    I was spinning out in top gear thats all I remember (singing Jilted John to myself)and according to Knottie I highsided and the bike stopped I went about 6ft in the air then down into the ditch head first, broke my Hex helmet and er knocked myself sillier

    OF My neck and shoulder is still not good and alas no visable wounds to make a war story of 🙄

    and I now NEED TO GET OUT

    I am now a bit concerned because the wife bought me a HD helmet cam for xmas, but she wants Knottie to wear / use it, muttering something about insurance 😕

    Shane if you could that would be ace

    Alcoholics are just as bad as any other addicts IMO and I think saladdodger would agree.

    Yes I would

    my step sons dad was a alcoholic and he has not realy seen him since the age of 4 and it has affected him to this day with unplesant memories

    He is now 18 btw

    The thing that gets me is after reading all this is that it is a known fact that drugs DO screw up peoples lives and not just the folk taking them.

    We are supposed to be an "educated" society and everyone has been through the education system (remember it is law) and a legal system that has outlawed drugs

    Is the words NO THANK YOU (to drugs) that hard to use, please explaine

    No I am not whiter than white I have been absolutly clattered (pissed) on many occasion, and stepped over the line on many occasion but never have my actions inflicted misery on othere people

    WI ENO. end of thread

    I will be dammed for eternity for this but I have 2 WI freewheels and yes they are better than the Shimano freewheels but I still go through bearings too quickly for my liking.

    I an tempted to get a hope s/s hub but at the same time the SuperStar s/s is tempting at half the price

    spoke to Niel and he will supply hub, XC717 rim and spokes for a self build ( which I asked for) for £115

    One of the lads ( mrT I think) on this site has one and is well pleased

    the over pressurisation valve should bleed off excess pressure

    you could bleed off the excess via the radiator bleed screws

    My preference would be vertical dropouts with an EBB. Find track ends a bit of a PITA to take wheel out for punctures or to put bike in car

    I agree 100% the track ends are a pita on my simple, the EBB on my old inbred was superb

    I had a trance but tbh I felt like it was always holding me back as did my old sub5

    Sold the trance and now I am a happy bunny with a poverty 456

    No i do not miss the soft back end because when it is rough I stood up anyway

    Problem is the 456 makes me decend too quickly hence my big stack on the Q's saturday

    I now use a Rancillo Rocky and it works a beaut, I did not get a doser model I just grind what I use second time round right decision
