1 x 11 groupsets :roll:

I was there last week and used 2.35 UST high rollers so you will be fine Mark. If your flying, give me a bell and i’ll lend you a bike bag :-)

Think i’ll pop across and join you all :D See you at 7(at the) bells

“I predict a riot, i…….. :lol: Are Elfins sawvin mates still at it??

Used Skiidy Gonzales and came back last night :D Great Guys and girls! Transfer was Euro 75 return. Bargain. PS the Pick up is from departures door 4 at Geneva Airport which is upstairs.

Looks brilliant! i’m going on saturday for the first time and can’t wait to get there :D

If you’ve got a morning to spare, then i would highly recommend stopping at Garmisch Partenkirchen and taking a trip up to the top of the Zugspitze on the cable car. Fantastic views and sledging on big inner tubes available at the top, even at the height of summer, for the adventurous. A really nice part of the world.

@Mr smith, if i knew everything i wouldn’t bother posting on STW. Thank you of informing me that all Apple products are Multi voltage, i didn’t know.

Well, apart from the fact you can’t pop it back to the store if it goes wrong, it will also charge at 110V so you would need to have an inverter/transformer to charge it in the UK. i think it’s not worth the hassle IMO.

Take an angle grinder to it. That will stop the creak….. :lol:

Yikes! i’ve recently bought a 5.5 Madone as my dream bike but the price for that E.Merckx is unbelievable.

I’ve been running them for a while tubeless including 4 laps at the 10 @KT lately. great grip, much better than i expected. I’m taking them to Morzine next week and am confident that i will pass a few Storm troopers :lol: But red trimmings are proper Jey aren’t they! oh, did i mention i was going to morzine :lol:

I’m going next Friday :D
Hopefully it will have stopped raining by then 8)

Why does it look like it was welded together by a five year old?? The finish of the welding is very poor.

You obviously need to spend lots of money on a new carbon bike and :wink: then upgrade the wheels straight away.

I’ll be there again! What tyres?? I’m bringing the Racing ralphs, the nobby nics and the trailrakers just in case it ends up like last year again. I’m the slow one riding with the Manx mountain bike club lads. :D

And the moral of the story is “if you want a decent warranty, buy a Trek!” :D

There’s a site called Tickets for troops.org.uk that does some excellent deals for serving HM forces personnel. Were not quite up there with the Yanks, but it’s a good start.

I have recently built a Kinesis Maxlight pro xc3 as a 3*9 with reasonably priced XTR group set from Merlin. The 9 speed prices are still fluctuating but there is good buys to be had if you look around. 9 speed should get cheaper as the next big thing come August 1st will no doubt be 2 x 11 Or 1×11 for those with cash to burn. X27 is always going to be better than x20 or x22 isn’t it???

Made three orders with Wiggle last week and they all arrived the next day. Well done Wiggle
:-)

Hope Guy has a good run in the Senior tomorrow. he deserves a good result. Stevio, Greetings! T.Cain is visiting tomorrow and we’re off over Cutgate in the afternoon. Talk soon bro.

nearly missed this! just back from my annual charity bike ride,(Geneva to Monaco this year) and the legs are feeling strong after all those alpine hills! See you all there. PS. Sambob, getting a lift from WB is the height of idleness. on your bike young man! :D

A chain saw
:D

Gore free ride are really good and hard wearing. I’ve had a set for 3 years and they’re still going strong. £34.99 a pair but worth it in the long run.

I’ve got the TI leather spoon on all three of my bikes. The oldest is 3 years + and still going strong with the occasional polish. Great saddle IMO.

The new Candy 3’s have a 5 year warranty and are superb. give them a try.

A letter arrived from the Halifax today and i’ve received £2795.00 as compensation for something they forgot to tell me about the SVR when i took my Mortgage out! I can feel another new bike coming on! Top day.

Use a 4″ angle grinder with a specific cutting blade (they’re much thinner than a normal grinding blade)so that you don’t damage the chain.

“Force field” body armour is really good and comfortable to wear. i have a full set and it is available in women specific sizes. On the down side it is quite expensive!

I’d have settled for a Jelly baby Chris!

I rode up WLT yesterday afternoon while you were all hard at work and stuck to the Limestone. i fell off twice on the way up but it was great fun. can i have a medal please :D

I had it recently with my 09′ model. A quick trip to Mojo and £95.00 fixed it :cry:

GRRRRrrrrrr! Bloody tinternet! :D

£62.99

+1 for the Charge spoon. Have them on both MTBs and the road bike. The leather finish model is very hard wearing and still going strong after 2 years with the occasional polish.

I’ve just removed IE9 and re-instated IE8. 9 has made my Sony laptop very slow at loading pages for some reason.

You need a Heim 3. I’ve had one fitted to my Fuel ex for over a year now. Not sure if they still make them or not though. Got mine from
Wiggle.

Yikes! scarey 8O

Gear Fail :lol:

Merlin are selling XT for £66.95 a set at the moment or the shifters & front mech and rear derailluer for £139.95. :D But you know you want XTR really!
