The stated economy for this car from various sources is 51mpg (up to 58mpg).<br /> I have seen 'real world' figures mentioned on one site of 45mpg combined, but this was a slightly different model.</p> <p>The car has only covered 23k, drives extremely smoothly and pulls well. From what I can tell there are no mechanical or fuelling problems or symptoms.</p> <p>Should we be getting more or is this just a very disappointing turbo diesel with inflated mpg advertising?<br /> What should I check for?</p> <p>It doesnt sound much, but If it were acheiving 50mpg id be very happy with the car as a whole. As it stands, 40mpg is niggling away and persuading me to drop a load of cash and trade for something else. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/lightweight-long-travel-hardtails-wots-yours#post-3455377 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 19:20:08 +0000 swompy 3455377@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>No doubt this topic gets covered regularly, but what does your steed weigh ?

He has got £800 to play with, but theres a chance he could stretch up to around £1000. That's absolute max though! Bike wise, main priority is that its all in running order and doesn't need any work doing to it. If that is the case it would have to be reflected in the price. He's 6ft 2", so ideally after a large frame, but would consider a medium at the right price. That's about it really, we're based in bridgend, s.wales and can travel abit to view bikes/collect etc. Very serious about buying something, so no time wasters please!</p> <p>Cheers, borgia. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/what-cx-frame-for-singlespeed#post-3455851 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 21:28:03 +0000 rooney 3455851@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Pricing up cheap options for a singlespeed cyclocross bike.

He started it about 8 months ago and is slowly building it up. I've not found a decent lbs near me in London and have come to rely on crc, wiggle, rose and Merlin, but this new shop could be different....my neighbour loves bikes and is a nice guy.<br /> I need a new, decent lock. Wiggle have long shackle Kryptonite evolution u-locks at 50% off, a price you know he can't match. What do you do?<br /> And just to add spice. You know if you go online that you will be out when the courier tries to deliver and there is a 70% chance (based on history) that the package (a box marked 'Wiggle') will get left with said nice neighbours.<br /> What do you do? </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/mac-v-pc-for-photo-editing#post-3455915 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 21:46:21 +0000 dropoff 3455915@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Any objective views welcomed especially from anyone who has gone from pc to mac for their photo editing.
