    I’d suggest to Network it by connecting the printer to your router. Then its always connected and no need to connect to your laptop other than the existing wireless.

    Other users can share it too if thats useful.

    Printer make and model would be useful to allow us to check compatibility.

    EGR replaced, Codes cleared. Terraclean done.

    Car drives OK now. Let see how it behaves in the coming weeks and is able to do a regen when required.

    DPF houses are pristine. But EGR has failed. The garage can test / trigger it but it remains inactive.

    New one due in tomorrow. Update then. Thanks All

    I went with Rekon 29×2.8 to replace my 3.0 Chronicles. Very pleased.

    And no stock. Suspect hes folded and selling off anything not used to pay off debt.

    And that Focus is ropey inside. Look at the seats. 48k miles, More like 148k

    Had the same issue with 4x Cyclingcore disc brake alignment tool.

    Ended up £52 out of pocket. PayPal sided with the seller because the return address in my opinion did not exist and I would then lose that postage.

    I complained that the website only listed uk addresses and warehouses, but no,the return had to be China, the seller then gave me an option of a 2nd fake ‘local’ morroccan address.

    I use a pendle bike rack and strap the upright poles onto the crank arms. Frame rub clearly not an issue.

    Cranks get rubbed and clattered anyway so any additional tiny marks a non issue.

    I swapped from 29×3.0 Chronicle to 29×2.8 Rekon with a combination of 3C Compound Front and Dual on the rear.

    Lighther and faster. Chronicle was at 15PSI and Rekon is at 17PSI.

    Still have reasonably worn Chronicles, unlikely to go back.

    DHF/DHR too heavy. 29×3 Rekon would be perfect.

    I use a 3.5M long tandem gear inner wire.
    1. Pull old inner out and thread tandem gear inner in.
    2. Pull off old outer cable, hanging onto to gear wire..
    3. there is enough lenght of gear wire that you can thread the enitre new outer over the gear wire before it even goes into the frame. Once the gear wire come out the far end, you clamp the gear wire to the outer and pull the whole lot through.

    Wife has 2016 1.2 TSi DSG 35k miles . No mecahnical faults with engine or DSG.

    I don’t like the way DSG gearboxes ‘pull away’ from rest. But all the ones I’ve driven are the same.

    I’m close to buying but can’t get my head around the sizing. I’m 5ft11 and ride a 19.5 trek stache 9.8 with a 35mm stem. I can’t go longer.

    Yeti website shows me on the cusp of M and L.

    OP what sizing decisions did you make pls?

    I don’t think the mechanism is actually a BOA (who have great support).

    Looking a buying a pair myself but would be winter / muddy use so wondering how they would hold up in those condition.

    Spending over £100 for a genuine is tough for shoes that will get ‘trashed’ a 3 winters.

    Get a decent quality dual compound exo sidewall Ardent. Not the dirt cheap oem tyre as fitted.

    The file format is likely to be transport stream format. This is what is on the airwaves and recorders simply record the transport stream which I think is an h.264 format.

    When played back the PVR will decode this into HDMI or analog video.

    VLC among others will play TS.

    Question is is the actual disk readable by windows. It’s probably a Linux partition.

    My only concern would be banjo bolt. But this implies you are OK.

    I’ve gone for 8120 brakes and they do have a different bolt.

    Ordered a pair from

    Will update about an included banjo bolt.

    Arrived today, retailed boxed with finned pads, bleed block and the banjo bolt all included.

    Ah thats a releif was about to give up if I had to buy new hoses.

    Will confirm with the vendor before I buy.

    My first 29er was a Stache, I was and still am amazed at the way it climbs, descends and corners.

    I remain convinced of 51mm offset forks on 29ERS

    Yup, had already ordered one from Sunset today with the extra 10% before writing this. Spoke to them and there are some unpainted Fives left. Just need to order to secure. But I think its going through. New swingarms are much nicer though !

    The post was really to point our the hole in the lineup when the Fives all gone.

    If Chancel is mentioned on the deeds then pay the insurance.

    If there is no Chancel on the deeds, then the Church can no longer dig out dusty old docs stating its due.

    The rules changed a few years ago forcing the church to prove your liability or drop it forever.

    I ride motorbikes too. Front brake on the right is good.

    Interesting that for motorcycles as far as I’m aware are always front brake on the right. Even EU and USA. Hence moto style for UK bike brakes.

    I agree with TiRed.
    Pay for no liability, thus no credit card bond.
    Did this with Hertz this year. Picked car up, the condition report was already crossed out as not required.
    Very clean low mileage Polo. Returned car, no additional checks.

    Pay the money and be totally stress free.

    Thanks all for your thoughts, proper look round today and need to make a decision.

    Southampton Uni have declared that on-campus attendance is required. We are about an hour away by car so commuting is an option. Personal reason exclude halls / shared accommodation at the moment.

    Pendle… Simple and effective. Buy a 4 bike one and only install 3 carriers. Really spacious

    Don’t repeat don’t try and repair that disk without recovering photos etc in either a caddy or 2nd sata port of a desktop PC. Caddies £7.99 from Amazon.

    A repair may go well, it may not. It’s already unhappy don’t make it worse.

    Edit
    As above a Linux boot disk is a good idea.

    Have removed all air pressure and the stanchions will sink right down into the legs

    Have you changed to a debonair airshaft of the same travel ? Or was it purely a service.

    the bike frame etc are pushing it down

    Really, can couple of kilos tops of handlebars and levers plus a bit of frame can compress a fork.

    My 74kg must really squash the fork to its limits

    andyg1966
    Full Member

    are people seriously spending cash just so their fork sits a bit higher when stationary

    I’m upgrading from an original air shaft to debonair. Given I’m a 120mm 29er, I don’t particularly want to sit low in the travel if there is a better solution
