Patch as best you can on the inside with regular patch. Then stick a strip of chopped up old tyre to the outside. (Always carry a few chopped up strips in my pack) SuperGlue PowerFlex seems to work well – apply liberally. Jobs a good’n.

I will do Core, when this one finally turns to cheese

Thanks fellas. I’ll probably just use an SLX then… And a torque wrench

That’s a good price – the cheapest I’ve been quoted is £80!

I might have to try some this winter then.

Do we know if todays TV celeb Mr Green Oil himself ever posts on STW?

Thank you.

BUMP

Thanks guys 🙂

Furiously moonlighting. (website design powered by a bit of Stella)

🙂 Thank you STW 🙂

Is it ready to roll – or under construction?

Apparently pouring Coke onto them helps too.

very good 🙂

It’s not me – a friend has taken up the iDave diet after seeing me lose a spare tyre and apparently they are having a (soya milk) protein shake for breakfast…. and they don’t seem to be losing any weight.

I love my cooked breakfasts. Bacon and eggs this morning. nom nom!

Are protein shakes ok for breakfast?

Hello kaesae – YGM.

Funny that we saw a couple of toads doing the same inside a car at a local beauty spot.

Specialized Hardrock is always a good place to start.

Looks like we are actually staying in Wirksworth but it sounds like there’s plenty of good riding!

Thank you guys.

I love that ‘just go ride’ site.

IAIN – I have sent you a mail.

Er yeah – both – I’m completely unfamiliar with the area. Are there any routes published anywhere?

where’s that then?

What FuzzyWuzzy said.

Yes, actual play in the freehub.

It’s just the freehub that’s wobbling.

YGM ziggy

Cheers guys I have contact Triton and will give condor cycles a call in the am.

EPO?

Just bought a Deore chainset for my hardtail. £58 from Merlin for a beautiful bit iof kit. Ok it’s not SLX XT etc but it seems better than my older XT set on my full suss. Long live trickle down.

Thank you guys – feeling a lot happier now 🙂

Early Sunday morning at Swinley.

one on whichever side gives you the best chainline

its for a 50mm chainline…

+10 Col de cou

Arrived today 🙂

I like being a WINNER!

No bodge need – local mate has one.

OK that’s it – I’ll try and ask around for a tool.

It’s a KMC X9.93.

I think I’ll just add some chain lube and be done this it.

It’s not chain lube, it’s thick packing grease.

+1 for Everytrail

They use Cloudmade maps.

Heard today – should expect a set with in the next 2 weeks!

Wahoo! Free stuff.
