Not bad but my vote goes to that little screw on my Dura-Ace brakes that, with a
quick turn of an allen wrench, centers the brake pads over the rims.

You got that right. I'll admitt to not being the best mechanic and it seems that my old
Suntour brakes would never stay centered. It was like nothing could be done to
get it right.

Have you tried the Crank Brothers Expandable Speed tyre lever? It's all the lever you'll ever need.

I just took delivery of grey Hudz for my Chorus - unfortunately I'm in London and my bike is in Sussex!

Drat. I've either got to respray the bike or change my 105 shifters for Ultegra. That's what I call clever marketing.....d.j.

Hi there.
Best cycling invention ever was not the first ever bicycle, but the second:
One bike is transport, but two is a race!

A link for your local distributor or you can get them from Wiggle but the majority of options at Wiggle are out of stock.0

Me too.
Failing that, how about the little nut on old Mavic hubs' axles that allow you to adjust the bearing play, once the wheel's tightened in the frame?
Or even just old Mavic hubs in general?
Could someone please disagree with this to keep the Ebay prices low?0 -

Are you kidding me. Mavic is junk, trash, useless crap. There, how was that?

I feel sure that the best experiment to eliminate the gyroscopic effect would have been to try to stay upright whilst stationary. But what do I know.
In fact, I think he's successfully proved how important the gyroscopic effect is, judging by the photo in which he's about to fall off due to a reduction in it.
What a hunt.0
