    Then I also mentioned that I will share my experience on different MTB-forums.

    From working for a different large online cycle retailer, I can assure you that has no bearing on how the case was handled.

    I can confirm they are silver inserts on my brakes. Decided I might as well just check.

    So looks like if it states “high power brake hose” its BH90.

    Cheers all!

    Went today, trails are in ok condition to be fair.

    Slightly spoiled by my mech hanger snapping within the first mile. Bodged singlespeed lasted though!

    Ideally I would like to have the inserts ready to go when shortening the hoses to (hopefully) minimise any bleeding needed.

    But thanks for stating the bleedin’ obvious 😀

    It states “high power brake hose” on the outside if that makes a difference.

    That would depend on the frame I would use. by “racier” I mean not the length of a boat.

    Something like a Surly cross check or Straggler would be the thinking, rather than a Long haul trucker. Kind of a do it all.

    Jack of all, master of none.

    There are a few ways, something like this would be ok in my books.

    Got mine from Ribble today, oem with no packaging but fitted the rear and it feels spot on.

    What’s the best way to shorten the hoses and avoid having to bleed them?

    Had it since it was released, its fine for me 🙂

    Stumpy_M4, is it sad I recognise that as Aberystwyth? I miss that place 🙁

    Was down there at the start of the month, just in time for the storm/tides. It was exciting but heart breaking to see peoples houses destroyed in Torcross.

    You seen the state of the Line after last week?

    Don’t be silly. That’s a baby robin, mate.

    I apologise, my mistake. Both ruthless hunters though.

    Surly Straggler looks spot on for pretty much everything I reckon. I want one.

    Spotted that, Inglourious Basterds on 4 at 10 too. Spoilt for choice.

    No Uncle Joe in that list at the bottom. I is disappoint.

    I used that photo in my dissertation CFH, emailed Charlie Kelly for permission and got a reply from Joe Breeze himself.

    I felt a little star-struck.

    Yeah, because his current chosen “career” is sure to look after him far better than an education.

    Erm.

    Depends on how much money he is making and how clever he is with it! Looking at his facebook page and the places he has travelled I reckon someone is “sponsoring” him. Possibly GoPro by the tags in his photos.

    I’m more impressed he got 2nd at Strathpuffer than I was with this weeks one.

    Agreed! Still enjoyed the programme though.

    Yeah ok, I posted that before the school refuser bit.

    But then what is normal?

    I guess this isn’t too dissimilar to those wing suit proximity fliers, I think I’d rather climb a crane!

    Seems like a fairly normal lad to be fair, just enjoys climbing stuff.

    Well this has been no help at all.

    Whilst I agree on dressing to the left, I tend to lean my bike against the wall on the left, so the pannier gets in the way.

    Oily chain muck is not an issue as it is SS and has a chain guard (so I don’t get my turn ups caught 😉 ) and on the right will make the bike seem wider to cars. Even if it doesn’t have a light/reflectives on it.

    Trivial things become such a big decision when unemployed….

    I suspect you will only be getting positive feedback about this Cy, top work.

    Have done it many times in deepest, darkest west Wales. It’s always exciting coming down the last time to see if the gate has been locked behind us 😀

    Brilliant idea though, swapping drivers every run means everyone’s happy and petrol costs split between all mean it is fairly cheap.

    That’s not the OP’s problem.

    Also true, but if the manufacturers do not class it as a warranty issue, why should the shop?

    Im not saying your issue isnt a warranty one btw Widge. Just arguing really.

    PJ266

    Has to be sent back to the manufacturer for confirmation it is covered by warranty Im afraid. Otherwise the shop may not be credited for the replacement helmet.

    Its not always bad weather up there 😀 No wind, sunshine, blue skies. Happy days.

    Can’t see how it would be different to saying it’s okay for someone who doesn’t interact with the rest of humanity to watch child abuse images

    Wow…

    Maybe because there isn’t really anything that morally wrong with having a smoke.

    There is quite a big difference I reckon. Or at least I hope there is ❗
