    Yup Raleigh, that was me
    Yup Raleigh, that was me 🙁

    The Volagi bike didn’t come off because of the postage, I “wasn’t a suitable character to be entering America” when i tried to get travel documents and it was going to cost as much as the bike even with heavy discount to get it here.

    The Keith bike is even worse though after getting a quote from them, $190,000 Taiwan dollars with is just over £4000, that was for a wheelset, frame and handle bars, so without a groupset. As much as i love the look of the Shadow bike and i’d like to be riding a bike splashed in my name, at this point in time, i’m not spending that much on a bike :”(

    New pads will always help
    New pads will always help with braking. As you have listed your levers and shifters separate then i’m guessing they are not STi’s? i.e Drop bar levers?

    If they are flat bar, look at the end of the lever, maybe unscrew the tensioner a little, see if it gives you a greater braking force

    Just incase i’m wrong and they are STi’s, i’ll also add this >>

    I’m not going to pretend to be an expert with brakes, but there are a few people around who might confirm what i’m about to say and elaborate on it for you, although i’m unsure if it relates to Sora shifters.

    I’m sure there is a way to adjust your shifters (a spring tension?) that can give you more or less braking force on your levers?

    I am indeed, if everything
    I am indeed, if everything comes in around the right price, I’ll have the shadow frame, shadow bars, the wheelset as seen above, had the option of 45 or 85mm deep, went with 45 and then just need to get a groupset/finishing kit, but they might be sourcing that for me…..Di2

    My name is Keith 😉

    After a number of emails back and forth i’ve been offered two frames, either a Pegasus in orange OR the brand new (did you see it in Taipei Mat?) Shadow in red, I have huge images of them, but there will be scaled down for the forum

    If you have a rider ‘greyed out’ in your team can he still earn bonus points for being on the same team as the winner?

    I can think of a long answer……so simple one. NO 😉

    Endura socks are in my opinion some of the best quality best priced socks around, They have never failed me, never go bobbly in the wash, keep my feet dry and sweat free, i couldn’t recommend them highly enough
