    Afternoon, as the title I’ve just snapped the seat mast off my early Turner RFX. Does anybody have a suitable front end collecting dust in the shed?

    Cheers, a needs to be a bit more xc though as I’ll be doing the Mega on it. The RFX was ideal, it was very old but low mileage (only just changed the original bushes).

    I can’t help with your frame, but a couple of years ago I had a similar emergency when my shock packed up a week before the Alps and I could not get it serviced for love nor money.

    Ended up buying a new bike and selling the old one in the end.

    Look on the bright side, at least it didn’t wait until the first ride of the trip.

    I have a white medium 6 Pack collecting dust. It’s stored in the West Moseley area.

    Theres not much climbing on the Mega, the demo will be fine….you just wont be competing for a top place.

    Done the mega on a dh bike and I’d rather do it on my hardtail than do that again. It needs to pedal well as my asthma really hinders me at altitude.
    I may just treat my credit card to a new bike if it comes to it, just wish it hadn’t all gone 27.5.

    I’ve got a spare medium 05 sixpack in iron glimmer grey sitting in the loft – no shock (190×50) that I would part with. I’m in Orpington, Kent.

    Whereabouts are you? If you’re edinburghish and a small/medium you’d be welcome to borrow my hemlock frame, it’s sat spare just now. if you break it you’ve bought it but it’s worth **** all anyway…

    Very decent of you Northwind, but I’m down south I’m afraid and hate borrowing stuff, I’d not forgive myself if I damaged it, regardless of value. Iain, I’ve mailed you.
