Got really F'd off with my bike stand over the weekend, then one of my bikes fell onto it and broke the tool tray.
The one I have must be 10+ years old and has done a sterling job, its just the feet are always in the way. thought i'd try a two legged jobby.

I’m sorry to say I’ve a stand like that and was a right bugger to use with the Ebike………,until I bought a “false crossbar” from Halfords. A sound £20 investment

Just ordered some RRP mudguards - still a fair bit of rain and plenty of stones kicking about on the roads.

Also looking to change my standard pedals for something wider - can't decide if I want to go for bronze on a Sage Green Levo or for purple.

Over the years I've had several cheap syringes for servicing forks. All of them have had the gradations wear off with oil contamination, so upgrade time with this bad boy. Mrs Rusty saw this & nearly called Frank.

Currently recovering from hernia surgery and it’s turning into a shopfest for my new Cube Stereo.

Gusset grips in orange
Front and rear RRP proguard minis
Sam Hill Nukeproof Horizon pedals
Peatys tubeless conversion kit
Noah & Theo sintered pads

Looking for a digital shock pump now, any recommendations?

agree, I have used an AXS dropper since they were released. this is a longer version that will better fit my new bike.

I've got a Topeak Pocketshock digital which seems to work well enough

how were you clamping it? seat tube or top tube?
Top tube, but awkward to clamp with the tapering contours and shape. I tried once on the seat post just kept spinning and the bike is heavy to hang of a telescopic component that’s prone to faulty operation.
I was all for taking it to the recycle centre but saw on this forum others using the false crossbar and it’s made using the stand so easy, especially when it comes to mounting the bike in the clamp

I bought a Crank Bros Highline 3 from a well known auction site, brand new unboxed (for an absolute bargain, a quarter of the new retail price)but It didn’t fit my Whyte E 150 RS……too wide a diameter to fit into the frame.
BUT the refresh kits are “one size fits all” so I fitted all the brand new internal parts to my original seat post and hey presto I’ve a brand new post save for the stationary outer sleeve which had an unmarked internal surface.

My wife saw these then looked at all the Burgtec Penthouse Flat MK5 colours and decided that she wanted the "Sapphire Black" limited edition ones for her Rail. Solved an upcoming birthday present conundrum, well partly anyway. ;)
Just got the Toxic Barbie for my wife... They seem to be putting out some nice stuff!

That new green is awesome! I’m debating swapping all my bronze bits out for it.
