I’ve been trying to find an AXS dropper post for a couple of months now - I have stock alerts set up all over the place. Sigma keeps saying a date and then pushing it out - currently they think mid-August, but I’m not holding my breath.

It is a bad time if you want bike parts and I can't see it getting much better anytime soon :(

Was out today and getting a clicking noise from my front fork. Any idea what that could be? Locking front suspension made no difference. Seemed worse when I was seated.

Skipped Wales and did 4hours on the chase this morning testing tyres for next weekend.

All is good.

Thanks. I've given it a good clean today to see if that helps remove anything. Will try to recreate the noise later.

Lots of very fast rolling tyres used here this weekend. Currently it's pretty dusty but not too loose. Has been some very good racing this weekend. And then some who could do with some skills training.

I'm having grip issues on the singlespeed as it is so dry. Lots of wheel spin under heavy torque today.

Life got in the way and missed a trip to Plymouth, tried to keep up via Twitter but not as comprehensive as I would have liked.
Early start for next 2 days to see if Tom and Evie get good rides.

I’m supposed to have a work call at 8:30 tomorrow morning, but I might try and cancel it…

Since the last appearance of Kaph, some time ago... there are now three wheel sizes, and now new plus (+) tyres for the even more adventurous!

26 / 27.5 (650b) / 29 / 27.5+ (650b+) / 29+ / fat
whatever you ride, enjoy it :)

Gravel also welcome :)

Also, is 26 dead yet?
