Thought it about time I took my camera out again

Watched episode 2 and didn’t find it funny, a couple of smirks yes but not LOL funny

Must be just me.

Got to the show on the Iplayer and fast forward 2hrs 9mins for his 3 minute interview.

We didn’t choose the platform that we are currently using and can’t take “control” from the current owner.

Is that why it’s a closed forum, John? And who is the ‘current owner’ then..?

All I know it’s a very easy to hack basic old fashioned site and we are in talks with the original owner admin but are bashing our heads against a wall

A UK fat bike moderator here.

No one wanted the job of moderating or helping on line running the site.

There have been a few issues of admin “throwing the toys out of the pram” and now there is only the very patient Jason who has to deal with hundreds of spam accounts trying to kill the site and those who have tried to register on there a daily basis.

Jason has been away on holiday and he has a job, a family, a life and also wants to ride his bike from time to time. So can’t be sitting on the site 24/7, it’s voluntary you know.

We didn’t chose the platform that we are currently using and can’t take “control” from the current owner.

To help Jason who I’ve asked to look in on this thread.

Please can you list below the forum user name you registered with and the approximate day that you entered it in the site.

Or simply register again tonight and write the details below.

Thanks for understanding.

I rode with one of these http://www.mountainbikecomponents.co.uk/items.asp?CategoryID=440&Name=Goldtec+OneKey+Rings on my Alfine’d bike several years back but TBH I couldn’t notice any difference.

In all conflicts there will always be collateral damage, so what about a well placed nuke?

Yes but I doubt it’d be any quicker than a trail ht with 120mm forks. It goes without saying, much slower than my fs.

Would you still say the same if you rode one of these?

Just a shame there isn’t a Salsa distributor here in the UK anymore.

So
the US price of the Bucksaw 1 is $4999 = £3,130.83
the UK price of the Bucksaw 1 is £4999 = $7,981.90

If only someone could go back in time and tell everyone how futile and stupid ANY religion actually is and ban them all before they start.

They want us to send in ground troops so they can take more hostages and capture our weapons to use against us. The simple thing would be to send in more and more bigger bombs.

How does everyone use/enjoy theirs?

On my local beach

And in the dunes

No it’s not full of his normal stunt’s but for those moaning have you tried to ride tricks on a 33lbs bike with 4″ wide wheels.

You can tell the bike was going back to Mongoose the way he parked it in the sea at the end.

Cheers Wwaswas for the http://www.anthonyoram.com/ link.

Nice stuff

These are perfect

The mother in law who’s got a cold and has not an ounce of fat on her is stopping at ours for the moment until she’s better.

It’s like a bloody furnace in here 24/7 atm.

And finally Archie catching snow balls

Is there anywhere to re watch it please?

Just in and it’s not on the TV.

Eurosport have Women’s Budesliga FFS

We’ll I’ve had the original cane creek headset in mine for 5 years now, no problems.

Same here

Interestingly/annoyingly it seems the front axle is 142 x 15 according to Jeff’s fb. Appreciate that compromise isn’t really in Jeff’s vocab but it seems bizarre to go with a new axle standard, especially given that current owners won’t be able to move existing front wheels across.

I guess if you/we can afford a Jones then you/we can afford a 3rd wheel for the bike and swap over when needed.

Why?

Because it’s there

If you can up your budget a little what about a Fargo?

Gary Fisher thinks the Fat Bike market will be 20%

We’re going in October, I spoke to a nice lady on the 7 Stanes phone number and she said that at a meeting on Monday it was confirmed it will be open before October, so it should be in a couple of weeks for sure.

Cheers for all the replies and your coments have been noted.

But I’ve just nipped out to the garage and found an old wtb weirwolf 2.55″ that will be perfect for the time being

I wish the Crossmarks were 2.4″ wide

What about the Hans D…?

Too knobbily on the centre ridge,

I’ve a Chunky Monkey on another bike and know it’s a good tyre but after something more fast rolling.

Keep um coming

Depends when it is and if we can bring the dog to watch as well (no dog sitter)

They do need to stipulate a fat bike is any bike with a tyre as big or larger than a Surly Endomoph the original fat tyre (29er+’s are only semi fat)

So it’s a definatly maybe from me?

When I get in front of my laptop I’ll look into the Flickr/Getty and Istock options.

Cheers all

Thanks all.

If you think of anything else please let me know.

Thank goodness I’ve just got myself a 29er+ that I love or else I’d need one of these…

On One Fatty is perfect for trail riding over the classic double triangle framed fat bikes.

Now as good on beaches though.

Any more?

Hey john, I think I saw you.
Is your shirt in the design of flames licking upwards?
Helmet light on?

If that was you, we passed twice!

Yep that was me, the wife and our Minion, great to see so many out on bikes
