    Funny, I've just been reading about "a solution looking for a problem" :lol:

    Do they make them for STI levers?

  • This may be an oddball suggestion, but what if you put some of those things onto your fingers? That way you could keep your fingers warm on the handlebars as well as on the levers.

    You could market them as fingerwarmers.

    I noticed your knitted water bottle cover range online. I have a Teacycle pot designed to fit in my bottle cage. But I've found that the tea becomes tepid after anything more than 2 hours out in sub-zero temperatures. Do you supply knitted tea cozies? Preferably in British racing green and (essential) woven with Aeroprofile Kwiknwarm lambswool?

    I would love to see a full picture of that bike. Looks like a fashionista disaster to me.

    I'm sure that's something the "Knit-tech" boffins could work on, but at the moment their all in the wind tunnel trying to eleminate the vibration problems we're getting with the new skinsuit :D

    It comes with a tea-tray!
    Very useful for cake-stops. :D
