+1 windchill

Not ‘pondlife’, rather ‘fair game’.

Only 1 kid, then a small hatchback like a fiesta or clio IMO…preferably 5 doors.

Planning on more…then bigger 5 door hatch.

3 or more then S max type…you can also get a full bike in the back with its fold flat system! Mine was great…but heavy on fuel even with diesel engine.

I ran a medium with 38/26 without issue.

Sliced chicken, crunchy peanut butter and home made chilli jam…tastes much better than it sounds!

Aye, i think you’re right…i’ll just replace them. It just means replacing the tubeless tape which i find can be royal pain the arse, especially as they are working brilliantly at the moment.

Cheers

I use undiluted fenwicks to soak it in, then give it a good scrubs with a hard brush again with fenwicks, dry with a cloth, allow to dry and then apply the squirt, allow to dry, then recoat with squirt the following day.

After you do all that you can just scrub off the squirt and reapply without having to soak etc after each ride or two.

Loads of folks on here have loads of weird and wonderful routines.

Make sure you clean the jockey wheels and rings too!

Have you tried scrubbing it with a bit of elbow grease?

Truly shocking. Had never realised so many souls had perished up there or that their bodies had never made it home or been buried properly.

Oops…double post

Cheers eurokid…did think about doing the same as I have a 1×10 setup.

Cheers Tricky…got plenty of helitape and a csixx protector so fingers crossed the paint will last!

Trevor – very nice…starting to wish i had bought an orange or lemon one now instead of a stealth. Well manicured lawn too!

On another note, did anyone struggle with their BB installation? Right hand went in no issue…but the left just doesnt want to…some very thin slivers of metal appeared…so panicing im going to strip the threads!!

Tricky…according to the manual it shoud travel down the left side of the downtube and straight to the brake mount.

Ive always criss-crossed my brakes around the headtube…so going straight to the brake from the downtube just seems odd without passing the cable around the front of the bike.

Having looked at a few pics of the bandits it does appear a few folks are running their rear brakes on the right of their bars.

No issues with any 2bliss’. Been better than my conti’s and schwalbe’s tbh.

Trevor call me thick…but does your brake cable go around the headtube to the right and then cross over the top of the downtube and then go down the left hand side where the correct routing is?

Ragley and spank do 35mm

^^^ +1 sling…able to walk 3 miles using it with a broken collar bone once…absolute godsend as I was on my own.

Near misses mean bugger all to me…its the one that gets you i worry about. I work with victims of RTA’s and their acquired brain injuries and its horrific for all. Will continue to drive and pay due care and attention to all road users.

Just to many people in life in a hurry without thinking about others.

Bike discount de had pikes for £522 with delivery or x fusions?

Thats all too fiddly for me…just pop a little bit of the tyre off the rim, syring the stans in then pop the tyre back…2 min job.

My RP2 definitely ‘clicked’ into place and the was a definite difference in pedalling.

Knee length sealskins…army surplus jobbies…but the socks not boot liners.

I love the scene where the stormtrooper **** his head off the door in starwars…im in stitches everytime i see it.

Led by example, gained buy in from staff, gave vision and direction, created strong work ethos, coached and mentored, encouraged innovation and ownership etc etc.

Hope it goes well…done enough competency applications, sifts and interviews to last me a lifetime!

10 month old baby + fireworks = f all sleep…bloody inconsiderate winkers!

As stated…would really worry about the fire hazard.

New zealand…both islands

Shimano cost a fortune, uberbike are pretty decent. You could try going 1×10?

I run 38/24 and 38/26 on mine…never really needed 40.

I’m going to try 32t and 34t narrow wide ring 1×10 with clutch mechs.

Heard rubbing candlewax on the inside of the lenses is supposed to work but never tried.

I have a cheap pair of polaris clarity glasses £13…and they havent ever fogged up no matter the conditions.

Nearly bought a Solaris before opting for the Soul. Jumpy twisty singletrack fun all day long and without forking for new wheels and forks.

Rise and shine! Sorry…probably not a good phrase if you’ve been spooning all night :D

Watched it last night after recording it earlier. Never saw it coming and found it quite hilarious…especially the RIP mug bit in the credits.

Must admit i would love a ti slackline too

I like mine with crunchy peanut butter!

Yep…scam.

Liteville have gone mismatched for 2014

Banshee Spitfire?

Wish I understood a friggin mechanical word said in this thread :lol:

I once went to Peterhead power station…but that was 25 years ago!
