I run 125mm Mavs on mine and it works a treat I would not go longer but I wold go shorter

Knottie uses 100mm on his and he flies on the downs

I know of one guy with a Ti456 and he has swapped from a set of Long travel fox's to 100mm and prefers it

yer git ridin when other poor souls are working

and there is no photographic proof of bacon butties

Any gear inner and outer but stick a Middleburn cable oiler in the middle so you can flush out any crap that gets in

In my opinion the best dropouts I have seen for s/s use are on "dibbs" Whyte 19 and I would be more than happy with a Ti19

But alas I will keep the Simple for a good few years yet 😀

Holiday my arse 2 weeks in france and no chance / time to use my bike 😥

Kitchen is fitted though 😕

will give you a ring tomorrow

Problem is the Q's may sink if there is too big a turnout

I had a EBB on an old inbred bloody brilliant, now I have a Cotic Simple and track ends are a pain in the arse

More time to ride yer bike

Thats all I want

Look on the bright side in that it would pay more than the job seekers allowance

So I was right all the time 😕

I feel you pain I have just spent the day on a market store with Mrs SD selling soap

It went a bit too well and now have to make a load more 🙄

And I NEED to get out and ride 😥

Get it bought, by far the best frame I've ridden in over 10 years, and a bargain to boot

I have been riding for about 20 years and I agree with the above statement

I bought mine to replace a giant trance fed up with thee full sus and it was worth every penny the most enjoyable bike I have ever ridden it just does every thing it should and at a minimum cost, well it is unbelivable realy

auto glym screen cleaner works a beaut

ok so the screen does still mist up but clears realy quickly

sorry I cannot talk I am packing my stuff

I wish 🙄

so why watch it

I do not I just suffer it in the background

DUCK 😉

I used to work for a butchers called HH Collins in Broadway (worcs) and we used to cure our own bacon and it was fantastic. The factory has now gone and perhaps the shop which is still there may get some good stuff in.

Me I now cure my own bacon as well as smoke it and I aint too bad at it eithere

There are lots of good books out there try a guy called Paul Peacock

Easy reading and easy to follow

Mr T

Please let me know how you get on

Ta

Excuse my ignorance but would the cooling fins not be more efficiant in the front to back direction to go with the airflow over it

Good luck all the same

I have a two bikes one with SC32's and the othere with Revs

both good forks

igm

consider yourself trusted

We have had 7 ex battery hens in the last 12 months NEVER EVER AGAIN there are too many problems and in 12 months we are left with 1 poor soul (called scraggy because we did not think she would live for long and she was a real mess) the egg laying for us has been hit and miss with nothing for the last 2 months.

We will not get any more exbats, but once scraggy dies we will get 5 point of lay chickens, strange realy but the garden is now empty without chickens and I would never get less than 3.

Yes I guess they were a sort of usefull pets and you do get attached to them

mine does the job a beaut

but it is the person who builds a wheel not a jig remember, it takes me a age to build a wheel but they run for years without trueing

yes my old cars always seemed smoother and I did get better fuel consumption

anyone ?

Now this is why you should have your wiring tested on a regular basis the problem is a house is considered safe because your lights go on and off

IGM for your infomation
A RCD should not trip at half fault current 15mA
At 30 maA the RCD should trip in less than 0.2 seconds but I have tested hundreds of Rcds and most trip at less than 0.025 of a second.
On a ramp test as a rule a RCD trips at 20 – 23 milli amps

As for where does all these safe values come from, well alas it was not descovered by guess work or animal testing but it was done on real people back in the 1940's in various camps in eastern europe during the holocaust. Not nice to know eh

According to the regs you should have a value of at the most 200ohms (that would give a fault voltage of less than 50v )but there are so many variables I personally would not be happy if you had a value of more than 50 ohms cos I am a fussy shit and a neeedless to say fully qualified spark

Really?

Voltage is a constant in this scenario – let's say 240v, because we very rarely find 230v. It's current that kills and at 200 ohms resistance 1.2 amps will pass through under fault conditions. Approx 0.05 amps is enough to f*ck with your heart.

However your RCD should be 30ma (0.03 amps sensitivity), therefore will protect you from death if it's working correctly. TheArtistFormerlyKnownAsSTR – Member

You speak the truth 😳

In my defence I should of added that a TT instalation ( basically a system that need a earth spike) must be protected with a 30ma RCD to comply with the regulations so

If you have a 30ma fault current multiplied by 200ohms (ohms law is V=I x R)
you will be left with a potential fault touch voltage of 6 volts which is less than 50v fault voltage which is what I should of said

TBH I cannot be arsed to regester to log onto the SuperStar web site just to look at there products

So is the hub disc compatable??

Fruit to you

How about something on the downs?

Not the Marlborough downs I hope

I was taking the pizz you know

what about a Aliegh guided ride in Swindon area 😆

ok I will get my coat

If you are on overhead power lines the telegraph pole will have a red label at about 3m above ground saying PME, if it can be converted

but there is nowt wrong with a earth spike as long as you have a good earth

Quantocks are poo

I would not bother 😉

do something special

get her a set of Nontron knifes from france

Campag 9 speed works with a Shimano 9 speed cassette

I know cos I have done it yes the spacings are differant but it still works ( better shifting than with a campag cassette tbh)

Brits abroad

fugging embarrassing just spent 2 weeks in france the french were great but the brits as a rule, well I was ashamed

Where do you live ? I could do a external earth loop impedance test for you so you can realy know if you have a good earth, you can guess all you like but untill it is tested you will never know

Houns

recomend me a WSD HT bike for the wife then

Also try Jenna "barefoot and egar" she has been helped along by SOH

There is also Seth Lakeman but his songs are very much the same and once you have heard the first track you have heard them all

RD you amaze me "SOH" I am impressed we have seen them several times and we like em big time
There best albums are Country life and Witness

try Martyn Joesph

Good on ya TM as for me I started a new job yesterday on the cards which was a bit of a relief after 5 weeks on the rock and roll
