I haven't touched my cable operated disk brakes in 7 years.

Agree with the other comments, cable disks are horrible things.

Methinks, given the nick of Nizzys steering for a long time, perhaps better than most at adapting to a problem, rather than fixing it

This is a good website for routes on the National Cycle Network: http://www.sustrans.org.uk/ncn/map

Might be a decent deal for someone...?

Plus an extra 10% off when you add it to the basket apparently (credit to hotukdeals..)

Worth noting it's a woman's bike. Further 10% off with seloc membership too. Just sayin'.



I see canyon bikes have their top Alu frame with a reasonable spec and ultegra Di2 for £1700 ish. Tempted, of only I could do it justice.

Strange thing is now that it's all fixed I kind of liked it before.

Yea,

This also is a very useful site for planing and plotting cycle rides;

If you have a smart phone, the bikehub app is good for cycling navigation - it includes cycle paths and cycle routes as well as ordinary paths.

I'm finding Google Now is good for routing cycle routes now as well.

Cycle boffins... Can anyone recommend me a reasonable training stand resistance thingy? Will any cheap Halfrauds one do, or is it like rowing machines where they all feel very wrong unless you spend a billion quid on a water-resistance one?

26" mountain bike wheel, not a road bike, if that makes any difference. It'll only get light use (if any ).

Ta chaps!

First of all, why are you considering a Cycle Trainer at this time of year when the weather has been so good?

It's usually a winter purchase.

Have a read of these four:

This looks a good deal: (I bought one like this 20year ago and it's still going strong, unlike me)

Also put on a semi-slick tyre and keep your good tyres for outside and it will be less noisy too.

Better still, use some of your cash for some waterproof overshoes and get outside.
