    For Sale Ritchey Pro V4 Micro Road Pedals

    A set of Ritchey Pro V4s in very (almost new) good condition. Very minimalist and the pedals and cleats weigh in at 250g I bought these a long time ago to replace my trusty Dura Ace PD 7410s ,as I don't use road pedals on my road bikes (I know, I know ;-) ),but I then managed to get a new set of...

    Flared bars in the Pro races

    Apologies if this has been around for ages. I was watching the Paris-Nice ,and in the run up to the finish, it looked like there were a few sets of wider/flared bars. Is this because some of the sprinters/ lead outs are now using them. Thanks :)

    In the words of Rick Astley "Never Gonna Give You Up"

    Could he have been singing about 9 speed XTR and Dura Ace kit? ;) 🙃 🤣 I never cease to be amazed at how long some of my 9 speed rear mechs, STIs and changers have lasted. So, what are your objects that refuse to die, and 'You're Never Gonna Give Them Up' :)

    A set of red Odyssey A brakes. Good condition but one of the noodles is a (brass) repair job as the alloy one split. Used these on a my MTB hardtail back in the day with good results.

    Mix and Match (Shifters)

    Hello folks. Is there any place where someone has compiled/listed the combinations of Shifter and Mechs that will play nice . For example, would an XT mech (9 speed) work with 8Sp Shimano 600 STIs or 10Sp SLX shifters work with a 105 rear mech? That kinda thing. Thanks

    Orange X2 shock upgrade

    Hello folks My Orange X2 frame has the standard coil shock . I have been wondering how much better the handling would be if I upgraded the shock to something that could be tuned a bit more. Has anyone tried this? Thanks
