With the TT season rapidly approaching, can you avise when the thext skin suit order will go in? I'm after 2 large long sleeve suits.

+1 for a skin suit. No idea on sizing but I wear a medium race fit jersey if that helps.

Do you use lockrings?

So I'm a noob to the track and I've been advised that I don't need a lockring. Then someone said I'd be crazy not too. What is the consensus? Pending that, what is a good lockring to use and what tool is best to install/remove them? I have a chain whip, but no specific tool to do this at the moment....

Swaping Shimano Chainset - Loan of tools

Good point re derailleur height. Is there a good guide to getting the height correct? I've got the old chain so sweet on chain length.

Just checked that URL. That's the bit on the Park BB tool. Didn't realise it was a separate bit.

Re: Swaping Shimano Chainset - Loan of tools

You need the end of the Park tool BB tool to attach the crank cap to remove the side to side play. Then Allen key to tighten the non drive side crank to the spindle.

Re: Foam Roller question

I have one long smooth roller and one that looks like a meat tenderiser. The smooth one is good for rolling out tendons and the rough one is good for a bit of a massage (or torture). Then a tennis ball is probably cheapest an good to start out on. Move up to a cricket ball (or rolling pin)
