Tbh the only cure for talas forks is a float transplant – loco your man 😀

What’s eating Gilbert Grape?

oludeniz – usually not a fan of beach holidays without surfing or digging holes… but i love it here – been twice – boat trips are a bit touristy but proper cheap and a good laugh.

Also, spent quite of time wandering around the forest – dead cool but too many spiders.

Summed it up for me, being injured and really ill has been the most enjoyable part of my job. Time to move on and find something else or completely different.

Short top tube so Large would be spot i reckon.

Just a merino top then! Haven’t washed mine yet….

Should be no reason to bleed it just the pop the wheel out trick

Have you tried dropping the wheel out & pumping the lever trick?

Cheaper – money saved = new pikes 😀

Of course, depends what you wanted it for, i went for a Bfe for bigger all rides and everything inbetween.

Sorry to be a knob but unless your going for the Ti slackline – just get a Bfe!

+1 drop us an email be far easier to show you around than list 1000 words document on every turn.

Mad Max II ending scene – seriously how is this a question!?

I’d bin the endura ones first crash with them on when i really need them they just rotated around and i was left with a big hole in me knee.

mtfu and wear the 661’s.

Got the 661’s and the nukeproof ones – often forget i have them on until i’m getting undressed and can’t take me shorts off.

Tried PS3 for a bit, went back to Xbox – just works better, it’s not that much money a year.

@moseymtb

Drop us an email, will show you around the puddles & ruts..

Rick keates – aka ginger rick? Gone solo now.

Once upon a time in the west – ftw

Mad max 4 may trump it though

Also, the most recent batman.

O brother where art thou

Loads mate.

Sett valley cycles – great shop bit roadie oriented but Sam & stu know their shit when it comes any kind of bikes, prompt repairs too : ) 8quid for a wheel true mini service.

Freeride cycles – again cracking shop, one of the bigger ones but doesn’t stock the biggest range of spare, good repairs but not the quickest but go above & beyond.

In-gear in poynton is supposed to be pretty good – stu from sett valley works there.

Bicycle smithy – miserable twunt, some people really shouldn’t work in costumer services….

Royals wilmslow – pretty good shop, but shite for repairs & can sell oil to the Arabs.

NWMTB – great shop, loads of spares but only had luck with dieter one of the mechs..

@mactheknife- you may say that, I couldn’t possibly comment

go on…

Not that often but every fall results in A&E or at least an overnight stay.

I’ve got those shorts!!

Somebody tell Brailsford!!

**** anyway – next big cheat to be exposed..

14.5 hr days then sleep-in,usually 7 hrs the next day. Home, then same again.

+1 if you lived closer, sleepover?

Knowing orange it probably won’t come with isg tabs 😀

or this one http://www.cyclistno1.co.uk/features/maintenance/hope-pro-ii-rear-hub-service.htm

yes i know it’s for the rear but should show how easy it is!

do the work yourself? Sell the car, wife, kids…

Nope, just no double dip 8)

+1 million for udderly smooth. Chafing balls, hands, lips its brilliant!

Zee ftw!

It’s a cracking lodge, make sure your hungry & proper safer to leave your bikes locked to your car or inside mind.

+1 odd bunch of bikes round the peaks.

Seems that 140 – 160 full springys with big rubber reign supreme.

Also, congrats on not getting a 29er!

Did Rachel Atherton ride into a baby there? That’s not cricket

😀 what idiot leaves their baby next to tape on a dh track on one of the gnarliest sections of the track!

Demo’d any? Suppose get over the 18 bikes & try out some or just buy any fs & let rip 🙂

Also, if the fs can’t except 2.4 rubber queen’s its not worth having

Looked at the evoc freeride bag range? Also, lad I ride with rides with a nukeproof critical back jobby but 3hr + rides are his limit.

Not east but will’s wheels deserves a mention, i really do wonder how he stays in business..

Jools, if you’re in marple i’ve got the tools + seal tool.

Can easy get away with sockets as drifts.

As for bearings always use Betd/Goldtec – just ring up & ask for Dan – bearings for pro 2 hub please 😀

It’ll be fine, any rain we’ve had has been a downpour and has been draining very well. Even the streams are dry up there! This is how the road started!

Jesus! Reverb remote right next to the grip brake then shifter, loadsa room.
