    ^^^ i would stick to foot paths if i was you. half of what you said up there is utter crap. think before you slag some one of on an internet forum. Im sure ill get held up by you going down hill and you will just ignore the fact im behind you… then get annoyed when i over take you …. anyway im not arguing with some utter pillock on here who can’t even state facts correctly, as i said previously i ride ov :oops:er cannock pretty often, i remember you on a blue singular swift , ill keep an eye out for you, that’s if im not lying in a ditch some where as you stated earlier. what kind of acomment is that ? I rode all day Sunday , had a good day aswell i only met one tool all day and it looks like that was you TINA. NOW SOD OFF before you make matters worse for yourself .

    Pointless skidding so you were there then? Oh dear don’t always believe what you read.

    Haha funny as ! Best thread in ages, yes it was me who is responsible for all the breaking bumps pmsl

    i could get offended at this post due to the lying in a ditch some where but the best part is i didn’t see him he took a short cut haha . I remember being behind you on the descent just before you over cooked it . after that i held the gate open for you over the rail way line and you completely blanked me. i even offered you went in front of me at the climb after the railway but you said noyou have gears mate , you’ve got ge ars go ahead ` so i climb to the top and rested , shortly after that you arrived at the top , i let you go a head then i don’t see you until the top of the next climb, where your talking to 2 guys. i carry on and finish the monkey and see no trace of you…. then i complete a lap of the dog and i never see you again !

    So your upset i was behind you when you over cooked it the corner or i was quicker around the monkey. that’s the way i see it. Next time (im over there quite often, as you state and yes i do ride other places ) why don’t you say hello. ill look out for you and you can say it to my face not on a forum ….

    Anyway I’ve been mtbing for 15 years and love it, had quite a few friendly chats along the way and tagged along with a few good riders , oh and im now famous my first thread about me on STW after nearly 6 years and lol :)

    Dt swiss x12 its about 80quid , mine was made out of cheese, wouldn’t recomend at all. You need 142mm x 12 axle . I’ve just brought the syntace x12 from bike discount.de its by far the cheapest option and it gets the job done.

    Was running fat Alberts 2.4 evos good levels of grip overall even in the mud, i find they had to be run at lowish pressures otherwise they were rubbish. get the Psi right and there a great tyre, light weight too but they have recently suffered a tear and the side nobs had started to tear, had them for around 12 months.

    Just changed to high roller 2s brilliant levels of grip and they certainly feel more robust.

    I stuck the large spacer in today, big thanks to loco for sending them so fast.

    Made a big difference the shock doesn’t blow through its travel and feels much more progressive. such a cheap upgrade but one that’s transformed the feel of my bike. nice one to the op for bring this to my attention :)

    A peugeot thing with a bright green paint job it lasted 2 rides around clent hills, halfords told my old man when he took it back that it wasn’t really meant for real off road haha

    so i guess my first real mtb was my diamond back topanga , loved that bike. gave up track racing and cyclo cross shortly after getting that bike, i was well and truely hooked. I was 14 at the time, im now 34 :)

    I don’t think any ring will do, i want the big ring off and replace the the middle with something a little larger.. I want to keep the smaller ring though

    Jamesy
    Free Member

    I think the stinger fouls the chain stay as there so wide. and there are no iscg tabs on a cube stereo

    haribo, what middle ring did you fit ? Do you know if a 34t or a 36t middle Will fit ?

    hi haribo,

    Ive just brought the chainguide you mention. how are you finding it? did you just take off your big ring and run the 2 chainrings that were standard? I would like to change the middle ring to a 34 or 36t do you know if this is possible or anyone else infact? :)

    i need to order the middle ring soon also is it ok to run your existing shifters and front mech?
