Honda will dominate,Yamaha will push,Ducati will be bringing up the rear and Rossi will retire at the end of this season…Cal is on borrowed time,without some good results he will go mid season.Its all getting to be a bit of a procession.

Real “northerners” just get on with their riding without feeling the need to video and publish it.Please don’t think we are all video star gobshites…

“Free” you say…
So who pays for the fitting labour,dealers ?
“upgrade”…
“Hotlines are not concerned…have seen room for improvement”
I would be very concerned: about remaining stock,brand name and design team.
Any failure of a part in the same place,no matter how small the number, indicates a design failure.
I would say its the least that Hotlines could do!

Slightly off topic I know,but are the batteries getting any more efficient?
Correct me if I’m wrong but doesn’t an “average” AA battery only return about 3% of the power used to fully charge it…

53 years old,ride and race cruiser at Bradford Bandits with occasional regional race thrown in.Started with my son,definitely improves your bike handling skills.

sorry,but a rigid singlepeed!

I don’t get most foreign languages…

I pootle in all walks of life,very happy to do so.Don’t feel the need to put the hurt on anybody or have a need to measure myself against others…I do ride on my own a lot,which is perhaps quite significant!

Sounds brilliant to me,thanks for the link!

Makes me look stupid,took at least 10 years before I could tackle most jobs to a high standard as an apprenticeship/time served joiner.Go for it,you will have plenty of spare time on your hands!I’m self employed and have averaged 3 day weeks for the last 2 years.

go for it…and tell us what you think.I’m sure fork rake has evolved on 29″ specific forks over the last few years,what changes and why I don’t know.I’m thinking of doing it but am more concerned with raising bb height and as you say, toe overlap.
If it “kinda worked”, what are your reservations?

worth the money?
No
Managed to split 2 pairs at the sole and upper joint in the heel area, whilst still having a relatively unworn sole. The worst shoe I have ever bought in terms of longevity.Check out Downhill forums for more of the same.
I race bmx and find them really heavy to spin up compared to skate shoes and they feel heavy at the end of a long xc ride.
Feet First,Sheffield, do a resoling service that includes the pimpled 5.10 rubber.Finding a better constructed and lighter shoe that is compatible with their technique is my next step…

Would like one myself but think they are crazy money…and don’t want to buy into yet another MTB technology that is proving to be unreliable

No

bump

anybody else got any info please?

tea

go to zero g (bike/board shop) and ask for Tom the local guide writer.Holy grail is quite difficult, but by no means the hardest in Cham. Enjoy

I am a builder and suggest that it is more than likely condensation if its opposite this air brick.I am assuming you have a cavity wall?
Older houses weren’t meant to contain the levels of heat modern living requires.
If the wall has had cavity wall insulation or improperly fitted wall ties (original or “new”) this may cause bridging between the two skins, otherwise any water that enters or is absorbed by the outer skin falls to the bottom of the cavity and is removed, via air bricks, by evaporation.
The gravel isn’t the best of ideas, but ain’t the worst:it doesn’t raise the effective ground level as water drains straight through…
Get a builder in to offer advice, don’t ask on here!

470,000 people visited Singletrack website?
I suggest you have a holiday away from your numbers…you are hallucinating my friend!

are there any campsites out there?

Know a lot of people who are hypnotised by Brant Richards

climbing is the new downhill

yes, Dirt is changing its name to Clean
Titanium flying pig anyone?

You guys are so unfashionable…chapeau!

not me and not a picture, but a video with rocks…

visit their website?

Why would you want some journalism in what are effectively parts catalogues?
I don’t understand this need for magazines, too slow and theres nobody there.
Long live the blog

et al…
There really isn’t any news, sorry

Two pairs here, Switch hubs with xc and am rims plus one Switch Tank DH rear.Tensioning was quite uneven when they arrived though they were straight and true…evened out the tension and they have been fine. Rear Tank has developed play in the bearings after not much use but I guess that is where they cut corners on the price…easy to replace with better quality and you have a silly cheap set of wheels if you buy them “on offer”. As much as I dislike the owner after first hand dealings, I have to praise them for their value

I have an sx trail for sale in classifieds, check it out…

I thought they came with setting up instructions? See CC website.
Don’t take advice from this forum,set it up how you like it!

thats the spirit!
Good luck, it will come out…

same problem and same response 2 weeks ago, brilliant service…

Boiling water poured over the outside of the seat post area, lots of it…
ramp up to boiling point from plain old hot. Penetrating oils cause the fibres to expand…

2010 NS Core/Surge, discounted at CRC

I think saddle soreness will be your biggest problem. I tend to get it on long canal jaunts, but use a hardtail or rigid s/s. The riding is almost all in the saddle, perhaps a use for suspension?
Good luck…

No, buy 2 pairs of discounted Fox…

Cheeky Monkey:
Check out "zoot suit", in fact all things zoot…

Ahwiles, can you give me a few pointers, don't mind sensibly executed footpaths..
Carlton, thanks for the link
Pook,this is what got me started, and the descent from Wolf Pit down to Woodhead Farm (one click north on your link).I live in Calderdale and they beat local for length and variety, lucky NYM locals!
Calderdale is extremely over rated…

Swanage?

Perhaps there is a limit as to what you can sell coil and oil damping for,and still be able to look people in the eye.
