    As above. The smaller the offset the bigger the trail figure as th3 wheel moves further “under” the bike

    I’ve got that tool you linked to on eBay and it works a treat. That is if the outer race doesn’t get left behind.


    @bigyan
    I have the SC removal tool as well. Have you ever managed to reverse the tool when the outer race stays in? In my experience that just doesn’t work


    @mrl
    you’ll still need a press to put the new bearings in

    Flying down a bridleway on the NY moors. Next thing I know is I’m sliding along the floor on my right side. Smashed collarbone, 5 broken ribs, 2 broken bones in my spine and a punctured lung. Helicoptered out of there by the YAA. 2 weeks before going to Morzine for a week with the lads and had to cancel the holiday with the wife and kids as well

    Edit: Read that as worst crash you EVER had

    Yeah my 820 has failed to upload my last 2 rides over the air. I’ve had to turn off bluetooth on phone and Garnin and then re-pair them to sort it. Always seems to be the case on every other update

    Not boost but a Bird Aeris?

    Well impressed with my Session 5. Video quality is miles better than the Silver 3+ it replaced. Battery life is ok and lasts long enough for my needs. Looks like AO.com might be the best price at the minute for the Session 5

    Just come back from Innerleithen today and we stayed here. Sleeps 4 but the owner said they were happy to accommodate a couple more if needed.

    I’d say that 203 mount  from CRC is to fit an older fork that takes a 160mm rotor without a mount. I think you’ll want the front 183mm from CRC

    I’d go with the E4s. Not sure why you’re worried about set up woes when your lbs is doing it

    I’m a size 10 and wear size 10 Five Tens and Adidas Terex. I have slim feet if that makes any difference

    Can’t really think of any cons with mine. Best hardtail I’ve owned, really comfy to ride. My XL comes in about 29lbs. In fact the only con is it’s made my Hightower feel a bit short in reach now.

    Thanks. Yeah they’re boost. Didn’t realise the thread was different to non boost and it just looked like it was going nowhere 😳 #blondemoment

    Saturday is their changeover day. So you’re either doing it the last or first day of your holiday

    I entered yesterday but still not showing on the list. Couple of people I know entered a few hours after me and they are on the list. Anyone know of a contact email for the organisers?

    @antares how is it by the way?

    Absolutely love it. Miles better than the 650b version it replaced and it’s the comfiest hardtail I’ve ever ridden

    You could use your singletrack discount at Ubyk and get 10% off a frame for starters. I don’t think the builds are very good value. I bought a frame and with a mixture of 2nd hand parts and grabbing some new bargains I built this for about £1800

    Garmin 820 user here. I agree with some of the comments on the other thread. The touchscreen can be frustrating to use at times, especially in the rain. But for sticking gpx files in it and following routes on and off road I think it works great and to be honest once the routes in and I hit go I don’t really need to touch the screen again.

    Yeah never heard of anything to mount a Reverb remote to hope levers. You can mount the shifter though but you need to change it to iSpec. The cover for your shifter is an eye watering £54.99 at sjs cycles https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/gear-spares/shimano-xtr-ispec-ii-slm9000i-cover-unit-right-y01u98050/

    Stuck some Shimano M8000s on the build for my daughter with a 30t ring

    let us know if that does work.

    It’s basically the same as the exposure light mounts

    Mount came today. Works perfectly, as you say It’s just like an Exposure mount but to be honest it feels a lot better quality than the mount I have have for my Joystick light. Well worth a tenner.
