Karate Monkey and Scandal at Inverness airport, complete with EpicDesigns stuff.

thanks…I think :o)

Mine was the photo on the front of the HTN site for quite a while. The fool on the cross bike holding up all the mountain bikers. Not sure about the pic at all…

Looking forward to the main event, may even make the preview ride if stocktake at work doesn't drag on too long.

bontrager racelite hard case, 1 puncture in 12,000 miles of urban Manchester riding.

Anyone tried the SKF square taper bb? Just ordered one with a Middleburn and am a bit curious. Bit late I know…

We looked at what we were getting CK headsets from Evolution. Then added the time it took to fit it, as everyone expected them to be fitted for free and decided to stop selling them – it just wasn't worth it. S'pecially when you can get one from the States for less than we were paying in the first place…

Squish's Soma B-side – only 5 of these made in this size, apparently. Only one in the UK for sure.

Available from FisherOutdoor so any decent bike shop should be able to get them for you.

Mines a fixed wheel Surly Crosscheck, full SKS guards, dynamo lights, Brookes saddle and a Carradice saddle bag. Brakes are canti's but I barely touch them. 25 miles a day for the last 6 years.

what he said…strip and rebuild bike, wheel build and multiple choice 'exam'

cheers all!

now I feel a bit dim – thanks all!

that is a very funny pic. :D

I like FreeRideSpain so much I'm going for a month next year – can't wait :o)

open sundays? not on your life. sundays is for riding!

Take the wheel with you to be sure you get the right size. Shouldn't be more than a quid for a spoke. So long as you don't want it fitting.

. It needs some real support from big manufacturers, a way into mass production.

errrr, Trek not big enough then?

:?

I don't think there are any ethical banks, just different levels of unethical.

Co-op don't appear there on first glance and I can't remember seeing them in the news re all the banking stuff that's been going on for the last few years. Or am I missing something?

don't need a crosser for cross racing, just race your mountain bike :-)

yeah fab day. Well done Jase on a new bike. Thought I felt okay earlier but now I'm jiggered.

Shaggy's time was more like 3hrs apparently, he came flying down off Ingleborough at least 40 minutes before me according to Mrs Mocha.

Anyone else think Jebb looked like a sulky brat not shaking Nick Craigs hand on the podium? Just me then…

Ahem, still technically for sale…
:-)

me, eek!

unlikely in the UK as ID only ordered 1 x 18"

mebbe a US member will have tho.

we've sold a few of them.

quite disappointing really – they just ride like a bike.

it's only a chainring bolt ffs, just ask 'em to replace it.

a. that's a rider crying out for a 29er

b. if could beat him i'd critisize his bike choice, but i can't, so i wont.

of coursem had they had 2 big wheels they may have knocked us, Morvélo, off 2nd spot on the podium

more likely if they'd had the extra 104 gears… :wink:

shouldn't this be in classifieds? :wink:

return it to the place of purchase then. Your contract is, after all, with them and not Suunto.

yup, 135 only :o(

yup. fits in a Surly 1×1 no probs. use the shifter that Shimano produce – I think it's your only choice for flat bars.

ta!

I'll ignore it then until I see a bike that's just lovely and only come in 650b

Soma B-side. mrs mocha's got one, it's lovely :o)

:o(

oh that’s all right then…

jimmers, if you look in the singlespeeders catagory then the soloists denoted IM as opposed to SM. Particularly seventh *ahem* :D
(hoping no-one finds any extra laps…)

Schwalbe Marathon Plus – end of.

new Soma B-Side whoop!

could that be something to do with the lack of seal on the crown race these days?

what a load of tosh – you taller people can’t hog all the fun for yourselves y’know. 5’6″ and loving my Monkey – big wheels don’t roll any worse with smaller people on them!
