I would ask them to put on something that matches the spec of the original fork – 150mm etc, and for them to absorb any cost difference. If it’s lower spec, for them to agree to replace it with the correct fork when they receive it.

If they are not willing to do either, ask them why they think you should still buy from them.

Lovely piece of kit, just fitted one on the weekend

I thought to myself as well that doesn’t look like a trail. Certainly doesn’t look like it gets ridden.

I think an order isn’t accepted until goods are sent, so technically it’s legal, but a bit morally dubious IMO.

Is it a vitus? Soneone on another forum had ordered onr, now he has been refunded and the price has gone up.

At full price with a 2 year warranty, it works out at £6 a month. If anything goes wrong in the 2 years, then hopefully warranty will be good. If at the end of the 2 years it is sloppy etc, just buy a new one. That’s my plan anyway. Seems a no brainer.

Fitted one to my Escarpe last night. Quality seems excellent for the price.
I went from one of the Mk1 RSP Plummets, and this feels a nicer quality. Looks quite premium for the price IMO too.

Keep an eye out for Everyman Enduro next year. Billed as part race part carnival.

Haven’t read more than that.

I have wondered similar. Like you I ride left forward but am right footed, and doing it the other way feels weird.

New version as in the 2017 frame?

Revelations are 32mm as well though.

Voodoo Marasa, although like said £400 now.

Needs lighter tyres and pedals offer so little grip, feet bounce around on uneven roads.

I just got one second hand for £150, and have put on some sods.

Get him to end the auction, then don’t pay.

I guess he had it listed as immediate payment required. Obviously immediate to the buyer is when they are first able to pay following auction end.

I suspect the seller didnt get as much as he wanted (well we know he didnt) and as the payment wasnt made as soon as the auction ended, he relisted. All IMO of course, but seems dodgy and i think he seller took advantage of the wording.

Dodgy seller then? Is there no rules against that?

I would be asking them what they could fit instead,as bike specs can vary.

Agreed, but reverse that. I haven’t been to a museum in years, but I guess some of my tax goes towards them. Can the beard history lot really expect the general population to fund their museum hobby.

The machine at one of my local spots has been ‘not in use’ for months now. Which IMO shows how much Forestry Commission Scotland value the income from parking charges.

I also don’t understand why some FCS locations I ride do have a charge, and others don’t. It seems to correlate with making bikers pay at predominantly mtb forests, but don’t make walkers pay where the trails are an even split of usage.

I am going to wade in with

Because going to Spain to look at rocks is **** mental

Been doing this in Australia ( i think) already.

Fair play for spending all that time ‘sorting things out’, but it seems a bit pointless some of it, as when you start riding like a 160mm bike should be ridden, and on the terrain where you need that travel, stone chips etc will just happen too often.

IMO of course. Enjoy it.

take your own mug to Starbucks

There are already enough mugs in Starbucks. Usually hipster dickheads drinking overpriced coffee.

It was apparently a Christmas present, but the receipt shows it was ordered on 4th January, and not delivered until 30th Jan 2016.

Is that downloading or installing from disc?

Its normally faster if you dont apply any updates for the game until after you install it.

It’s PRO though. Well worth £18k

If it was endurpro fair enough.

I would agree with having to do laps being a bit off putting. I feel like I am riding the same short trail over and over again, which of course I am. So not enough variety perhaps?

2000 passat 2.0 petrol 158k, bought just over a year ago for £100, new tyres and a fuel filter, and 2 MOTs later with a cost of £123, its running nice.

That looks pretty manicured to me! What are the smooth trails referenced in comparison? Must be tarmac smooth.

These any good

Will be handy to pull you off the road after you don’t hear a car too I should imagine.

I always find Accuweather to be pretty good.

I like my Giro DND gloves, much harder wearing and more comfortable than the Fox gloves I used before.

Vitus Escarpe?

Not being a brand snob, just knuckleball is a stupid f@#€ING name.

That’s the only one I REALLY want to get rid of.

Ordered some before going riding this morning, DHL for delivery to avoid Yodel.

Anyone had any success in removing the graphics?

Yeah I could be interested.
