I wasn't very impressed by the tape supplied by Light Bicycle. When I removed the rear tire(after 3156 miles) the tape was peeling up around the edges. When I installed the new tire, the old tape held air without sealant, but I'd rather be cautious.

Mr Unreasonably Sensitive is asking about *my* issue? Chill, bruh - I'm poking mild fun at the performance brand mixed with the decidedly not-performance-oriented brand (along with the rest of the bike, for that matter).

Light Bicycle WR56C02. Found out about these in the “Light Bicycle Wheels” thread. Couldn’t stop drooling over how wide these are (23i, 30e). And cheap (“cheap”). And aero. And light. I was a bit hesitant to go with Chinese wheels because of rim braking, but the temptation was too great. I'll be posting about them in the LB thread (along with all the others who have used these). Just wanted to give these wheels the exposure I think they deserve (on paper at least).

Clever Training gave me 25 VIP Points as a July 4th promo. I ordered a 3 month Zwift membership card for $20. Will come in useful this winter.

Nice looking kit! I'm a newbie drummer myself - just started in November (2018), and loving it! I figure I should probably learn to play and figure out my preferences before upgrading from my beginner drumset. Just like with cycling...

Almost forgot this one. Definitely a cycling-related purchase (as well as a moving and music related purchase).
