Always a bit of a risk but from lots of research their seems 3 Chinese firms with good reputation for wheels (FarSports, Carbonzone and Yeoleo). Those 3 are bit dearer than other Chinese firms but get v good reviews. Fingers crossed!

Odd moan time.
Last night I did a 2 hour group ride that turned into a race on zwift. it was hard work and I sweated a lot... and I mean a lot. The ink in my nice Chinese bib shorts didn't enjoy all the sweat and heat and is now largely positioned on my (previously) lovely white saddle.
Still were super comfy though.

r0b1et I have a white Charge Scoop. It responds well to undiluted bleach to bring it back to white. Just make sure it has all been removed before you sit on it or your trollies will cop it. Suggest you dab a bit on somewhere as a test before coating the whole thing.

TBF, its on my crappy steel beast I use at my parents (almost exclusively as a trainer bike). And I think I just bought a new saddle for the Rose, so could be all swap-aroo on saddles anyhow.

Sure your boy will love his when they arrive.

I got hit by a large stone on my commute to work this morning, flicked up by a truck. Fortunately my 97p fake Oakleys protected my eyes while also having excellent UV proofing by their nature of being plastic. But they have a little scratch.
I'd have been livid if I'd been wearing >£100 glasses... though I assume the real Oakley's force-field would prevent the scratch too.

My garmin was a casualty from cycling 14 hours in the rain on Saturday. Bought a new one for £43 off Ali. Hope it turns out to be the bargain it appears, and arrives in time for next audax.

Too late now but mine played up and wouldn't connect after riding up the Col du Glandon in snow in May. I almost ordered a replacement but a few squirts of WD40 and a bowl of dry rice and it has been fine since.
