Well actually that' a good point on the noise. I've currently got an Anthem with a Deore rear wheel and it's so so quiet that I have to shout at walkers as I ride ... [I live near Windsor and a lot of the walkers are old, I'm not abusive ;-] ... by them.
Hopefully the CK hub will get em thinking it's the blitz all over

2011 Mavic Razors (to be used on both the Marin and the Giant) plus 10% off using the CRC voucher Were £90 - got them for £80.99
A slightly cheaper alternative to my first choice - Sidi dominators.....

4 x black ano bolts (from pro-bolt)
All for the TCR0 -

+potato, I'm normally a 44, I had a 45 and they are snug but comfortable, tried a 44 and there was no chance of me finishing a ride with my feet intact
other than that they are a great shoe0 -

Arrived today with a Hope Headset, whoops must of got carried away with ordering. The Evil Sovereign frame is still on its way but should be here tomorrow then let the spending begin. Still not sure what colour scheme to go for other than keeping it dark since the frame is black with a few tasteful anodized parts to highlight it. 0 -
Bit OT but a reconditioned Canon Ixus 130- I've missed having a pocketable camera for riding, it seems weird that I video everything but never get stills. Man I love Ixuses.Uncompromising extremist0
