Today, a set of KCNC skewers (in Black flavour) for the NRS. The Ti Kore ones, which were red, that have faded to a nice shade of Pink are starting to show signs of wear and battle damage. Also, the KCNC ones are a good 25g lighter... :D

    oh, you mean bike stuff.....
    You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.

    hmm, im the rare and fortunate position where i dont need, or more importantly, want anything for the bikes.

    i recently took delivery of a new joplin and that was the last bike thing i can see myself buying for a long long time.

    i dont know whether to be happy or sad!
