    Got them fitted, finding them the comfiest grips I’ve run for some time.

    I’m after the flattened size if you get what I mean, but yeah that’d be great if you could sort of the lightbulb dimension lol.

    I’d have thought with the latest shocks from Fox it wouldn’t be needed anyway. Looking forward to the drawings.

    Looking at 4’9″/145cm up to about 5’5″/ 165cm. Super low ST/Stanadover for 125/150mm dropper posts, no compromises on rear travel or suspension. Plenty of Flexibility/adjustment – wheelsize/front fork spec/travel and to an extent reach,

    Headlines
    145mm-160mm rear travel,
    160mm to 180mm front travel
    350mm ST
    668mm standover (27.5 wheels/2..35 tyres) lower with 26″ or 26/27.5

    Now that sounds intriguing, I’d love to know more.

    Recaro hero young sport here, cracking bit of kit, and will last the little dude till he’s 12. Has great adjustability to fit him, plus you can alter the seat base angle to get a really good fit in the car.

    Earlyish spin from home over to Phillips park for a quick loop, set off in a freezing headwind, and came back in one, luckily missed the rain and sleet.

    Speak to keep pedalling, don’t know much about the plus, but the spaceframes could take a fat tyre, may be an avenue to look down.

    There’s plenty of Jones riders to give advice.

    See if scoobyspares in Fleetwood have anything in, if not Scott may be able to point you in the right direction.

    The 150mm hub usually dh width, and tend to use reduced cassettes, so may not fit a full cassette.

    My old commute was 36 sets of lights and crossings in 12.5 miles, and had them all go red one morning.

    Had mine fixed last week, definitely less torque between 1k and 2k revs, and you hear it runs leaner at those revs too. The coffee is ok, and the missus likes the brolly that came in the apology gift.

    Dusty over here too.

    Just shows how compassionate some people can be for strangers, there needs to be a few guys like him.

    VAG cars have two ecus, the engine management one and then the unit that covers all the canbus functions for lights etc, the canbus one is the reason your keys need reprogramming, but it’s possible that either got spiked when changing the battery.

    Your local butcher prices for meat are quite expensive, you can get 10 chicken breasts for less than £15 and 2kg of 5% mince for similar from aldi, for two of us plus our 18 month old including nappies, and all domestic stuff we spend less than £400 a month.

    I wondered that, but then Kevin walked down a path from an adjacent street, so it’s probably a cheeky bit of singletrack and they don’t want bikers peering in.

    And just as the pants weather is on its way to make it feel more miserable. Good luck.

    I’ll speak to the missus when I get up later, we’ve got a load of baby stuff, over Bolton way so not too far, will email you a list if you want.

    What colour does the light look like, if it’s too blue then it’ll be classed as an “offroad” lamp, hence the Kelvin rating as this gives the shade.

    Just got a Robert axle, if you remove your maxle all the info you need is etched on it, Raleigh are the importers but go direct as they don’t stock all sizes.

    Drunken chat with Armin Schwartz in a night club after the Spanish round of the wrc several years ago, bet he was glad when we went back to the bar lol.

    If that’s what you want go for it, I just bought something from the states, vat was less than £4, but royal snail charged £8 handling fee!

    Check that the diaphragm isn’t split as it’ll weaken the mixture meaning less power, or a cracked inlet manifold, our old petrol mower suffered this, also check air filter isn’t blocked.
