It comes in two sizes and last time I got some I think it was 69p a length. One size fits toptubes perfectly. The smaller size fits rear stays a treat.
Its brilliant and your bike I guarantee will never get scratched either in the shed, garage or house. Good for when your other half DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO STAND YOU BIKE UP AND leans it on the top tube.
STAGGER get some for your new bike mate.
I'll get some tomorrow, cheers Daz.
Just done 28m, bloody tough in to the head wind, only managed to average 12mph although the climb was 2700" and almost all of them were into wind.
Enjoyed it though.
