Sam @ singular will definitely sell you new ones, £70 I think

32×18 or 38×21 for more chain wrap

32×20 if the going gets really muddy…

29er SID’s £299 at onone!!

My dell precision M6600 is great as above.

I7-2860 8gb ram quadro 3000m £1000 complete with the latest ms office delivered from ebay…

KMC Z510 HX CHAIN 1/8″

Available here…

Makes the PC-1 seem very poor quality, I’ve previously always used pc-1 and this has lasted 3 times longer and is still going strong.

Absolutely love the 29×2.4 ardents (unless it’s muddy)

All my non tubeless maxxis have gone up tubeless far easier than any schwalbe tubeless ready tyre I’ve used.

Beaver is better allround than a medusa but doesn’t shed as well

I’ve been emailing him about a crack in my Chumba, he was good to sell but not responded at all on the warranty issue.

don’t take your bike, the museum and cathedral are ok, p’boro is a bit of a shithole if you ask me. Take a book

Dragons back seemed much better than MBR or Tarw to me, MBR particularly disappointing.

Over 3stone down since doing it properly from March (apart from beer drinking which starts friday night and ends early monday morning and probably weds night too) I stick to red wine outside of that.

Less exercise than normal as I broke my ribs and then got tonsillitis…

New tyres? Leave em inflated with a tube in 50psi overnight then try again

+1 for muk junkie, cheap on ebay especially if you buy a big pot to share with your mates

Fit the tape now

Open Office

Wakerley doesn’t look that now colournoise…!!

Or if the front will fit a swift fork?

Racing Ralph TLR

That’s it

Maxxis Advantage?

Levers up, definitely NOT down

Proraso, look on ebay. Much cheaper than bluebeard and better IMHO

I’ve got a pair of barely used Advantages, 26×2.4 exo maxxpro now redundant as moved to 29er permanently. Absolutely fantastic on rocky rooty trails, lakes etc.. My email is in my profile if you’re interested.

I think, BETD Goldtec wonky rings for UNO cranks have an offset to avoid this.

windolene works, trim the end caps flappy bits with a stanley knife if they don’t fit in your bars, alternatively buy some nice ones cos the ESI ones are mingin…

Didn’t get on with Middleburns as kept breaking the spiders

Use the uno ring as pictured above then

How do we get hold of you teamslug? My email address is in my profile.

Middleburns and WI ENO’s for me

Full Monty

+1 for homemade soup packed full of beans/lentils, make a big batch Sunday and eat it all week, just the job and filling as long as you’ve got enough pulses in it.

Good write-ups of them on twentynineinches.com

Thanks guys but I am going to hold onto them for now.

BBB’s from dotbike are great

Didn’t think about selling them, you never know I might change my mind back to gears…

PaulD, I would’ve done if I hadn’t just bought the XT ones in the link above…

THESE seem good value and Mister P seems to use them without issue. Anything better out there?

The levers are bloomin’ expensive though, when Rose bikes are selling the new XT brakes for £63 an end… Is it better value just to buy new brake sets?

Edit: Khani’s link seems cheap enough, are the deore ones any good?

Any deals around? I had a quick look expecting the last generation shimano hydro levers to be dirt cheap,, but it seems not to be the case

I was anti apple until we had to have them at work. Unfortunately I had to eat humble pie… They just work really well. Android seems to be in the dark ages for general usability. Complete apple fanboi now…
