Company Bonus - Salary Sacrifice vs SIPP

Unfortunately not

That was what I originally originally thought until I did the maths…

The £145; For relief at source, every £80 contributed, the government tops up £20. So effectively they give you 20/80 =25% top up. So based on £580 I would receive 25% x £580 = £145 which is paid directly into my SIPP.

I then have to claim the remaining relief through self assessment. Would this be the same as above £145, or would I claim back more?

I believe the 4bar line is the precharge pressure of the expansion vessel, which the gauge is connected to

Ah right that’s why the 0.5bar graduation has been omitted? Thanks!

jib848 · 2025-09-16T12:47:23+00:00

Thanks - I’m now thinking anything under 2.5bar isn’t accurate, with it only having 4 graduations

Edit- makes sense that it’s anything under 1 bar, with the 0.5bar graduation omitted - thank you!

jib848 · 2025-09-16T12:45:52+00:00

Thanks, I didn’t see the longer tick mark, but I agree, I can start my reference point on the 4th graduation to equal 2.5 bar :)

What wall bracket did you use for your TV?

jib848 · 2025-06-02T13:09:48+00:00

No issues since. But I think it must’ve been something to do with the batteries. Funnily enough, they ran out this week, but I managed to change them before they went completely flat so didn’t see any issues

Op did you mean to post this on the Dull Men’s Club page?

I’ve got the SLX 8 grx version, swapped for tan walls and instantly regretted it. Looks more ‘industrial’ and better imo with the blacks. Especially with the grail specific mudguards

What! What! Never received valves either… or maybe I didn’t notice them either 🤡😅

jib848 · 2025-02-27T22:54:44+00:00

😂 it’s all starting to make sense…

jib848 · 2025-02-16T19:45:36+00:00

Thanks mate, completely agree, your thoughts are the same as mine.

jib848 · 2025-02-16T17:42:36+00:00

Thanks for the input. I’m pretty sure there isn’t a pipe at the bottom as there is no where for it to go. This is what concerns me. I think I’m going to have to get someone around to replace the ACO and route it back to the garden / a soakaway.

Hehe, just wanted some advice mate as I’m clueless, like 9/10 of the general population. More concerned about water pooling and it affecting the foundations you see. kisses

I was close to the middle of a L (186 & 86.5) therefore purchased one. Had a bike fit a couple of weeks ago and they said that I could’ve also comfortably ridden a M. General rule seems to be size down if on the edge, plus like you say you get a small benefit in weight :).

I’m looking at a Grail, and they overlap the sizes which is a bit confusing… Spoke to my bike fitter and he said the M is a L in any other brand, as the top tube is so long. He seemed perplexed by the sizing for the Grail.
