John Hanley Scarves
John Hanly scraves are available in Robert Smart Menswear in York. Established in Ireland in 1893, John Hanly & Co Ltd specialises in the manufacture of scarves, throws and fabrics in wool, cashmere, lambswool, mohair and natural fibres.
With over 117 years in the textile business, the art of weaving has developed using modern technology and machinery and Hanly's now manufacture fabrics and accessories for top brands, designers and quality retailers around the world.
With their own water turbine John Hanley produce approx. 30 percent of our electricity requirements. John Hanley now purchase the balance of our electricity requirements from a provider who produce all their electricity from hydro generation. We are therefore proud to be able to say that all our electricity used in our factory comes from renewable sources.
John Hanly & Co Ltd was established in 1893. The company has always been under the management of the Hanly family and Brian Hanly is now the fourth Managing Director. It is located in Ballyartella Woollen Mills, approx. 5 kilometres from Nenagh in County Tipperary.
Before moving to Ballyartella , Denis Hanly and his son John operated a number of hand looms in South County Tipperary, approx 40 miles from Nenagh. In 1893 they moved their machinery to Ballyartella in the North of the county. They took over a vacant mill beside the Nenagh River and a large wheel provided the power necessary to operate the machinery.
The business expanded to spinning and carding, the main products being flannels and blankets. At that time, all products were sold within Ireland and the UK under the guidance of the founder's son, John Hanly who became Managing Director.
Business continued in this way for many years. Local farmers brought their fleeces to the mill for purchase. Spinning, carding and weaving took place within the six storey mill.
In 1950 the company suffered a major set back. A fire within the mill meant that the factory was virtually burned to the ground. The family home of John Hanly which was beside the mill was also destroyed by the flames. A two-storey structure was all that remained of the original six stories and this is still part of the existing mill and is now used to house the yarn for weaving.
After the fire it was decided to discontinue with the spinning and carding operations and the business now concentrated on the weaving trade and was built up from virtually nothing. It became necessary to buy in all raw materials and the cloth was designed and woven in the mill and finished by specialist finishing companies – this practice continues today.
The company first employed a full time designer in the 1950's and began weaving more varied types of fabrics for the apparel trade. With the advent of free trade in the early 1960's, John Hanly & Co Ltd joined two other Irish textile mills to export their products to mainland Europe and the USA. After many years of successful co-operation the companies went their separate ways but had built up useful contacts and agents in relevant markets.
Since the early 1970's, the company has been involved in selling fabrics directly to Germany, Italy, France, Belgium, The Netherlands, UK, USA and Japan. This impressive list has now expanded to include Korea, Australia and Scandinavia. In the late 1970's the company introduced it's first accessories range with a collection of blankets and lambswool scarves. However, at this stage fabric was still the main product being produced in Ballyartella. Around 75% of fabric production was for ladies wear and 25% for mens wear, this has been a continuous trend during the decades. The main end uses are mens sports jackets, womens jackets and skirts. Hanly fabric is normally of the classic type with the main colour themes of each season being used. John Hanly & Co Ltd export most of their fabrics to designers and well known brands all over the world.
In the late 1980's the accessories line of scarves and throws was extended using different yarns offering customers a greater selection of products. During the early 1990's the demand was so great for Hanly scarves & throws that a stock supported service was implemented for this side of the business. This means that in our warehouse all the scarves & throws that we manufacture are on shelves waiting for orders from our customers and agents around the world. With the growth of the accessories range, fabric production and accessories production is now 50/50. Hanly fabric and accessories are sold to top brands, designers and quality retailers around the world.
John Hanly & Co Ltd is steeped in tradition and guarantees that the products produced are of excellent craftsmanship, outstanding quality and are timeless in their beauty.

Diesel FW 2014 Men's and Women's Collections available at Robert Smart Menswear
Denim, leather and military, the foundations of Diesel that fuel its creative DNA, define Diesel's Fall Winter 2014 men's and women's collections. Inspired by contemporary and natural worlds, artistic director Nicola Formichetti edges the brand's core aesthetics into new ground for a lineup of formidable yet wearable clothes created with Diesel's unmistakable signatures.
"This season I wanted to explore the other side of Diesel, which is fun loving, and a little bit ironic — it's very free spirited. I was imagining who we are: urban nomads who travel around the world, and go to different music festivals like Coachella and Glastonbury," Formichetti said.
Music festival inspiration breathes easygoing attitude into Diesel's key military looks. Classic military wear of army green parkas and jackets are contrasted against patterned fabrics and soft shapes. They top long lace or tulle slip dresses, or are layered over washed cotton shirts and vivid striped, marled and leopard knits in cozy brushed mohair or alpaca. Floral and check shirts come patch-worked or in edgy constructions, like a men's design which features one checked fabric in a vest over a shirt made from a diverse check. Military uniforms lend structure and clean lines to outerwear: officer style black wool coats with gold buttons, down bombers and hooded jackets with fur trims. Dresses, one long-sleeved in boiled wool, the other a sleeveless shirt dress in army green cotton show the diverse sides of formal and casual military wear. Insignia resembling military rankings, and multiple patches and tabs on boiled wool bombers, hooded sweatshirts, and as jacquard designs in fine wool and cashmere blend knits create Diesel's own army.
Authoring new leather constructions each season, Diesel leather is founded in tried and true and novel inspiration. Timeless leather references of the motorcycle jacket and military styles are given new finishes. A washed black biker jacket's faded finish resembles soft acid wash denim with striking accents of studs on the collar and epaulets, and red and blue leather trim on zips and pockets. An aged, lived-in tan women's biker plays its toughness against a sheer organza floral shirt. Military aviator and bomber styles – some with shearling collars – add uniform style polish paired with the collection's innovative denim. Leather is mixed with other fabrics to invigorate traditional outerwear, leather arms on a cotton parka or wool bomber. Formichetti's fascination with urban nomads adds texture to narrow silhouettes via shaggy long fur vests and coats, and creamy shearlings with oversized collars and lustrous leather trims.
Denim, Diesel's genetic code, is produced with an artisanal, couture hand. Designs are matched with treatment innovation. Scored and ripped all the way down the leg, and re-patched, a pair of over washed jeans "look a hundred years old and will last another 100 years," Formichetti says. Dirty denim, staining on jackets and jeans that look like they have absorbed the natural hues of earth, further soften washed designs. Rain Block denim is completely waterproof denim in a jacket and pants. A new skinny jean features ergonomic seams in compact high stretch denim that flatters and adheres to the leg. Denim jackets, shirts and shirt dresses are destroyed, crumpled or spot-washed, so that fade marks give the fabric a lived-in appearance and comfortable feel. For the black carpet, denim is cut in a tuxedo jacket and with black lace for a dress.
Accessories are shaped from rigorous military shoes: lace up boots, polished black platform pumps, mirrored gold thick rubber soled oxfords for men and women. Structured bags are crafted from army green flannel, or leather satchels bound with black leather straps.

Harris Tweed
Robert Smart Menswear in York are a Harris Tweed stockist. Harris Tweed is cloth that has been handwoven by the islanders of Lewis, Harris, Uist and Barra in their homes, using pure virgin wool that has been dyed and spun in the Outer Hebrides. This is the definition of Harris Tweed contained in the Harris Tweed Act of 1993 and it ensures that all cloth certified with the Harris Tweed Orb symbol complies with this definition and is genuine Harris Tweed, the world's only commercially produced handwoven tweed.
The story of Harris Tweed is the story of a remote island community that lies between the Highlands of Scotland on the north west tip of Europe and the North Atlantic Ocean.
For centuries the islanders of Lewis, Harris, Uist and Barra have woven the magical cloth the world knows as Harris Tweed, Clo Mhor
in the original Gaelic- 'The big cloth'.
From time immemorial, the inhabitants of the West of Scotland, including the Outer Hebrides had made cloth entirely by hand. As the Industrial Revolution reached Scotland, the mainland turned to mechanisation but the Outer Islands retained their traditional processes. Lewis and Harris had long been known for the excellence of the weaving done there, but up to the middle of the nineteenth century, the cloth was produced mainly for home use or for a purely local market.
In 1846, Lady Dunmore, widow of the late Earl of Dunmore, had the Murray tartan copied by Harris weavers in tweed. This proved so successful that Lady Dunmore devoted much time and thought to marketing the tweed to her friends and then to improving the process of production. This was the beginning of the Harris Tweed industry. At that time the method of making this handmade was as follows:
The raw material, wool, was produced locally and part of it would have been used in its natural uncoloured state, the rest was dyed. In the 19th century vegetable dyes were used. Following dyeing, the wool was mixed, the shade being regulated by the amount of coloured wool added; then it was oiled and teased; the latter process involves pulling the wool apart to open out the fibres. The next part of the preparation, carding, results in the fibres of the wool being drawn out preparatory to spinning. This was a very lengthy process followed by spinning carried out on familiar spinning-wheel by women. Until the turn of the century a very early type of handloom was used for weaving with a manually operated shuttle. The final process is finishing where the tweed is washed and given a raised compact finish. The involved in this process was often accompanied by songs in Gaelic.
As a result of the marketing efforts of Lady Dunmore, increased sales of the tweed were achieved and trade was established with cloth merchants in large towns in the UK.
At about the turn of the century the primitive small loom was replaced by the improved "fly-shuttle" loom. This was made of wood and heavier than the earlier loom tending to make weaving an occupation for men rather than women. Although originally imported from the Galashiels a local joiner started making the new type of loom in 1903.
Between 1903 and 1906 the tweed making industry in Lewis increased rapidly. Mr Aeneas Mackenzie's carding mill in Stornoway added spinning machinery and a second mill was started by Mr Kenneth Mackenzie from whom one of the largest Harris Tweed producing companies in existence takes its name today.
At a meeting in Stornoway in 1906 efforts were considered for placing the industry on a more satisfactory footing. This was a most harmonious meeting and as the Trade Marks Act had been passed in 1905 making provision for a registration of Standardisation Marks, it seemed to be novel opportunity to end the increasing practice of offering mill-spun tweed as genuine Harris Tweed.
This meant the introduction of a system of whereby the tweed was inspected and, if passed, given a certifying stamp which would give confidence to the trade and public. A company limited by guarantee was formed under the title The Harris Tweed Association Limited. This was mainly to ensure the grant of a mark and an application was filed to register the well-known Harris Tweed Trade mark consisting of the orb and the Maltese Cross with the words Harris Tweed underneath. One of the objectives of obtaining a Mark was to protect the industry from the competition of the spinning mills.
The original definition read,"Harris Tweed means a tweed, hand-spun, hand-woven and dyed by the crofters and cottars in the Outer Hebrides".
The Certification Mark was granted in 1909, registered in 1910 and stamping began in 1911. Amended Regulations were confirmed in June 1934 and the following was promulgated, "Harris Tweed means a tweed made from pure virgin wool produced in Scotland, spun, dyed and finished in Outer Hebrides and hand-woven by the islanders at their own homes in the Islands of Lewis , Harris, Uist, Barra and their several purtenances and all known as the Outer Hebrides".
There could be added in legible characters to the Trade Mark, the words "Woven in Lewis", "Woven in Harris", "Woven in Uist" or "Woven in Barra" for the purpose of distinguishing where the tweed was made".
The alteration in the Trademark Definition in 1934, allowing the use of millspun yarn, enabled the industry to make a huge leap in production. The stamped yardage increased tenfold and continued to increase till the peak figure of 7.6 million yards was reached in 1966.
The Hattersley single width loom The introduction of the Hattersley domestic loom in the 1920s enabled the weavers to produce more and to weave complicated patterns that could not be woven on the large wooden looms that were used for the previous 50 years.
This loom was brought to the islands by Lord Leverhulme who owned Lewis and Harris for some years and introduced many changes with mixed results.
The Hattersley loom is still used in the industry but is being replaced by the new Bonas-Griffith double width loom which was introduced in 1996 to satisfy market demands for wider, softer, lighter Harris Tweed. The Harris Tweed Association was the proprietor of the famous "Orb" Trademark. Throughout this century the HTA protected and promoted the Orb all over the world. The success of the industry meant that competitors tried to imitate Harris Tweed or pass off other fabrics as genuine. Much of the competition was from mainland Scotland and this led to a case at the Court of Session in 1964 that was, for a long time, the longest civil case in Scottish legal history. The judgement by Lord Hunter re-inforced the 1934 definition that tied all production processes to the Outer Hebrides and removed the threat of mainland competition. The years following the 1964 case were the most successful ever for Harris Tweed but, by the late 1980s the industry had begun to contract as fashions changed and the Harris Tweed jacket became less popular. The industry set out to transform itself by:
- producing a new double width loom
- re-training weavers
- introducing new, tougher Standards
- marketing the new wider, softer, lighter tweed.
The Harris Tweed Authority took over from the Harris Tweed Association in 1993 by Act of Parliament. Thus the definition of Harris Tweed became statutory and forever tied the cloth to the Islands:
Harris Tweed means a tweed which has been hand woven by the islanders at their homes in the Outer Hebrides, finished in the islands of Harris, Lewis, North Uist, Benbecula, South Uist and Barra and their several purtenances (The Outer Hebrides) and made from pure virgin wool dyed and spun in the Outer Hebrides.
The late 90s are a difficult time for the British textile industry and Harris Tweed is no exception. However there is confidence that the hard decisions taken to reform the industry will eventually bear fruit and secure the future of this unique product.

Robert Smart have a wide range of Gant clothes in our York menswear shop.
These include:
All available at our Low Petergate shop in the heart of York
The Gant premium lifestyle brand combines American casualness with European elegance. The company's values are based on its authentic American East Coast heritage, dating back to the launch of the brand in 1949. Since then the brand has been further developed, taking influence from Europe, and is now a truly global brand. Gant offers full ranges of clothing for men, women, and children. In addition, Gant branded watches, footwear, eyewear, fragrances and home furnishings are designed and marketed by licensees.
Gant's history began when Bernard Gant started making shirts in New Haven, USA. He quickly turned his passion for quality and design into the business of making casual sportswear. His sons, Marty and Elliot, later joined the company and retained their father's dedication to garment craftsmanship and attention to detail. Still today, Bernard Gant is the source of inspiration behind Gant's core brand values – integrity, refinement, character, understanding and optimism.
In 1999, Sweden-based Gant AB (at the time named Pyramid Sportswear) acquired the Gant brand from Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation. Back in 1980, Pyramid Sportswear had been given the right to design a collection branded Gant for the Swedish market. Pyramid Sportswear was subsequently given the right to market Gant worldwide, excluding the U.S. market. When the Gant USA business was acquired in 1999, the new owners of the Gant brand were finally given the opportunity to turn Gant into a global brand. In 2006 Gant was quoted on the Stockholm Stock Exchange and in March of 2008, Gant was delisted and bought by Maus Frères – a private Swiss company.
Gant has a history of strong international growth and is today established in over 70 countries through more than 330 Gant stores and a large number of selected premium retailers. In 2002, Gant headed east and entered the Russian market. Launches followed in Japan and China in 2004 and 2005, and during 2006, Gant was also launched in India, South Korea, Canada, Thailand and Brazil. In 2007 Gant was introduced to the markets in Hong Kong, Malaysia and Israel.

Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
34 posts
• Page 1 of 2 • 1, 2
Another wheel upgrade advice thread...I know... another one... I would be most appreciative for y'all advice though. I was provided with funds for Christmas to purchase a nice new wheelset for weekend rides and events (some non-competetive 100km and 100mi rides and triathlons). I've had problems with wheels when commuting before due to my weight (95kg) and the amount of stuff I tend to carry, however these are to be stictly non-commuting wheels. That being said, I'm still conscious of weight being a factor. I've found a few wheelsets that I'm considering and would value any input:
Easton EA90 SL: Cell bikes have a few of these sets for $600 which seems like a steal. Pro's: They are 24/28 spoked and slightly aero. 2 year warranty. Con's: SP, DB, aero spokes will be hard and expensive to get. There is talk on forums of some of these wheels having been built with a dodgy set of sapim spokes; although these have all apparently been rectified by Easton under warranty. Shimano RS80 C24: PBK have them for $441. I've had a few people reccomend these as good fast wheels that hold up well even under heavy riders. Pro's: The lightest at 1500g (ish). Con's: SP, DB, aero spokes. 16/20 spokes scares me a little. Hope Pro3 on Mavic Open Pro: CRC have them for under $400. I've had Open Pro rims recommended and I have a Pommy mate who swears by Hope hubs. Pro's: 32/32 standard DB spokes. These 'feel' like they'd be the strongest. Con's: Warranty may be difficult as I don't think these are sold in Oz. These are the least sexy! Pro-Lite Bracciano: This seems to be the most commonly recommended wheelset on these forums so I figured I should just include it from the start. Currently $400 from Pro-Lite Oz. Pro's: Seem to be very well regarded. Standard spokes. Con's: Can't find much discussion of the weight capacity of these. I like the idea of the Easton's the best and I'm somewhat comforted by the 24/28 spoke count but they'd also be the most expensive mistake if they didn't work out. Are the Bracciano's really that good... really? Any advice would be welcomed.
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...Have you considered Fulcram 5's ? I am a similar weight and cannot fault the 5's.
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...I haven't, although the 3's would come into play at a comparison price point. How many K's you put on the 5's?
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
Had my EA90 SL's for about 3 years. I'm 85kgs and the wheels have been true and maintenance free for much of that time. Until, a few weeks ago I hit a small pothole that put both wheels out of true. Went to get them repaired and this is the result of trying to re-ture them(front wheel). Been told by my LBS that to repair requires cutting of spokes and replacing at a cost of $7 - $10 per spoke. So upto $240 just for spokes! The rear was fine but I doubt it'll last much longer. i will get a second opinion on the best repair and maybe rebuild with a different rim/spoke but the hub might be the problem. Great wheels, BUT expect a limited life and expensive replacement parts regardless of which factory wheels you buy. Had the same issue with Mavic and spoke replacements. Edit - Cheaper at Cycling Express. You could say a $200 a year investment in wheels over 3 years isn't such a bad thing. i'd buy another set but have a bigger budget this time for wheels.
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
Unfortunately the damage is done to that one. Did they lube your spokes before trying to true the wheel? Did you get a look at the spoke tool they were using? Our Website is: http://www.pro-liteoz.com Find us on Facebook by searching for "Pro-Lite Australia"
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
Pro-Lite Oz recommend the Bracciano for riders up to 100kg. The Bracciano is tested in excess of that weight however bigger riders reduce the life of the wheelset so we bought the recommendation back to 100kg to allow some safety margin. Given that you want them as a weekend set and won't be putting 60km on them everyday I'm perfectly happy to recommend the Bracciano to you.

Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
What in Freds name did they try to use on those nipples, multigrips? ...whatever the road rules, self-preservation is the absolute priority for a cyclist when mixing it with motorised traffic.
London Boy 29/12/2011
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...Alloy nipples and they haven't been touched since I purchased them. Seen probably 15,000kms, if not a bit more in all weathers. Would that type of fracture/damage not be expected with alloy nipples after 3 years solid use?
I don't hang around to watch everything my LBS does to my bike, I'd like to instill them with some trust! Otherwise I might as well do it all myself.
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
Either they are seized, or he used a rubbish spoke tool on them. Either way, you're not going to get them off now without cutting... Its a good habit to put a drop of oil down the spokes so it runs into the nipples from time to time, especially with alloy nipples which is what most higher end wheelsets use.

Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...sorry to hijack this thread, but as I'm a similar weight I thought it made sense.
Hey Deon/jacks, I'm looking to upgrade bikes at tax time this year. Bascially, I want the best frame I can afford around the $2-2.5k mark which usually comes with 105 and cheap wheels. I was looking at your Bracchianos and Gavias. I've gotten down to 98kgs now (from 115-120) and will hopefully be around 90kgs in 6 months more. I've been riding Deep V 32 spokes and that's all I know. They're strong as anything, but heavy. I'll keep my current bike & wheels for commuting, but want something lighter and faster for group rides. Realistically, are Brachianos or Gavias ok for someone 90-100kgs? Or should I go for the Merano? Cheers, Dion Litespeed Tuscany Ti, Trek Superfly AL 29er, Trek 8000 rigid MTB
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
I disagree with this, you can buy one of these http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t113/Zoom_Bean/spokescrew.jpg from a hardware store and assuming it fits in the spoke hole on the rim just unscrew the nipple and replace that. If you are in the sutherland area and want to borrow one feel free to pop me a pm.
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
What would the point be? No wheel builder is going to re-use that spoke and if a few of them have had the same treatment the wheel is up for a full rebuild. Our Website is: http://www.pro-liteoz.com Find us on Facebook by searching for "Pro-Lite Australia"
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
Bracciano or Merano would be fine, the Gavia we recommend for lighter riders. Our Website is: http://www.pro-liteoz.com Find us on Facebook by searching for "Pro-Lite Australia"
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
It would be great if I lived near or close to a well known wheel builder who I could take it to and ask, 'what do you think'? Unfortunately I don't. Given the hub is good and the rim is still okay i would rebuild if I didn't have to use Easton's Zillion dollar spokes. Access to knowledge is my problem (and I have none!). @Jacks, I notice the Pro-Lite wheels use 'special' spokes, PRO-LITE double butted stainless aero spoke or PRO-LITE 3.2 mm stainless steel aero spoke. Are these a Zillion dollars for new ones like Easton et al?
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
I can answer that for you as I've spoken to Deon today re: the Bracciano's. There is a spare's kit for the Bracc's which is $45 and includes 50% of all of the spokes for the wheelset plus nipples (eg. 6 NDS, 6 DS, 10 Front). After speaking to Deon I'm sold on the Bracc's, not least because I can get them here in time for QTS round 4 at Robina this weekend! I can't find a single bad word spoken about them anywhere which I originally thought was just because they were a small distro, niche product but it appears not and they've performed well in objective testing and reviews. Most importantly, IMHO there's nothing better than having the phone number of someone to talk to who knows the product and who is the final port of call for customer service related enquiries. Nothing worse than having to try and deal with a distributor through a reseller to get a faulty product returned and/or fixed. NB: I'm also getting a set of the Como's which I'm assured will solve my commuting wheel issues. All in all just under $600 (with the spare's kit for the Bracc's) for new wheels all round.
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
They use alloy nipples to save 30g of weight when they should be using brass nipples to build a more durable wheel and (one that is easier to re-true if needed). Good wheel builders (note, not "high end" wheelsets) would use brass nipples.
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...
Brass nipples give a greater margin for error. For that reason they maybe favoured by a home mechanic, heavy rider or dedicated training wheelset. A skilled wheel builder won't require that margin for error as he'll know how much tension he can run and he'll have pre-lubed everything before assembly. Brass nipples can seize up if not lubed, you can end up breaking the spoke instead of stripping the nipple head. The outcome is the same. I've never stripped an alloy nipple on a wheel, a combination of the right tools and some oil before any truing. Its not that difficult.

Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...If the weather is really cold, do your nipples get brittle?
What is it with cycling? 30+ kmh and lycra???!!!
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...I have done 11,000km on the 5's in just under two years. Yet to need the wheel trued or bust a spoke.
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...I've had my Bracciano's for a month now (and have put just over 750km's on them).
It is still early days but they are so much better than the CXP22's they replaced and still roll forever and are as true as the day I unboxed them. I also like the fact that we have a ProLite rep who is very active on this forum and is happy to backup his product and answer any questions. In the cycling world (amongst other worlds), that can be quite a rarity these days. I cannot quantify personally that they are the best wheels around (as I haven't the money or time to try each and every wheelset to find out for myself), and reviews can only tell you what the reviewer wants to say, and doesn't always relate to every cyclist....but I am still VERY happy with my purchase and if they were stolen tomorrow I would be on the phone to Deon soon after ordering another set. I'm sure there are people out there who bought some Bracc's and didn't like them but they are awfully quiet as I am yet to read anything bad about them (and I think I know why) Dave 2012 Felt F75 | 105 | ProLite Braccianos | GP4000S
Re: Another wheel upgrade advice thread...I don't have Braccs, I've got Gavia P44s bought sometime in 2010. I weigh about 87 and these wheels have never given me a moments trouble. Still rock solid and amazingly free spinning with minimal maintenance (Sorry Deon )
A big + Lots to the kudos for Deon. Nothing has been too much trouble in my dealings with him. ...whatever the road rules, self-preservation is the absolute priority for a cyclist when mixing it with motorised traffic.

The Rock is Mania bound
Royal Rumble 2013
Photo courtesy: WWE
By Chad Smart
@chadsmart & @my123cents on Twitter
The 2013 Royal Rumble is in
the books. Heads up, this blog is going to be full of anger, snark and
stereotypical Internet wrestling fan rage. If you�ve been reading my123cents
for the at least two weeks or listened to last week�s From the Rafter�s radio
show then you know everything we didn�t want to see happen at the Royal Rumble
happened. Before I get into the complaining let me get the positives out of the
way. <>>
For the most part there
wasn�t anything bad on the show from a pure wrestling standpoint. All the
matches were laid out well and the in-ring action was perfectly acceptable. If
I weren�t one to think about the outcomes and how it plays into a bigger
picture, I wouldn�t have any issues with the show. So at least there�s that.
Add in some genuine surprises into the Royal Rumble match (Chris Jericho,
Godfather) and I would definitely think the show was worth the $15 I spent on
food at Buffalo Wild Wings while watching the show. Unfortunately I look at the
bigger picture and that picture resembles that refurbished picture of Jesus the
old lady tried to touch up.
Last Man Standing
Del Rio retains
Photo courtesy: WWE
I don�t get why Big Show and
Alberto Del Rio had another Last Man Standing match instead of a different
gimmick, or straight up match. The match was perfectly fine as long as you
overlook the logical gap of every Big Show match in which you wonder why he
doesn�t punch his opponents in the face right from the beginning. While the
match was fine, I didn�t like the ending. Ricardo Rodriguez duct tapes Big
Show�s feet to the bottom rope preventing Show from getting back to his feet
before the 10 count is administered. Yes, Big Show didn�t get back to his feet,
however he was clearly trying to get up. To me the referee should have realized
there was no way for Big Show to stand while his feet were taped and thus
remove the tape before making a 10 count. Guessing we�ll get a rematch on RAW
or Smackdown and then Big Show will be one of the competitors in the
Elimination Chamber match at the next pay per view. <>>
I was surprised to see Team
Hell No defeat Team Rhodes Scholars. I don�t know where Kane and Daniel Bryan
go from here. The Primetime Players have fallen down to non-serious contenders.
The Usos and Primo/Epico haven�t been presented as potential contenders for the
past couple of months. Hunico and Camacho�s bicycle must have gotten a flat tire,
as they haven�t been seen in some time. Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara returned
during the Royal Rumble but if the rumors of the two of them squaring off at
Wrestlemania are true, then there�s really no reason for them to get a
tag-title shot. Maybe Hell No will renew their feud with the Shield. Or maybe
we�ll get more Dr. Shelby and wacky skits and hope fans don�t realize the tag
titles aren�t being defended. <>>
Y2J Returns
Royal Rumble 2013
Photo courtesy: WWE
The Royal Rumble match was
well laid out. As mentioned before, the return of Chris Jericho was a surprise
and actually played into a storyline from more than a month ago. I don�t know
if Y2J is back or if this was just a one-time event. I hope he�s not back just
through Wrestlemania as I don�t like part-time guys taking Wrestlemania slots. <>>
The return of Goldust was a
nice surprise and I would really like to see a Goldust vs. Cody Rhodes match at
Wrestlemania. Maybe throw in Dusty Rhodes as special guest referee. For the second year in a row, Kofi
Kingston wins the award for most creative way to avoid elimination. <>>
Cena wins
Royal Rumble 2013
Photo courtesy: WWE
As exciting as the Royal
Rumble match was, the ending killed not only the match but was the first step
in making me dislike the show as a whole. John Cena winning his second Rumble
foreshadowed a Rock victory and made me not interested in Wrestlemania 29. Cena
is the holder of the �Being John Cena� title, which allows him a title match
whenever he wants one. Instead of having Cena win, whoever is going to
challenge for the World title should have won the Rumble. Though I suspect that
Cena winning the guaranteed title shot at Wrestlemania is a way for WWE to
claim last year�s promotion of Rock/Cena as �once in a lifetime� wasn�t a lie.
�Cena just happened to win a title show and Rock is champion, it�s not like we
set up that way.� <>>
During the Punk Rock match,
I thought they might have Punk retain the title because a Rock victory seemed
too obvious. If Punk retained, Rock could still win the title at Elimination
Chamber and go on to face Cena at Wrestlemania. Because I had this thought,
when Punk pinned Rock, I wasn�t too shocked. However my spirits were deflated
and every bad thought I had came to a head once Vince McMahon came out to
address CM Punk. <>>
Punk wins...for a minute
Royal Rumble 2013
Photo courtesy: WWE
Due to the lights going out
during the match and Rock apparently being attacked, I think maybe he just
slipped, Vince claimed The Shield had helped CM Punk and pre-match stipulation
declared if this happened Punk would be stripped of the title. The Rock grabbed
a mic and said they weren�t going to end that way and demanded the match be
restarted. One People�s Elbow later, the Rock ended CM Punk�s 400-day title
reign. <>>
This ending was pure dreck
on many levels. First off, Vince
had no proof the Shield interfered. Who�s to say Rock didn�t arrange for the
lights to be turned off so he could get Punk stripped of the title? Rock
beating Punk with one of the weakest wrestling moves in the history of
wrestling was also frustrating. Here�s a guy who has been champion for over 400
days, has defeated some of the best wrestlers on the roster and he gets beat
after a movie star who�s wrestled two matches in ten years hits him with an
elbow drop. Could they have made Punk�s title reign look any more pointless? <>>
Now unless there�s some
major shake up at Elimination Chamber, The Rock will defend the WWE title at
Wrestlemania against John Cena. I have not heard one person who has said they
want to see this rematch. Had I taken a survey at Buffalo Wild Wings, I may
have gotten a handful of people who were excited for the match. In my opinion,
Rock/Cena was the laziest booking decision that could have been made. <>>
Seventy days until
Wrestlemania and I have very little interest in the show. WWE really needs to
build a strong undercard to make Wrestlemania 29 not be the weakest show on a
weekend full of shows. Right now, I don�t have high hopes. <>>

Excellent! Watch sizing!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
These look great and feel great! Build quality seems EXCELLENT! Ventilation is great and the sole is stiff.
Northwave uses great materials throughout, specifically the material at the heel, which does a great job of keeping your heel from slipping out of the shoe.
I REALLY like the micro adjustments on the ratcheting system!
One Caveat...order a size up. Especially if you have wider feet.
Do they work with Shimano PD-R540 SPD-SL Road Pedals?
Adam D
Yes, these shoes will work with any 3 hole style cleats.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
The shoes fit like my old Shamanos - good for a wider foot. Not light like an S Works shoe, but very stiff and comfy. They breath wonderfully! They have gotten wet several times and I have experienced no issues with the wood insole. I would buy Northwave again, hands down.

Would you be able to tell me if the toe...
Would you be able to tell me if the toe box on these is wider than the ones in the extreme and extreme tech series?
Kyle Br
The toe box in each of those will be the same or extremely close to the same, so fitment will be comparable. The difference between the two is the closure system and the construction materials.

Fantastic Shoe; Watch Size
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Thanks to previous reviewers for warning about the inaccurate sizing chart. If I had followed it, then I would have ordered shoes that were too short. My old shoes were Shimano size 47. They were the right length for me but too narrow in the toe box, causing me terrible hot spot problems on long rides. That's why I decided to try Northwave. I got these in size 47 and they are perfect: exact same length as the Shimanos but wider in the toe box. Goodbye hot spots! (I wear US size 12 1/2 - 13 shoes).
I love the ratcheting and ankle adjustment systems. The ratcheting is fine-grained, easy to adjust while riding and I am able to lock in exactly the foot position I want, which, combined with the stiff sole, gives me excellent power transfer: everything my legs can do gets to the pedals! Yet these are very comfortable (for me at least) and I can loosen the velcro straps for room to wiggle my foot around inside, to ease discomfort on long rides. That's a big plus for me because I am mainly a distance / endurance rider.
I can't speak to durability as I only have 120 miles on these. They seem very well made.
Measure and please specify the...
Measure and please specify the length insoles size 39.5 and 40?
Great shoe, Use EU sizing!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I just picked up a pair of these and they fit like a dream! Be sure to use your EU size and not US as their chart is wrong. I replaced last years Shimano R087's and I'm so glad I pulled the trigger. I haven't done any long rides yet due to weather, only rollers, but even that was an eye opening experience compared to my previous shoes.
The venting is far more than I had expected, the upper mesh (whole shoe) is nearly see through. The build quality is top notch and I can't wait to get out on my bike this season and rack up the miles with these.
I got these on a great deal at $104 w/ shipping so if you're looking at getting a new shoe these are a no brainer right now. DO IT!! Just be sure you know your EU size and don't use their conversion chart.

nice shoes

very stiff and comfortable.
they have a front vent. It was a great update from my last mavic shoes.

Planning to get one... Can u measure in inches the insole of size 44? I have a sparta sbs pair in 43.5, the fit is perfect. Can you compre them if the size of the sole inside is the same? Thanks
A Tight Fit!
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
I am a big fan of Northwave shoes. They fit my feet just right. I have bought quite a few pair, always size 42 (everything from sandals to MTB shoes, touring shoes, and road shoes). Reading the other reviews, I was a bit concerned about the fit of these Evolution shoes, so I inquired before ordering. I was advised to order the same size I usually wear in Northwave. The shoes did not fit and I had to return them. I needed to go up to 42.5, but none available in black. Crud! They are nice shoes! Order up 1/2 size!
Fit is not like other NW shoes
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
- Fit: Runs small
I have the Aerlite model in a 45. good shoe but wanted a bit more room, so I ordered a 45.5 of the Evolution. Well it fits SMALLER than the 45 Aerlite. WTH? Personally I can't understand how a shoe maker can be that inconsistent. I was really bummed. There was no 46 available in the white at the time :-(
And of course Northwave's size converter is crazy inaccurate. Says that I'm like a 12-12.5 for wearing a 45. Wrong. I'm 10.5, maybe 11 max.
Good shoes,but terrible size
- Fit: Runs small
They are very nice but the US size is not correct,so I bought a small shoes.
Ps.I think the EU size should be right.
EU size is wrong too, I've had 2 pair of 44.5 s-works and this shoe the 44.5 is way too tight.
Great Shoe
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Great snug fit and is remarkably comfortable with how stiff the shoe is. Maybe a little heavier than other shoes with this price point.
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I didn't know this level of comfort existed in a cycling shoe and I now look at my Shimano's in disgust. This shoe is extremely stiff, well ventilated and the heel cup and SBS strap keep you locked in solid. There is a little more room in the toe box compared to the Shimano shoes I've owned but nothing obnoxious. I wear a US10 and ordered a 44.5 and they fit like a glove.
Beware: The size conversion is wrong
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
I wear a US size 10 so I ordered according to the conversion size chart a EU size 42.5. When I tried the shoe on it was way too small. I called and then ordered a EU 43 and 43.5 just to be sure. Even the 43.5 was too small so I talked to Kyle at Competitive who was very helpful and he said that he wore the same size shoe and that I would need a size 44.5. Wow! According to the size table that would be a US size 11 1/2. So before you order this shoe or the Northwave brand make sure you talk to someone who has your same size foot so that you can verify it will be a perfect fit. This was a very annoying process and literally took a few weeks to sort through so don't be mislead and do your due diligence up front! I can't comment on the shoe but will do so once I have the right size and can get out on the road to put them to the test.

I hope P/B don't go to SC unless Fabian is fully recovered. No reason to do three GPs if he's sick; better to allow himself time to get better so that they can come back strong for the rest of the season.
I'm glad to see other people who don't think that D/W are on the fast track to being the best ever. D/W are fast. So they do difficult things fast. They also do so with little elegance and don't have a great sense for the music (or for relating to each other), not that the judges ever notice. I can't get behind that sort of skating, even if it is difficult; I've given it a shot more than once, but whatever special something people see in them, I don't.
Also, I'm bored with Meryl's Disney princess dresses. I think it contributes to that juniorish feel you get from them - she needs a more mature look.
I thought so in 2008-9 - there were exciting teams, veterans and up and comers, and lots of variety in the programs. Also, the Finnstep! Now I find dance dull beyond words and horribly predictable. I'm pretty close to returning to my pre-2008 dance mode of watching my favorite team and then finding something else to do.
I can appreciate that what Meryl & Charlie do is fast and difficult, but their skating leaves me cold!
I find it destracting that Meryl doesn't bend her knees much, it give the impression that Charlie is bobbing up and down, whilst she is staying in the same position!
I feel this is an athlete's program rather than a dance program.
Where is the connection, the dancing, the extended limbs, the elegance, the character, the beautiful dresses?
There should be way more to dance than well executed tricks!
Bring back dance!!!
Sadly, there is a reason. P&B signed up to do 3 GP's. There is a monetary penalty if they don't do all three. The ISU did not allow any mercy for those who are ill. P&B chose to do 3 instead of 2 GP's because they felt they needed the appearance fees involved; so it is no surprise that they are trying to do all 3 rather than pay a penalty fine. Thank goodness, Fabian will have a chance to heal before TEB.
I don't think that allowing 3 GP's was a good idea at all, particularly when they are limiting each event to only 8 teams. It cuts the number of teams that can participate in the GP.
herios, I don't know. And I can't get the ISU site up today for some reason. I suspect you are correct, and there was a time limit to back out. Do you recall whether Bobrova & Soloviev are doing 2 or 3 events? I know D&W, V&M and the Shibs are not. Only the top 6 teams had the option.
Surely if they withdraw for medical reasons they won't incur a fine? Assuming it's cleared by an acceptable medical authority, I can't imagine the ISU telling skaters to skate if they are unhealthy. Lynn Rutherford tweeted that she'd never seen a skater look so sick at a press conference. I don't even know how they got through the FD.
Sorry. That's how it is. That's what Fabian said in the interview.
I'm surprised, because ISU documents specifically state that skaters are allowed to withdraw for medical reasons if they have proper documentation. I do know that he's had trouble with getting treatment because the medication he needs would show up on a doping test.
ETA: The relevant section on skaters doing three events is on page 7 here. I can't figure out what exactly it means, because I can't find the full text of rule 140 (5).

Weaver/Poje are doing two GP after all?
Bobrova/Soloviev are doing 2,as far as I remember.One must be Cup of Russia...
I've always thought that doing 3 events wasn't going to be that easy.Especially doing back to back events as P/B are scheduled to do.
Bourzat did say that he checked with doping and the meds he is currently taking are okay. Unfortunately he won't have much time to recover having to go to Canada in a few days. There they will meet Virtue & Moir and unlikely to win that event. In Paris they meet Virtue & Moir again instead of say the Shibutani's where they could have a better chance at winning.
Rule 7
Rule 140 (5)Further to point 2.1. a) the skaters/teams who have chosen to skate 3 events, will receive their prize money
in the usual way, paid by each organizer according to their placements. Should a seeded skater/couple not
complete the third event for any reason, the equivalent of 20% of the total prize money, that the
skater/couple has received in the first two events, must be reimbursed to the ISU or will be deducted from
the next possible contribution of the ISU to the Member of the skater/couple concerned. If the reason for
withdrawal from the third event is medical, then for this reason and this alone Rule 140, paragraph 5 shall
5. a) In the case a Skater is withdrawn for injury or illness a Medical
Certificate is required to be submitted to the ISU as provided by ISU
Regulations, Communications or Announcements;
b) The Certificate must be issued on the stationary of a Medical Doctor or
on an ISU withdrawal notification form in case of in-competition
withdrawal and duly signed by the Skater and the Medical Doctor.
If the certificate is not in English a translation signed by the President
or General Secretary of the Member of respective Skater must be
c) In addition, upon request of the Chair of the Sports Directorate, the
Certificate must be received by the ISU within 72 hours after the notice
of withdrawal, and the Member or the Skater must include or attach the
following additional information:
i) the history which clearly indicates the date of injury or date of
onset of illness, the type of injury or illness and severity of
injury or illness as well as the physical findings on
ii) copies of laboratory or radiological reports that were
conducted in the investigation of the injury/illness;
iii) the recommended treatment by the physician including
medications, therapy, advice on training frequency and
intensity, date for follow-up examination (a copy of this
assessment should then be forwarded to the ISU), expected
date of return to full activity, planned further investigations
and/or criteria for return to full activity.
Yeah, I think P/B need to play or they'll pay. The rule Buttercup linked to states "for ANY reason" (emphasis mine).
So, what's the financial hit they'll take?
Three Silvers + bonus = $49,000
Two silvers + bronze + bonus = $45,000
Two silvers - 10% penalty = $23,400
Weaver/Poje still listed for three, btw.
Furthermore, that was a reason cited by Tessa & Scott in an interview for why they did not wish to do 3 GP's: they didn't want to pay the penalty if there were medical problems.

text: I hate to have to trash a local company but after my experience with Hypeflex I have no choice. I had read good reviews on the company and liked that they were from NJ so i decided to buy some of their stuff (over the past year i have a 3/2 fullsuit, polypro rash guard, and some booties and gloves). At the end of the season two years ago I bought a new 2011 AMP 5/4/3 wetsuit and was initially happy with the product. I wore it once or twice and then the water warmed up and I put it away for the season. However, after about 5 sessions of use this past winter I went to put the suit on and noticed the zipper had come off and three teeth were broken. I was able to fight it and get the zipper back on to get me through the session. When I got home I emailed the company to tell them what happened and ask if I could ship it back to have the zipper repaired. After ignoring my initial email, I followed up and finally got a response telling me they did not have zippers in stock and that I should try to get someone else to fix it. Needless to say I couldn't find anyone that had a zipper that would work or a machine that would go through the suit. I called Hyperflex back and they again told me I was **** out of luck and there was nothing they would do. So basically I bought a brand new suit that is now totally useless. And the companies response was too bad. My 3/2 is now beginning to fall apart as well (taped seams coming undone, draw strings starting to tear). Bottom line is you get what you pay for. This company sells low priced products because they use low quality materials. I had a friend ship his excel suit back for a similar issue and they replaced it with a new suit (it took forever to get it back tho) and they are a much bigger company that probably doesn't need his business as bad. Do yourself a favor and pay the extra bucks for a different brand suit. I saved 100 bucks on the initial purchase but now I have to buy another suit so it is going to cost me more than double. They make **** products and worst of all DO NOT stand behind them. DO NOT BUY FROM THEM
