Was after some GT85 as I'd run out, and spotted this:
Bargain. Just order it and pick it up from Tesco on a click and collect. I am now well stocked with the stuff..
🙂
....... alternatively if you really want to save your pennies just use a big hammer to release it and old chip fat to lubricate 😆
Hey,, it worked in the 80's ! I even used chip pan oil on me legs .. smokin! 😆
Or you could just pop to your local bike shop (Dave Hinde) and get it even cheaper!!!!
All you have to do is ask..................
I recently had a club member (who shall remain nameless) who bought a bargain cassette and chain from another supplier thinking he had a great deal and fitted the items himself only to find out that the cassette and chain he bought were 9 speed and his bike was 10 speed!!!!
Expensive mistakes can be avoided if only a little local trade is looked into.........................

It was me lol having thought all Tiagra were 9 speed. It's now on the winter bike 😉
............and here's me trying to retain you some dignity Jules! Easy enough mistake though.............

I have none Jim 🙂
At the risk of sounding like a broken record ..... this would never have happened if you rode a proper bike with 1 gear. 😉 Even a monkey can maintain one of those with ease and I'm living proof of that! 🙂
What? That it's easy to maintain, or that you are in fact living proof that you are a primate that disproves Darwin's theory?
lol
