Mines pretty fancy anc pumps out the water from its system so it doesnt get gummed up.

….google german Xcite forks or frm.Sid 120 wc with carbon steerer?

I hit 75mph on my 125 yamaha trailway….they'res something wrong.
Im 17 and need a faster bike im bored of this one.
Bruce

sorry to thread steal but i have a pair of slr's which just need the front bearings need redoing,if your interested….bikerbruce@hotmail. co.uk

i know him and his family…

this is the first thing ive sold when people havent had to send the wow thanks for that email back…
such is life.

i have been nice and refunded….is it a yay or a neigh..

they have a scratched front hub. which i clearly showed in the pictures,the thing is i wouldnt have minded if he had said straight away but there was a delay saying he wanted to return of 2 days…which made me think.
when i mean scratch…a scratch on a front lefty hub.The wheels are a class other than that BUT I SHOWED THAT…..
it wasnt on here elsewhere
thanks
Bruce

I have one of these….they are the real deal..
http://www.terra-nova.co.uk/Product_Type/Tents/2_Person_Tents/Superlite-Solar-22-432SL.html expensive though.

has anyone seen the wolfen drop on the offenburg course ? thats near enough 1m drop and absalon and co seeem to cope pretty well.
What i meant about rigids is what logic behind it if you can save weight in other ways.They make for a more comfortable effiecient and thus faster ride.
Allways rememeber for anybuild light wheels,frame forks and tyres.
I like the build you've chosen btw mountain monkey.

i still can't beleive your still all argueing over fact.
also i can bet that njee20 and me are some of the fitest(blazin saddles is more so) and still ride the lighttest bikes.
Don't throught the money card as i work and im a student.
also rigids are pointless for anything other than tarmac or cross bikes.
when you can get forks that weight 1200g's and turn rigid when you push a lever yet go down hill in the peaks or on a wc xc circuit without causing internal bleeding or fillings to fall out,what is the point.
as for to road and xc riders riding heavy bikes.If there any good they will ride there race bike or a bike of similar caliber because they will ride for a team and so doesnt matter about the bike.

sorry to rant.

no serious cross racers will use discs till they get light weight hydraulic ones

that ti one above is no waaay 23 lbs….sorry
thats 25lbs at least

18.9lb hardtail and 19.8lbs full sus…..both with 160mm rotors,100mm forks and proper saddles.
Weight does count alot
Bruce

i do an i know pete sharkey…go on the matlock cc website forum he's on there
Bruce

this is totally true…..thats just my bit for racing cx or just riding xc on a cx bike.

right…..stop talking if you dont know cross.

okay.
for cross you want to run something light and flexable with decent bead if your riding clinchers.
conti's and schwalbe's are not really suitable,if you want to get decent feel similar to tubs first get some latex tubes.
The go on zepnat and find some challenge tyres they are very similar to tub in feel and make a big difference.
if you want faster rolling then you can get giffo xs with less knobbles or the standard griffo's.

hope this helps.
Bruce

light weight and 180m rotors? whats the point…learn to ride if a pro xc rider can get away with 160-140 you can because you will not be riding as fast as them.
if you want light formula r1's
look on fair wheel bikes new ultimate have released a very light brake..
….however if you want the lightest….
FRM brake drb 250
inolite rotors
4 ti bolts with thread lock

sorted
hope this helps

resident weight weenie

any more for any more? anyone know about gisburn forest or reeth area

oh i guessed you were talking about the very likely threat of a 2nd vietnam war…..

how totally barmy the system is…give me a proper interview alone and i would get myself in most places.
on paper….
Bruce

thanks guys
keep it coming

if blood hasnt risen too the top of your skin like sweat you crash over the line due to not gripping the bars.
you need to have rubber on your chin as your face touchs the front wheel.
if you havent WOMAN

i have to agree to an extent….at my school we we pushed into 6thform and not told at all about the whole ucas system.
I now am struggling with my a levels but im trying hard to get my grades to get me into uni.However i have friends who have got huge amounts of ucas points for kicking a ball around 2 days a week and handing in page long essays and getting a high grade.
College is usually seen as less quality than a good 6th form but i think i certainly go it wrong

its andy pattison of altura pattison training…

fort william would be crap……also dalby would make a better if not impracticable venue.
Im sure what ever they build will reflect current wc races.
Bruce

royskopp-happy up there…. google it a feel good tune..

im riding a 39-28 set up with a 11-34 cassette and it's great

I love how someone always says you could struggle to lose weight about a bike…..THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY,also want to say that people need to learn to ride there bikes if there afraid they cant use lighter weight stuff,if tod wedds can ride a 29er coming at 18.7lbs in xl frame and he weighs 12stone….lose weight or learn how to ride more.
sorry guys its the truth and you know it.
Btw my bike is 18.5lbs with light setup and 19.2lbs on park scales training wheels on.
much love
Bruce
