    Stopped with BearBack in September. Service was great from start to finish.
    We had young Tom Skilly or should I say Hugh (lads from BB will know what I mean) he was a credit to their operation.
    Basically on our first day he took us round the park and checked us out ability wise, then after that the mountain was ours. Oh and boy can he ride a bike this Dude is fast!
    Me personally if it’s your first time I would get a guide to show you round, it maybe well signed but you could still get way off track!
    Also for me I would class the park more suited to a FR bike than a full on DH rig.

    Have a look at Spruce lodge for pure trail riding, looks footing awesome!

    Never the less Whistler is amazing, I will be back in 2016!

    So if there’s no weld stitching the top tube and down tube together what is?

    Again that’s all well and good but worst case the frame fails and it’s not just the frame that’s damaged but other components including myself, are Lapierre going to sort them? No they are not.
    Also scrapping away the putty will leave the frame in a right shitty mess and If I choose to sell who is going to buy a frame with a visible crack wheat her it be in the putty or frame itself?

    Looks like I have no choice but to ride but there’s one think I won’t be buying Lapierre again or encouraging others!

    Rorschach – what issues you had and any to possibly support my argument please?

    Chunky – all well and good but without further inspection how do they know?

    Yes frame is currently away, images have been taken and sent to whom ever.

    This is part of there response. “the crackline that has appeared on the front triangle is in the finishing
    putty to smooth over the weld and not structural in their eyes”.
    It is an opinion not fact that the frame is not cracked!

    They say crack in putty but not convinced or happy!
    But how can they check without stripping down to bare alum?

    I have the D5 version on a 59 plate loads of power and torque
    roughly 45mpg everyday use.
    Had bikes racks roof mounted but had a towbar fitted for 3 bike carrier, better behind than on top for ease.
    Yes boot us small but once you remove the cover space is no problem.
    Build quality is great and car is solid!
    This is For sale.

    What an awesome day!
    All stages were great fast and techy.

    Big thank you to marshals and all those involved in the event! X

    Trail_rat – do you own a Commencal Supreme V3?
    No I didn’t think so with your comment posted, Smart Arse!

    5 – 60nm range is that acceptable?

    Reheat with boiling water and then reshape to suit.
    Great idea but my hands move about all the time that’s why I will stick with my chunky monkeys!

    The way I have interpreted motorway driving from an advance trained officer is basically as follows

    Lane 1 is the main lane for all vehicles restricted and unrestricted 70mph limit
    Lane 2 is for passing slower moving vehicles
    Lane 3 is for passing if 1 & 2 are being used (lane 2 has vehicle restrictions for use)

    When you have overtaken slower moving safely you move back into L1 if safe to do so or if you are approaching more traffic ahead continue in the lane of least resistance. Basically drive for the gap ahead. You should always be looking to move back into L1 if safe to do so!

    Sorry but anyone who drives constantly in L2 is a cock and a danger to other road users!
    If there wasn’t a problem with this enforcement measures wouldn’t have been implemented?

    Chip – Also at the end of the day who gets the point and fine for speeding? Yes you and not the person behind flashing their lights and sounding their horn!

    I got one for halfords for working on the bike.
    3/8″ Square drive is reversible and range is 5nm – 100+ nm I think, has a good range never the less.

    Anyone had an email recently about the event?

    They don’t use float fluid on forks no more, just soak foam rings in the oil.
    Well that was the way last time I looked.

    You cannot beat a good quality Chinese Sweat Shop! 😉

    Most garments are made in the Far East with a high % Mark up, these garments no doubt come from the same manufacturer but for a fraction of the price!

    Compromising safety through purchasing counterfeit products is a different matter altogether.

    Gravel all the way down to Haweswater, fast and loose.
    Worth doing but careful not to over cook lower corners and washout!
