    There are some on the pictures of a Gryphon on the Singular site, so they do exist, perhaps drop Sam a line to see what they are, where from etc..

    @Crazylegs, How tall are you?!! Your bike looks like a kids bike in that picture!

    got a Bell something or other from Asda for £13.99. Thus far it has performed admirably.

    +1 for this, the pressure gauge is even accurate, (on mine anyway, I checked it…)

    Great pump for the money…

    lather thoroughly with copperslip

    +1 to this, I didn’t bother first time and it stuck… Now fully copperslipped and no movement, no creaks but fully adjustable.

    The hope SS/trials isn’t quite a normal freehub, the freehub bit is smaller to increase dish on the wheel but you still get room for spacers to allow flexibility in getting your chainline perfect. Also could run Dingle if you want to.

    I think it has more points of engagement too, but don’t quote me on that.

    The Paul’s one is a lot more than the superstar one… I also would like to remain bashless, I think it’s superstar ftw for me.

    Thanks folks

    Don’t use biological washing powder/liquid either… As wibble89 said, it will always look full

    Your hummingbird is flexible if you’re only having one bike. You can always make it into a 69er to give you another option

    +1 for djaustin….

    “No darling, I’ve had it for ages.”

    In fact I’d pay Charlie for a run of those!

    Big…Yes.
    Draggy…Not too much (at least in clown size).

    @Rorschach Can you get them in 29er then?

    Switching forks is helped considerably if you have a crown race for each fork or a split crown race that pops on and off easily such as hope.

    Edit: Doh Clobber beaten to it by Clubber…

    Probably 316 not 613… If it’s 316 that will be fine… Avoid 304 as it will blemish, although it is cheaper

    It’s towards the end of “Elf” for me, when everyone joins in with the girl singing carols and there is enough Christmas Spirit for Santa’s sleigh to fly out of the park….

    I’ve just had 3 days touring in the cairngorms with a topeak mtx beam rack.

    I was under the recommended load limit by .5kg and the thing bounced and swung wildly and didn’t complete the journey despite being bungied, velcro strapped, cable tied to the rest of the bike to help it stay on.

    Never buying a beam rack again… Total crap

    Wouldn’t say roro’s are faster than rara’s myself but the roro’s are probably a better all round tyre for varying conditions.
