If it's a material or manufacturing defect you should get a warranty replacement. 5 year warranty on the 575. The distributor will want to inspect the frame first though.

If you get no joy they will no doubt sell you a replacement. Think it's quite pricy though.

Other option is to send it to Carbonology[/url] who can repair them.

Why?

I hear they threw a guy out for mentioning signal drop. 😉

Another vote for San Gimignano. Beautiful place.

Are you driving into Florence? Don't! They have something called the ZTL which basically bans all cars except residents, 24/7 all year round. Clicky Linky We drove in and 18 months later (yes 18 months) received a fine for 140 euro.. It's basically a tourist trap.

Venice, sit in St Mark's Square and enjoy a drink or a coffee. Very expensive but you are on holiday after all. Then go and get lost, just go for a walk down all the alleys you'll end up at a canal or the sea eventually. We spotted Gondoliers heading for lunch in a back street restaurant and followed them in, cheap, good food.

Ragley Mmmbop?

As above.

Love mine, normal wheels and gears!

Light and can take a fair amount of abuse.

Don't know about being common as muck, never seen another one when I've been out.

Cheating a bit with the angles me thinks. 😉

In the US the Superlight is $899 and the Heckler $999. So it would make sense that there would be the same price difference in the UK. i.e. £899 and £999.

Let's hope this is the start of a re-adjustment of the whole market to more sensible prices for everything.

Let me be the first to suggest wee in his shoes?

Don't have any pics but I love my ScandAL. Very light and surprisingly comfy over long distances.

Built with 100mm Fox and XTR bits from my 'old stuff' box.

Extremely capable bike. Copes with a bit of rough well and enjoys chasing bigger bikes.

To loose that amount of weight you're looking at frame, forks, wheels and tyres.

Ruling out frame and forks I would get some new wheels and tyres.

£300 would get you some Hope Hoops with Stans Flow or DT X500 rims and some nice new rubber.

Spend the change on some nice tyres.

…a few too many f-ups on the first two to make it worth while IMO

In what way?

Just bought these two things myself, 3/8" drive. £55 for wrench and 42 bits.

The MET Office have emailed me personally to suggest a new route of a loop called 'The Pub'. It is under consideration…

I was contemplating a lap round the sofa and into the kitchen for tea.

Pentlands look miserable (or at least the bits I can see between clouds) at the mo from my office window.

After my first outing a few weeks ago I'm going to try and make this one.

Hopefully be at ye olde shoppe at 6.

Probably somewhere between £250 & £300.

I'll join the gang. Quite pleased about it as well.

Empty office and phones on divert to voicemail.

Off Friday instead as we're heading for Fort William for the World Cup.

😀

Mojo video on home page seems to hint at mid/end of june.

No idea about prices, give Mojo a phone?

LoCo,

Been thinking about doing this myself, never got my finger out though.

Can you PM me with a cost please. For a 2007 Talas 140 RLC.

Email in profile.

Cheers

What about some solid food. Search the cupboards. Dried fruit, nuts, cereal, honey sandwich?

Mix fresh OJ with water, 60/40 and add a bit of salt.

A Snickers from the local garage is always a good backup.

Having used neither I think I can make just as valuable a decision as the next man.

Maxxis.

Is the rule not anything above the neck and you can go for it?

Edit: just read the wheeze bit, may be better not then. 😥

RP23 on mine, works a treat.

Don't really notice it working but the little rubber ring on the shaft is always just at the end after a ride. 😕

A3 5dr 2.0 TDi 170bhp here. The new common rail version if that makes any odds.

Average just over 40mpg.

I do a lot of town driving though

Kerry Katona has been re-employed by Iceland to clear up the huge cloud of white dust.

What about a Carbon Nomad instead?

Centrifugal force raises the fluid level in contact with the cup, changing the resonant frequency at which the glass vibrates and generates sound in rebound from tap.

Good to meet you all.

When I recover I'll be back for another 'easy' ride.

It'll be snowing in Scotland that week. Head for the sun. 😮

**** me, what a relief, that's been playing on my mind for weeks. 😉
