Makes my replacement Kogel BB (road) and jockey wheels pale in comparison.


No, but at the price I got it for I'm not too bothered and the Colnago post is a little porky anyway. Unless a matching one appears for sale over the next week or so for a good price (unlikely), I'll be going ahead with the dark label Deda Superleggero/Superleggera combination which I feel match this colourway perfectly.

A new R8000 ultegra update for the wife’s 2007 R3sl. Replacing sram red 10 speed. So far she is happy. Works great, very quiet and smooth shifting.

I'm kinda addicted to Simon's Carbonworks.de cages, which isn't a bad thing!

They're available in matte and gloss. I'm digging the matte for my Addict...

I do like the matt cages, will have to get some for my Urgestalt and use the gloss ones for a new future build.

Did Veloflex drop their warning about mounting their clinchers to carbon rims?

It's all downhill from here, except for the uphills.

Dunno, but mine got proper shredded on a set of Fulcrum Quattro Carbons. Tube went BANG so loud workers repairing the col de Soller stopped the pneumatic drill!

Nice one kgt. Half price sounds amazing. How will you get on with it compared to the SMP.

It will not replace my SMP yet. But I can now have a full b&w Skylon as intended.
