Rockape, I have a medium Rune and it wouldn’t fit a 6 ft bloke.

Demoed nothing

Bought Banshee Rune.

Awesome bike, that does everything, you have to work it but by god it’s fun.

When I did my flow ex I used superstar 29mm tape instead of the 25mm supplied Stans tape. the internal bead width is 25.6mm on the flow ex so just make sure the tape is right. The quality of the superstar tape is no where near that of the Stans but it still worked.

I may be up for the 20th too depending on timings.

That’s what I have been told as well which is a shame as the bridleways are amazing.

One can of Stella is equal to 2.2 UK units, the legal limit is 2 units, it even says this on the can.

Your attitude stinks, if you going for a drink then don’t drive, i have a 70 mile round trip everyday for work but I wont have a “swift” one after work, I don’t even drink during the week.

One can of Stella would put you over the drink drive limit and your not telling me he has decided to have his first can as he is driving home?

I hate drink drivers, there is no reason whatsoever to drive after having a drink.

😀 @ Hora, you seen the price of the bloody POC stuff.

YT Wicker Pro 650b?

great bike, brill Spec, £2500

just to settle an argument, the forestry work has finished and this is STW not gardeners weekly who cares what is up with the trees.

get the altitude but spec it with bits you want.

Luca, mines 33 lb in 650b flavour.

It did look very enduro

Loving mine, I cant ride mine like that either but I have smashed every single downhill PB, some as far back as 2011. What I have found is that you have to really work it to get the best out of it but it then just flies over rocks or anything that’s in front, it really is amazing. The CCDB Air is fantastic and is soooo much better than the RP23 I had on my other bike, the 2014 Fox 34’s are pretty damn good as well. It’s getting raced for the first time at Grizedale so I’ll see how I go there.

Probably right Alex but I have that bike in that colour 😀

Be aware there is a race on this Sunday so lots of the trails may be closed.

The north face is pish.

I got mine on the bike, I said I don’t fancy the mountain kings so Rob swapped them.

I run the 27.5 version tubeless and they are great, although they seem a bit fragile when I ran tubes in them.

Have another of mine 🙂 just to make the wait worse 🙂

Yeah they do stock them. You looking at a haven bar then?

Hahahaha, I put trail kings on mine and they are great, what bars did you want?

Jimmy, your bike is ready, looks good 🙂

It will be like riding at Glentress 😀

To be fair I’ve never ridden the dyfi but all accounts its a brilliant laugh and always sells out.

I got mine from UBERBIKE.

Doesn’t the laws of physics prove at least two of them are true?

Google box, bit late now though.

OP has a good point, I stopped subscribing as I was fed up of all the dream trips abroad and high end boutique equipment.

I mean direct mount bottle openers!!!!!

I’m a fatty and set both front and rear at 30psi on the track pump, runs brilliant, loads of grip and no issues…… Yet.

Northwind, I smacked myself in the forehead with a flow ex 🙂

Had similar on my rear, I put 2 x 2 Oz bottles in, shook it hard and then laid it flat for 10 minutes each side.

Excellent.

I’m there, ridden grizedale loads and really looking forward to it.

Extra practice is always good 🙂

Somebody on MTBR had one and rated it, me I’ll stick with the CCDB AIR

I don’t think the enduros would be any better than Flow ex but I think a pair is cheaper.

They aren’t wide just tall

Are the hope enduro rims really any better than Stan flow ex rims? They have a smaller internal diameter for starters.

I’ve only used Flow Ex so not sure?

I have the 650b 2.2 trail kings and don’t rate them at all, there is plenty of grip if ran tubeless but with tubes they pinch punch far to easy and you then end up running then hard and losing grip.
Also the tyre is very soft and gets punctured easier than other tyres I’ve used.

I’m at round 2 and I might do round 5

I think I said it was about 4 ft but into a transistion.
