Cheers will look at that slug plug too 👍

I had an issue with some car headlights I’d bought on there and wanted to return. Tried to print off returns label but I could only see it was for Royal Mail ie smaller parcels.
Can you do one that you would use Parcel Force?
Tried asking on there and gave up, paid £20 🙄😳

@ Northwind 😂
Bit annoying that I didn’t order the other day when I ordered some inner tubes….. Controversial… 😂

Ok cheers, the price difference to others made me wonder if that kit was ok.

@Cougar, I was telling my 9 year old son about this at breakfast this morning. He looked thoughtful for a moment before getting up and disappearing off upstairs for a while.

He came back down with one of his beloved toy dinosaurs and a little note he’d written:

“To Ren, I am sorry to hear you are unwell and I hope you get well soon. And I like dinosaurs too and I thought that you would like the one that I will mail to you.”

That got me…..

Sorry, only just seen this thread now. Will ping some money over and search for a card for each of them.

@blitz – lovely.
@WCA – top stuff.

Don’t need to remove the bushes to get air can off, unless the spacers are too wide to be able to slided the can off.
If you need to change the bushings then you can get tools on ebay.

No, more than the adapters – discs, cranks + wheels on top of the frame. His call, said he doesn’t have the extra funds.
Shame as I’ve stripped down a lovely bike!

Thanks for help.
Spoke to mate and he’s decided not to buy the frame now, due to the added costs so I’ve stripped the bike for nowt….but on the upside I’ve learned something new :-)

Thanks guys. I’ll have a look later and message those that have them cheers.
I need it for the forks too 🙈
I had a look at a deore caliper I’ve got but the fittings are different.
This is turning into a right pita swap…..

Can’t believe you’re actually asking OP tbh…
Glad your ok after the prang, like others have said – crash replacement hopefully available to you.

How much are the stilts each now?

Cheers for link OP.

Had a quick look, a bit overwelming with so many kits around!

Nice one OP, congratulations.
Hope you enjoy and look forward to hearing about it on here.

Cheers guys will look into those.

wheel size is 47-622 so 1.75″ x 700, forgot to measure the rims but from memory they look around 40mm deep so guess I’m looking at 60mm valves?

Looks good OP.
Have you got links for the kit used please, will probably use a down tube battery.

I did see your add but confused about the front sizing?

Sliced banana and spoon of honey.

Cheers, lazy evening post….
I’ll have a look at tyre tomorrow, good call on the deep rims btw.

LOL, not drunk special brew since the 80s but yes I was thinking it’s a taller can so will find an easier to drink taller can alternative, maybe tonic water, maybe not!

10 years, no brainer surely….They’re so low compared to a few years ago, we did 5 year fix on 5% when the variable rate was 6 point something.

Cheers, need to buy a can then…
Will special brew do? :-)

@redstripe I did Google chap that’s why I asked how much as they have no stock at the mo. If its a 5 month wait then I’ll have to get something else.
Cheers though.

@redstripe, how much was the Swytch set up?

Thanks for replies.
I’ve been having a think about it and as I’ll be using it on the road to build the miles up and try and get some fitness I’ve decided I’ll got for a hub motor, not sure if front or rear?
I have disc brakes fitted so take it they are compatable.
Any advice or links on which gear to get would be great. Seen a few on Ebay but not sure if they’re ok. I’m using old XT 8 speed drivechain so would that work with a rear hub motor? Think they seem to have 7 speed cassettes?

Cheers again for any help.

Replied OP sorry for delay!

@Greybeard, it’s called signed for now not registered post.

OP, I’ve got a 12mm pro2 axle in the spares box if you want it.

Just read that thread TJ very informative.
I need to see how big the battery will be I guess to see which frame I use?

Another Avro peep here…also nowt can do on webite-unepected error.
Looked on MSE at other tariffs just to see the difference, cheapest Fix is £120 from £77 for crying out loud…..
Maybe best to wait to see what Ofgem says?

Nice one OP.

So walkers hear you on the tracks.

Have you looked at Avro OP?
Been with them for a couple of years through MSE initially and renewed with them this year.

Get a Wheels Manufacturing one that the cups screw together.

Are r2-bike any good? Was looking at my
Usual bike-discount but arent even shipping to U.K. at the moment

I see the XT mech is 86 euros on r2
add 12.5 shipping,
plus 20% vat
plus 14-15% customs fee
Plus handling charge

Starts getting expensive

Not sure your maths is right there chap…..
They’ve already charged 19% VAT over there.
Is the customs fee 14-15%? Genuine question.

Well done to all involved. Hope to get up there one day.

Debating with going to see a tribute band on friday. Saw then 2 years ago and they were great but not sure about being crammed into a venue at the mo….

So sad this.
As already said 8/10 won’t be the same and agree, this is one of his many classics 🤣

“Well that’s a challenging ****” is the quote of the century.

RIP funny man.

At least it’s easy to spot the completely mental women now, they’ve got a “sticker” saying Proudly Unvaxed 😀

@DezB
Unvaxed or unwaxed?

Moon on a stick lol.

Currently paying £23/month 65mb anytime calls.
Think same package is £30 so that’s my budget really, will call them later to see if they will do any better.
