    My mate was desperate to try out his new toy (despite the weather). Paralysis doesn’t seem to stop him at least he could’t complain about his feet being cold

    Monumental farkin kudos to your mate!…*tips hat*

    I have their Zephir stem which is beautifully machined but the bolts were made of cheese, literally head sheered off two under normal torque 8O Replaced with FSA bolts and it’s all rock solid now.

    Get spotify as above a monthly fee for more music that you can imagine and no more iTunes

    hammerite – Member
    The spotify suggestions….. how do you listen to music when offline?

    This. You can’t, which is why mikewsmith’s suggestion is so stupid.
    Unless, of course, you only ever have background music playing, and otherwise don’t care. Spotify is useless in a car, is useless on holiday where there’s no phone network, no wifi, is useless if you go abroad, and have no free wifi.
    Only a complete idiot would suggest Spotify as a single music source. Or any online or Cloud-beaded source.
    I want to own my music, not have access to it only at the whim of network providers or the Internet. You are renting it with Spotify; they can withdraw your access, then what have you got for your £120/year?
    I could have fifteen or twenty albums for that, that belong to me.

    Errm WRONG!!…Suggest you actually get to know your stuff prior to gobbing off :roll: You dont ‘own’ the music any more than you do on iTunes but you can sync off-line as a premium account user so effectively use it anywhere, on or off line, thus effectively having unlimited tuneage to use anytime as long as your device can handle the space required….As you were. :wink:

    ^^ said mate is dead chuffed, best £30 I’ve spent in ages. Got them on the SS but would hapilly run them on my ‘main bike’ too :D Bags of modulation and plenty of power when they’re asked for it. Organic pads feel great, lets see how long they last.

    @ stanfree, night and day compared to juicy 3’s… different league fella.

    Shredding the knarly is how William the Conqueror used to describe trotting over a piece of smooth track on his long travel horse.

    Yup, only 20 minutes walk from my front door. Their other pub (Charters) is only 10 minutes away.

    I’ve just ordered a set of digital vernier calipers to measure and see if my rotors are different thicknesses.

    Here you go weeksy, I did this a few months back on some of my rotors:

    Avid – 1.80
    Formula – 1.75
    Alligator – 1.74

    didnt have a shimano rotor about but it’ll be in same ballpark.

    why are people so scared of lifting up the phone these days?

    This…I’ve always had good service from O-O, but then again I do tend to revert back to the old skool practice of picking up the blower and conversing without the use of a keyboard 8O
