What's wrong with a pair of panniers or a conventional bar bag?

Too conventional?

nothing!

maybe bike bags keep the cog in the center of the frame, rather than hanging the weight off the back/front.
for off road riding that gotta be a good thing?

cancel your order and go shop somewhere else.

"oooo ooooo"

looks pretty steep and it looks like you gotta squeeze between those two rocks up the top.

i'd have a go, don't know if i'd still be on the bike at the bottom :cry:

my first was a heckler in 1997, but i have no pics
this was my second, turner rfx 98/99

tracknicko +1

hang it from a rotary line by the saddle.

to much rebound ?

don't no you sharki but glad your safe. now go say sorry to your mum. :mrgreen:

from the same fella, made me chuckle!

new heckler?

you all have until next thurs/fri, new bike should be here then.

pump, innertube, patch kit, tire levers, multi tool, powerlink, cable ties, small first aide kit, survival blanket, phone :oops:

i always ride on my own and never ride without a bag.

wtf happened? looks like the side of the rim has ripped off?
close up pic please..

Fox haters are fox wanters

Just because you can't afford a product no need to bash it !!

what? i've got more money than you so that makes me better? ffs :roll:

fwiw. i bought rev 150 over float 150 because they have a 20mm axle, are stiffer, and need a lot less maintenance. cost was never an issue as i can get both trade.

£110 for those Answer bars! for that I would get the Eastons

i prefer the feel of answer bars over easton. i don't think easton do 1/2 inch rise?

i tested the 5spot with a 140. i haven't tested the 150 rev yet. i've been waiting for my frame since jan, been told next week, but i'll believe it when i see it.

turner recommend a 130 to 160 fork.

any fork you mentioned would work ok. i think the spot has 69' ht angle with 140 fox, 68.5 with a 150 fox.

so down to personal preference.

i went for the rev 150.

just ordered these in 1/2 inch

thanks guys

thanks for 1/2 but 3 no thank you 8O

couldn't you of just taken the broken links out and rejoined your chain?

frame, post, qr, hs. £500

http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/anfield-balance-66ha-135-bb-33-lbs-ish

£150-£200 max, not worth insuring.

rode alp d'huez for a week on a borrowed brooklyn 24" jump bike with a 100mm fork.

i could barely walk to dinner/pub in the evening. good brakes and dh tyres are your friend.

back ends to long, bb is to high!

@grum

just looked at some footage from the avalanche in Kielder. looks fun! i'm guessing they use the chair lifts in europe, passports sorta thing?

but what is a bicycle enduro?
They're events where people dress up in race pajamas, body armour then ride very slowly between sections of downhill.
When they get to the downhill bits they do there best to fool themself that they're a top MXer.

sorry, still don't get it. any examples?

i get that enduro is the same as all mountain riding. ragging mid travel bikes down hill with the ability to ride up (just riding to most) but how doe's a race work?

sorry, i know what a moto enduro is, but what is a bicycle enduro?

what is an enduro? :oops:

bike is broken, gonna spend my day stripping it down to sell. :(
new bike will hopefully be here next week :D

one legged al, airing at the spot. al would find this thread funny as….

als leg is pretty cool carbon,ti and stainless with an adjustable air chamber.

@mark

nice….

if your just going for a pootle around then a normal helmet will be fine. if your going to push yourself (it's hard not to) then a full face.

stoner i like the swiss way.

i have owned so called dangerous dogs and it's not the dogs that need controlling but the owners!

i have the 25+5, very happy so far. very comfortable evan when full. getting the bladder in is a bit of a pita but doesn't move around once in.

new trail

turner dw 5spot

it went to the painter 5 days ago. hopefully be here in 2 weeks . i have everything except the fork and the wheels , which should be here next week.
