bought a few from wiggle…

should be awesome, shame its not on everywhere tho =(

I have sid xx’s 120mm which I bought from Merlin for 450 about 2months ago, the seem alot more responsive to small bumps than my old fox floats they replaced, the xloc lockout is also very handy for racing and general riding

singular or kent eriksen or form prevail there are many really! both form and eriksen do custom

just under 22lbs

looks smart, not so sure about the uber narrow bars apart from that, tidy!

I looked at them at the cycleshow as i was interested, did seem heavy to me, i think they saved money on the wheels and groupset, as the frame and fork are very similar to the s-works model

looks awesome much nicer than the matte prototypes!

quite hooked on them now, quite tempted by a td-1 but no sign of the ragley forks….

i’m 32/18 also some interesting thoughts on gears here http://twentynineinches.com/2011/01/06/thinking-out-loud-about-gearing-for-29ers-part-ii/ sorry url tool has vanished for me

the course was a safe bet i think, dealt with the mud well. i struggled with the road as singlespeed, my choice tho….

Great organisation and marking etc

current ride, seems good for snow and hellish mud

i rode bits of the course they sometimes use yesterday and it was hard work even with bonty mud-x and maxxis ardent on the front, its really bad in some places with the cley like mud but its mostly rideable just hard work

I live 5 mins away from there and I there is plenty of riding really local, in the woods its part of the there is plenty to ride, near longleat and near the bypass theres abit more, definetly worth taking the bike

getting on really well with it, few niggles with the ebb but its better now, handles great with the niner fork and flies up the hills. im just under 6ft and on the limits of a 410mm post!

I use google reader and i have all the websites i look at lots, like bikeradar, bikemagic etc and ppls blogs that don;t get updated much, its quick and easy to keep up to date with sites

Just bought xt crank from clee cycles for £125 not sure how many they had left tho

it can take a little motivation to get out in the dark, but it is rewarding. It has a different effect to in the light, speed and terrain are different and at this time of year its hard to keep rides in the daylight! plus its good training and feels worth it come the spring…..

i use these nice bearings and seem quite tough, can get them individually as well as the lower wheel seems to die quicker

I have spesh BG’s 46 and just bought some mw80’s was going to get the 45’s but got 46’s and they fit well with regular/thick socks (northface merino wool socks from wiggle) they come up very slightly smaller, but one of my feet is bigger than the other, glad I got the 46 in the end

Might be worth checking that the bike isn’t covered on her house insurance, my bike was nicked from the uni bike sheds and my parents house insurance paid out 1500quid despite knowing it wasn’t at home.

heres my one changed a few bits now, but basically the same, I really like it, nice build quality and light ish. Im 6ft and mines a 19inch and wouldn’t go any smaller

is it looking that bad? i’m reluctant to take my maxxis crossmarks off and the weather is looking ok for saturday night now, or is it generally muddy in thetford?

Im there solo, left it late to sort more lights but i should have enough time, any ideas what the course is like? very climby?

oh was it? bugger……i think its 600quid so going rate really, i expect the on one carbon will be a similar price tho! not had much pace kit, but have seen a few failures

ahh yes money, upto 200 really, as already spent 200 on the race maxx, they get alot of use though. The Ay-Ups look good value

Can u get Ay-ups here anymore? doesn’t seem to be many distributors?

i think its worth a try, i run 34 and upto a 34 on the back, but i think upto 36/38 on the front would be fine

Yeah it was tbh, i've since decided to stick with 1×9 for dusk til dawn as I only walked the steep bit on my last lap. Yeah think i got the singulars mixed up, definitely remember the rigid one overtaking me at some point tho =/

didn't realize the guy who won the solo was riding that rigid singular ti ss! and I was complaining that 1 x 9 was hard, major respect to that man!

Its my first solo 12hr, i'm really hoping it stays dryish so i can keep my low rolling tyre on the back!

never thought to look on facebook, think i'll send him a message, not keen on the naming and shaming as I don't want it to hamper me getting any money back, its definitely put me off using classifieds tho, which is a shame as most people on there are no hassle at all

i'm trying to give the guy the benefit of the doubt as he had a valid reason why it took ages to post, but im losing patience on the lack of replies to my email, i'm not keen on selling it on as its an odd length and no bb doesn't help but i guess its my only option. il know now not to pay gift but i've never had any trouble in the past

not sure really, it lights everything up nicely! the main thing i like over the hope stuff is it tells u what power setting your on and how much juice it has left, some the vision 2 i borrowed didn't do which was crap. I'd possibley consider the toro now or maxx-d if i was purchasing again

Exposure lights all the way! always been impressed by enduro maxx, did invest in a cheap p7 head torch as well tho.

i was all fine, get it from an online pharmacy much cheaper than highstreet. its the other malaria tablet which is abit nasty, messed my mate up a treat

oh damn! u definitely don't get that channel on freeview =(

why is there so many damn commercial breaks on itv4!

cool thanks guys i think il go for the gobi, bugger its not white but doubt they ever stay white
