    At Uni I did a stint at autotrader- a bloke shouted down the phone, I quit on the spot.

    I’m glad you mentioned that hora, because that is exactly the effect I want my abuse to have. Now that I know it can achieve something I’ll keep it up.

    You should all give yourselves a pat on the back for making a job that no one wants to do even more soul destroying, believe me very few do it through choice.
    The point is. They shouldn’t be doing it at all. If I can discourage them from trying to con people then I am quite happy to do so.

    So you’d prefer them to be claiming benefits instead?

    Most people who do it have no choice, they should be applauded not driven out of their jobs!

    Cold calling is no honourable way to earn a crust. I’ve always wondered how desperate you’d have to be to do it as a living. I’d rather stack shelves, pick or process veg, clean toilets. Pretty much anything.
    This.

    So it’s dishonourable way of people to earn a living?

    Perhaps they couldn’t get work stacking shelves and cleaning toilets.

    Some of you need to have a hard look at yourselves!

    Hob Nobs suggestion works on my V2s athough I see no need to top up as they’re self adjusting. Did you bleed with the bite adjuster wound in or out?

    Either way, I’m pretty sure that he’ll need to replace his 38t ring as well.

    Your not going to get a mech that will work with a 24/38 rings without rubbing, 24/36 is about as wide as you can go.

    Edit: 0nly 150mm

    Your going to struggle getting something with 160mm for that money.

    Strive AL 7 is £1849

    because the mags and other so-called experts regularly trot out “your sus is sorted when it bottoms out once or twice per ride”.

    This gets my backup, so called experts start spouting complete and utter crap.

    Last bleed should be done with the speed adjuster wound all the way out (slowest speed) otherwise it will be slow to return.

    No problem with Virgin here (only 20mb), both 720 and 1080 play fine.

    Noticed a few american sites have been slow the last few days, I suspect it has something to do with the flooding.

    Youtube can be a bit inconsistent at the best of times.

    29er inbred is pretty steep even with a 100mm Reba fitted… I know, I owned one!

    With a 440mm rigid, you’d have something like a 73.5 degree head angle…

    By the time you’ve accounted for 20mm or so of sag there would be little difference, whats the a to c of a Reba 460mm?

    KMC recommend.

    Cleaning

    Never use acidic or alkali based detergents (such as rust cleaners), these agents can damage the chain and may cause breakage.
    NEVER EVER use a so-called ‘chain washing machine’ in combination with solvent. This is the one and only sure way to instantly ruin your chain.
    Avoid the use of solvents, not only are these bad for the environment, they remove lubricant from the chain’s bearing.

    So that pretty much rules everything out!

    Personally I ignore the advice and use the Park chain cleaning machine, I like to live life on the edge.

    Get your pads closer to your disk. Remove wheel, pump a couple of time, put wheel back and you’ll have an almost immediate contact between the wheel and the pads

    This ^^.

    No need to overfill brakes!

    My brain says xt but the 15 year old kid inside me that used to wish I could have the high end stuff is mighty strong!

    If your happy to replace it in the event of a crash then go for it.

    Also wanted to go for medium cage as I run 1×10 but the range of that is apparently 35t on the cassette?

    Will be absolutely fine, running a medium on my 2X10 setup with 24-36 rings and 11-36 cassette.

    Would go for XTR shifters and XT for everything else.

    Its own address you mean, or the leases it gives out to devices?

    BT provide an IP address to your router via DHCP and your router provides IP addresses for your devices via DHCP, which DHCP is causing the issue?

    Is float not as important any more now it’s all nine and ten speed.

    I think it is.

    With non floating designs the rear mech becomes very sensitive to cable tension/setup, can’t be bothered with them for that reason.

    Spesh used to spec Revolutions on the burly 6″ Enduro a few years back, I never saw one with broken spokes.

    I was surprised to see Reynolds speccing them on their carbon AM wheelsets, I’ve always been given the impression that they’re only for light duties/XC use. I’ll have to give them a go at some point.

    Should be a copy and paste job.

    CSS, Graphics and JS files can just be downloaded. In chrome view source and ‘save link as’

    Re-create the directory/file structure on your local machine and you should be up and running.

    As long as they’re not Hope V2s I’m 95% certain they’ll be fine, the vast majority are cross compatible.

    Drugs is drugs, alcohol is drugs, why the distinction?

    ……..it’s fact that you can’t live off minimum wage in this country now.

    You can, just, but only because it’s topped up by benefits.

    Why would a company pay any more than the bare minimum when they know the taxpayer will step in and subsidise their employees wages?

    I’m sure in many cases the owners/directors of these companies are often very well off and could if they so wished pay a reasonable wage, however it might mean they wouldn’t be able to afford that new Aston they promised themselves.

    It’s the private sector that are screwing the benefits system.

    If the weather’s bad they won’t give you a permit.

    When you put your O2 SIM in a phone that doesn’t have the O2 settings, we automatically send you them so that you can send picture messages and use internet on your mobile. Please save and activate them if asked. If you have any problems with the settings, try switching your mobile on and off.

    If you need to get settings again, text ACTIVE to 2020.

    Did she save or open, has she rebooted her phone since ?

    2013 Solo Air spring system for Revelations. Dual Air is a load of crap. I would personally run 150mm on a Trance X.

    Shirley you mean Dual position air, nothing wrong with dual air.

    I think the German sites might sell the levers separately. Only £45 ish!!!!

    I wish, £90.00 was the best I could find!

    Remote button kit may or may not work depending on whether you have scored the inner barrel, problem is you wont know until you fit it.
