Have you heard of an amazing new invention called long sleeves? They're like short sleeves, but longer. If the long sleeves are too long you can get 3/4 sleeves too!! Cutting edge stuff.0 -

Yes, I have some of them thanks. They do long trousers too, for when you get old enough for them...

Then why the feck do you need arm warmers?! You're very strange, must be that hippie beard.0 -
My old geography teacher had sleeves like that on his blazer kowalski.
I guess there is a reason crc are knocking so much of them....they can't sell them.0 -

Haven't had that for years. Ed Oxleys doesn't seem to do his riding any harm though, lol.0 -

Who cares. At the end of the day no cycling gear is going to win any style awards, lol. Loads of folk love their Shimano AM41s, for example, despite the fact that they make them look like a special needs kid going to play golf.I guess there is a reason crc are knocking so much of them....they can't sell them.
All the better for me then.0 -
I guess you like dressing in leather gimp suits for your other hobbies!

Brand new 34T Works Components chainring for the Canyon. Got it from ebay for a few quid less than going direct, and hopefully it should be here early next week instead of waiting 2 weeks for Works to send one out!
Hopefully, the chainring + my bottom guide should be enough to keep the chain in place. The Canyon has a silly iscg tab mounting bracket so I would need to lose my granny ring tabs if I need to use a guide other than the Canyon one, which is only a bottom roller!0 -

looking at that office and how bare it is I reckon you won't be doing much work and with all that space it would be rude not to build itI'm going to blow the bank on a new build ( within reason ) NOW DONE!!

No, tis ht2 external, but I cant run a bb mount because of the bb shell and how the Canyon guide is mounted and I can't use a seat tube one because of the pivot!
I'm hoping that good chain tension and the Canyon guide will be enough, going to try it without a bash too.0 -
um...... just put a bid in on EBay for a Hammerschmidt crank set then found out you need them little tabby things to mount it on which the Carbine doesn't have. Never even crossed my mind, so trying to retract the bid, otherwise might have to buy a bike to put it on.I'm going to blow the bank on a new build ( within reason ) NOW DONE!!

Could always give it to me Richie!
You also need the hammerschmidt bottom bracket too I think!0 -
its in with the crank it was when i was looking for a bb press fit that the problem arose if iend up winning it I will sell to you Ben at cost. Coming in dead cheap at the moment.Proper shame I can't use it.I'm going to blow the bank on a new build ( within reason ) NOW DONE!!

They've even supplied a workbench just behind, how thoughtful.
Wanna see the nice shiny new bike pleeze.0 -

My pedals arrived today. They are not the pedals pictured on CRC's site. I suspected it was too good a deal to be true, guess they got their pictures mixed up. Hey ho, back they shall go.0

I was seduced by CRC's 10% discount code splashed across their homepage, so:
this (in 50mm flavour)
these (15mm rise, 750mm black flavour)
this (10mm flavour)
and these:0
