    Grips slipping

    LOL... ahh, thanks for all the advice. I found this picture showing use # 1000 + 1 for duct tape. In the theatre business we use black gaffer (gaffa!) tape. We've even got a matt finish that doesn't reflect the light!

    Grips slipping

    My apologies if this has already been answered somewhere. I did do a search without success! Could I have some advice on stopping the grips from slipping off, please. I've heard hairspray's a goer... any experience? Thanks in advance

    Thought you might like that John! We have a commercial photographic backing at work - for our wardrobe bible photos. It adds a professional touch!

    My new Quest is here...

    My new Quest 559 arrived almost four weeks ago. It's required a modification to allow for my long-leggedness in getting the front derailleur to work. The more acute angle between the boom and the chainstay that I require did not allow the front derailleur to drop the chain on to the...
