2 straps have died on me (only the straps though).  Was looking at the Pro, but the price.

The Pro better make me a pre-ride coffee for that price. I would rather buy two. The straps take a beating no doubt.

Bought the superfly frame off the hub, built it up with XT all round, slapped some vittoria's on it. 

Finishing touches done by the Bicycle Workshop, thanks Richard and Cecil ????????????????

Single bottle bosses and top tube internal cable routing makes that a Slade Trail.  Excellent choice, and hard to find now.  I’m told they’re very good on the techy trails, right?

You are spot on Sir.

Hard to find and thus so happy Chad gave the the option.

It handles well on the techie stuff, and actually doesn't climb too bad at all.

Did few black trails the wknd and she didn't feel out of place.

Glad she is with someone who can actually use her, very disappointed that it didnt work out with me, it is an amazing bike

Technically a work-related purchase. It would be a waste if was riding related, as I already have 2 GoPro's gathering dust due to the fact that filming my riding only reminds me how unremarkable my skills are ????

The idea is that I wear it on my hard-hat and walk around my construction sites (3 currently on the go at the hospital) to capture daily progress and create a 360 degree environment for raising issues, health & safety, coordination and snag listing.

The platform I use (Openspace.ai) uses a super-smart algorithm to turn a passively captured 360 video into a stitched 360 photo environment automatically aligned to the floorplans.

The green is the route I walked, capturing the better part of a ward in under 5min.

Anyway, enough about work, I believe the Insta360's have some awesome cycling related uses, as Matt Jones demonstrates
