    mrnutt – you talks sense,I won’t lie to you…. :D Trance is bloody brilliant & I only have the 3 which has a pretty basic Tora Solo Air fork.This will be the first thing I change when cash allows.Rest of kit solid & will only need replacing & upgrading when it wears out.Grips were pants,but we all change grips dont we.

    Are they 302 solo air forks ? – if so the cap for the valve is on the left hand fork leg top.Sorry if this sounds insulting,I dont mean it to be,its just it took me a couple of mins to find mine,as on rebas etc the valve is on the bottom.If they are diving through the travel & they are air forks then they just need pumping up.Again,sorry if you have already tried these things.

    Fkn scum – may they break their legs trying to ride them.Hope they come back home safe,or at least are replaced for you with the minimum of hassle.

    sharkbait – thats the one mate.We started from just outside Dol,gentle bimble along the Mawdacch trail ,then crossed the estuary & up into them thar hills.It was fkn brilliant,the rocky ,technical descents kicked the backside of any trailcentre I have been to.Lots of moto x bods up there though,so the trail was a little cut up & with it being frozen,made for interesting riding in places.Went over the bars due to said ruts !!! We were out for about 5 hrs I think,including stops for grub,shelter from the wind & 3 flats !!! Enjoy ! Some other great routes on that site aswell – doing the one round the Berwyns in a couple of weeks.

    Try calling Stourport Specialist Cycles,Nr Kidderminster.I ordered a Pitch Pro in Large 3 weeks ago but cancelled it.They may have it in the shop.Otherwise,as the others said,they are getting like rocking horse shizzle.

    Auctions have picked up slightly since the new year.That said,there are some right bargains to be had.Our vehicles coming back off fleet are fetching 15-25% less than we had the residual value set at.Fill your boots if you have the readies,like smee says.

    I have driven both the hatch 1.9 105 & the estate 1.9 105bhp – both are fine,plenty powerful even when loaded up with kit.Found the engine in the Skoda to be much better than in equivalent VW’s & Audis.Do you a good deal on one if you want to contract hire one for cheapness !!!! :D

    @james – you’re right mate….it was a killer actually ! I would like to go back & do it again in the summer,without the headwinds & the frozen moto x ruts that threw me over the bars & off down the side of the mountain..that’s the new bike christened then !!!! :lol:

    shinsplints

    yep sofatester methinks it is…was a tad cold up there yesterday & the headwinds were something we could have done without,but,the riding,needless to say,kicked the arse of all the trail centres I’ve been to…this was God’s trail centre !! :D

    I did have some of the Stroker Rydes just before Xmas & I really liked them,nice adjustable levers & super powerful.Imagine the Trails would be better as they are the next ones up in the range.

    Teacher,Lecturer,Cad Designer,Plasterer,Farmer,Builders,Paramedic,Sales Rep,Engineer – no one gives a fk about what you are riding as long as theres some banter to be had.Most of the lads are just glad to be out of the house !

    @ bonesetter…no,no restrictions at all.The leg gripper is tight enough for them to stay in place but not tight enough to be restrictive,you know what I mean.Agree with mboy,they are super toasty.

    I have an 08 Trance 3 that I picked up for a bargain tastic price.3 Rides in,today 30 miles of the Pont Scethin loop round Barmouth,I **** love it.As bigboy xc says,awesome frame & hardly any pedal bob from the maestro suspension.Mine has a fox float shock with no lockout but its fine,climbs well & descends like a demon.That said,went over the bars on mine today but that was me not the bike.Brilliant bike & ripe for future upgrades.Get one,you wont regret it.BTW I am 6ft 2 & 13 stone so v similar to you,I ride the large & with a shorter stem,is perfect.

    Prefer the blue of the Comp to the brown Pro tbh.Great bike for the cash aswell,no 2 ways about it.That said I had a Pro on order 2 weeks ago but cancelled it after a great deal came up on a Trance – still got pangs for a Pitch though..
