Fox Unabomber gloves. Top of the range, gnarly hardcore gloves. Quickly wore through the palms from regular riding and came unstitched at various seams.
My POC gloves were similair, been using them a few weeks and the threading started coming undone and the elasticky wrist wrap split after a few tugs. Glad i got them cheap at 20 quid instead of full whack at 50. Still using them, just have to be careful when putting them on and taking off. May take a needle n thread to them soon. I like the robustness of everything on them except the shoddy stitching, but the palm pads and the knuckle guards and are brilliant (i like punching trees when i ride past them 😳 )
i bought one of these in 2002, aged 21, for 300 quid. I was living back home in Huddersfield and my ex was living with her mum n brother on t’wirral so i needed some transport to go see her. Back seat was MASSIVE 😀 8) Me and my ex had some right trips out in it.
Happy memories.
i’m in liversedge and was planning a night ride round the golf course tonight, thought “bugger that!” when the wind started picking up. good work getting through unscathed number18 i know those woods, i bet its carnage in there at the weekend.
what’s wrong with 4g? you could always make a tin foil hat if your scared they’re reading your thoughts. i’ve been using it for a year now, not done MeE eNEEE hAARM
OP: You’ve reported it to Gumtree that you suspect it violates their posting rules yes?
I have done, no reply. The brakes have gone. Be worth saving that guys seller details i reckon, to check for stolen bits and report, not get stolen bits on the cheap.
old “sprung” movies on youtube. steve peat and rob warner as fresh faced yoots always makes me smile.

redbull.tv and go to the mtb section, loads of stuff to keep you from going too mad.
Good to meet you all, was a fun day, even if it was an eight hour round trip and an overnight stop for us up north, I will definitely be back for more 😀
Its the cyclocross lot that are the worse, cutting through the mud with their skinny tyres and wiggling lycra shod bums at people as they pound the pedals up a hill, sooooo rude!
I wouldn’t mind a crack at a couple of the blacks, especially the more natural stuff. I reckon that drops doable, might acquire some elbow pads this weekend.
There’s loads on youtube, some bimblers, some shredders, all look like they’re having fun. There’s an Irish guy who just whoops and hollers all the way down but I can’t find his videos.
