    That’s the problem, it’s really rare so I can’t find any to compare it to,

    Is there anything that can be done about? Or should I just buy a different post, it’s annoying to think I can’t use it if it’s cold!

    Mine seem to be fine, definitely better than the 785’s on the other bike, maybe I’ve got the revised versions

    Not much grip on the non clip side, I found wellgo r120b to be better,

    If you want posh looking you might want to consider these;

    I’ve got them in my flat and they work really well, you can slide them along the rail and there’s different types of hooks available as well

    They hog the sofa

    And the draining board!

    They can be irritating but they’re definitely a great addition to the household,

    Very nice – I’ve been trying to get some details from them about a Switchback.

    How did you find their responses by email as that seems to be the only way to communicate ?

    I’m not getting any replies

    Try Facebook, that’s how I was keeping in touch,

    I don’t feel ill as such but I’ve lost my appetite and had a wee out the wrong hole this morning! It came as quite a surprise as I felt ok.

    Just ordered a slackline 631 frame in electric blue, can’t wait to get my hands on it!

    Portland, Dorset, not the best trails but the views are fantastic.

    I’m definitely swaying toward the slackline 631, just can’t decide which colour? 🙄

    dan77

    The forks I’ve got are 140 mm tapered, so I’m guessing it’s got to be the slackline 631 then, just got to persuade the Mrs that I should get an early Christmas present as I’ve been good this year!

    I’ve got a 456C, unfortunately It doesn’t get used as much as it should as I have a full suss as well and prefer that for the local trails, coming from a steel hard tail (P7) I thought I would feel stiffer but I have been pleasantly surprised so far,
    Might as well post a pic while I’m here

    Everything 1981miked said, just avoid the Windsor hotel in Sliema, I was there with work once and they put us up in the Grand hotel excelsior in Valletta which I would recommend, thankfully I wasn’t paying for that one! I’m definitely planning on going back there again one day

    There’s cycle paths all the way from dorchester to Portland now, once you get to Portland follow signs to Portland bill and stop for an ice cream!

    Stayed in morzine twice now, from the top of the pleney lift it’s easy to get to les gets, so I don’t think it makes that much difference,

    I think because it depends on the head angle, a slacker head angle would mean a different rise in mm, if that makes sense, it does in my head
