Post A Picture of Your Last Purchase

Finally I get 26" tyres after waiting what seems like a lifetime.

Schwalbe - Rapid Robs 26x2.25 very sticky on the rocks and very low rolling resistance if you're a cross country rider I'd give them a try, these will now be my spring rubbers until I can get my hands on a pair of Tioga 26x2.35 DH Factories.
 
Tioga make some cracking tyres I gotta admit. I like the Powerblocks. I almost got them for my bike, but decided I wanted skin walls instead. Which might have been a mistake, because to hold 110 PSI skin walls need kevlar lining which of course drives up the weight. They don't look as good as I thought they would either. I reckon Powerblocks would have looked much better.

Is where I am at now. I am at 70 PSI for the minute just to get everything rolling properly. The carbon post is a stand in too, I am waiting for the aero one I ordered. I bought this a minute ago.

Because I have to admit that the thought of my legs crapping out after four miles or so and then having to ride home on that slither of carbon worries me. I will chuck it in my back pack and get it out in an emergency :D I don't fancy hoop damage !

Going back to latest purchases (obs the gel thing) I got a few more bits. I've been a really good boy this month. I bought a new toilet seat (cause mine has perished from the bleach battering it gets) and a tool box to sort all of my crap. I got extra liquid, extra nicotine and then this..

Basically I thought about it and for two weeks I have not been able to use my MOJO (Tegra Android console very similar to Shield) because the BT controller eats batteries in less than a week. My Amazon voice remote does too, and I am tired of getting out of bed at 1am and searching a freezing cold flat in my undies. Screw that.. I will plug that in at the bed side, and then I will only have to go without for one night of one thing at most.
 
New Chair coming, had enough of this DXRacer, its so incredibly sticky when its a bit warm inside and wanted something that breathes properly.

Oh, nice! I've been seriously considering replacing my crappy office chair (that still cost £150) with a Teknion Contessa or something like that.

It actually became the blue one

But yeh this thing is like 725 euro, quite a step up from all the other chairs and definetly not a gaming thing, so done with those heh.

Gaming chairs are such a ridiculous phenomenon. It's absurd that so few have actually paired proper ergonomics and quality with the 'gaming' brand.
 
Yeah after 2 years on a DXRacer M series, im just totally done on it, and that was a 350 euro chair then, its just, they kinda outstay their welcome and degrade quickly, the headrest pillow lost most of its leather, its just a bag now really, the wrap for that also stretched out so it just would sag more and more.

Meh quality, big price.
 
Good company. I must say their finishing is nowhere near as nice as the Humanscale I bought, but at the price I am very happy. It's just a tiny bit stretchy and baggy is all, whereas the covering on my Humanscale is spot on.

Do be aware though it comes on a palette, and you will be responsible for it. I had an argument on my doorstep, and the driver relented and took it away. Then there was the enormous box lmao. Took me hours to cut it up and put it in black bags because it was double skinned. But hey, the chair got to me as intended so no complaints there :)

Palettes are handy for fire wood. :D Thanks for the info.
 
1More Triple Drivers - I heard good things about these so I bought them because my Shure SE215's are annoying to put on and are uncomfortable with my glasses. I personally think these actually sound better than my SE215's.

I also have one of these arriving on Friday. Finally got around to buying one of these so I don't have to worry about the charging time and can just leave them on and not worry about overcharging my batteries either since it automatically stops charging them if they're full.

Stickier is fun but they do wear faster. I used to love Yokos, but man you'd go through them.

Ideally you want something in the middle. Love the wheels too, Tom. They look fabulous. Do those cars come stock with Brembos? or were they upgraded? they look insane too.
