Good result !

Whiite van, 4 Scousers, surely not?

661 Subgear.
It does not compare to a full suit but its free-moving, cool, light & doubles as compression. Foam on breastbone woud have helped me a few times OTB . Shoulder padding did help me once too, which was nice.

Cheers all, I’ll give it go.

IPA being India Pale Ale? tasty if a bit fizzy…

Hope that helps.

Well in PT!
Good reaction from police. Hope they follow through…

Nice one.
And does “FEEL” make a FS ride like a HT?

^ +1 !!

Contact CTC too. They might just possibly assist but can record it for campaigning.

With it being “too dry” Im back to Green Oil dry wax. The biodegrable aspect appeals and seems to work well without too much kak collection. Opinions?

^ I find ball end types more prone to rounding out but this product desc says “Hex-Plus profile prevents rounding out.” It that real or marketing?

The Schrader/presta adapter is often the weak link as the fit is poor and leakey. Longer barrel wld help. I’ve bodged the threads with PTFE tape before but there must be a better design than the std ones.

No mention of taking mudguards off though. The OP was nicely TIC but jinxing it like that is way too serious!

I want to change the foam rings on my Talas but don’t see a need to buy the whole dust seal kit at £21-25. The STW posts talk of the foam rings being very cheap but I’ve not find them to buy in the UK. TF, Mojo & Loco don’t list them other than with the whole kit. CRC do the bushings but not seals.
Anyone got a link please?

Spec Deviant. More info there if you search STW.

I had a bike nicked from the temporary bike shed about 5 years ago which was not as secure as the one old one. Bike was on a CtW scheme so was technically a company asset. Didnt bother with HR and spoke with senior Finance who handle the insurance ( not the CFO, they come & go). I claimed on my own insurance & the company’s paid the excess £250. I dealt with broker myself; all good. While people saw it was fair & reasonable to help, neither of us mentioned “liability” & they did not have to pay anything.
In the OP case I’d be very wary of pushing liability to your employers regardless of any slight chance of grounds for a claim existing. It is not a trivial thing & they should have better facilities but its not likely to bother anyone responsible in most firms too much.
A more constructive conversation might be around tax relief for capital Improvements & running costs to support secure cycle storage, changing facilities, showers etc plus all the proven benefits to the firm of having more bike commuters. CTC had info on all that, which I assume is still applicable.

All gone now…EOM.

I’ve posted before about the 3 times my 2011 model went back to Canyon then SRAM. Yes it wasn’t quick on two occasions as far as I recall but I did get a new one the last time (which soon had the same for & aft and side to side play) .

It wasn’t the same bike without an uppy downy post but allowed me to “feel the benefit” again and again each time it came back….

Isn’t there a STW thread “What tyres for wet roots?”. If not, why not?

Funny how fast a knob theme emergesunder a “Men’s Health” thread ? Who’d have thought it?

A bit further on & you hit Lee & Crag Quarries & Gisburn. You cld even get an overnight at Tosside there.

Dealextreme have a load of models . There is hook hangy one for a few bucks that has worked well for a few years. Correlates well with more accurate types I’d tried . Good for luggage too.

There’s a whole set of peloton semaphore I saw once. Yup, snot rocket left or right was in there, with more techical ones and do remember it being pretty clear.

Nice thread. Connected community karma!…

Seat clamp torque also a common factor

For ” reasons outside the promoters control”
Any more info?

Gentlemen please, there some mischievous comments here!

OP, have to say it seems like a risky, hassling mod for something that’s alright but not that great ..

Indian is thinner & more colours. It’s MUCH cheaper tho even tho live in West York 3 miles from a flags quarry….
I’ve heard up to £200 pm for very thick pieces. Lots of stolen stuff around too.

I have osteoarthritis in my right big toe. Eventually got referred to Orthotics at St. Luke’s Bradford for custom moulded insoles. They are just right in arch support and stiffness. I was impressed. What are the NHS services near you like ?

Yeah, used to watch it. Not sure if I’m the target audience being (decades) over 30 but the actual riding shots of super-gnarly slick trails get you real stoked, or was that back in the day? Kids were tickled by the Canadian accents oot & aboot .
They do get to some good parks & natural spots all over though. Some quite tempting places… tho the bears at Whistler put me off bit…

Oops, wrong thread… doh..

Go by Cardiff it leaks.

Kevlar quieter but last 5 mins in West Yorks wet & grit. Sintered only practical option IME.

“I think that’s ‘Hot Pink’ which means while you’re not technically gay, you’d try a ladyboy after a couple of pints.”

So is “Dark Pink” when the answer to the question might still be “no” after a couple of pints, but after a couple more, the question might be “pre or post op?”…

+1 for physio, esp one with interest in bio mechanics . GPs not always good for getting to the root cause.
I had hip pain from 1st metatarsal osteoarthritis which affected my gait. Pelvic floor excercises for core strength were a surprise recommendation too.

Thisisnotaspoon has a point. Lots of talk here of aggro which can only be a last resort.
Mate & I make a point of talking to the puppies that yap at you. Usually calms them fast and can set them for life.

Give the man a high five at least! It’s more riding than I’d manage.

CRC have a few Shimano only.There’s more than one E type; one (E2?) is direct mnt. The BB type fits in place of one of the spacers on the bottom bracket I’m pretty sure.

You can get boosters with diversity aerials, and higher gain aerial to plug in Deal extreme had a few.

Good to see! I’ll be sure to check for this when I buy gets again.
