I do like the Krampus in black, was never really sure of spangley green one.
Today the postie has dropped off a pair of Jones loop bars for Pugsley and a long sleeve On One merino top.

Re: The post man's been ...
Look like the Whisky ones. Dammit, why didn't I buy a Krampus?!
Re: The post man's been ...
Whiskey No-9 forks
Pretty nice they are. Got them from keep pedalling in manchester, had them a while.
I like the green krampus too, but I like the dropouts on the ops better.
27lbs as the bike stands there. It is a 27tpi rear tyre with a tube in, so it will shift another 1 lb when that gets swapped and goes tubeless.

Haven't got the legs for ss so am 1x10 on mine, comes in at I'm 28.5lb with Travers Prong forks and a dropper. Looking at a set of Nexie Carbon rims for Spring to shift a bit of rotating weight. Otherwise very happy with it.

Re: The post man's been ...
Bought a HD video camera, SJ4000 I think, for £58. Thought it required SD cards but it is a mini SD card so waiting on one of those before I start on the sweary videos.
Silicone grips from Superstar as the foam ones I bought cheap locally were rubbish.
Ticket for Emily Barker and The Red Clay Halo in that London who are playing their final tour this autumn. Looking forward to it.

Re: The post man's been ...
Several parcels arrived here which will become a winter road bike with 28mm tures, proper solid mudguards and disks.
Just waiting for a kaffenback frame to arrive to put the bits on. Really wanted a kinesis tripster but will have to save up as the price tag for just the frame has an extra zero on the end!

2 Brooks saddles to complete my set and a Birthday tee shirt from Shona from Keep pedalling

Plus Alpkit stem cell, little light and the shaped dry bag for my Wildcat which fits perfectly.

The postie came and left a little slip that means a trip to Rotherham to collect my frame. Fortunately Helen is off work tomorrow and owes me a favour!ianfitz wrote:Several parcels arrived here which will become a winter road bike with 28mm tures, proper solid mudguards and disks.

A tiny Cuban angle wing tarp courtesy of Ianfitz. Seriously it packs tiny small! Need to figure how to pitch the thing now 

Re: The post man's been ...
SS chainring from Goldtech. Got fed up waiting for the Wonkey Rings to come back into stock

Re: The post man's been ...
A rather spiffing looking quilt from uk hammocks. I've gone for a summer fill, thinking along the lines that it should be good for both spring and autumn, and a decent percentage of winter being rated at -6
It seems like an efficient way of carrying down and a floor of the office test says its nice and roomy under there.
638g (in case you wondered)

Needlesports in Keswick have a few Siltarp 1's for £30 in their bargain bin upstairs!
And always thinking my Siltarp 1 was always just a little on the small side. I went on Neddlesports website and ordered a SilWing for under £40 with free delivery it would be rude not to. Cheers Hux

Cracking value as it also includes a very long length of guy line, a big tube of seam sealer and even a little brush to spread it over the long seam.HUX wrote:Thanks johnclimber
