    I must admit it would be an alternative for longer rides but I could just mtfu I suppose!

    Yes the superfly was Jacks at swinnos and he said they had a large demo- may have a play

    Always :lol:-had a quick spin on a superfly carbon job by the other day and it’s got me thinking it would be a good alternative to a rigid ss

    Thanks for that-I think you’ve come up with useful input like that before

    If you google it’s pretty much all American experience so, pardon me but I thought I would ask for a uk view

    Why not get a scandal from on one and build up with a mix of new and second hand bits?

    Has a ti456- didnt rock my boat
    Now have a lynskey pro29er and its great- built up to about 20lbs in ss rigid mode and does feel a bit more compliant than the scandal 29er I also have

    Mrs Pop loves hers – so much I very rarely get to have a go!
    Ours is a 10k mile second hand one and all is well at the moment – 3 months in so far- she had a 500 pop before for 3 years and that was pretty much trouble free- just not as much fun and I love the exhaust tone

    £300 at tmc will get you the upgrade power wise- with wheels, discs, shocks etc youre looking at around £2k – but no crate!!

    Alternatively go for the ultimate – gives 230bhp- a snip at £8k

    Just got a ‘normal’ abarth 500 and its great fun to drive- in the sport mode its fast enough to make the cd’s fly around- the essesse upgade is largely about handling upgrades as well as a few more bhp- not sure if its money well spent myself- comes in a really cool wooden crate though!

    you can get chip upgrades for alot less if its a power thing- tmc seem to have a good reputation

    slx every time- Ive had juicys and elixirs and wouldnt have them again- start off ok and then loads of hassle

    the slx brakes I have had just work- so much so just ordered some more – have a look on ebay all terrain are doing 665’s for £95- euro set up but apparently easy enough to change

    I agree with Nealy on relentless- it is a stonking book but you will read it in a weekend cus it is unputdownable.

    Harlan Coben as well does some good stuff.

    James Patterson (Alex Cross books not womens club)and Lee childs I would say- not heavy and move quite quickly
    I would go in the charity stores – pick them up for under £1 and its a good cause

    tazzy- you forgot to add the bit about chasing the gearie boys down first!

    Anyway I have a quite expensive single speed and often get overtaken (owned) by people on cheap geared bikes- does this even it all out 😳

    Got one on the rear and like it- comes up quite narrow but is very light. wouldnt be too keen if riding around lots of rocks though.

    Has a rider weight limit on the side of the tyre- cant remember what it is off the top of my head but its around 90kg from memory

    As Adam Ant said- ‘ridicule is nothing to be proud of’- snigger

    Must question them lights mate- surely a £50 magicshine lightweight unit would be a safer bet

    But you gotta try night riding its a blast

    had one and sold it as it failed to turn me into the riding god that everyone in stw land reckoned it would- it was ok but not sure it was any better than my wanga, duster, 456 that I have owned

    Now got a titanium 29er and that has also failed to turn me into a riding god as well- may have to get an orange 5 ( oh bum I ve had one of them too and preferred my trek ex8)

    perhaps its just me 😥
