You just beat me to it - good price

I just topped up my specialized Rime collection at Je James for £30 a pair.

What's a suitable rim width for these? I suspect my current 25mm rims are a bit narrow

They fit very well on my 50mm rabbit hole rims

Is that 25mm internal? I used to run 3" tyres on Flows which was fine but didn't allow the lowest pressures to be run

See my separate rim width thread as to what I'm after.

Hope they are good as my HAB friendly Mavics have been sent back for a warranty claim after the ratchet buckle snapped!

I have the older version of these with the boa ratchet. I love them. They've done the HTR twice now and the heel padding is starting to wear away a little. I was planning to use them again this year but I've just bought a pair of these too so that I have some backup.

56% off montane minimus jackets at wiggle

I just got one of these down blankets for £20 as a top-up for our sleeping system when needed. It weighs 460g including the stuff sack on my scales. I think it is the same 'Costco throw' that the bespoke ultralight guy makes his hammock blankets from.

Thanks, some maps ordered to cover the Trans-Cambrian route...(just in case)

Superstar have NW rings at a tenner.

I have just bought this lightweight, credit card sized power bank for my mobile phone. It was £10 delivered. It is one to keep in the bag for those emergency 'oh crap I have broken my leg and my phone is dead' sort of moments. Weighs 86g on my scales and will put 20-30% into my Moto G4's battery. It has an integral wire and comes with an iPhone connection too for you posh people.

The Trans-Cambrian isn't *too* hard to follow especially if you've done any of the BB events since it passes quite close to BB Towers. There are a couple of "Wheeeee! Brilliant downhill" before you realise that the route turned off 200 metres back uphill moments Should be much drier than when I did it in March

Thanks Whitestone, I'm new to the area - must get along to the next WRT or similar though!

Thanks both, I was lucky and my size was available so I thought I'd give them a whirl as I know spesh shoes fit me nicely, but I've been using shimano for a few years now because I find them harder wearing and better VFM, but at £30 and another set of shoes on there way out, I'll see how these go.

Does anybody know if Apidura do a discount for 'boners?

Nope.

Edit - that's nope as in no discount rather than nope I don't know.
