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.

Green needs to be seen in the sunshine, pictures never do colour justice

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.

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.

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!

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!

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.
