STATO I saw you (well your bike really) at Darlo. was going to race but full of cold(sniff/coff) so wimped out, and pit-bitched for my mate. Thought it was abit unusual to see a surly at a cx race

Well it is a CX bike so not that unusual ๐Ÿ™„ dont think youll see many going as slow as mine did tho, i had a bad knee you see (insert other excuses here) ๐Ÿ˜†

Gary_M - looking forward to hearing how it goes tomorrow ๐Ÿ˜› During construction the site speed limit was 15mph and it took us nearly an hour to drive end to end - bloody hard to keep to but they actually set up speed cameras, which tbh was a very good idea to keep the accidents down !

mtbmatt - it's 42-19 on there at the moment which is a bit big but it's what I had. 38-18 is my more normal cross gear.

Cheers for that Sam. I was hoping to use 44/18, but I guess that will be too big.
Looks like I'll need new cranks, unless anyone does a smaller SS chainring for 135PCD.

ive got 42:16 on at the mo because its decent for commuting but i think 39:18 is the starting point for most folk on ss cross like 32:16 on little wheeled ss mtbs and 32:18 on proper wheeled mtbs
