Bought some of these to try as recommended by Chris Kilmurray, pretty comfortable and grippy so far. I usually use Imprint grips but are very expensive and i'm worn the latest set out after 2 years.

And a new Hero 10 Black as my old trusty 6 Black died on the flight out on holiday last month.

New 200mm (front and rear) SRAM HS2 disk brake rotors, 800/35 OneUp carbon bar, i9 Stem and Wolf Tooth remote.
 
Having been told that a Sram 10/ 52 cassette would be at the earliest Jan '23 into my LBS and knowing ( but ignoring ) the fact that both chain & cassette ..along with jockey wheels needed replacing a little while back I bit the bullet and replaced the cassette with a Sram 9/ 50 XD 12spd ..an XO chain and some " Made in Sheffield" jockey wheels from Uber Bike Components ..Oh.. errr also 9 rear spokes needed replacing ☺️...
At less than a third of the price for a top end 12 spd Eagle cassette..and the fact that shifting was just as seamless on its maiden voyage ..I'm well chuffed ..although my wallet was less so ..😂

Since spring has arrived (and is hopefully here to stay), it's time to get the bike ready for new adventures. Just ordered a few items ( all in stock, si everything should arrive soon... I hope):

- Assegai Exo+ MT front tire and Big Betty Super Trail Soft rear tire
- OneUp Dropper post with 210mm (replaces a 150mm post)
- Magura 220mm brake disc adaptor to use a 220mm rear brake disc. I'm already using a 220mm on the front and it's great.
- Shimano 220mm brake disc


I'm still thinking about buying a barely used Bosch PowerTube 625 a friend has no more use for... Could come in handy on some big rides in the Alps, but carrying another 4 kilos in the backpack...
 
Well…its a boring saturday evening here in Brazil so I bought myself:
A brand new Cube stereo hybrid 160 race 😃
To be waiting for me in Manchester next month when I arrive for a few weeks visit to my daughter.
Next, am going to buy badges of a few sites from the UK to sew onto my bike bag.
 
I've been promising myself a set of i9's for years and a new HT build for No2 and a set of 29er Lyric Ultimates for me means I upgrade the heckler wheels and go mullet and all the other bikes have a wheel swap.

So like this but un purple (obviously)
