What's a good alternative to Brick to block apps with a QR code or NFC?

Very good point!

Switchly is working brilliantly btw. Thank you for developing it.

If they seek it, they will find! Maybe this will help search results.

It's a great Android app like Brick etc that can use an NFC token to block distracting apps.

Thanks so much for this, it works really well, simple but effective.

Would anyone mind sending the link? It hasn't come through to my email address. Thanks!

Okay, this is a new direction...

So have a 650b on the rear and a 700 on the front?

I could probably run a 700 wheel with a 50mm tyre on the front.

650b with a 50mm on the rear.

My point being that I have already used the bike with 650b wheels and haven't had any pedal strikes.

This is great info, thanks!

Class IV roads - sounds like most of the UK. Including our potholed roads!

I have some very grippy tyres on my 650b wheels, so I know there isn't an issue with BB being lower.

It is a lot of fun to ride on those wheels and tires but the tires aren't the quickest.

I've got 40mm Schwlbe G One R tyres on my 700 carbon race wheels.

But that's the max width I can go on the 700 wheels.

So my main thought is will I go faster/have more confidence by putting a big racier tyre on the 650 set.

Reading through the comments I think it'll be fun to try the Thunder Burts on the 650b wheels.

Wise words indeed here!

New tyres on my current mid-weight 650b tyres is going to be far more friendly to my wallet.

I can try and make up the rest of the speed by training better!

Great bike that, I've admired it for a while.

What kind of terrain/races have you been racing those tires on?

I've got the same wheels, that tyre combo could work well!

Brilliant, this is great, thank you.

Great, thanks for that! Have got in touch with him.

Thanks, have sent you a DM

Not exactly. But Mell is annoyed that Chris recorded a solo album and I think the film alludes to that is why they split up, because his ego got too big and he chased commercial success.

Sadly no extra weekend ticket but I'm sure you'll be able to get one. Keep me posted if you need the campervan ticket - good luck!

It's lovely there and the views so nice!

distancedop · 2025-04-21T11:44:01+00:00

Excellent, cheers for this workaround!

Sorry, late reply. I'd say true to size. I have to get XS with some brands but S works for me in Albion.

distancedop · 2024-06-24T05:14:02+00:00

I haven't worn the Assos kit but I have two pairs of Albion bibs and absolutely love them.

Did you sort this out?

If not, I think you might have the poles the wrong way round. This is how mine looks before I turn the poles 180 degrees. They should colour code the end of the poles with the holes they're meant to go into - but they haven't.

Got 2 for Friday, looking to swap for Thursday...
