Both were 195 g (same as manufacturer's claimed). I'm excited to see how they ride tomorrow. Should be sunny and 19 C /66 F on the coast tomorrow

A book.

What have I bought today? Too much!

[dereksmalls]

Bought a couple of weeks ago but turned up today - Mark Cavendish - at speed. Just read the prologue about the 2011 Worlds and my heart was pounding! Great introduction so far.

[Kjetil]

Oh..

A wee haul, yes.

[Klarion]

Sram Red 2012 front & rear derailleurs, found on Gumtree. A few scrapes & scratches but nothing that should affect the mechanisms.



Now looking for (2nd hand) levers- however, the 2012 ones seem to be like 'hens teeth' at the moment so that might take a while.

[Klarion]

Another 2nd hand bargain: Tune Komm-Vor+.



Very light, and nice to pick up & hold. But I've never used a carbon saddle before, so the prospect of actually riding on it is a bit scary!

[pastronef]

it has shipped today, from Nextie Bike

[Klarion]

Hi Hasbeen, I can't reply to your pm, as I'm still a 'noob' here & don't yet have the pm sending facility. However, if me + the Tune saddle don't eventually manage to get on, you will definitely get first dibs on it!

[jekyll man]

Not so much of a "what have you bought today?", but more a "what bought it today?" kind of day after hitting a pothole.....
Means a trip to the shop for:
Replacement for my rear Fulcrum R7
Replacement Conti 4season
New tube

Mostly annoyed about the tyre; its only a couple of weeks old.

Not really been my week; trashed a tyre and snapped a gear cable on the mtb at the start of it

Ho Ho Ho Not the xmas goodies I was planning on purchasing...
