How old does that make you feel!
Off out solo tonight on the lads after deciding to sort out both my MTBs without ordering the parts in time, thus rendering both my bikes useless.
Having kids was worthwhile in the end it seems.

The bike was bloody brilliant ๐Ÿ˜ฏ
Couldn't believe how well it rode, seeing as it's just a collection of bits. If a bike could feel torquey, this is how this feels. It climbed up wet rooty trails with ease, but best of all was the way it just sailed through quagmire. It's just a Dirty Jo Semi Creme with some good parts and some cheap no name parts. The tyres were good as well, just basic Vapours.
Tonights solo ride.

Edit; I'm convinced old square taper BBs run smoother than HT11s?

Not smoother, just feels that way with all the flex going on.

But yes I've had a quick spin on my lads 18" WTP BMX just to make sure it all works ok ๐Ÿ˜‰
