Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Learnt a lesson this weekend - yous all probably already know, but *just in case... Shimano don't make good chains! Mine broke twice this weekend, after 280 miles and 2 months of use 😱

I know, but twice in one weekend? And after 2 months? And I was just cruising along on the flat canal path the second time 😳. Trying a Sram one this time!

There was pie. And sweet, sweet descents. And hot brakes. And a lot of up. But no fat bikes.

Since the last appearance of Kaph, some time ago... there are now three wheel sizes, and now new plus (+) tyres for the even more adventurous!

26 / 27.5 (650b) / 29 / 27.5+ (650b+) / 29+ / fat
whatever you ride, enjoy it :)

Gravel also welcome :)

Also, is 26 dead yet?
