All it's missing is some 70s style go faster stripes.

I lucked out a few years back, spotted a Vado SL 5 rear wheel for sale on the bay. Possibly because of its unusual size nobody bid and I got it for £20, unused, the original owner was upgrading to carbon wheels. I missed out on the front wheel which was already sold. I have it on my bike ever...

Caliper.

What's with the boy racer bright red brake calibers?!

Chunky ol number isn't it? Whiff of Riese & Muller about its chunkiness.

Lovely looking bike. He made very attractive bikes as well as being such an innovator.

I think Stomp was referring to the very front of the front fender/mudguard not the lower back where flaps usually go and are indeed very handy for stopping spray up on feet and the motor. I think this looks like an extendable front part, perhaps to protect goods carried on that front rack, or...

It is set up as a commuter or utility bike & front racks are useful, the light being out front means it isn't obscured by any oversize bag or goods you strap to the front rack. Notice the rack is attached to head tube not forks so when the front wheel flops over the rack stays upright. Handy...

Is there rear sus incorporated back there? Bike looks more like an on road commuter version of the Tero.

Ben Delaney former editor of publications like Velo News and now YouTuber reviewer (and racer) of mostly gravel bikes, gives a fun glimpse inside the Flandrien Hotel & road bike museum in Flanders, including a fun lecture by the Aussie owner & firmer cyclist, of the evolution of race bikes from...

Marine grease. That's what the ebike motor repair centres in UK now add as standard when repairing motors, as they find most motor brands do not do proper seals.

That looks brilliant but total knackering! Reminds me of the rides I'd do with friends back in my teens, never knew where we'd end up, no phones, no maps, carrying the damn MTB half the time but when we found the perfect sheep path descent, all worth it!

At 19 you think they'll throw him straight into the tour? That seems rash to me, sure his performance is extraordinary but he's so young. I know France expects, but his biggest stage race before this week was winning Tour L'Avenir last year (Youth week long stage race for under 23s). I'd worry...

I watched that clip of Kelly winning Milan San Remo in 92 and heading up the Poggio I couldn't get over the number of motos, it was like a scene from Mad Max! I don't remember ever being concerned back then, but now it looks so dangerous and yes seeing drafting pisses me off today as well. re...

Its extraordinary. Be fascinating to see how Decathlon deal with him, he's so young but the entirety of France will be watching.

Though I got its location wrong! It's at Postbridge several miles down the road from Two Bridges, both tiny hamlets with bridges over the East Dart river. Dart river so Dart-Moor, the river Dart running to the sea at Dartmouth. Up in North Devon is Exmoor another moor on the river Ex which...

Paul Seixas prounonced Paul Shy-shas apparently, listening to a cycling podcast about today's stage!

Seixas wins stage 2, alone 1 min 25 over a chasing group of Roglic, Ujitbroeks, Lipowitz, Skejlmose and others. Only got the last 5km highlights so not sure what happened further down the mountain, but no doubt Seixas is announcing his credentials very loudly.

The Quartermass series is gilt edged Cult fare. Makes early Doctor Who look easy going.

Well I'm sure the Brits will get The British Experimental Rocket Group on the case...
