    Johnw1984…lovely looking bike,best colour obviously but I am biased :wink: is that the 27.5+ flavour?. 150mm fork works nicely with 29 wheels too in low or high chip position. Enjoy your new precious

    The Thing 80’s version is awesome horror.

    Alien scared me to death as an 11 yr old

    Love and still get scared of werewolf films, guess harks back to American Werewolf.

    Weirdest horror I can just remember clips of is Xtro, I can’t even remember the plot, but seem to recall some gross vulgar stuff oh and an action man. Or did I dream all that!!??!!

    At £3k I still think this is better value, it’s full Carbon, good spec and decent wheelset. On paper better all round.

    I think the modern addition of our Apaches would significantly change the conventional ground war. Our battlefield comms are light years ahead of 1982 too and I suggest the current Argentine kit as most if our kit/units are. Our military may be small but the units pack a lot of surgical punch nowadays.

    Hols2…please read my previous posts before replying, I am not disputing having to pay at all. I was asking a genuine question ref is it normal for admin fee which I assumed rightly or wrongly may be in addition to them inspecting and any charges that’s incurred already.

    For clarity I didn’t put it in for warranty, just repair. On their inspection they decided it was a warranty job (or potentially) . It may save me some money it may not.

    Scotroutes…. I expected to pay them something for an inspection at the very least or a repair if they did it, they are a business after all I am not disputing that I just wondered why it was termed admin fee and specifically because it wasn’t from them.

    Oh god I used the mbr video for travel change and lower service on my pike fork today. In what way is it wrong out of interest. 1 thing that is strange when unweighted the fork compresses as I let the air out of the pump nearly like it’s sucking up. Fork remains ok when pressured up though. 2016/17 Pikes

    Cheers guys. Spare clothing packed. I’ll mainly be mincing the blues I would imagine so I should be ok. Weather says not as wet now but it’ll be what it is.

    Errrr that’s for a pair I think you’ll find. They are UK too so no faffing about with foreign orders etc. I have no idea how much eBay or direct retailers rims cost. Thanks for the short sharp response, always appreciated.

    I have a set of these C33 rims on Hope Pro 4. Nice wheelset, rims seem very good.

    Nobby Nic snakeskin are great on front for grip or both when on trails, any tarmac etc though they are very draggy on the back.

    I am running Rocket Ron snakeskin rear, Nobby Nic snakeskin front. Seems to work well so far in mixed trails (not rocky here though).
