My 46cm Noodles are my first drop bars, installed with Pauls cross top
levers. They did ease the transition early with a more familiar flat
bar feel, but I ride mostly on the hoods, and after about 6 months, I
started ‘emergency braking’ (the brakes you jump too without thinking)
on the hoods too.
I commute in Melbourne, Australia, where I think the risk of theft is
moderate. I love the Kryptonite Mini, for its strength, size and
weight, compared to other U locks. I used to use the Sheldon method,
until I saw this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9fLtdZyX-A
I think Sheldon got this one
On my order I did ask for 'expedited shipping if possible'. I must
have lucked into an order that was small enough for this within their
fixed international shipping - I ordered on Wednesday 4pm, and was
delivered 10am Tuesday.
Awesome, thanks Rivendell!. My bike is now 'tour ready.'
quickly have people received their RBW parts orders to Australia?
Secondly, with the Nitto Marks Rack, do I need to find the nut and
bolt to fix the rack to the brake bridge hole in my fork, or does it
come with? I'm running V-brakes on my Surly LHT, so the hole is
currently vacant.
