Replaced my eggbeater cleats. Initial testing indicates my unintended releasing problems may be solved
with spds?
eggbeaters suck balls.
Geez guys bring on the hate. But you’re right, I was having issues with them coming loose 
What I love most is that the cleats don’t scrape on the ground when I walk like SPD ones do.
for some reason ive always preferred clamping ‘downwards’, just feels ‘safer’ in my head, dont ask me why!
Its worse in my mind, seems more likely that something will to get in behind it (albeit very very unlikely), I like just behind the fork blade, clamping up.
+1
I feel nervous just looking at Jase’s skewer… (not a euphemism)
advice noted, will amend.
The way I do it… Front QR, pointing up, in line or just behind the fork leg. Back QR, pointing up towards the front in the space between the chain and seat stays.
Happy to be corrected though.
correct positioning is correct.
also accepted is full aero, both horizontal and facing the rear.
Also, re-cabled the brakes and rear derailleur on the CX bike and put the rear Tektro CR720 cantis on with new Kool Stop pads. So far the brakes feel like they will stop me as opposed to the Frogglegs which might slow me down. I’ve been running the front Tektro’s for the last week and have been pretty happy with the result. #blakeywasright
Always what Jln said, any other way is crazy, I’m too scared of it being bumped in a race or group ride
More polishin’ (drive side obviously not done yet).



^lookin good jimbo!
have always liked those cranks
Yeah, these ones were priced right, probably coz scored to the shithouse. Bench grinder took good care of that.
Laced three wheels. Razor to Athena front 2x with Pillar TB, Sanshin to Ukai 27 x 1.1/4 with 3x gal newbies front and rear. Fingers are a bit sore today…
Bars, bar ends, pedals.
Now deciding on Cloth or leather bar tape.
Wouldnt mind going full suntour, but that’ll require a suntour headset, BB and pedals (do they exist?)

very nice, id go black cloth, leather might look a bit chunky plus cloth ages nicely.
+1…newbaum, or cat eye do a nice black cloth with adhesive backing.
