nice blur 4x on the classifieds for sale that would be my choice (its a large though) or a orange blood (those new 4x comical ;) frames look nice though, had a look in STW for the 4x tests??

bit further to the east jedi, i.e. down the road from LD coming from the motorway.

can't say much as it's still plans but it has been passed and has some funding, as more it clarified and details are released i will post to here.

no slight on you but that footage is horrid!!
POV is poor and FOV is to tight!!

attaching to the bars is NOT a good idea.. better to be helmet mounted.
colours and light are not handled well

Hi mate. hows things? bet oli is growing up fast…

as they guys above say get a lazer.. costs a little more initially, but costs per page are CHEAAAPPPPP and ink lasts for ages in the toners..

there is plans for a DH and FR area further down the road (another venue) that has permission and is gaining funding soon.

Nigel i am interested in this one

comes with a helmet mount

I know bonesetter, he is no troll, he just hasn't seen the threads.

PAUL WAS RIGHT!!

me = numpty 559 = mtb tyre size hahahaha should have known better

with the correct inner diameter :)
it's 262.0 and 262.3 so paul was right. i got the outer diameter :evil: stupid CRC sizes/

Speshpaul not doubting you, i'm doubting me, i did get the size from "google" not Mavic direct.

819, i looked at a stan's i didn't like the pinning and welding on the rim. looked rustic.

thats for 3 cross pattern.
dunno why there is 8mm difference though!!! thats a LOT!

use this one then..
http://www.wheelpro.co.uk/spokecalc/%5B/url%5D
click hubs then select rear XC
click rims and select "Rim dia" and enter 559 (thats the diameter of a 717)
select the boxes for "Rim / Hub holes" set both to 32
click calculate

Disc side (Left) Cassette side (Right)
3x 3x
270.4 270.7

WOW!! thats a proper job, so glad i opted for the Nomad.. (sorry i know that doesn't help you)

Isn't that whole bit CNC'd?

So THATS what wilber does with his old tyres Keith!!

i dunno but i now know what i will be doing to my orange 5 owning friend next time i see him..thanks sharki…. need a 9mm ball bearing or two :)

Sold it m8.
got the replacement – we are doing a summer season over in the alps next year..

My mates died after 12 months orange took it back, fixed the issue and returned it with 3 bolts in the dropout all at 5mm (old one was 2 at 4 mm).

Don't mess about with contact orange direct they were very helpful and advised to return the bike to the shop, they stripped the parts and sent it up to orange who did the repairs and returned it.

stu they only had a couple in when i asked (i wanted a 36 hole one)

the only chance taken would be riding the buggers after sheldon!!

£70 hope bulb rear?

i'm with Fluff here, having tried the deamon tweeks leading edge stuff which lifted and went crap i've only used stuff from Justridingalong.com

it's lasted really well, not come unstuck or lost colour. i've just put 125cm worth on my girlfriends and my bikes. Will pay the extra to get the good stuff for me, tried those "frame protector packs" too more rubbery that the copter tape but lifted over time and it had this odd ribbed effect on it rather than the smooth tape.

you can get cheaper stuff but i never find it as good.

mine is a 08 so i wouldn't know, it went to tftuned and i asked he said "improved but not dramatically so" so i had the oil changed that made a HUGEEE difference but yet my fast compression lacks indents and the rebound :<

stu i've read/heard good things about those nukeproof jobs.. i know a 19st guy who breaks everything says he can't believe how good they are..

yes there were damper improvements, not a huge leap forwards but as with anything they have learned over a year and tweaked a bit.

i was going to say nukeproof ones too, been hearing good things about them but couldn't find a 10mm version for stu, maybe i'm being blind.

stu the lower DT used to be, but the 240 is a great hub, only issue/problem is bearings can't knock them in yourself without the tool which i think is a few quid tbh (£35+).

i have a friend with hadley and he loves them buy says they require a lot of looking after but they look so good and sound good, pickup is superfast (nearly as fast as 240's)

another mate has burgtec and they are trashed and falling to pieces.. overpriced tat.

rode my brothers 140 pikes and they feel great, love the Ti 456 specially with 140 forks on

Loads of good advice, black nips tend to be useless for some reason. seen (first hand) lost of spesh black nips broken and snapped (at the threads like said above) and one or two spokes (again spesh and giant) broken on the threads.

i had some 717's on DTSwiss black spokes and they were great. (consider i flattened some machine build 317's to a pancake and totalled a 321 handbuilt) i currently have 325's on some Alps wheels and my normal wheels are 719 (but i am in the process of changing to 819 as sadly i have become a tubeless convert, after all i said about tubeless being bollocks and people are just "thinking" they feel a difference i getto's some tyres tubeless and i'm converted. more grip, i don't want to run lower pressures or that stuff as i like my 30ish psi but i have more grip over roots and no pinch punctures! so thats me converted, and fyi thats not a "i think i have" more grip over root's i know i have, round the wyre forest we climb up a cross root'd section so i know how much grip my old setup gave)

my brother has 140 pikes.

Where you based?
Coed LLandegla do female only courses and they also specialise further than that with female jumps and drop days and female skills days 2 or 3 options on the skills you can learn.

bob is a nice fella too.

advantage are bad in the damp though.

since i have gone tubeless i run 2/3 types now.

sloppy mud to damp condt = mudx which will take me into autumn
i admit to getting some ACX to try out as larger mudx tyres.
dry to moist = High roller 2.35 folding

before this as my all weather tyre i ran a 2.35 folding does well in all conditions considering.

ok :) personally look at those new cane creek 100/110 versions, they are a lot of money but use CK bearings and a better sealing.

Tails my post above is saying WHY your impact won't fit…

the impact is designed to "only fit with Campag spec integrated frames"

Notes:
Will only fit with Campag spec integrated frames.

do you have any issue with it's working or feel that you need more out the shock (i.e. more bottom out resistance? stop it blowing though the middle of the stroke etc?) if you think yes then do it..

else no
just get it serviced.

(my heckler was bottoming out although i had the sag right, i got it pushed to have more middle and bottom out resistance was perfect after that, i had a marin that was perfect as it was, no tuning needed)

for the price it's not an issue personally. i'm not paying over 4 times that price for something similar.. if/when it dies get trouty to fix/upgrade it :)
