Almost some of the above Hudson Mohawke no rhyme not melodic but a strong STRONG beat 😯

Grand

nearly like for like it is then managed to fine an XT over Deore so am a rather happy man
😀

NO!!

must be mineral oil

THIS can fix most things 😀

Slight hijack,

Does anyone know if you can get these with coloured hubs and white flow rims?? sure I saw them somewhere but can't seem to find them anywhere now.

09 Zesty 514 and the headset bearings were proper poo, noticed there was a problem when it used to leak water after a ride. They have been replaced with standard Cane creek ones now though and have been fine. the originals were mild steel so rusted and seized within six months.
Other than that the bikes been great starting to get a bit of corrosion on the bars at the moment though but not enough to really worry about, wanted white ones any way Ho Hum 😀

Yes but its not cheap

Mike T,

you should be fine with that route, may be a little ice but its very patchy.

five………… do I get a prize

blow torch

heat, hot air guns probably better, the stickers till soft peel them off then use meths/iso alcohol to remove the glue.

The meeting house[/url] opposite the station is good and if you don't mind a short drive, taxi trip I can recommend the Dalton arms[/url] in glasson as well.

Also second bistro 26

white spirits and elbow grease, if you use heat first there is normally much less glue left behind.

goes back to removing miles of vinyl from a 7 meter banner 😕

you could try this stuff[/url] it seems to have a load of different uses and is silicone based

Glenh,

Hope what you say is true, haven't taken the bearing covers off so have no idea what's underneath them. Hope if they are cartridge bearings that they hold up better than the headset did which died after three months (hence the regular greasing now) It was made of rusty cheese and exploded in my hand when I tried to clean it.

2001 kind of ish????

Grumm,

Taa mate, really want one of those bash guards but was struggling to find the bolts to fit it. good tyres round here thems….well I like them

Sam

Sorry for new bike but questions.

Grumm where did you get the fitting bolts for your bash?? is your back tyre a purgatory if so is it one of the ones with thick er side walls? where did you get that??

Sorry loads of Q's

Kel,

that's just weird…… silk gloves though then your in a whole new world.

Seriously though get some silk glove liners they really do the trick used them in Finland there great. I got mine from Decathlon pretty sure you can get them on line though from backpacking light

After a recent rather hefty bill, from Mojo

they are a bit expensive for what they are but as you said cheaper than the alternative 🙂

Here

try again.

Whoop its worked, proper wet but we all made it down in one piece
😀

Reminds me that we all got down in one piece, it was a vrey wet weekend

Ok now I know what to get any body any Idea where to get shimano spokes the tool seam easy

775 the less tough ones 🙄

stubbled on this on flea bay
linnkyy not long left and not mine.
I wouldn't sell mine unless I couldn't ride again

flat tonic water EEEWWWWWWWWWW 😯 but if it works may be worth a go.

Mister T, already have a healthy diet almost no takeout here, tastes crap most of the time anyway. Was thinking about reducing the coffee intake and increasing the amount or water I drink but there is no portable water at work and already carry 3 litres a day in as it is, maybe adapt one of them caravan roller things into a trailer type affair. 😀

noidea, had forgot about quinine used to drink iron brew preride for it but the caffine made sweet more 😮 will check out the juice additive see what thats like.

Any idea what's the cause of cramp seem to be little rhyme or reason for its onset it was after a decent last night where as its normally after a climb

Sintered here all year round, organics tend to be softer giving a bit more power, apparently, but wear out loads quicker. If you factor in mud to this you can quite easily us one set of pads per ride.

Mine was set up stationary up against a wall with both feet on the peddles, made sure the sagometer jobby pointed between the two marks, XC & XR, which it did first time, lucky for me. Same time did the fork so there was about 30mm ish sag by using a cable tie, can't remember the pressure sorry and I'm a bit heavier than you at 75Kg.
Seemed really easy at the time and has ridden really well since. Its last years 514.
Go with the indicator they put it there to make it easy 🙂

anc, you should have seen the gully and water fall a little further down to wards the campsite proper BIG WATER. looks like your picture was taken pretty much exactly where we got ours

TandemJeremy

no room for two bikes, not a complete blind bend but evil cheep red Lancashire tarmac and leaves and any brakes= fail

always too fast but that's all relative in't it? as before she was a bit old for me.

Crazy legs, that sucks mate thought i'd got away with it last night

Simon its looking down stonethwaite beck from greenup gill. we've been going up there and camping at the NT campsite for years and that's the highest the becks ever been, rosthwaite decent was interesting it this weather so much so we did it twice 😆
first pics the surprise view………………….the surprise there wasn't one

Yeah not crashing would have been great but its autumn there are leaves on the ground and, as has been said on here once or twice :wink:, mountain kings grip on nowt :-).

Mr Nutt I have no idea what your on about and she was far to old for me any way.

This encounter, shouldn't really call it that on here just asking for it really :roll:, has made me change the batteries in my lights though so some good has come of it.

thanks for all the info chaps,
will nearly certainly be there 8th November but not going to be able to do midweeks as I would probably get the sack 🙂
