I have stops on my frame so that shouldn't be a problem...it's the full length rear brake outer on a big frame I was worried about.
You can get them cheaper?

No gear cables with those. Although I don't know if you could buy two gear cables for less than £3.50

I bought mine from someone with 'grace' in their username and I got gear cables with mine. Paid an Outrageous £6.50 though. I'll see if I can find the link.

PHD bargain box has had a bunch of stuff added. They've also released their Autumn Race collection - couple of bags and a jacket this time around.

No problem, got myself a messenger bag. The duffel bags are very tempting too, but can't afford them this month

Not sure if it'll end up a bargain, but there's a Fargo frame on eBay for local pickup only in mid Wales

I've had two of the proper pillows by the same company and they are rubbish. They burst far too easily. Buy a mammut one instead.

I was in the outdoor shop in Skipton yesterday and they had 30% off sleeping bags. It seems that Blacks have a sale on at the moment and this is where the price reduction is coming from. I don't know about the quality of Blacks kit (I'll start a separate thread) but I did consider this:
http://www.blacks.co.uk/equipment/62005 ... g-red.html as good value for a 3 season bag.

Lock for £1, although the delivery cost bumps it up to nearly a fiver, so only worth it if you're buying something else at the same time.
