Yep that will do the trick, they were not available when I got the torches, so change of plan maybe X2 P7 torches on the bars and the bike light on me bonce.

They used to do group rides on tuesdays

Swindon though. Did anyone ever move there out of choice?

You have a point there I moved to swindon when I was posted to RAF Lyneham, hated the place

But after a wifectomy I escaped took 20 years though 😳 yep dumb arse

As a contract electrician I hammmer the hell out of my tools and I use Ebaurer 18v drills which I get about 8 months use before they are buggered which sounds bad but I am happy. the reason I am happy is because they are used everyday they get one hell of a lot of use and Screwfix replace them on the spot with the 2 year warrentee.
So for £80 I get over 2 years use from my drills BARGAIN compared to dewalt etc

I was looing at a small one myself

bloody hell Knottie even I can do the log in one piece

But water is a differant subject 😕

yes the scenary is nice soft and fluffy but alas

The ride I did enjoy when I lived there was from Barbury Castle to Cherhill via Avebury, it was always a nice run and I lived in Wroughton then so I could ride from my front door.

what lenghts are the cables, what rating are the lamps 20 / 35 / 50watts

sorry but I think low voltage lighting is not the best

Marlborough downs ride Mmmmmmmmmmmm Barbury castle loop etc sorry rich but do not waste your time get back to the Q’s ( please note I speak with 15 years of experiance riding there)

as TJ said

I had a sticky piston issue easily soreted

on mine I removed the pads pumped the pistons out and soaked in a light lube and pushed them back in, this was repeated several times till both pistons moved the same ammount when the lever was pulled in. Cleaned off all traces of oil refitted the pads. purfect

though my ageing eyes/brain might not be as sensitive as yours saladdodger

Na yer daft bugger me eyes are alot tired nowadays, it was the strobe effect made the front wheel look liked it was stationry

still happpy though

bloody hell WHAT has happened to Crowcombe Gate car park 😮

Heard ppl complain about the orange warrenty before, but complaining because they wouldn’t deal with you as bought it 2nd hand is industry wide approach, so your comment seems a little harsh… care to expand?

OK if I had trashed the thing I would of took it on the chin but it was less than 2 years old and well looked after and there reaction was basically tough and I did when climbing FFS

But also I bought a P7 when they first came out ( about 1994) and had no end of issues with slippping seat posts to get a reply I do not know how to tighten a seat post clamp after I had 3 framsets replaced at that I told eorange to take the bike back and I had a refund from my lbs

Basically Shite customer service historically

I will give praise when its due eg the Focus I bought for the wife, even On One but Orange er sorry no

the wife has a zonwacydo? womans bike from Focus superb build but too small for me so I cannot say how it rides but she loves it

All the hoses and cables were cut to length ( rare ) superbly packed assembled and ridden in less than 5 minutes from unpacking

I could be tempted myself but I like steel hardtails

I ust tyraps nice and tight.

I will / maybe get a velcrow strap one day

I have the “green tint Bastid” and to be honest I prefer it to the MTE SSC P7.

The light from the tourch is white where as the Bastid is a slight green tint to it, the white light appears to make scenary very 2D (flat)but the Bastid gives more depth 3D

Give it a try I do prefer the “Bastid” but thats my opinion, you might not like it then look at the mods

easy option threaten the kids with the wrath of Sue 😉

DD have a listen to via con dios on you tube she puts your two fav’s to shame

Tanita Tickeram yep well good I will have another listen to her first album tomorrow not heard it for years (10+)
