havent ridden it since so duno if chain goes slack… it doesnt go slack when i test it in the house. if there was too much grease what would happen ? when i first got the bike back he said the moise of the hub wouldnt be noisy at first due to excess grease etc…. anyway the nice noise of the hub came back the other day so yep a fone call is on the cards first thing tomorow… :wink:
its a relatively new bike shop so dont know them that well..but they serviced my sons freehub and his is ok…. wierd realy…..

oh yeah sorry Hope pro 2

yep winter gloves… when they get damp they shrivel up inside…. stil cant unravel the liner…its so **** annoying now ???? lol

lol we are having boiler issues too….. but according to the forums people are sick n tired of the so called experts they call themselves…
anyway we rang the Vokera boiler people cos thats the make of our boiler and they have their own people to fix boilers but its alot of money and its a fixed rate you pay plus a service….just what i needed b4 xmas is the boiler to b on the blink….our boilers water neva gets hot enuff and runs hot then cold all the time….soddin nuisance when you want a nice relaxing bath too much cold water it spews out…been like this for ages…. our boiler is 13 year old hope they can fix it…it probable something and nothing yet we still pay the fixed charge for whatever they change on it….. cud be 50 quids worth of damage or they could fix it for 20 quid yet we have to pay a massive fixed amount of money up front….just incase it costs them x amount of money to fix it…
anyway if you are having pressure problems : it usually means you,ve got a leak somewhere on one of your radiators…

i guess you dint take them back ..unhappy with them ? im gona try anyway… :wink:

oh dear Penny it looks like you’ve lowered the tone …now what ????? :roll: :mrgreen: :wink:

some seatpost have numbers on them (Ragley do) :wink:
but yeah for me different terrain i adjust the seatpost but try not to do too much.. if its proper rocky downhill then the seatpost must go down to asume the attack body position for me – i dont wana fly over the handlebars at speed…thankyou. lol… :wink:

:D yep be yourself….. wots the point of trying to be someone you’re not ????? then you,ll look stupido…

oooh is that kashima coating rear shox

god knows…. i also wear 5.10’s so i would be interested if any has found some waterproof shoes….other than that i guess those overshoe thingys mite be an idea ?

i put fat alberts on my bike front and back -great tyres especially for downhill stuff mud rocks etc you hardly feel the rocks…. im just having an issue at the mo cos i put bigger tyres on tham im used to normally ride 2.25 but fat alberts are 2.35 making them look huge on my rims and proving quite abit heavier actualy, so having to pedal harder which means stronger legs for the summer…lol

oh dear man up… :roll: :mrgreen:

CARD SCAMMING it is called…..OH heck we encountered the same thing a few weeks ago….and found out that the local cash machines had be done over !!!!! the police wouldnt tell us exactly which cash machine but it was local to us….. im afraid you will have to ring your bank and get anew card etc etc etc…. apparently there had been a raid by the bobbies and my hubbys card was one of many numbers that had been frauded…..
luckily no money had disapeared from out bank …hope you will be ok…
