    Just gone through the same process, wanted a fully tanalised building and I’m now waiting for my new shed to be delivered from Malvern timber buildings.
    11 x 9 costs £740 delivered and erected but you’ll also need to build a base which costs a fair bit too!!

    Sorry stu, I was referring to the shifter, not the ks remote 🙂

    The ks lever is prone to getting lots of crap in it and become very stiff or stop working:(
    It looks like I need to file down bits to unbolt the whole thing inside.
    Looks like its a trial and error thing then:(
    Wish me luck

    It’s a new style slx double front shifter.
    I just wondered if there was a way of removing bits to make it work without changing up and back down.

    Steel pin had seized up, was badly bent and tried to undo with mole grips.

    Northwind – how can you remove a pin that has been snapped off with nothing to get hold of with mole grips etc?

    Just bought some Town and Country wellies for £40 from the local garden centre. They were far more comfortable than Hunters and more comfortable than my trainers too:)

    Riding at Chicksands tonight, not long after a afternoon of downpours.
    It’s wet in there but hardly any puddles on the runs as it drains well.
    Thai food is great, there’s always veggie options but not seen fish on menu 🙂

    It works fine mavic xm719 rims. Had to get the local bike shop to inially inflate but apart from one of them slowly losing pressure it’s been excellent.
    Northwinds top tip- put child’s glitter in with the sealant, it sorted my slow leak, although a small lose of pressure is normal some say.
    Good luck

    Another driving instructor and agree with Spooky, this is becoming a common problem everywhere and think the police recently made this an offence BUT they’re never going to police it until someone gets caught out in an accident.
    People are using the left lane on the Black Cat roundabout (A1) to turn right 3rd exit to Bedford (M1) sometimes on a faster flowing roundabout and there are regular crashes near the exits:(
    People are nearly always in a rush and will do almost anything to avoid a que!!
    Anyway, time to get ready to teach road survival skills:)

    I’d have to buy a tool to re thread the broken pin, and then the service kit, agreed maybe killed is a bit excessive and I’ve no complaints about the pedal as they’ve lasted 3/4 years of abuse and been ace.
    Maybe I should just buy the same pedals again.
    Just wondering whether I’d be better suited to the Saints??

    One snapped off pin level with the platform, worn bushing on one side and now silver and pink instead of red.
    It’s virtually cheaper to replace than service/repair 🙁

    I guessing foot position, but would a more concave pedal help my foot mis placement?

    Every now and then when climbing my foot rolls off the front of the pedal on my Nano’s, will a more concave pedal help combat this??

    Thanks Everyone, I’ve ordered Graham’s suggestion, they seem a bargain at £14 in the CRC sales:)

    Thanks for your replies, it’s my floating rota.

    Plus one for heli coil, a local firm did mine after I bought a threaded fork of someone. He said they should all be sold heli coiled in the first place as they’re far stronger.
    Cost me £35 for both.

    Added more sealant with glitter, pumped away and rotated in all directions.
    Only time will tell now, so fingers crossed:)
    Thanks again

    From being a boy racer all those years ago I think it goes one size wider and one profile lower.
    To reduce the width of tyre you’d need a higher profile tyre and would have a lot less stability.
    I would imagine there are insurance complications these days for none standard size tyres.
    Personally keep the same size tyres.

    Does dual flow mean dual air? Or is it completely separate to the motion control, ie-other leg?

    Thanks for reply,
    Will take a look.
    I forgot to say that it would be for everyday use and not own a bike.

    Looks great, I have similar interlocking tiles on my loft dormer, architect suggested it on a shallow pitch as it was lightweight and will last forever.
