I have those on my commuter bike, and I like them. I inflate them to about 40 or 50 psi.
This weekend's mail brought a cap, some gloves, and a phone mount. The gloves are labeled XL, but they're hard to put on.

sometimes the smallest parts are the ones that bring a project to a stopping point.

Haha, now I realize what I just said (or implied). But the only things that are extra large are my hands, feet, and head. Promise.

Decent used set of Assaults, new Corsa G+ skins, 11-30 cassette and changed the rings out to a Spidering Mid from the Standard it came with. Dialed in as much as it can be for Rosarito-Ensenada next weekend. On top of the wife deciding she wanted a road bike for her birthday, it has not been a cheap month haha.

The Jerseys are Asian sizes - upsize two sizes for US
Nice work!
The kid's large looked to be a cm or two shorter in the back than my favorite size small women's jerseys, but it shouldn't be a big deal with bibs. I've learned that the boys' L (and sometimes XL) sizes are often close to an American XS or Euro S in women's stuff.

A new bike. Found an 80's Peugeot at a flea market not too long ago. Paid only €20 for it. It was in very good condition, only needs new tyres.

It is actually cycling related because I bought it for my next cycling vacation.

Expansion (compression) plug.
The ENVE expansion plug is rather short and does extend far enough down into the steerer to support the entire stem. The Specialized expansion plug is widely accepted as one of the best. It is heavy but long and will support the entire steerer.
I just built a custom fixed gear bike. It has the ENVE part in it now but I will replace it once the Specialized part arrives if only for piece of mind.
