Looking forward to fitting these PRO grips that arrived today from TredzBikeShop.

I love PRO products; glad I waited to find a nice pair of grips, and came across these by chance the other day.

They have a pressure optimized core and an internal fixture on the outer end. They have a 32mm diameter and are 132.5mm wide; there's a manual inside the packaging too.

They feel really well made, even inside the packaging, are pretty lightweight, and they should be pretty comfy - can't wait to try them.

Wearing these DHB gloves for the first time today and I'm pleasantly surprised.

They fit really well, and in today's hot weather temperature (24°C) my hands felt fresh and not sweaty at all.

The mesh material allows cool ventilation, and they grip the handle bar nicely with perfectly placed palm padding.

Thanks for the order Alex; I really enjoyed making these for you; hope you like them.

Add some love to your bike too, with a Perfectly Imperfect handcrafted seatpost accessory made by a cyclist just like you.

Once fitted to your seatpost, it'll help you find and maintain that perfect saddle height but with 100% precision.

Give one a try; you'll like it! 🙂🏁🏁🏁

Can't wait to try this Mavic Aksium set of wheels from Evans Cycles. (Thanks again)

I've been using Mavic rims from my early cycle-courier days, and my first pair were the 1990s 26 inch 32 hole SUPs

Without a doubt, and in my humble cycling related opinion, they're the best made rims with low maintenance durable hubs that roll on amazing long-life bearings - I'm yet to change my current 15-year-old bearings but on my Aksium rim brake wheels.

Surprisingly, I've not yet owned or ridden a bike at speed with disc brakes etc. so my first true full riding experience is something to eagerly look forward to.

A bike build is in progress with a Tiagra 10 speed grroupset.

Penton Rise awaits! 😁🏁🏁🏁

Looking forward to trying these Endura MTB gloves; courtesy of Sport Pursuit.

I've been interested in these gloves for a while after seeing and trying on a pair on a few months ago, but by chance I came across them at an affordable price, so thought to order a pair.

Snug and comfortable, these gloves have a well-made feel, and the palm padding is nicely positioned.

The suede-type material ensures good grip also in wet conditions, and the knuckle protection is not too obtrusive or feels uncomfortable.

There's no excess material in the thumb areas, and there isn't any of that over-tightness that's often experienced with these types of gloves (depending upon the hand size).

Endura cycling gear is pretty good, and I still have a couple of the baggy MTB shorts (with intact stitching) that are both around 25 years old!

These Adidas Terrex AX4 hiking boots are incredibly comfortable, warm, very well made, and are 100% waterproof.

Due to the Gore-Tex lining, considering going for the half-size option as they'll probably be a bit too tight (e.g. UK 7, go for UK 7.5); a lesson learned with the AX3 hiking shoes (trainers) that have a slightly tight right foot.

The Continental sole has a nice rubbery feel, ensuring maximum grip also in wet and slippery weather conditions.

The Adidas Terrex AX3 hiking boots look fantastic, and they can still be found via online searching, but I've finally found perfect hiking boots that are sure to last a while.
