Looking forward to seeing you both in Zwift.... I’ve just done an hour this morning, cycling around a futuristic Central Park in NYC...

I have Zwift all set up and ready to go, even had a 2 mile ride when setting mine up. Only problem was the gears skipping, and then thought about the derailleur issue.
Also have a big tv screen set up as well.

As soon as I'm good to go will give you a shout. (hopefully tomorrow).

My Flux S has just turned up a day earlier. So will nip down and pic it up this afternoon.
Do me a favour when you get it mate. Can you measure from centre of Flux S hub down to top of leg to see what clearance measurement is please?

The Flux was 200mm. Thanks

Well. I picked up the ‘S’ put it together and went to put the spacer in as I have disc brakes and saw that the bolt to undo to put the spacer in was completely rounded!
So couldn’t put the spacer in so cant put the bike on. Rang Halfords up. New ‘S’ ordered and 10% off (£55) coming back to me as well.

This is becoming a bit of a ball ache!

I put the bike in position before I remembered that I needed to put the spacer on.

There looked like plenty of room. Will measure and take a pic when I get the new one.
Probably Friday.

Lol I've not been around for a few days and came back to the floods of messages on this thread !!! I remember the pain in the Backside with looking for the right one, setup etc.
Hang in there guys, when its done its done and you wont regret it.

Any updates?

Peeing down with rain outside, slightly hung over, so decided to do an hour’s virtual spin around London and once up Box Hill....

Nice work. Looks good and looking forward to it.

Halfords have order a Flux S for me. Just waiting for Customer Services to confirm they can match the price I've paid already for the Flux. Looks like that will be the solution as I'm happy with the bike.

Should be in on Weds I'm told. Just order some new garage workshop tool cabs from Halfords as well so will collect them at the same time.
