try giving them a bleed first
Mine felt disappointing from new but i thought the leaks had caused the problem. In hindsight i reckon they needed bleeding before fitting.

Hmm thats weird – i too had problems with some X2's.
Have previously had 3 sets of Hope brakes over last 10 years with no problems at all.
Treated myself to an X2,Tech lever, braided hose, floaty rotor set up up and within 2 weeks had a leaky bore cap on the front and leaky piston seal on the back. Put the disappointing performance down to contaminated pads/rotors and sent them all back to Hope for a looky. They came back 3 days later fixed and with pads replaced but were still rubbish – levers pulling back to bars and about as stoppy as dragging your feet. Got a good bike shop (Senacre Cycles – Will is a top spanner) to check it out. He bled the brakes and levers and they are now excellent.
Why did Hope send them back like that, whats happened to the legendary quality and attention to detail?
Good news is that they are great when set up well.

Yup, get a tall 6 berth so you have a little extra space and standing room is more valuable than you think. An awning makes a lot of sense if its rainy – you can still cook outside the tent if you need to.
Self inflating mattresses are much warmer/comfier than airbeds and take plenty of warm clothing for the evenings.
Stick to campsites with a decent playground and make sure you can pitch near it within easy vision – makes a huge difference having the kids in eyeview without actually having to sit in the play area with them, you will find your weekend a lot more relaxing having a bit of precious "me" time.
We started going 2 years ago and went from a 3 to a 5 berth in 2 trips. Got the bug and i find it a great way of doing "not much" at the weekends – as a parent you will know how valuable that time can be. We eventually accumulated cooking gear, an awning, self inflating mattresses, little fridge/coolbox, warm sleeping bags, electric hook up, couple of folding chairs, couple of decent lights and torches and we're now sorted. Just add kids, bikes and kites.
This is ours

Eruption by Van Halen
Thats clobbered that theory then!

Saw one on the M25 about Weds last week – nowt since. Local roads now a nightmare with falling snow melting and then freezing over 3 day old ice.

You need to order the OK Baby downtube bracket separately – they come as standard with the headtube bracket.
Try Discountbicycles.co.uk – heres the link Orion seat

Thats so funny – cant believe someone found it

Theres actually going to be MORE Shimano stuff on the market next year due to bike companies reducing stock/production. All the shifters/mechs etc that were due to go on bikes this last year are sitting in clearance houses looking for a buyer now – and its cheap!

No, about 300 miles south
And yes Ambrose, fully justified. Most people i passed that were stuck/spinning out were wishing they had penis extensions at that time too.

Ooooohhh thats spooky!
My name is Jon, i have a Stumpjumper in the garage and a CRV on the drive.
About twice a year i justify having a 4wd and its great

I thought it was both touching and melancholic in a sad sort of way.

If you shot thru 6 cameras on the trot, would that be 3 separate offences or could you argue that as you hadn't slowed down at all it was only 1 offence?

It did rocketdog – have you bought my old flat???????????????????

Please let me know which shop you are working in – i'll make a point of avoiding it!
PS Still waiting for an answer to my question – although i understand it may be a bit below someone of your obvious skills – and i dont know Simon Barnes.
Now, how about asking ME a question that you don't know the answer to – perhaps something about punctures or changing tyres?

I think someone just fell out of the MBUK forum

Regarding the question:-
Why are red bikes faster?

Hey look on the bright side – you may need a new bike 🙂

Hey we had that fire in our old flat! 😀

Is he out of xfactor then?

The PD30 has a whiter light and seems a lot brighter than the older models

Hey, i'll be able to have bowel loosening moments without having to ride up a stupid steep hill first 😀

I'm going thru the same curve – mine arrived today. Lego Indiana came with Kung Fu Panda from Amazon for £7 and a Lego Star Wars was a similar amount. The console came with Lego Batman, a spare controller and a decent game called Pure (quad bike racer with stunning graphics and easy gameplay). Also picked up Forza 3 as part of the bundle.
I think we are sorted for a while with that little lot – its a crimbo pressy – although i do fancy Modern Warfare 2 myself for later nights.
Any games i'm missing for a 6 year old boy?

Hey, would they go under a Gobi?
