Cheers guys!

Im goign to be there for a year as part of my degree, working with groups climbing, kayaking, walking etc.

Chucky would that work with my multi map? if so yes please, to daveagiles@googlemail.com

Look forward to meeting people up there!

Just got a 16" for £360, oh how I love being short!

Sounds great! Im going to be working for Marle Hall which is in Llandudno Junction, Conwy.

Ah that sucks, wrong weekend I guess! Ill definably get in touch in September!

I managed to get a rabbit stuck in my front wheel yesterday on the way back from uni.

Its probably a bit tatty, but I know where it is and could post it to you if you wanted it for your collection C_G?

daveatextremistsdotcouk very nice bike, if only those hope bits were in red though!

Try the classifieds!!

FWIW I have heard that they arn't great, better off going for some kona project 2's or similar, I have some on my IO and they are good :).

Ah very nice, better prices as well, anyone tryed those then????

Prices are still the same as far as I can see…

Cant find the other ones, but these as well, think i miss read it because im sure it said it was for a pair. Ah well.

Yeah its normal, they dont do anything other than space the hub correctly, the 20mm axel fits directly onto the bearings.

neil853 yeah looked into those, but decide against it, they were very expensive (+£100)

geetee1972 what rear mech were you using?

I have this http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=47875 and it has been faultless, not dropped my chain once.

Hardest thing is getting decent chainring bolts, I ended up just making my own by grinding down the original bolts, but you can get the shorter ones from here http://www.charliethebikemonger.com/userimages/procart4.htm

Hope that helps

mmm that is nice

I might be wrong, but if there is 140mm of stantions showing then that is there max.

Its a quick easy job to look inside, just make sure you check the service manual for the correct oil levels, and that you have some form of solvent to clean the oil off of the paint.

Havn't used one, and don't think I would be able to trust something that cheep! They are going to have to have to cut some corners to get it that cheep.

Ill take her if TheSouthernYeti doesn't, do you take paypal gift?

Does this mean that all of us that have a normal account are going to have to pay £4.99 shortly? That would suck!

Yes all non u-turn models can have travel adjusted internally, easy job.

Nitro Morse and wire wool will get the paint off,

Finish it off with wet and dry , and t-cut to finish, then you can use a lacquer.

Can get all of that from Halfords, horrible stuff though.

Yeah it should do that, at least that is what it does with me.

Im still looking for some flip flop SPDS, would hurt alot less than using my spiky flats…

…would make change overs in triathlons much faster as well.

Cheers ill drop them an email see if they know.

Another aspect is people taking more risk because they perceive themselves to be safer.

Great idea, alot of variables though, a system that you could send a text to as well as logging on would be good.

I think the last number on the pace model numbers is the recommended fork length in inches.

5 inches is about 130mm so they would probably be to long, but you can easily shorten them internally.

Might be able to make that, would be wicked to ride with a different bunch.

Looks good, im from Portsmouth but going away this weekend unfortunately.

Would be interested as to which way the longer ones goes as well.

sorry the one that you put inbetween the pistons to stop them moving when you bleed them.

The gap shown in the following photo is normal?

If so means that cant use a chain device as the gap compleatly throws the spacing out.

Thanks for the responses guys!

Im very perplexed, yes the crankset is GXP.

Is there suppose to be a gap on the drive side between the crank arm and the bb then?

Yes the crankset is GXP, so your saying that the BB is wrong?

Cant find any instructions on the sram website newer than 2004/5

This seems to be the right sort of thing, but dosnt say anything different to do. http://www.sram.com/_media/techdocs/2005_gxp-05-r5-e.pdf

Help!

I have been quoted about £40 to replace the screen in mine, havnt got round to sending it off yet though…

Hmm ok, sounds like i need to get the parts and have a play, cheers for the help :-)

Is that a switchback, I have one but it dosnt look half as good as that! nice one!

love it zanglion, need to get on the flicr group!

Simon- Sounds like a laugh, my photos so far have not have not had me in there, maybe sometime soon…

Duncan- Looks like yours is going well, love the colour, something mine is lacking a bit of! Hope to change that tomo….

Jim- You deff dont have problems with taking photos of yourself!

I love the way this topic has gone from celibacy to speed dating…

Well im a bit late having been on holiday, but I will hopefully be posting under the name xdave :).

Any way of filtering the photos just to show the ones from members on here?
