    Can you not just make one out of some card.

    Is it not a case of working out percentages of whatever travel you have and marking those on the card?

    I had no idea the last British woman to win an xc world cup was Caroline Alexander.

    Bet this doesnt get a mention outside the cycling press.

    Was the heaviest I have ever been at the end of January at 14st 4lbs. And it wasn’t muscle.

    Am very chuffed to be down to 12st 7 now by adjusting the diet a bit, but definitely not excluding the occasional treat/day off.

    Still want to lose a bit more but at least it’s not going back on.

    Mine has been great. Shifting just as good as before with only the addition of a longer b screw on the six medium cage mech.

    If it’s any help I think Renthal make their carbon bars to feel like their alu ones.

    So is the lower weight worth the extra cost

    They are claiming the one Singletrack have for testing is also a prototype.

    Does this mean you can’t actually buy one just now then? Because if you can lets see photos of a production version then.

    We’re they selling it for £899 without the shock?

    If not then surely that’s an example of misrepresenting a sale price, as the frame (without shock) was not previously sold at that higher price.

    Except I thought they complained about the rock sections that were on the Leogang course last year. They were removed. They still aren’t happy.

    They all have to ride the same course and yet only some feel the need to complain.

    As its such an easy track I guess Phil is going to smash everyone’s time tomorrow.

    I dont know what has happened to DH but they are complaining prima donnas this season.

    Nice. But £10 delivery to the highlands makes it a joke.

    It could turn out they pootled around the sportive because they were perhaps riding with (unknown to OP) much less fitter friend or relative.

    Reminds me of a time doing a 50 mile charity ride with some colleagues. One guy, overweight, rode with knees ou/ seat too low style, but wouldn’t take advice on saddle height because it was comfy. Only rising he did was a 2 mile jaunt into work every day, no other sports or fitness. Hammered out the 50 in not much over 2 and half hours. No problem.

    Looks can be deceptive.

    I would play it by ear and then see what the rides like. If they are full of bluster and no good, destroy them to make a point, but in a light hearted jovial way. But do come back and tell us if you do end up having to eat humble pie.

    The OP must like their post on Facebook showing all the freshly machined chainring they are about to laser etch.

    Bought a bike from them back in 2001. No problems.

    Good to see they have kept up their excellent service.

    Freerider ELC here too. Teamed them up with some Dexshell socks and were great over the winter.

    I got this once when I set up my new bike.

    What worked for me was just repositioning the levers a little (rotating). It was a tiny adjustment but solved it as soon as the next ride.
