Yes wl but I happily put mine on a slimline iphone5 safe in the knowledge that its protected, also had a big off recently and landed on my back full weight on the phone in the pack pocket again no damage

You get use to the bulk tbh and can always remove for non hazardous activities

Nosh :oops: last thing i want when riding, loss of power and attention :D

Defender is what i use for in pack strava etc and kids playing apps
dropped from 6ft onto concrete no issues

PUB[/url]

About to sell my Reign X0 frame medium 2007 I think?? too many bikes

Great band,on tour with the blackout album from 1989, might have to indulge myself only 24 years since I last saw them

Have a Reign X0; been to the Alps and lots of homegrown XC / AM / DH

in different guises – great bike and maestro suspension is classic

You definately dont need an XL if youre 6ft,

Im 6ft and have a medium (short legs though 32″)

philtricklebank just reminded me how much I used to love The Almighty

proper f***ing rock mutha …..

Donington Monster of Rock 1988 / 1990 oh the memories.. might grow my

hair back and go down Bogiez

Obvious but I likey

ibnchris, gutted I moved back to Wales from there two years ago – the fact that a big arse Evans opened across the road probably didn’t help! :(

I use CO2 to blast the tyre onto the rim, then let it all out and add the goop and reinflate with a track pump.

Two Wheels Good Crouch End / Stoke Newington

Big boys are faster downhill FACT

I take my 6 year old boy biking @ Afan green / blue trail and skills loop, local bmx tacks, local singletrack etc etc my 4 year old is riding now too :-)

For Floats put in a round 10psi less than recommended
I run mine at 75 and I’m 16 stone giving me around 15-20% sag.
Rebound fairly fast at 7 clicks in
low speed compression 8 clicks in (holds up the front nicely in turns etc)
high speed compression 0-3 clicks in depedning on terrain and XC to DH

Rear cant advise apart from slower rebound than front as now running a ccdb air with infinate adjustments

owning one of these is very much like being in an abusive relationship. it’s all consuming, sometimes it beats you up, but when it’s good..

:D True, so true..

I had some for my Giant Reign all good and as you say reasonable too

chillidave – i had to send the whole bike back as refused to take it apart having built it up the week previous.
Same as you perfectly good drivetrain, the said they had never heard of the issue and when they looked at it they moved the front mech down and said the hitting the chainstay wont effect the integrity of the frame!
i asked them to change their literature to refelect the issue and advise new customers to run 10 speed gearing.
ive put a carbon patch over the chainstay where it hits as a stopgap – nice on a new frame
now moving to 1×10 as want to run a chainguide and be done with it – adding another £300 to the “cheap” frame
mail me if you need more info – id be interested to hear their feedback to you

i’ve had no problems running 2×10 on either frame, not heard of that one. but when your tolerances are whack all sorts of things can happen..

2×9 is the problem!

OK just measured the BB height (from center of BB) just on 13″ – how does this compare with spec?
Running 160 forks and slackset to 66deg

I had issues with my V3 (December 12) not being able to run a 2×9 set up without the front mech hitting and gouging out the chainstay when set up correctly, on one had the bike back and said it should be run with a 1 or 2 x10 to elimnate this problem – obviously nowhere in the bumf does it mention this. Also no way to run a double chainguide with this set up – not great
The bushes went in the shock after one ride and the bolt in the pivot came loose too
Add to this a shit paintjob which had cable rub after one ride.
HOWEVER
The bike rides sweet, the ccdb is amazing botomless on every drop, jump and even the odd pedal strike doesnt matter as the bike makes me smile everytime I ride her.
As for On-Ones customer service its definately contradictory and slack but as the old adage says you get what you pay for or not as the case may be

Off I pop to measure the BB drop :D

Quick tip – When the fork is serviced by mojo through lbs they generally put a sticker around the fork steerer, take the fork out of the headtube and check it out, should be date plus lbs name

once you go wide you wont go back
780mm here and loving it

They are amazing bikes from what ive seen, looks like they can be hammered hard too in a who needs more suspension kind of way

Enjoy it :D

Rothan + 1
Sold for £10 less than the purchase price four years and two kids later

Had a great night ride last night, loads of big gap jumps, drops and fast rooty stuff all good until…
Last descent of the night saw a rut too late over the bar, landed on my head, thanks to Urge and Poc I came off with badly bruised ribs and a bit of whiplash, could have been so much worse.
Funny though felt I was due a big off been a bit cocky
of late
Reminds me how fragile we really are, hope your mate has a speedy recovery

Never been shouted out, but once had a bunch of chavs drive past in a corsa and launch a McDonalds milkshake at me, it was strawberry flavoured

I’ve had the same Strawberry MCD Milkshake thrown over me too – must be something too sweet for the chavs to finish it

Cycling home near bonfire night years ago had a firework fired from a plastic down pipe hit my helmet and melt a bit out shocked the hell out of me – pesky kids

Problems were / are with 2×9 set up

moving to 1×10 with a straitline silent guide

I also now avoid USC as this starts to look more like Sports Direct everytime I pass it. I do wonder how long the likes of Diesel will continue to supply USC now Ashley owns them?

They are the biggest Diesel mens account so not going anywhere fast.
Also for your info Mike Ashley also owns Cruise clothing as well as Van Mildert so becoming hard to avoid dealing with in the Fashion Industry and TBH its good to finally have some prompt payments!

As a side note Primark owned by the same Canadian company that owns Selfridges hence Primark jeans will be sold in Selfridges.

BRANDS are dead long live BRANDS

@gsp All good here – Some seriously good trails in South Wales – when are you and the crew coming? bummer on the broken arm, are you doing the PDS or just going for the crack?
Thinking Andorra or Austria for my trip this year

Thanks

Anyone in Newcastle?

Cardiff is mega snowy, kids are off school might have to have a snow day!

4 wheel drive is on for a supermarket run :lol:

Time Z about to sell a couple of sets of mine as im fully flat pedals now

Loved them though the feeling of wearing a normal shoe on the pedal is not the best as the mechanisim is raised
