Has to be the Naked & Famous – Passive Me Aggressive You. I’ve listened to 1000s of tracks, but that’s the only album I’ve listened to regularly.
My best of tracks are on Mixcloud if you fancy a listen
http://i.mixcloud.com/CyAeF & http://i.mixcloud.com/CyAfD

Dez, that 2nd link is excellent. Got any others of similar ilk?

They are VERY poor at the moment. Temps or not they need to get their game together.

I’ll only ever use them as a last resort in future, would rather pay an extra couple of quid and go somewhere with better quality of service.

I’m doing this at the moment, got cheapo Merlin 29er wheelset (£79) Reba rl’s (15% discount £270)both just arrived this morning. Wheels seem well built, all the spokes make the same noise on twang test, not the lightest but for that dough I’m well chuffed. :D

^^ Alternatively buy scud’s stuff for better quality/cost saving etc….Bare in mind the cheapest set of tyre I could find were £50 for tyres and tubes.

Good call and will look nice!

Cheers, will mail pics when built up…

matthew_h sounds like a good range of gears, the 36t sprocket will def be a benefit.

Orange tk, to go with the new white Reba’s!

Apple sauce green and white forks woulda been…All wrong :wink:

Just couldn’t sacrifice the steel spring for weight in the end so I remain very, very inbred! :oops:

tk – Been running 1×9 purely with a jump-stop and 32t singlespeed ring and never dropped the chain on my inbred 26er. Today ordered a 29er inbred and plan on running the same drivetrain and dont expect any difference…I hope!!

Or maybe I’m just not Gnarcore enough to bounce the chain off :wink:

need to decide what type of bike and wheel size suits your riding best, not try and just get a 29er as they in vogue and then just try and get it to perform like a 26er anyway.

Which is why we all need a HUUUUUGE stable of bikes. different tools for different jobs :D

I can’t manual for toffee anyway!

Glad I’m not alone.

Wasnt there a 29’r test in the last issue of MBR?

There was, but it was £1000 complete bikes.

Nice one, cheers for heads oop, sky+ set :-)

You know that was filmed in Essex right? Dat iz ezzy for rund dis manor, demz can’t a bin lokalz…. :D

Meanwhile…terrifying stuff, great find OP!

Not sure my self esteem could take the brutal criticism mate :wink:

Nice one, cheers.

tk46hal, yep at long last going for it, but to fair I’ve only been contemplating a 29er for about a year! :wink: Rode Khani’s 29er couple of weeks ago and was left with hankering to build :D Ordered wheels and forks last night. Absolutely love the ride of my 26er inbred and dont want to lose that ‘feel’ but my head is telling me raw scandal…Arghhh!

Brant, you guys still doing next day delivery this close to Xmas?

Guys, can I have your views on how these ride please?

FINALLY about to push the button on first 29er and cant decided between new scandal or Inbred….Your thoughts Gentlemen please? :D

Zulu-eleven, I have the same deal….VERY inspired by your child free chrimbo antics! :D

rack n’ horns just shot to first place on my Chrimbo list!

Just bumping this thread back up to where it should be. Was a great place to be a few weeks back but the awesome seems to have nose-dived :cry:

Are the n/smokers still polishing their halo’s? Anyone fallen off the wagon and planning the next ‘great escape’?

I’ve been a naughty boy but determined not to apply the New Year empty promise tactic. Having witnessed Khani sucking on the plastic tampon applicator therapy thing I’ve decided to buy one and at £22 for a kit it’s deffo cheaper to smoke, plus you look sligtly less deranged but I’m going in for the kill…If you can make it through the festive bullshit period without a smoke, you’re halfway to the win.

So what’s everyone’s story? :?:

Nice vids guys 8)

Are they lock on? And more to the point have you got a top cap on that stem? :lol:

Lovely build dickie, like that a lot but sizing/geom not right for me…

Cheers for advice Ivan, their customer service worries me a little i hafta say.

Wouldnt condone not wearing a lid, but to do it whilst wearing your pants on your head and some brown leather biggles-esque goggles would truly be sylin’

I killed a bloke once for having a posh bike. buried the bike with him in the woods
(hadn’t seen him ride; didn’t need to. I already knew he’d be shit)

Just worth repeating for being funniest thing I’ve read on here in a while.. )

I concur :lol:

They do dont they…Minds nearly made up. Get your headset press ready :wink:

‘kin’ell! :lol:

Cheers bud. Liking the blue frame a lot! 8O

That said I wish I’d never ridden your 29er as I’ve come away hankering after some more of that…Told you that would happen! :?

Cheers for heads up on this op..good stuffs! 8)

That’s where Speed Dial levers are great, as you can fine tune the amount of cable pull, and therefore the modulation.

+1. SD7’s here and tons of modulation.

Another BB7 user here, as mentioned above spend a little time dialing in the set-up and they’ll reward you with good power and cheap, low maintenance stoppage.

Sending posi’s Sue…If you’ve been laid up with flu and moping around the house feeling ill and low you’re not currently wearing the best suit of armour…Keep your chin up, box clever and remember to play “eye of the tiger” on the way in to work! :wink:

OP- If the deal on the Orange you’ve seen is through bikescene it’s the Pure7 not the P7.

New I should have gone 3G and not just cheapo wifi…Missed a trick there :wink:

Nope as an assassin she’d be a Limited Company contractor, offshore bank account, outside IR35 but jumping up n’ down about AWR.

Female assassin. He is her backup/driver

Self employed then…HR likely not to be an option.

Can I ask what your wife does for a living and why she is being driven around, after dark, by a man?

Dare I say, the boardman pump is great…but you might hafta venture into the orange H to buy one 8O

Can we make this a sticky

My nippers think “lady-pads” are called ‘stickies’ :?

7 and a bit, plus my bit might make 7 3/4…On a good day.

Impossible to track OP, but like your thinking. Now get back on the supermationinfohighway and spend, spend, spend!! 8)

I best say Khani…as I’m meeting him next wkend :-)

OP I have same motor. Deliberated long and hard between a bones or roof system….Went roof bars route and glad I did, was def right decision :-)
