hAMMOCK NICE WORK!

:lol:

Aha!
This is good constructed trails, I know where the above linked bit of the trail is and yes it is tricky and yes the hole has THANKFULLY gone! :)
exactly the bit I was talking about, its got a bit of everything in on such a short section. Must practice more!!

HARD AND HARD AND HARD
At least there is almost a nice surface now- last year was grass and mud and pulling brakes had no effect as you just slid then crashed :)

Agh a Froggy does sound nice idea! CCDB on way now and its too late to cancel!- Guess I will run that and see- but I always like a new bike :)

ctracking price for the mirra co- my daughter wants another street bmx for her b/day- think I just found it! :)

She had a hoffman rhythm before but that was 18" wheel- still great bike though
She now races on an Intense! wee bugger :)

Artist I remember you guys :) think we met on your 2nd run? Nice photo!
We were
Yeti HT
Haro HT
Lapierre Spicy
Giant Reign
Diane- give it a shot – its fine- if you do have a mechanical or anything else nobody can miss you as its a 1 line track! :)

SINGLESPEED were you there with guy on Froggy?
Just wondered how the Froggy got on- still fancy one even though I have ordered the CCDB for my Spicy.
Will it be worth a frame change??????

it was a glorious day and it wasnt that busy and there were areas where you can pass others of the board walk

we were on 2 hardtails and 2 6" sussers
1 HT got down with only 1 puncture
1 Ht got down with no punctures but 4 crashes and a different speed to first HT!
1 full susser got down no probs
1 full susser had 4 falls and a differeing speed again!

Its definately not a Red XC- its tougher in my opinion
We rode Laggan Red and then came to Fort Bill for another Red- we didnt realise it was a Red DH- we thought that Nevis had made the Red to get revenue and numbers up- thinking a Spooky Wood style track was in place!
Its fun but not something I would do run after run on
tyre pressure will be critical I would suggest if your not on DH casing tyres

Fit or Mirra Co are lighter bikes aimed at a younger less muscley age.
Should make it easier for the rider to throw about a bit.
Still bomber strong just better set for a younger kid

helicoil I hope- just need to finmd someone near Glasgow that will have something for such a small thread

:lol:
sounds ideal training!

sorry brain fade – now see diagram!

diagram- where?

anyone got a photo of their 2×2 or broom set ups?
Random I know but…

Formuala The Ones- great brakes!
Work well :)

Cookea- yep I am a BRAKER – 1 finger mind-but jeez tryinh to train myself to get off the bleading brakes is tricky! Inners last night and I know I am doing it everywhere!
Speshpaul- I think I can picture what you mean?

brick stick?

i thought they were for shoulders and not forearms?

So mo magic trick then:(
I will need to look at my controls position. Think my brake levers are set too far up.
I used to climb as well!

MMM – NEVER LOOKED
normal train of thought is HALO=HEAVY

Meant to say shock upgrade was £390 quid!
Would 1k be too much or reasonable for the frame sale?

whos_daddy – perfect THANKS!

oh dissapointing :)

Clubber – that was my impression- I remember them on my motorbike and they did firm up the lever but MTB not su sure it would make a difference

nice one!

sp41?

Freeflow Bikes have the tools If I remember right!
Though it wont fit my spicy because of internal BB

MMMM thansk for that- 36s certainly would be nice!!

mk1fan.???

i have an e13 drs on my spicy. never had an issue. lbs fitted it but they did not mention any issues. i use the bike on xc and dh and the drs is fine

FOX Antifreeze are my choice currently. The options of running both liner and outer first thing till you get warmed up and then remove liner for rest of day.
Good feel even with both on- my best gloves so far.

sorry tyres were schwalbe ice spiker with puncture protection
these

and the shop in stirling is MUCH cheaper

It was stewart wilson or something in Stirling. Brampton Street If I remember. Was there on day out on hold and went to tiso as I thought they had an alpine bikes upsairs, staff sent me 5 mins walk along the road to the stewart wilson shop, picked up everything I needed including the tyres. I used them for 3/4 xc rides in aberfoyle area in the snow and ice and they were ace. I have just came in from a ride tonight and the rear has gone flat! I was riding on the pavements round town, didnt hit anything and didnt notice anything that would have punctured them. There was another post about problems with schwalbe winter tyres – I hope I havent suffered the same fate as others have had! I will insopect them tomorrow after work.

I got my schwalbes 26" last week from stewart wilson cycles in stirling – 4 rides old now and still all OK

brilliant! many thanks!!

yep i was doing wrong screw! thanks!

The Ones!!!
Been running them for 2/3 years now and no issues!
I want them on all my bikes but $$$$$$$$$

Fox antifreeze- bought them last week. There are 2 gloves – 1 liner and then the outer. I wore both till I was up to temp and then removed the liner and still had good feel without the liner. I like em!
