    Is there a preferred chinese carbon disc clincher wheelset (something in the 50mm depth range) with through axles? Is there any advantage to going non clincher?

    Any opinions on the following bike? https://www.planetx.co.uk/c/q/bikes/gravel-adventure-bikes/full-monty-SL I'm looking for a bike for my girlfriend. She's taken up commuting via bike. Looking for something a little more suitable and versatile than her current one. Ideally looking for mounts...

    Another q - is there any Kickr compatible software that isn't on a subscription basis? Not sure If I'm being old fashioned but I dislike that I could sink $120 a year in to a product and then have nothing to show for it at the end. I'm currently using the wahoo app which allows me to set an ERG...

    Sure I've asked before but what gear/brake cable inner and outers are people using? I need to replace on my 105 and ultegra bikes - I've previously used jagwire but not convinced £60 for two cable sets represents value for money. Similarly the lifeline stuff from wiggle is just burning money -...

    New commuter / winter wheels required. I'd like something reasonable, since I'll be riding them every day but nothing overly flash given the requirements. Was looking at these, https://www.cycledivision.co.uk/review/product/list/id/8262/category/491/, or potentially some racing 3s. Anything else...

    Surely 300w is 300w regardless of the weather, gradient, cycle of the moon. Maybe it's just me, but if I try and hold 300w then I sweat - a lot.

    Recommend me a good puncture resistant commuter tyre

    I commute on the 25c lifeline prime - they're £12 a tyre. A set lasted me about a year doing 18 miles a day. I only had any issues with them (puncture / sidewall fail) when I'd neglected to switch them over once they'd clearly worn out.

    They're reselling jerseys that are for sale on Aliexpress - so not exactly a bargain.

    Roady - if you're after some decent bibs, evans have a sale (3 for 2) on Kalf. You could pick up 3 pairs of Kalf bibs for less than the price of a pair of single pair of rapha. Otherwise, check out the ASV race from Wiggle. Obviously doesn't have the same prestige but I'm really happy with both.

    Has anyone here ridden in Majorca? I'm going at the end of August and unsure whether to invest in some new Alu rims or go with my carbon clinchers - don't really want to melt my wheels.

    Can you elaborate? Do you need two of the same size and screw out in alternating directions, or do they push out? Sorry to be stoopid..

    Can anyone suggest how to remove the front hub end caps? - my hub is similar to the front one in the pictures here : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ICAN-Carbon-Clincher-Wheelset-for-Road-Bike-38mm-Deep-Basalt-Surface-23mm-Wide-/111429147916?hash=item19f1b1dd0c:g:TgUAAOSwyDxXg0LE.

    Rule of thumb, when you tell your GF you'll be half an hour doing some bike maintenance you may as well write off the entire evening. Am I the only one who has to relearn how to fix their bike each time they need to do a job?
