    Similarly, has anyone got the geo chart for the MK1 Blue Pig?

    Can find some online but not specifically for the mk1.

    Thanks in advance, Ben.

    duncs check the German websites as well as Wiggle/ Evans/ Merlin/ Leisure Lakes etc.

    Lawman hadn’t realised that, maybe we could get some made up from somewhere before that?

    Bugger, hadn’t realised about the I-Spec B shifters. Have ordered a bar-mount for the time being, what’s everyone doing regarding the shifter windows?
    I realise they come without blanking plates, so is everyone running them as they come or has anyone got an innovative way of blanking off and removing the windows yet?

    Thanks, Ben.

    Anyone spotted I-Spec B right hand shifters anywhere yet?

    Visit a few of the ‘ruin pubs’, not any in particular but try visit at least one – they’re very interesting & cool places to spend an evening or two.

    I’ve not seen anything similar anywhere else.

    Where’d you order your cassette from?

    All of the German/ French sites are out of stock 11-42 that I can see..

    Thanks, Ben.

    It sounds like it’ll look worse after you’ve finished than it will if you paint the pipe an unobtrusive colour or wait a month or so for it to oxidise.

    It’d also fail any reasonable gas safety inspection if you carry out what you’re suggesting.

    Get the Vaillant, seems a fairly decent price that.

    As a side-note, is that a polished HL Turner?

    Just treble checked mine – it is a bit loose if you rock it back and forth. But once the clamping arm is on it all kinda’ sags under its own weight, and when you’ve got a bike clamped in there I doubt you’d notice.

    Did you leave the little plastic sleeve in the base, then put the upright post in?

    I made the same mistake, and immediately realised you’re supposed to spread the plastic sleeve and put the upright into that.

    Classy, prefer the Orient myself though.

    Edit; is there a ‘such a thing’ as too many watches!?

    This thread has literally single handedly just +lots, to my ‘watches I’d like to own’ list.

    Damnit.

    I’ve had similarly (extremely bad) service from Upgrade, with a HiLo they’d previously repaired, and had failed with the same issue again.

    In the end I bought a KS Lev and wouldn’t buy anything X-Fusion due to the lack of backup/ support. Which is a shame really because their forks get great reviews.

    Just picked one of these up, thanks OP!

    I emailed asking Dave Turner about it, he said it’s basically not available in the UK, becasuse the shipping costs negate the discount.

    Tried mine on the bike on Monday, and although I did get a little sweaty, it was probably vastly too warm that day to be wearing it for too long zipped up anyway.

    Impressed by it so far, I usually run veeery hot!

    Got any pics of yours Stoner?

    Mine’s in the hands of Yodel now (unfortunately), and I’m concerned the Blue/Orange is more of a Red than an Orange, if ya get me?

    Tried a very similar jacket on in Go Outdoors yesterday. Berghaus size chart says I should be a L, XL fitted better.

    Came home and ordered XL blue/Orange, was posted first thing this morning.. I’m excited!

    Still no luck, checked all the usual suspects, even US eBay, Amazon & the Germans.

    Looks like I might have to stump up and get some of the lighter 5:10’s or some 2FO’s.

    Nice! I have all the stuff from my MK1 Pig waiting to go back on, she’s a few years old now, and ‘other bikes’ keep turning my head, but I keep getting dragged back.. couldn’t let it go anyway.

    They just ride so well!
