    So someone should have bought him a ticket so that no one should be offended or hurt?

    Next time the fare dodger thinks ‘why bother even buying a single fare, I’ll not bother at all as someone else will pay’

    The big guy was proportionate, the old ticket man was in no position to remove the fare dodger so the big man kindly offered to help, the fare dodger still refused so the big man removed him, the fare dodger still wiggled and squirmed so the bigger man had to remove the fare dodger a little more forcedly.

    just had word from Brodie that the Ti Holeshot may not actually have another production run, unless there is more demand 🙁

    so get your wallets out!

    ps, had a confirmation of a Ti 29er from Brodie come the spring, like this but in in Ti Brodie Khan

    Float 36 set to 120mm would be ideal on a sov.

    Depends on country of origin. As long as its not from China the duty should be 4.7% plus VAT and maybe handling.

    Hi Tony, I have asked Chumba to update me on the decals as I know you have waited a long while.

    The XCL is out of stock and has been kinda replaced by the EVO G2. If you can get one second hand they are a great frame, really under rated, very stiff and strong, uncomplicated and not too heavy.

    Chunky, I’m sure you are aware, but I deal with Chumba in the UK and like to think I look after all my customers to the best of my ability.

    How tall are you?

    Chumba HX1?

    That’s not the case unless you try and pull the wool and get caught, in which case they’ll price it as a UK buy

    IIRC you’ll pay 4.5% duty + VAT on the price and shipping costs + a handling fee

    about right, but can vary depending where the country of origin is.

    I owe an apology to Dirt. It seems they tried to sell me advertisement space in Dirt 100, not an actual place in the 100.

    Sorry Dirt.

    I think all three sound a bit too ‘neat’, likevdubber says they need compression or more layers, but a damn fine effort anyways!

    I am just listening to Diggers on Proton though, so hard to judge against that class really!

    mboy, you do a bit of dj’ing?

    Having seen the car wreck that is the Chumba forum on MTBR, I would never buy a Chumba. Unfortunately for Si, Oscar and Alan are doing real damage to his business and it feels like a brand which could fold at any moment. Luckily for Si, the Brodies and Canfields are very good brands and bikes.

    I don’t deal with Canfield anymore, far more hassle than Chumba ever have been. Please don’t believe everything you read 🙂

    I deal with Chumba in the UK, so any issues and you deal with me, no one else. To date, i don’t think anyone has ever been unhappy with what i have supplied?

    they’re really talking about rear centre.

    really? I mean do most people know what they want, or just repeating what they have heard and think they want?

    Imo keep measurements simple. Bit like when the discussion was about sag and how some like to quote HA when sagged, all pointless and confusing.

    how are the short stay being accommodated on a lot of these bikes? Are they kinking the st? The Canfield amongst others struggle with large volume tyres and mech interface with the short stays.

    If Saddam was still around, and was looking to have a nuke, would we be happy for him to have one?

    Fact is, no one should have them. We should do everything to stop more nukes being made, everything, because one day they will be used.

    Should Iran execute a pre-emptive strike on Israel’s nuclear sites?

    Depends if you think Isreal are likely to use the bomb on others, would Iran?
