right. thanks chaps. currently running 34t on the front and kinda like to keep this on as it’s a relatively new ring. was contemplating putting on an old road cassette on (11-26) but would seem a bit harsh now.. will try with 11-32 for now and take it from there. not really keen on spinning low gears, but, might not have much choice 🙄

got room for a little one pook? reckon i can squeeze a pass out for this 😆

bump again 🙄

bump 😀

i’m 47 with a resting rate of 44, i’d worry. and i’m 16 1/2 stone too 🙄

anyone? can get order in tomorrow. would be big help 😀

tis hope rotors i want but get loads of profiling done through work and can get very cheap 😉

OH MY GOD!!!!!

but……….?

big thanks supersaiyan, never thought of looking there 😳

bloodyshins, i’m in mansfield mate

bump 😀

thanks ton, but lusso full length and endura same or baggies.
looking bit more specific

I like mud in my face all part of the fun surely? they look crap too!

on my wavelength then! 😆

surely i’m missing the point of mountain biking then. at one with nature etc…
mind to be fair, most of my rides are done from home so no muddy car to worry about 😳

dont run any, they’re just something else to clog up with mud. all that extra weight an’ all

although you can hook up with sherwood pines mtb club for guided rides. think they used to do a fri night ride??? iirc?

they still do a regular ride wed and fri, go out of park too. good fun as well.
check out the club website–http://www.sherwoodpinescyclingclub.co.uk/index.php

have to say as a local i don’t normally ride the kitchener as i’m not a big fan, but, came home with a smile on my face today after a couple of laps. there have been improvements since i last rode it, and i was pleasantly surprised! 😳

yeah, me too.
rider nos 65 & 66 please 😀

@millcar “I was an asthmatic looking 75”

yeah but thats how you always ride! 😆 😆
and didn’t think you were that old

surely we’re missing the obvious here,
MAWIL. middle aged women…..

i’ve had mine out for about half a dozen rides and seem to think i’ve got it spot on now. just play about with pressures and settings, it will come. bought mine with enduro 6 in mind too!

duct tape every time. always got some wrapped around my pump for that very purpose
in fact, used for all sorts of trailside repairs 😆

my new toy. 😀
only been on order since september 😥

the top of the tyre is visible, shocks are the right ones,sourced of the chassis no.
load sensors are in brake lines so dont think they’re the problem. cant say as there is a definite camber on the wheels.
only way i can describe how it sits is, it’s like i’ve got a fully loaded boot full of bricks and suspension is on its limit.

doesn’t sound promising then. have to say, all this is leading me to think that maybe it is a snapped torsion bar, or even worse, BOTH! the car does sit flat and level all round, just unusually low at the back

no brakes aren’t binding. dampers seem to work fine. ifit is torsion bars, how easy are they to fix, am i looking garage job?

not springs, if it were i’d have it sorted by now. think they’re torsion bar. anyone got any ideas?

2nd the giro, now on my second. really good value lid

4-23-32

you think that's odd!
apparently mine peaked at 251 on a ride not long back
absolutely no idea why, but did freak me out

eeerrrrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

lol @ penrod

rode x2 at cannock and was really impressed.
think i'm looking for something racier as i'm fetting into this racing lark, never been a big fan of airtime anyway

rock an roll grease on order, will sort when it arrives.
thanks for your help. will update soon.

no worries 😀

thisisnotaspoon-
they were cleaned thoroughly. no play in the bushings, in fact they're very good. any idea where i can get this grease.

i can usually get up there for about 5.30
as thefallguy says, there's loads up there if you stray off the beaten track. i can spend a good 3-4 hrs up there and not touch the same trail twice. maybe even longer some days 😀

what time you looking at? can prob get a few out

pah! you're all women. 34/15, off road

MTFU 😆

yeah, monthly for me too.
strange though, usually follows payday 😆
