Have a demo on a salsa mukluk next weekend but they are more money.
Think the fun factor is there no matter how much you spend.

Altura attack 3/4’s on my 3rd winter.
Pocket zip has failed but still wouldn’t be without them.
Don’t think there is much around at the price

Winstanleys had some bargains.

Think I may give up on them and get some winter merino ones.

Thanks for all the routes / advice
I will have an explore over Christmas.
Thanks for the offers of showing me around, i may take you up on these in the new year.

ton, if you have any links for recomended cameras that would be great. Thanks

I’m also interseted in the camera. could you please email some details.

That’s exactly my thought.
Ride fod and Wyre and never had an issue with 100mm Reba’s.
Think another set of Reba’s is best option with tapered steerer and bolt thru just it stiffen slightly.

Never felt “under forked” with 100mm Rebas but would like bolt thru version at least.
Recently fitted Hope/Flows wheels.

Had a look at revelations. Did have CRC voucher but ran out yesterday.

No advice then……

What are these like in comparison to Solarstorm and Fluxient battery upgrade. Torchy-Oriole-2x-XM-L-T6

Following on from this what are the pros and cons for straight pull spokes.

For a Solaris. Ride everything from XC to the occasional DH run.
I’m not what you call a racing whippet .

Was thinking about the arch as comes with QR and 15mm and if I’ve read it right is good balance of weight/strength.
Pity I missed the offer at halfords

Thanks but only have std QR forks.

I use hope bar and helmet mounts, bar universal kit from CRC
Same single bolt fixing.

Have a look at cilary blue for lenses.
They fitted transition lenses to Oakley five squared frames.
Came to less than £120 all in.

Ben. Seems to be a good compromise. May drop down to a 32 in the mud.

Hi Ben
Currently running 33×20. Have been experimenting with 34/32 one key ring but had chain tension issues due to new chain.
I will take a pic of drive side.

Here’s mine.
Running Singlespeed with black spire tensioner.
Haven’t ridden bouncy bike since April

Came to a compromise of Ralph and Nic combo.
Will post pic when I get a chance.

Must have been you I asked about clearance of Hans Dampfs on sunday at the FOD.(Was on a Trek 29 SS)
My solaris should be here by the weekend so will be in the FOD to give it a run at the weekend all being well.
Happy 29ing

Hadn’t thought of that option. Run a stinger on Full Sus

Use one of these from Alpkit

+1 for Hans Dampfs from bike-discount.de
Very tall so check you have enough clearance.

Fatmax.
You could always follow the same route as me and buy a cheaper donor bike then upgrade with either new or used.
Ordered my Solaris frame last week. :D

Running HD on 29r,Best tyre I have used.
Good in mud but great on wet roots/rocks.
They are tall. Just about clear on Reba’s

Ordered a Frame today but no stock till feb so will have time to collect some kit.
Planning to run current reda forks,70mm stem, niner bars and single speed set up.
May have to re-think rear tyre as have 2.35 Hans Dampf.
Can’t wait now.

Have also brought one off ebay from a uk supplier with UK charger.
As have my riding buddies.
Have fitted universal Hope bracket and wide angle lens.
Not expecting it to last forever and may still get my Vision 2 upgraded by Troutie.

Scienceofficer – What tensioner are you using

pete68 no worries think my mind is made up,
Now do i buy a simple frame as currently running SS or solaris with tensioner.
Think the later has more options added to the fact that the blue is to die for.
