I’m planning to go tomorrow. I’m travelling from Colerne near Bath in a van and have two spare passenger seats and loads of room for bikes if anyone’s interested

Consider also Trigon carbon

like the Ritchey but cheaper
easiest to buy on ebay

Good point. Any pointers to good sites with information on EBBs appreciated.

Some good ideas but as I see it the problem with track dropouts as opposed to sliding dropouts is that the brake disc doesn’t move with the wheel. This isn’t a problem with an EBB but Googling has revealed quite a few complaints about these.

BTW 29er and other niche bikes will get special consideration

Thanks for suggestions but it has to be steel as I already have three aluminum bikes. Also Thorn use EBB which I’m keen to avoid.

Phonetically it’s Rose:-

That rose smelly lovely
The bread rose
Rows of seats
He rows the boat
That couple are always have rows

Well you could display your speed
