Most Sundays GF, Immy(In trailer)and myself ride to the Chase and back (15 miles)using the back roads scenic route.When we get there Sascha is to tired to even do a lap of the Follow the dog as she tows the trailer with Immys bike strapped to it so to overcome her tiredness I have stripped her Full Suss and sorted her out with a hardtail now surely she cannot moan she has no energy left.
Bike is a surprise when she gets back home tonight 3 nights of swearing in a darkened shed so she could not see it
Back brake needs rerouting and needs bar plugs

Chopped off the brake bosses scary as job!
Before she gets to the Chase. 🙂

wow - good job! might not be enough of a difference to overcome the problem but can't fault the effort. 🙂
nice.
Wheels are a sort term measure untill I sort out an XT freewheel for some black 717 Mavic rims
lucky lady!
Wow, I would be furious if my gf stripped my bike and re-built it without asking, guess you know your other half well enough not to expect problems.. 😯
The cheaper option would have been for someone else to tow the trailer, of course......
😉
i'd have offered to tow the trailer
So you have downgraded her bike without her knowledge.
How does this address the problem?
Why don't you tow the trailer?
You lazy bugger, why don't you tow it one way, (or both)
Nice bike btw 🙂

He's a postie. The package might not get there 😉
lol at miketually
If this is really the reason you have done this it is the most flawed piece of reasoning I have seen for quite a while...

And therefore quite brilliant: I salute you!
I look forward to a fresh divorce thread appearing on the chat forum some time soon....why don't you tow it yourself?
Its rubbish unless you put Pike stickers on those Paces.
Towing is womens work unless its offroad and I,m quite happy to take over.
The smiles says it all!
Wheel fixed

Early night tonight methinks 😉
i'd sort out that saddle angle or you wont be getting many more 'early nites'
why is she doing the towing, you lazy geyt 😉
early night? do you want another trailer to pull?? 😉
Surely that saddle is set way too high, I think postie's got himself a new play bike 😉
That's a nice looking bike - never seen that frame in a small before - very nice! Seatpost looks about right to me, but hey what do I know. Eitherway - she does look very chuffed! (Seriously though, why don't you pull the trailer?!)

And compromise the chance to do knarly drops of kerbs, think it though man.
I'd make her tow it.

I pick a differant route offroad and meet the @ various points and Sascha WANTS TO! pull the trailer,anyway she screams @ me when I pull the trailer

Rich
😆 that first shot is class!!
Ace last pics Rich.
...but what is going on with that stem on Sascha's new bike?
Tis a tad long might swop it with her other one on her Cotic ss.
She seemed happy enough when she went for a quick spin,need to train her up on using the allen keys so she can make some adjustments 🙂
Ah, I see!... Your wife cares for the life of her child... makes sense.
That berm shot is wicked though! I feel inspired - when we have kids I think we'll be getting one of those little trailers - my hubby will definitely be doing the towing though! (although we may have to duck tape the kid in!)
Good work Rich - you're definately in tonight.(With your Mrs,not me BTW :oops:)
Can I have her old frame please? I reckon ittud fit me perfect.
Nice one, you're not alone. My Mrs insists on pulling the trailer with our 3 and 1 yo in it! Mad I tell ya! The amount of comments you get about being a lazy bugger, she calls it training!!
Good stuff. I get yelled at when I "improve" my GF's bike.
