Helmet broke so I bought a new one. Was doubting between the Oakley Aro5 and the Abus Gamechanger, might have liked the first more but the second fitted better so bought that.

Time Xpresso 10s from 2014 broke - loose and wobbly on the axles. Not sure when it happened, but just noticed. So, trying these.Image

Been searching for one of these for years after the original started to split. It's a pretty rare 25.0mm diameter and I've had to make do with a Thomson inline post as that was the only size I could find in the meantime. Ebay has these pop up occasionally in a shabby looking state at silly money and normally they're the polished version rather than the matt finish. Well now I have one thanks to https://www.bellatisport.com/ they were showing available and for just £90 I have a brand new one so I'm thrilled. I'd read some good things about Bellati on here so had no worries about purchasing. :thumbup:

Having starved myself for nearly the whole winter, I can't get my body any lighter....
Truth! Same here. :wink:

<><><><><><><><><>

Finally got my paws on a Fabric Lumaray. (review here: viewtopic.php?f=14&t=146211&p=1390285#p1390285)

Now I've got to decide how I'll mount it to my machine:
- My new dual-sided RWD mount has a lot of space between them, but I won't ever see the light hanging down when I'm riding - double ugh
- Stack the two on my existing single-sided RWD mount and see if I care for the elevated Garmin position above the stem line - ugh

That's a tough dilemma there - the raceware mount nicely place the garmin in line with the top of the stem, and elevating it is a no-no for me...

In a quest to go even lighter and optimize aesthetics, I impulsively purchased these at R&A yesterday. Now what to do with SRM powermeter...

Not exactly "bought today" since I got some of the bits earlier but picked up today at my trusty wheelbuilder: A set of spring/summer wheels (Boyd Altamont ceramic, Carbon-Ti hubs, Sapim CX-Ray spokes). 1455 grams as pictured (with rim tape).ImageImageImage
