    Don't mention:

    Helmets
    Crank arm lengths
    Resistance training to supplement cycling
    Car re-mapping/tuning.

    ...and blame anything that goes wrong on Wiggle. You'll be fine.

    Don't forget wearing team kit jerseys and not abiding by the rules.

    Oh, and late stage capitalism.

    Anyone spotted any deals on Kask Mojito lids,?

    Looking for a white size medium one.

    I don't know if this is any use but there is a Facebook selling group called cycling buy and sell, and a guy in Wales has one in white/green for £25 looks in good condition but it's only a picture

    I recently bought a Kask Mojito from them. Great price, arrived quickly and included a free water bottle. Would certainly buy from them again.
  • They state back order on their website but say they have stock on their ebay shop.
    Never heard of them so will have a proper look first.

    How about these badgers?

    Can't see much out there in the way of carbon bargainry at the mo - there were some good offers a little while back though.

    Are you looking for 38 centre to centre, or edge to edge, and what about if they have flared drops - at the drops or the hoods?

    wow that is a good deal. however they are very heavy. I was looking more around the 250g mark

    38cm c-c as that will give me a 4cm reduction on the c-c

    id prefer flared drops.

    i was looking at the 3t bars originally - https://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/3t-ergon ... #pid=22143

    this is what im replacing: http://www.wiggle.co.uk/3t-ergosum-team ... handlebar/

    but doesnt come in a 38cm bar otherwise id just buy the same again.

    Ah had not noticed or even looked at the weight, assumed as they were Zipp they would be fairly light!

    I have Ergonova on two of my bikes and love em, not the same as what you are looking at, but like the make.

    Pretty sure on those that the drops are flared, so for myself I wanted 40cm at the hoods, but had to go for a 42 to get 40 at the hoods - I assume you must have factored this in though, having a pair already and all that.

    I do have a set of carbon FSA flat top bars at home somewhere, I did potentially offer them to L2R, but was unable to locate them, and I know he has bought others now - I'm pretty sure they are sold as 40's, but IF I can find them and measure them, they may well be 38 at the hoods - think they are pretty light too. I can have a concerted effort to locate them tomorrow if they might be of interest?

    would potentially be interested if they fit! got a link to them?

    and ive seen carbon ergonova for £99. which makes them red accented which matches my bike perfectly. i cant understand why the ergosum dont come in a 38.

    This is the link, and where I bought them from - mine are deffo sold as 40cm, and that mentions 210g, but I can weigh them of course.
    http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/fsa-k-force-compact-nano-road-bar/rp-prod36072

    What I percieve to be the equivalent seems to be going for £210ish at the mo.

    Unlike you I dislike red a LOT on components, hence why I had to go for the Stealth edition of both sets of my bars!
    In contrast these bars do have red, one reason I have never gotten around to fitting them to anything.

    I will try and find them tomorrow, weigh and measure them, and send you some pics - I need to get them sold either way really.

    A few googles would seem to suggest the measurement is centre to centre, in which case they would be too wide.

    I think I landed my first pair of Ergonovas for something like £110, cracking deal, wish I had just bought two there and then, as when I needed a second pair, think I had to go to something more like £150 :shock:

    yeah im struggling not to press the buy button on the ergonovas, but i just prefer the shape of the ergosum. i guess id get used to it very quickly, especially as it will be narrower than my normal bars as well.

    but have a look for yours and give me a price and we can talk

    Will do, this gives me hope they might be the 38 at the hoods you are after:
