I’m not, but elixir pissing fluid, sram not getting internals till 10th August, sucks.

Email me mate,Might be able to help you here.I have a Lever rebuild kit.

My mate is now,After this evenings ride,did his ankle. 😯

Waiting for a stealth routed one.

Better be good

Welcome to Lanyon Holiday Park, South West Cornwall

Near me,If you are struggling to find somewhere.

Bring a bike will take you out for a local ride

I have Just ordered a set of Bont MTB shoes.

Will let you know what they are like.

Good i hope at the price they are

Some of the older Fords suffered from the boot light being on,when the boot was closed,will run the battery down,Was a switch fault

nicolaisam

what is it like on the ups??

Pedals excellently for its weight.
as Geetee mentioned,My black one was 33lbs but was fun to ride,Was overkill on a lot of stuff,but you can make trails more playfull with it,using rocks as kickers etc.
I think the latest AM was within 100g of the old Fr,so very close.AM uses a longer travel shock.

Nicolaisam what was the fr like to ride????
Posted 13 hours ago # Report-Post

The Fr is an awesome bike,Great all rounder,Can ride everything and everywhere on it.
Have done Uplift days at Cwmcarn on it,Did 10 trips to Gawton on it aswell.I havent ridden an AM but was told they are very similar.
Only reason i sold them was i didnt have time to use it too its full potential,so brought an AC

My Ac.

My 1st Fr

My 2nd Fr

My Ion-st

Only have the AC now

Have had 2 Nicolai Fr’s and Ion st and now have an AC.
Have my Ac built as a not shy trail bike,Bos Devilles(140mm) up front and a CCDB coil shock.I9 wheels,X0,XX groupset.

Stunning to ride,No flex and no problems,without doubt the best bike i have ridden.
I honestly dont think you can go weong with a Nicolai.Colours are the worst bit.
Bring on the Pinion gearbox…lol
Could be something Nicolai new happening soon,once i get enough money saved.

As above,Any Trek Dealer.

Maxxis beaver seemed to be ok

Did he sell it as someone sold hin the wrong size frame?

Sell lots in the shop i work in,No problems or returns.

Casette isnt looking that good,You can see that the the teeth are more pointed and the internal shape of the teeth is getting elongated

I brought mine through the shop i work in,And its an Amazing tyre,Love it,would reccomend to anyone whos frame it fits

Outer ring looks very worn in that picture.Teeth look pointed.
How worn was the chain when you changed it,if it was very worn,you would have needed to replace, chain,casette and chain rings

62mm across the widest nobbles

Cannondale Synapse Tiagra or 105 or a Caad 8 depending what type of comfort level/riding you do

Take up Golf.lol

Poppers – amusing for 10 seconds till the headache kicks in

Yep,will agree with that.

Awful stuff

Was Nobby nics until i fitted Hans Dampfs,amazing tyre

As above,Any Trek dealer

Trek Wahoo disk

hated mud-x.casing is made of tissue paper

I use Nobby nics all year,before that used Maxxix Ignitors.

Yoshimi- No i let the forks go to there natural position.

the slack dosent matter,makes no difference as long a the hub is tight.when i do the leg clamp up it stops the leg from moveing.

The axle should clamp all of the hub towards the disk mount side of the fork.

The idea of the other leg being free floating is so it dosent load the bushings sideways.My Bos forks do exactly the same.

The axle should clamp all the hub and spacers towards the disc side leg.I had a bike that used hope hubs and you needed to tighten the axle very tight to remove the play.

email Turner bikes direct if you have no luck,They were very helpful when i spoke to them about one of my frames a few years ago.

I have a Ti spring for an Avy in the garage,Think its a 600×2.25

Stendec replaced an adjuster on my CCDB after it got hit by a rock that was spat off my mates wheel.

was a good price and has been working ever since.

Craig at Avalanche in the states is excellent.i sent mine back to him.

Only Stendec or send it back to Avalanche in the USA

My next bike will be a 650b MTB

Bos thread over at Pinkbike shows lots of people having all sorts of issue with them.

Got a link to that please??

Has the shock been custom valved,theres sometimes a noise as the damping changes from compression to rebound.

Spin-Its quite easy for the shop to do,not sure what there problem is.

I ordered something for a customer late thursday afternoon,arrived today from Mavic.

I have had my Devilles for a year and 5 months.

Mine are the 140mm trc model.

I run mine with the TRC on most of the time,i only use the full travel setting when needed.

As the fork runs high in its travel,most of the XC/Trails i ride dont require 140mm of travel.

An excellent fork,Buttery smooth and rides very well.

Speak to your local bike shop,they can order from Mavic uk

Is the front mech hitting the frame under full compression.

Thats what you need then.lol

few places seem out of stock
