I remember reading an article a few years ago, is discussed who should of had lance's title in his last tour or something. Turns out you had to get to the eight dude before getting to someone who has never been associated with doping.

Crazy.

do any racks fit or do i need a 'disc specific' rack?

i think i was a bit naieve to think i could get decent lights for £35 so will have to up my budget.
what is the minimum lumens you guys would recommend for riding at night on unlit roads, which are usb rechargeable and last for around 2 hours? i have seen ones on ebay/amazon going for a reasonable amount but i'm not sure how long they would last.

i also dont believe that cheap waterproof pannier exist which is a pain.

Bas Keep is a hero.
As far as I'm concerned. Bas is BMX, always going fast always going high.

About 25 quid on a rack.
No more than a couple of kilos, mainly a spare pair of clothes and my lunch.

And about 35 quid on lights.
The route is mainly unlit so looking for something rechargeable, that can light up the way home.
