    Note: Its just the data on the bottom left that I want to chart. This is:

    Average Power Output in two conditions N and HH

    Total work done in two conditions N and HH

    So:
    N HH
    APO 62.7 52.12
    TWD 210.26 173.93

    I’ve got them on my Pitch, no complaints, although occasionaly I can see the benifit of getting them Pushed or upgrading the damper to the dual flow rebound (effectively the same thing). Not all Rev’s are the dual flow rebound damper though, the cheepest ones are essentialy sektors with Rev badges.

    Rockshox webpage shows that all 2012 Revs are DNA and dual flow. Im not sure about the 2011 forks.

    They come with everything (Including 2 year warranty) other than a shock pump.

    I think mine had enough spacers to drop them to 130mm if I wanted.

    They have sold out fast, but these are the ones which I ordered.

    Merlin Cycles

    Sign up for the VIP scheme (free) and use Top Cash back (Just to let you know I get something if you use that link) they will be just under £300.

    A Bargain!

    How much are they discounted?

    A quick search online shows most results over £350.

    For less than £300 you can get Revelations. Unless they are a lot less than that you would be mad…

    Ah missed the bit about you using a inner tube in a tyre, im just using the valve from an old tube, without the core, attached to a coke bottle.

    The almost neat fairy liquid sounds like a plan next time, iv always used fairly watered down stuff…

    Thats ^ exactly what I have been doing, just dosnt deliver the air quick enough no matter what the pressure!

    Perhaps its because im using a blackburn pump…

    Cheers for the replies!

    The advantage is “used”, although this is the first time I have had to take it off the rim and only then because the valve came off the old Stans rim strip.

    Have done things in a different order, ie, put in sealant, inflate with CO2 put figure over valve then screw in core. Seems to have worked, we shall see!

    Have tried the pikey inflator, i think i need some tubing with a larger internal diameter (I’m just using tube off the track pump?) because even with 100psi it won’t inflate a tyre like the CO2 does.

    Hopefully I won’t be walking home today…

    You can’t go wrong with those canons, I have an ip4700 and its great.

    Agree with the comment about the ink though, for complete hassle free use just gets the original cartridges.

    That grey does look good!

    I have one of the new Virsas and its great, they have really listened to the feedback from the old frame, with a thicket seat tube, better disk brake mounts and more options for forks.

    And a 3 year warenty with great customer services, waht more could you want?

    I would suspect that the reason the GD was inline was to reduce the stress placed on it.

    Wouldn’t be surprised if it bent with a seat radically far forward or back…

    Just ordered mine :). How long are they taking to turn up?

    Yep you are….

    As far as I understand it the tire needs to deform to match the profile of the ground under it, if it is rock hard it is not able to do this.

    Edit: Far to slow…

    Same happened to me, got new frame through within a week.

    Great service and looking at the changes made to the frame it would seem that they have really taken on board the feedback from version 1.

    Well done to Kinesis I say.

    You need tubeless valves as well, you can get these from wiggle as a kit of the valves and tape I think.

    I imagine it would work, but there will probably be alot more chain rubbing due to the fact that 7spd chains are thicker.

    It mounts behind the bottom bracket which holds it in place.

    You can use rules, but as far as i have been able to work out so far these actualy move the messages, all i want is a summary of the four accounts in the same place.

    Hmm, I thought this would be easyer than that! I think its made bit harder because one is POP3, two are IMAP and one is microsoft exchange.

    I would prefer to use Microsoft mail, but that dosnt work with the microsoft exchange.

    (If you look at microsoft mail there is a shortcut on the left to look at all new mail, if only outlook would do that!)

    Thanks for all of your replys!

    The contract to provide SAR cover for civilians will be transferred to whoever takes over the contract. We are a long way off having to pay for this service.

    Its not part no 9, the 2mm spacer is in there (Not the red washer I mean), hub is back together now, the spacing is right and shifts fine, so I have no idea what the washer did, other than the fact that its not doing it!
