    Scienceofficer is right about the rockers on your bike Ken, looks like you've got the 5.3 rockers on there. The 5.5 were only fitted as standard to the 2008 TNT frame.

    I ran 140mm floats no problem on mine HL, but I did have the (TNT)5.5 rockers fitted.

    If you are interested Ken I have a pair of 5.5 rockers to sell since cracking the seat tube on my 5Spot :o(

    Looks like an XC to me. Bulbs have a much biger body which take bigger bearings to allow the conversion to 12/20mm axle's

    Your right the Pug style is very different to the revamped Citroen style, I was really trying to point out that under the skin they are they same cars.

    You know the best thing's about this thread…

    Those Citroen desgners that are so good against the Pug ones that are so bad… They're the same people in the same office in Paris.

    Those great BMW/Mini engines… RCZ/DS3/207/C3/307/C4 all use the same 1.6 Petrol engine….

    The rubbish Pug Diesel's (1.4, 1.6, 2.0, 3.0), same engines as used in all Citroen's/Mini/Focus/Discovery/X Type/Mondeo/Range Rover/XF…..

    Badge snobs are great 🙄

    Why do people weigh their bike without pedals? Mine got weighed purely out of interest but set ups as it is ridden. i.e. pedals, bottle cages and seat pack.

    Hi

    It's 2 pack paint. After discussions with Turner they suggested that temps over 150c could affect the heat treatment and they couldn't guaranty that the powder coat oven wouldn't exceed this, so I decide paint was the best route.
    I just used a local industrial finishers, they stripped it all and plugges the pivots etc.

    £80 and they gave me the left over paint, enough to do at least 2 other frames

    My HL 5 (5.5 Rockers)is off for paint at the moment, going bright orange. Still can decide if I want the rear end painted too.

    Never tried it in the wet but it's quite fun in the dry.

    The loud click is probably the starter solenoid working normally, could be nothing more than a flat battery which then doesn't have enough juice to turn the engine over. Does the central locking sound lazy, does the glow plug light take longer than normal to go out? Try another battery or jump from another car

    Yes it does alter the axle to crown. Look at the Fox website, gives full instructions
