...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-south-scotland-65424579 Awful backstory, but if I get to 85 and can still ride at all, I will be chuffed. Mavis is an amazing woman! The oldest rider I know is 75 and still going strong. He swims 5K every week too. And that got me wondering. Does anyone...

Rare and not cheap...
