    The grilles should pop out. Try using a screwdriver to prise them out. Might be stubborn first time around but should be fine after that.

    Madness IMO. Investing in 26″ carbon is going to lose you lots of money.

    Only if you plan to sell them on. Plus, not everyone is seduced by bigger wheels. None of my riding group have felt the need to move to 650b or 29er.

    I build my own wheels, so as long as 26″ rims are available, it’s all good.

    Ruptured mine in November last year. No cast required. 3 weeks off bike. Lots of stretching. And then more stretching. Did I mention stretching?

    I guess it’s now about 90-95% of where it was pre-injury. Still get twinges, and my calf on that side tends to ache and stiffen up after strenuous exercise. Obviously, I’m not stretching it enough 😳

    Ground anchor? CHECK
    Pragmasis 16mm chain & mahoosive padlock? CHECK
    Wheels D-locked to workbench? CHECK

    Bike thieves thwarted? CH…. er…. Ah…..bugger.

    When they are prepared to saw your (Ti) frame up to steal the bike, and saw your workbench up to steal the wheels, there ain’t much you can do.

    Me too. Don’t bother with it now, but that’s because I don’t bother with CRC any more.

    Those are antlers, not teeth. They hurt when they fly into your face though, as I found out when riding my bike in Reading many years ago.

    Edit: we get these ones every year, feeding on the lilac in our garden. Rose Chafer.

    All of the parts of my stolen Brodie Holeshot Ti were found for sale on eBay/Pinkbike in much the same manner. I tracked down the individual selling them (someone who used to frequent this place, actually) and provided the details to my local police & the police local to the “seller”.

    The police then did nothing for 6 weeks.

    EDIT: This person was selling A LOT of high-end kit.

    Woke up dribbling on the sofa at 2.30am, defeated; there was almost a litre of scrumpy left. I have let you down. sorry.

    Up again at 6.30. Several teas/coffees later and I’m off to the rugby in a couple of hours. I think some hair of the dog is in order.

    I would reach for the hip flask I carry when in the mountains. I would then fashion a rudimentary parachute from my voluminous ski pants and base-jump to safety whilst winking knowingly at the beautiful young snowboarding Alpine hussy hanging from my shoulders.

    Sorry, did I say ecstasy? I meant Marmite. It’s proper scrumpy, mind.

    Most places I’ve worked at have had a policy that generally restricts streaming access, but will allow certain security groups to stream if there is a genuine business need. Sounds like you should talk to your Information Security bod…. If you have one

    Their feline misfortune tastes like ecstasy to me.

    But there’s 2 litres of it…I suppose I could entertain the idea of not drinking it all.

    I used a sledgehammer to initially break the concrete into liftable sections, and a mattock to lever the sections up so I could lift them. So, yes, I think both is best (for your back).
