    I ran summer tyres all winter. Lots of rubber still left. I can tell the huge difference in speed now its drying up though.

    All the bike, you’ve ridden a short travel bike for so long and you have got use to riding it like that. Now you’ve jumped on a bike with more travel,better angles and stuff for what your riding. Your using the skill from the shorter travel bike and transferring it to the longer travel bike making you faster.

    Do any of the people who are writing silly remarks ever owned a commencal or you just writing what you’v read online or had a mate of a mates one fail. What are your rides? I’v seen plenty of frames fail from various manufacturers including Giant, Orange, Santa cruz, Cube etc over the years. Are they all made from cheese?

    No, some are made from crackers.

    not if the disco slippers are relitavley comfortable you should be fine. You’ll probably annoy the other riders with your tap shoes though.

    and amazon are less likely to have some one steal your card details and spend lots of money with it.

    If the are not square taper, does that make me a planet killer?

    Yes as you will be eating through bearings every 35 and a half seconds.

    OK users of octalink can join the planet saving gang as that lasts for ever as well. Boooooooooooo to the non-renewable resource abusing enviromurderer’s

    Whoever decided that HT2 would ever be superior to the brilliant properly sealed internal bearing BB’s?

    I had never even heard off ticks until coming on this forum. Never had one either, saying that I’ve also never been bitten by a mosquito or similar. They dont like me!

    But I may invest in a removal tool anyway.

    Thinking though, if you wore tight Lycra wouldn’t they only be able to latch on to visible skin?

    Mtb for me. would like a road bike and a cx bike though…
    agree with post above about ignorance. Ive been out on rides on my mtb recently where the bits where im riding the road ive seen a few roadies, The majority say afternoon/morning etc, but some just look at you like your shit on there shoes, had the same last year in dalby from some mountain bikers too. Whats that about really?

    Its brilliant on fork seals and I like the chain lube too. Seems to last quite a while on the chain without picking up much shit.

    Just the thread I was looking for.
    Although my pressures have changed, 41 front 46 rear 10 stone rider.
    There only that high because the minimum on the front is 40psi and I kept hitting the rim when trying to ride up stairs, slowly.

    Now its better, merely Single Speed Singletrack 🙂 same as my twitter.
    Ok maybe it hasnt changed.

    Surely its just to make it look better, saying that if you jet washed your roof wouldn’t it damage the waterproofing felt underneath?

    There’s no point to any boy bands…except JLS.

    (I knew I’d get them in somehow)

    JLS suck, if it wasn’t for all the women who buy there songs because they like the people in the band there would be no JLS. Cos there completely rubbish.

    I found it pretty boring TBH. Not very flowy at all and not much going on, just loads of dull waffly bits… until all of a sudden !WALLOP! a silly technical and very artifical rock garden thing appears from nowhere, followed by more and more miles of dullness…

    that is the best explanation of Dalby that I’ve ever heard, or there’s like loads of flat uphill bits then a steep bit with some huge rocky berms at the bottom, gate 28 I think it is. Cant remember though

    that was rubbish. I could probably ride a my singlespeed hardtail down that faster. Orange 5 wins, yes. Only they were all running different tyres and bars etc all the accesorys were different so the test had too many variables.

    I bought the floor pump, a Gilet and the baselayer type thing.

    how come my tektro Io’s are bloody good then? i dont understand, so many people slate the tektro mechanicals. But mine are great. The IOx ones i have are pants, but there also with crap cables. Not tested properly really.

    R.lepecha

    Massive difference, My Tektro IO’s with Shimano Deore brake cables I think are less spongy than my mates recently bled Avid Juicy 3’s.

    Its because people arent willing to put in the effort to ride a bike properly, there all lazy and run double/triple ring 10 speed. So they can just sit and spin all day gaining no decent muscle or superhero status.

    that sounds about right.
