I have wide feet and I have started using Mavic Alpine XL shoes. Well comfy once broken in

Pivot mach 5.7 / 6

Mazda 6 TS2 2.2 estate. job done (also more space inside than an a4)

Ian w, I did exactly that! I went from a 2.4 v6 A4 to a 2.2D Mazda 6 and it is better in every way, and soooo much space inside ,

Borrowed a mates when I was looking to buy a few months ago. Was a nice fit and comfortable but I found it very hot and pads leaked sweat into my eyes down my face. I went for a POC Trabec Race, same feeling of fitment but better venting for me and lighter. Just the looks are a bit marmite

That trance is nice

Ok, ok, something that has good forks and good groupset, slx or above if possible, something from a main bike company. Not halfords.

Not sure if they come in 29 but shwalbe cx cross tires are good. Got them on my ss comuter

I just picked up a 2.2 Mazda 6 estate. It’s massive! 4 bikes + 4 people. Inside! (both wheels off) 550 miles average per tank and it’s quick

I do like the 9 zero 7s but they are way out of my price range

Hi stu, how much you looking at for the frame and fork?

Nice bike, just need my Orange to sell….

Ahhh! Found this. Need my Orange to sell! http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/fs-salsa-beargrease-carbon-fat-bike?replies=3#post-5945947

Yes Duffer. But it won’t be a SS lol you hero haha

Cool, I like the idea of the maxi, give me something to upgrade too!

Spiders, crabs (the sea creature), swimming in ,near or over seaweed and hate answering phones!

Quite a bit of cyb was closed Tuesday and Friday last week when I was there, Marin is good and as have been mentioned the last bits of penmachno are closed

I want a set of mavic crossmax enduro wheels for my pivot

Anyone use the shimano unzen?

Cool, I have a mule, got a MBLT course at the end of the month and have been told I need something around 15l for all the kit

Troy Lee designs skyline shorts .

I run HR2 2.4 exo front and rear and they cope with everything! Dry trails to snow

Does anyone know how to size knee pads? I found the raceface pdf file but my kindle won’t open it

Just got my hands on a pivot mach 5.7C but can’t post pics off my kindle

Cool, thanks for the replies.

I ride clipped in so not too worried about shin protection but will check out the flank. Is there a sizing guide anywhere or is it a case of try before you buy?

Love the spitfire.

I have done the same as you, upgraded from 3 years on a 140mm HT (Orange crush) to a 150mm FS, pivot mach 5.7C. Can’t wait to get back to the UK for my first ride!

Think of the services like a separate community. You have your percentage of service persons who will cause trouble, skive off and be that admin burden. You also have the percentage that will do what they are told and do what’s needed to keep the seniors happy and just get by kind of like the “grey man” then you have the percentile that work their balls off, do as much as they can, get on any and every course to improve themselves and therefore whatever service they are in. They will do voluntary community work and strive for promotion.

What I am trying to say is people only remember the negative things but there is a lot more to it than that. You can see just from reading the above replies who is serving, has served or has close family that is in uniform vs Joe public.

Does this trail start at the same car park as the twerch?

Message them through their FB page. They are always active and very helpful!

Living in a military house I can’t do things like fit a steel door or too much permanent fortification due to moving approx every 3 years. Any anchors I put in Will have to stay and may land me a fine on moving out, but I’ll risk that.

I have shwalbe cc comp tires on my ss commuter virtuality roll all the way to work lol they are really low resistance but ok in the rain too

what about magura h33 hydrauliv rim brakes?

I have some of these on my ss converted rigid marin palisades trail. Good stuff.

My local cycling club is a mtb club! http://www.mbswindon.co.uk/ and we have our own urban trail. The infamas croft trail (the one behind nationwide as some know it) http://www.mbswindon.co.uk/croft-trail/croft-trail-maps/

Carbon norco range 650B?

Hi Rob, I’m part of MB Swindon,it’s a really really friendly club and very welcoming to all styles of riding and ability. Hargroves is a good choice and recommended.

Glad you have been to the croft trail, not too bad is it 🙂

If you’re sticking around the area for a while get involved with the regular club rides in the local area well worth it. Also swindon is close to Bradbury clump which is worth a ride if you can’t go too far.

metro 2033

no fat people came out of Belsen.

not many alive ones either 🙄

Haha it takes a while, I came off 6 times in one ride at cannock when switching over. One of those was next to the car when we got back. Nothing like laying on the floor In a car park still clipped to the bike with strangers laughing at you haha

Knolly warden

That is all.

Like travo said, knolly. Been reading up on them for months and haven’t come across any reports of breaks in their bikes for a few years! Can’t wait to get my warden!

Normally right next to them when loading them to aircraft……
