Are they not normally £120 outwith this weekend?! 😂

I’ve done this too. Stick them on top of my trousers / tights on really minging days for an extra layer. They’re thick and pretty bulletproof. Look shit, but they work! I’ve been taking a couple of large plastic boxes with lids out with me for the last couple of years now (in my boot). One for...

Also one of the most knowledgable and helpful people on the forum too - depending on which side of him you were!

You’d have loved it when Gary was here. He used to spell MORE as MOAR! 😂

You added more to your post as you came across like an arrogant tool, and tried to dial it back a bit by adding more to it to soften it. I’m not taking offence (not offense btw 😂). People who come on forums and tell people they’ve made spelling errors seriously need to get a grip.

The original post said something like “Nonsense is misspelled. You need to change it.” Some people need to read the room and chill out.

I see you’ve edited that because you are the grammar police. This is an internet forum… not a school class. People misspell things all the time. Wise up! 🤷🏼‍♂️

These arrived today! They really don't look it from the photo, but they're the same metallic blue as the S-WORKS decals I have on the bike... with a silver background. Once I get the fork done, I have Invisiframe to put back over it too. The SLIK Industry Nine decals were slightly bigger than...

I was just looking at them too after getting the email! I was surprised at the sizing... but they all come with over 33" legs, which is good for us tall people! I can't wear quite a lot of trousers, as being 6ft 2" tall with a 32" waist seems to be alien to most sportswear manufacturers!! They...

If you get half way down this, it shows you the difference between them. https://www.bikeradar.com/advice/buyers-guides/freehubs/#:~:text=The%20SRAM%20XD%20system%20was,area%20on%20the%20freehub%20body. You'll be able to identify which freehub you have. 2 options... buy the right cassette...

I have Gore Endure Gore-tex trousers. I've been using them for years, and they're fantastic. They're an over trouser really, so I would wear either shorts under them on a reasonably warm day, and I wear a pair of padded ass bib tights under them on a colder day. I've only washed them a...

FYI - the head of Specialized’s “E” division calls it an Engine. An engine doesn’t have to be internal combustion… The definition of an engine is: a machine for converting any of various forms of energy into mechanical force and motion. Personally, I’d call it a motor… however it is also an...

I was looking at similar - but more like a heated element that you could jam inside a standard grip... Surely the external one is going to move about on the grip when you ride unless you glued it or something? Could glue it to an old set of grips I suppose?

Glad you're happy with them. For what it's worth, they look practically identical to the Sealskins gloves. Same battery, same pocket on the wrist, similar power / heat controls, and same gauntlet type glove. I should have taken this photo with the battery round the other way - so see if its...

My local bike shop. They ordered it for me the day the SL 1.2 was announced. There were some for sale on the usual bike websites… but I think quantities were limited.

Black Friday is only a bargain if something you already want to purchase is reduced lower THAN IT WAS last month! I have a couple of things that I want to buy… and I’m holding off until the weekend to see if they’re reduced. Most of these are not bike related… and most of them are Christmas /...

I’ve seen someone with a silver one in a Facebook group. The silver was what was originally advertised on various websites as the frame only option… and I was quite excited about not having a black bike! Unfortunately, the one that actually shipped was black… which is why I’m trying to add...

Putting the wires up the sleeves is a pain, however it makes the actual gloves better to wear as the don’t have the extra weight of batteries in the wrists. The Sealskins ones are sold specifically as bike gloves - but I agree, they’re probably more suited to something else.

I can’t see them releasing a ‘new’ bike and not keeping it for at least a year - if not 2. Yes, everyone knows it’s just the same bike with an updated motor and a few new components… but imagine the outcry if they release a KSL 3 (they are actually branding the new one as a KSL 2) within a year.

Here’s my winter glove collection…. Top left: Sealskins heated glove. Keep hands warm… but too thick to feel the bars and my hands sweat a lot - even with them switched off. Heavy with battery in pocket at wrist. A bit ‘gauntlet’ like. Top middle: Fox something - were sold as winter /...
