Cheers! Starting to think the white bar tape wasn't such a good idea though.. Rapidly becoming grubby looking.

Mine is explicitly declared on the house insurance. Not sure what that covers TBH. e.g. If I locked it up outside a shop and it got stolen, I don't know if it would be covered.

I can get discount on bike insurance through my British Cycling membership. Haven't really looked into it further than that though.

Got bike cover with my house insurance, a few quid extra over the year, tbh I'm not sure if it's covered out of the house though, been meaning to check.

Adrenaline is awesome off it though.

I'm glad I swapped my Tiagra groupset for SRAM Apex.

Took a wee bit to get used to but it's really nice to use now imo.

I just like my brake levers being fixed, and being able to move the shifting paddle towards me with my finger whenever I shift is awesome too.
