Advice

Hi everyone. A slightly mad post, but has anyone raced/tt'd on a Moulton? I quite fancy putting together a TT machine that's a bit different......anyone got one gathering dust in a garage?

Hi all
I'm trying to shorten a KMC 9 speed chain, but cannot for the life of me get a rivet out using a normal chain tool. The KMC website says you don't need a special tool, but I've tried different rivets and they just don't budge. I've not had this problem with other chains. Am I missing something? Thanks for any advice.....

Can anybody recommend anywhere to get a decent bike fitting service ? I've got no issues with my mountain bike or commuting bike but any ride longer than about 40 mile on the road bike leaves me in pain, mainly on my back.....

Thanks

Hi Everyone,

Just wondered if anyone could give me some wheel advice as I'm looking to replace the wheels that came with my Boardman Team Carbon.

I've been considering getting some aero Cosmic Carbones. However, these will be my only set of wheels for a while so will be used for training, club rides and an Ironman distance triathlon in the summer. I'm not sure how much of an advantage these would be in terms of aero dynamics. Weight wise, they are about the same as the Ritchey wheels that I'm replacing.

I have used Look pedals for the last several years...originally the Look Delta and then Look Keo for the last five years.
Yesterday I had a look at the amount of play I am getting between my cleats and pedals and was amazed how bad it has got! I have four sets of Look Keo pedals and the play on the ones I have used the most, even with a new cleat, is totally unacceptable. This has been caused by wear of the contact faces of the pedals.

Hi all
Am I right in thinking that a shimano square taper bottom bracket is not the same taper as a campagnolo one? I'm putting together a hack bike out of bits,z but I suspect I will need to buy a new bb to fit the campag chain set.
Cheers
Roy

Does anyone have experience with DT Swiss suspension forks? I have found some on CRC with a big reduction but don't know much about them, reliability, servicing etc.
Thanks, Simon.

I'm on the look out for some clipless shoes I can use with double sided pedals. Any recomendations for both the pedals and shoes? Ideally I'd prefer not to have to change out of the shoes once at work, but are there shoes with flexible enough sholes to allow this comfortably? Ta.

Was down at bike plus today, they've got some really quite impressive deals on Rocky Mountain bikes.

About a grand, bit more off the RRP. Nice looking bikes, seen some good reviews, and Connor's got one so they must be pretty bombproof!

If anyone is interested bike plus have got a pretty good deal on some racey shimano shoes. Can't remember the model at the moment but they look like this- http://shimanoshoes.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/shimano-mtb-shoes.jpg. I've been running a pair all summer and they've been great for racing and long rides. If they last as long as the old pair they've got a good few years in them too.

Carbon soled race spds, they were going for 55 quid. Can't go wrong.
