    I got the Garmin 1030 bundle cheaper than many places are selling the edge on its own

    So, I've a pair of Shimano mt3's, a set of M520 SPD pedals, and freewheel spline tool all winging their way to me.

    Am I right in saying that the pedals come with a set of cleats?

    I'd have thought they should do but if not and you're in Dublin I should have spare cleats you can have. After all, judging by your username we're basically the same person :pac:

    Hambini BB30 to Shimano one piece BB on its way to me. He machined it himself for me as they were out of stock and he wasn’t sure when they’d be back in again. Couldn’t ask for a better service than that!!

    Wahoo Element Bolt headunit, have never used anything other than a Garmin.

    Change is good, yeah?

    Its very good, I really like the Bolt, although my prior experience is only with the Garmin 500, which was also good, just not this good.

    Hopefully, my Garmin has had 2 major meltdowns so time to change it out. It will be sent back for repair once it's cost effective.

    The UI isn't as snazzy but as long as it shows me numbers from sechduled workouts I'll get used to the UI.

    This arrived today and been playing about with the set up. It is very different from the Garmin and will take me a little time to get used to the visuals I'd say.

    Setting up various profiles on your phone is a massive plus though the name for each on the unit would be handy.

    Set of wheels from fit wheels, their cheapest road rim brake alloy wheels. First time buying from them. Just need a new fork, bars and pedals and I’ll have the bike back in order.

    It was invaluable on a ride a while ago when a cable came loose from one of the shifters. I couldnt really get at the cable at the roadside to fix the connection so I was able to re-program the shifting to all work off the remaining functional shifter and run in syncroshift mode 2 :)

    above, and the battery status, oh I love the battery % :-)


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 19,474 Mod ✭✭✭✭Weepsie


    Carbon Canti/Disc fork that should make my steel tourer usable again and give me 2 options for braking. No rack mounts, but I never used them anyway. Going to be more a long distance mile muncher.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,566 ✭✭✭Trekker09


    A set of Vision 35 Comp clinchers for my commuting bike and a Jagwire internal cable routing tool

    New Jockey Wheels
    Wahoo Out front mount

    Tacx Neo 2... Recovering from a hip issue, and physio said I need to reduce my intensity on the road. So went for the "reduced intensity" spin and got a couple of strava PB... I have no self control on the road...so indoor while I'm recovering and physio gives me the ok for full intensity :(

    Very cryptic post.
    It could be an Aeroad, Ultimate or Endurace
    Also disc or rim brakes?

    Canyon Ultimate CF SL 8.0 rim brake coming tomorrow . I test rode the slx version as a friend has one. Some bike to accelerate and climb . Hopefully the SL version ( albeit at less than half the price ) will still have a similar feel !
