Did you get those bottle cages fitted in Evans, apparently they only charge £12 to fit them a real bargain. :shock:

Let me guess, you bought the Rapha shaving kit, can't believe you shave your legs in the winter, surely it gets a bit chilly on your shins.

Cheers

Actually I did, a couple of weeks ago, but some cyclo-crossing across some fields and bridleways near my Aunts place in Wiltshire soon sorted that out, plus the damp salty roads!

Nah, there's nothing wrong with a Mach3! Some of us are more professional than others huh Marek? :P Bottle cages? Nah, if you look closely, you may just see the zip tie holding one of them on!!

Yep - they saw me coming too. Had to go for red to match the CW kit of course. Now if I can just get 'em back off Salem

Good man!

I liked the red too, but with orange team kit on the way that would have made for a sartorial disaster!!

So in which way are these better than the ratchet and velcro version I have from 2-3 years ago, also with carbon sole? I suspect they are even heavier. I am a big fan of Sidi but would consider the Specialized S-works for 20% less money, and considerably lighter, if I knew they would fit me as well as Sidis.

Well I got these today ... bargain - could have gotten 11 pairs for the price of the (discounted) Sidis :)

[quote="Sean Hogan - 何祥"]i'd love to, but mine are good enough for now. Even at £80 off they're still easily over £150 I'll bet.


Considerably 8)
