Force torque wrench

Merlin price £40.00

We all want a torque wrench. It’s the sort of thing we’re forever picking up and putting back down again in B&Q. £40 isn’t exactly pocket change but it’s a very, very good price for a torque wrench of this calibre.

Merlin price £1.50

Some patch kits are rubbish. You know the ones. Thick, stuff patches without feather-edges. Dinky amount of glue. This kit has 7 high quality feather-edged patches, a generous amount of glue and a usefully sized piece of sandpaper. For a quid fifty.

These tights have a lot of uses. As well as being useful as a cycling layer, they’ll end up being used for all sorts of things. Running, hiking, camping thermals and so on and so on.

Flat seams for comfort. Double layer knees for durability and warmth. A bit of reflective stuff on them too.
