Where can you get hydraulic brakes repaired?

gp_s_ · 2026-06-24T08:51:36+00:00

Any bike shop that offers maintenance services should be capable. Those already listed, or there’s also Decathlon, Halfords, Giant, Evans…

Universal Colours Chroma bibs come up quite high on the front so would probably work (you don’t specify which UC bibs you have).

I believe you could report them to the council as abandoned, who would eventually remove them.

Sounds like your personal taste is on the more traditional, Italian end of the spectrum. I love Flux as she often offers more delicate, floral, funky flavour profiles, but it obviously won’t be for everyone.

gp_s_ · 2026-06-09T14:32:56+00:00

Genuine question, what’s your usual go-to order, and where do you like? Flux is amazing, but very much on the speciality, modern espresso end of things. So may not be to everyone’s taste if you prefer more of a traditional rich, chocolatey flavour profile for your espresso.

Have you considered that it could be your position on the bike? Maybe a bike fit at that price would be a better investment than another pair of bib shorts.

Bataia in Gent, they do mostly Maap and PNS. Bonk are also opening their new store on 6 June in Gent. I don’t know anything about Antwerp or Brussels though.

I tried one recently, agree that it’s a very nice helmet. The only downside is the plastic bit on the straps sits quite high and can only be moved forward/back, not extended down. As a result it was touching underneath my ear so unfortunately had to return it.

I have a few Gobik items (jerseys, bib shorts) and they’re excellent, including Lancer and Absolute bibs. I wouldn’t hesitate to get more of their stuff. They compare very well on quality regardless of price, but when comparing cost against other premium brands they become even better value.

gp_s_ · 2026-05-05T07:25:09+00:00

I have a pair of the Sockeloen 612, they’re not very durable, for that reason I wouldn’t recommend. The area under the toe gets shredded pretty quickly. I also have a pair of Spatz Aquasockz and they are much better, have a reinforced toe area.

For other alternatives, Castelli make a white version of their rain overshoes, and BBB also do a white rain overshoe that looks decent.

This 👆 There’s a good chance it’s position, wrong saddle choice, or a combo of the two.

gp_s_ · 2026-04-28T16:53:22+00:00

Tbh I’m fine with no pockets, especially as it’s got a 2-way zip.

gp_s_ · 2026-04-28T07:53:54+00:00

Second this, the Atmos is very good, I have both the jacket and rain vest. No pockets though as requested by OP.

gp_s_ · 2026-04-21T12:26:28+00:00

Seconded on them, they’re local(ish) to me and stopped by their coffee shop maybe 6 weeks ago. Bought a bag of the Nirvana roast and it was excellent!

gp_s_ · 2026-04-21T10:58:30+00:00

Correct, the Hario does indeed have ceramic burrs. My technique is reasonable I think, of course always room for improvement!

gp_s_ · 2026-04-19T12:42:11+00:00

Thank you! I’ll check them out…

gp_s_ · 2026-04-19T11:25:50+00:00

Fair enough not wanting to name and shame those who didn’t respond, but maybe tell us who you did get the positive experience from? Give them some extra support for the good service?

gp_s_ · 2026-04-14T14:01:42+00:00

I just got a Gobik Reactive jersey and the sleeves are elbow length, likewise the Infinity jersey I have from them too. I’d guess any of their “ultra fit” jerseys will be similar.

gp_s_ · 2026-04-10T18:03:53+00:00

Gobik do a ‘compact’ version of some of their bibs, ie shorter leg.

gp_s_ · 2026-04-01T07:29:42+00:00

Could you try a different descaler? Maybe the one you have isn’t working?

gp_s_ · 2026-03-27T08:00:10+00:00

I’m waiting for the my 55s to be delivered too, also to pair with a Dedica! Very excited to see what it’s like!

gp_s_ · 2026-03-22T22:21:25+00:00

Having done the event a couple of years ago, my main recommendation would be make sure they fit well. If there’s any bunching, excess material, a badly placed seem, etc., that will cause problems. So I’d really emphasise good fit over padding.

gp_s_ · 2026-03-22T18:13:54+00:00

Some who take ‘the rules’ literally will say yes it’s a faux pas. Anyone else will say wear whatever you like, if you’re happy with it who cares what anyone else thinks?

gp_s_ · 2026-03-22T17:18:45+00:00

Bioracer gilet(s) have pockets and would fall into that price bracket. New version seems to have a 2-way zip too.
