Can you tell me where to find the Canyon chaincatcher ? I have looked on the Canyon site, but no luck. Thanks,

I have several lenses for the 006, including the polarized red lens, which is very much inferior to the Pitch polarized fire iridium.. the finish of the Salice lens has also been damaged by my sweat and appears somewhat less durable than that from Oakley.


thanks a bunch for that info, I found the pitch to be a bit too small coverage wise so it would probably be best pass on the Salice for now then.
Looks like I made a new 90 Proof friend

Two of these arrived yesterday. Panaracer Greenlites tubes. Will give them a go. Weight isn't too shabby for the two 57gms each.

You found Greenlites? From where? That's what I always rode with more than a decade ago. I still have 1 MTB tube left but no road tubes.

Can you do me a favor? Weigh those two bottles with their full content. Thanks!

Got a pair of these:

Zipp Service Course CSL handlebars. Super short reach, 40cm. Got them yesterday and have found some interesting things in it's mating with a K-Edge Garmin mount. Looking to take some pictures tomorrow, but what I will say now is that the ovalization of the bar makes using out front mounts a bit tricky.
