Game on I did a knotties halloween night ride a few yews ago

Twas brill

That Ribble does look nice and I too would be interested just need another job first 😕

Yes gear cables and outers work for me

130 Ti 1" stem on my 1995 S/works steel rigid bike, with narrow bars and bar ends just how I used to race on it

Looks ace fast as fug but hurts like hell off road and handles shite ( barge like)

long stem and narrow bars = bad idea

but it is retrotastic 🙄

I cannot, for the life of me, think of a more powerful, all round, resource than STW. Nothing comes close.
It's a blimmin' amazing place, really, in case you didn't realise.
Don't abuse it, you'd miss it like hell if it went……

I totally agree I have met loads of good folk off hear

ah well that broke the tedium of a job application form

buggerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr 😥

I have a set of SC32's on my full susser

and a set of rev's on my s/s

of the 2 I prefer the mav's because they are easily home servicable
As for riding with sorry I cannot tell the differance both work well

permission to rip the piss please 😉

no griping here I am doing something about it

If the people of this country were likde the sort of folk you get on a STW ride this country would be great and full of decient folk

Alas

speeding problem solved for me, lost my Honda Accord and replaced it with a oil burning Picasso

I have serviced my rev's by following the servicing manual on the Rockshox website

as long as you are happy wielding spanners you will be ok it is a easy job

forks are easy rear shocks are a differant story because they have to be charged with nitrogen

If I am not mistaken there are a few Kona Project 2 1" forks still floating about and they do have a long steerer which can be cut to suit ahead stems will clamp ok onto threaded steerers

well turk me sideways

no worthy comment

I am surprised

proteus

here is your cue

yep snugpack but the realy light weight bags are supposed to be ok down to about 5 degrees

not mine though

GIT 😥

?

you realy are a git

here I am aching like hell and you say "such little effort"

salad x

ok so it may be there job but they are ill equipped to carry it out eg snatch landrovers

If this was in british industry H & S would have a field day, do you realise that on alot of building sites ( which I worked on) I was not allowed to use a step ladder.

yet despite the lies from MP's they are woefully badly equippped

I am ex forces and Afganistan was not what I joined up for protecting this country yes but that is best done at our borders

How the hell can we call us world police when the police in this country have no go areas in most citys

yet anothere superb day out thanks one and all stw rides are the mutts nuts 😀

The courgetty muffins were a nice surprise at the end ta mrs pp

note to self must get alot fitter and practice my handleing er "skills" because they are er somewhat lacking (ok not blooody there if the truth be known) 😳 and I am abit sore at the mo

Anna I heard you were comming so I brought the bangers as promised guess what I have for tea

do you have no respect for you entrails. DOOOOOOOOOOOnner 🙄

There must be thousands of those lights out there might be a market for upgrade kits .mmmmmmm

yes there will be shed loads and I will happily send you my 2 cans for a fettle, shame to waste the batterys (13.2v ) and cans

or do a light set up which works off the lumi battery's there is a good sale plug for you

ah so it looks like I need a new blade then it has been used rathere alot and it is about 20 years old

sorry 😳

please tell more are they a single output or variable?

I have the bastid to which would be great on my bonce with 2 of these babies on the bars

no believe it or not the alloy used for steerers is too hard

😀 😀

ya for sunday

trout talk some more please

I have a lumi battery and cans to use sometime

Sat day with my wife 😀

sun stw mendips ride 😀

I look forward to both

to quote my lasses old pa in the 1970's

we will become a nation of shopkeepers with no industry

wise old bugger shame I never met him

yep that cromag in ralphies is nice

I realy like the simple and I am most probably getting a 456 and selling the full susser

option 3 for me

Interesting. Would this be safe with an old fashioned 1950s fuseboard?
I'll be using a small compressor (150 Watt) some standard lighting and a PC.

Now this does get my goat 1950's fuseboard and I bet you use disc brakes on your bike

There is a lot of priority issues here

You cannot see electricity and it can HURT to say the least, hence the wiring regs and the building control, have you not heard of health and safty?????

I have tested a houses where a toddler was killed by a dangerous installation the day before the worst job I have ever done. For what saving a few pounds

sorry but I do feel strongly on this subject

Jimbo has a shed full of toys you know

ok so why are the locals on the Q's going bach to or are now using hardtails????

BTW I have just spent 3hrs replacing all 8 of my rear end bearings sorry i am going back to a hard tail to.

the thing is each year the manifacturers release the best ever suspension system does that mean that last years effort was shit? just a thought

450mm is the depth the cable has to be laid on sand with sand over it and cable "warning " tape above it.

as you are aware the job should be reported to building control.

If you do the lay cable yourself I would be more than happy to do the job (leccies hate digging) as would most othere's, but they would insist on doing the job in the shed etc especially when work is scarce at the moment

hope this helps

nice piccy's as per usual mr K

Last chance for the full sus on sunday I am replacing all the pivot bearings all 8 are bugggered

but does the reduction of travel reduce the length of your fork, or is the fork the same length ???

oops sorry it's not PMS it should be TNS

oops sorry that was the carbon xt19 at 22 1/2lbs not Dibbs's Ti

Can I borrow your scales cos mine over read big time
to be fair you will have a light bike but not that light for example
Dibbs's Ti 19 s/s is 22 1/2lbs at the lbs
my simple is 23 1/2lbs on my baggage scales
