    im in the same situation

    what gripes me is all the posters and email and promotion from my employer indicated 5% !

    im going to have to hunt out the contract i signed and see what the exact wording was.

    i do think that i was given inacurate information were by my employer and Edinburgh bike coop.

    IMHO the bigger issue was the word “preffered supplier”
    The council support a shop local campaign and then they narrow your choice to one bike shop ?

    folks give coagan a break FFS
    he was just posting what he observed
    i had a spin around the glen o’ Stress on sat for the first time in 8 months

    i noted (even that short time) a huge increase in percentage of bikers way over biked IMHO

    we judges the weather conditons at 10 and chose to wear shorts and t shirt we were verging on over heating by the time we got to the buzards nest where we met a large group of gents having fun.

    the majority of them had full winter jacket and trousers covered from head to toe in the latest gear with pads and armour on top. latest poc helmet with very few vents. christ i was was sweating for them just looking at them.

    so IMHO coogan posted a very valid observation which he was lambasted for.

    mind you there more a more similair forum user to myself these days…………. and im a opinionated grumpy 30 something git !

    i may be biased as i refer to armour and pads as ” fanny pads ”

    6ft and had a large
    what sort of riding are you going to be doing?

    it was quite long wheelbase and a fekin hoon on the decsents at innerleithen .
    although a long wheelbase even with saddle up at full leg extention i could get off and on the back no problem

    if you are trail centre 3 hr max rides go for the medium
    all day for rides in the lakes go for a large IMHO

    thanks for all the comments folksr

    i will adjust to 25% sag and take it around my test track and adjust it at little bit at a time.

    iirc is this design not have a different ratio than others ? does this not affest the air pressure IE shock set up is same as anyother bike?

    matt another question if you dont mind
    the pro pedal lever has three numbers but it only has two positions ? any thoughts

    the bike is riding well so far not really paushed it haed yet.
    changed tyres to maxxis advantage and heading to tweed valley on sat with shock pump in back pack.so i will have a better idea after the weekend

    thanks again for the advice DTD
