Mate just bought one of these
http://www.allterraincycles.co.uk/product/104146.html
seems really good for the money.

Tlr im 14st kitted up and am running the firm spring with no
preload gives me 30% sag, seems spot on!

90 or 70mm stem depending on what/where im riding!

The Joes stuff is used under rim tape just like Stans yellow tape.

Another recent convert to r+r extreme,used finish line green for years and
fed up with the mess so thought i would give this a try and am glad i did!

Ikea sell Malaco Swedish fish,and they’re Great!

As bdb says scotchbrite is for brushed finish
frames.

My grey ones died earlier this year and thought the same about
white but after a few rides they look fine(less bright/obvious).

still got them here

Im also 14st and used to run my pushed pikes at 130+ 130-, left the damping as tf recommended and much preferred them, mine never knocked though and i ran them at full travel all the time.

yes.

Other than the branding it looks identical to my dx one!
and i wouldnt say it looks any better finshed.

I have also found stans to last longest, joes sealed just as well but after about
three months i had a weird rubber alien thing living in my tyre, also found changing tyres harder with joes as the sealant stuck the tyre to the rim strip meaning having to completely refit rim strips before tyres.

my brother has a 5.5.1 and if its a bad climbing bike he must of turned into
robert millar lately! he is 6’3″ on a large and thinks it flys,

Should also say free delivery from their own site so cheaper
than they are on ebay.

HH is right spokes started snapping very quickly!

6’3″ on a 20″ fit is perfect, had an 18″ inbred a while ago and
found it too cramped.

Never touch it!

iainc my brother has the same prob and went with the lge, they
now slide down on rough stuff(so most of the time!).

Freak!

Have seen the slim ones on chain reaction, but the 661 site describes
kyle straits as slim? bike outlet price is great though, freestyle extreme
were doing evo’s for £39.99 recently,

2.35 high rollers with no probs, lecht rocks says he
runs a 2.4 big betty on his!

Im 14st and run high rollers at 35psi, any softer and they flop about a bit much for me.

I recently had a 93 1.9 turbo diesel while my car was in the bodyshop,
high spec car paddle gear controls etc.really nice car to drive and
quieter more refined engine than my vw 170 psi td but i found it really
greedy (went through £30 of diesel in 4 days)nice car though!

3m mounting tape is great, very strong and once set waterproof.

4 year old boy-
ben 10
star wars
johnny test
and any mtb dvd’s clips on youtube!

I found they rolled well, cornered well in most conditions
but were cack on wet rocks and roots, then tore two within
the first fortnight of owning them so back to high rollers!
I have a pair of as new 2.25 evo’s hanging in the garage.

I had this a while ago when i had electrical tape lining my rims,replaced
this with velox cotton rim tape and never had the same problem again.

Either police station(dalkeith)
or roundabout at tescos are the
usual meets, 7.30pm(after kids are
down).

keep an eye on it but dont really post, if you want to come out send me a note
(email in profile)
Gav.

Steven a group of us ride locally on a tues night anyone’s welcome!

Yeah but its like the yeti, footprints but no sightings!

I know all around the abbey/golf course never really see anybody else though!
well cept Andy (HH above).
Do you live nearby?

stevenmenmuir i live in dalkeith, where are you riding around newtongrange etc?

When i bought my ti456 i asked about facing and was told i didn’t need done
(already been done), i also get creaky bb but always fine after a strip,clean
and refit.Last time i did this i used shimano assembly paste rather than grease
and it seems to be lasting longer!

?

Another thumbs up for the stealth, i only got wet inside mine once throughout all of last winter and i think this happened as it had got caught above my camelback chest strap causing a perfect little pool(it was seriously p-ssing it down as well!).

6’3″ here and never really noticed this,been riding for twenty years plus(from early teens so was not always as tall)dont know if it comes down to experience!
Anyway cant be height look at Steve Peat :D

not used mine yet!
i have had a really quick look in the garden and the beam
seems good.

Got mine today as well, nice alloy body, 2 o-rings between the lense and lamp body, glass lense and seems well finished. My only complaint was the seal on
the cable into the light body was not pushed in(was after a few minutes fiddling),
had a look tonight and beam seems pretty impressive!
