Hi …At the moment I’m riding an On One freeranger in Medium 90mm stem 170mm cranks  it feels good except for a lot of toe overlap and I’d like to be slightly higher at the front …The 54cm Tripster does pretty much match the medium freeranger and that’s the way I’m leaning at the moment, What I do gain in the 56cm Tripster is more front centre mm’s 32mm over the on one and 14mm over the 54 Tripster …I’ve pretty much decided to go with the 54cm it gives me 18mm more front centre and 7mm more head tube ..the reach is only 10mm more (18mm on the 56) ….sadly can’t through a leg over one as my LBS has to order in …

Thanks to all who replied

Hi …Locally at the moment getting a GPs appointment is still hard , and given the fact work is busy at the moment, sounds like naively I thought by doing an at home test would take some of the unnecessary workload of the NHS …I’ve no known problems just fancied knowing what my Cholesterol Testosterone etc levels are like given I’m mid 50s now .

Thanks for your input guys

Thanks guys , but getting time off work to go to the GP isn’t possible at the moment

I’ve linked him to this page so he can read your responses

Thanks again

Ah ok
What sort of budget does he need to go to ?

Thats brilliant 😂😂👍
At the moment I’d gladly swop her for a rowing machine , one from Argos would do 😂👍👍👍

Thanks for the replies

Neither playing god with animals or being called a BASTARD sits well with me
I’ll gladly take any advice given on how to humanely try to resolve a long on going problem
BUT BRING CALLED A BASTARD NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED FACE TO FACE

PM me for a meet

Just to try and put Some minds at rest
I’ve invested a lot into the baiting and relocating method
Months of trial and error and many traps have been purchased but with little result

I’m toying with the idea of using my DT xm1501 30mm Wheels

Plus-one
What tyres were they ?
And did you rate them ?
Thanks

Sorry this is a bit of a hijack
Im looking for some 700c tyres to fit on my gravel bike to used many on the road maybe to odd canal towpath
The wheels are 30mm internal width
The frame (on one space chicken) accepts up to 40mm according to them
Ive been looking at Panaracer gravel king sk in 38mm would this be a good choice

Thanks

The Two wheels guy is Baz
I’ve had many wheels built and repaired by him
Brilliant

Im sure I have some 9speed cassettes ?

Thanks

Wow …thanks guys
Looks like I’ll be putting weight on this trip 👍

Mrhoppy …Many thanks I’ve tried your suggestion and it works much better 👍

Seems I’m not alone in my frustrations with komoot…I think after the subscription comes to an end I’ll go back to RWGPS , for me plotting road bike routes seems much easier with RWGPS

Guys as always thanks

Wow ..as always guys great info backed up by genuine experience.
Lot’s to think about
I’m genuinely excited to give this a go
Please keep the advice coming
I love gathering opinions based on experience.
There’s always something someone will mention that you never thought of or looked at in a particular way

Great advice so far thanks
Anybody got any thoughts/experiences with Vango banshee ?

I’m Midlands based so somewhere local would be nice 👍

Can anybody recommend somewhere that will weld some more cable guides on the frame ?
Thanks for all replies

Gordymac…I’ll look into that
I already have a dropper to go in
But may be much easier to go with your suggestion

Also if you were to choose a custom frame
Who would you choose?

Simon
Are you saying you can machine airshafts done so its possible to convert pikes to 100mm?
if so how much ?

Different wheel I know but I’ve got campagnolo rim brake zondas
They haven’t had a spanner on them in 4years
Still true and I’m not light
Great wheels

Had fulcrum sport disc on my Cx bike the freehub lasted about 2mionths

OMM

Thanks
It’s the way marked trails we will be riding this weekend so I’ll run the forecasters
For future reference what are you running for off piste stuff ?

Bugger
I like them to match the frame ( holds head in shame )

I’m off for a big night cap
Goodnight

My mates Sisters boyfriend had a boil in an awkward place
He persuaded her to take a look
He lay on the bed legs behind his ears
she leaned in to inspect , of course he decided to do the obvious
Let’s just say she needed a wash afterwards and such was the force of his effort
The adjacent bedroom wall needed a scrub and a new lick of paint

And NO they are not still together

Sorry yes , I mean good secondhand ones
Not looking to pay more than about £750ish

I made a quick search and there’s places offering models a few years old refurbished and 12 months warranty within my budget
But I’m just interested to here if anybody can recommend anywhere

Thanks

Thanks for responses
Ichabod I may be interested in your wheels
Email me pics and details please

Thanks guys …decided to pay the fees

The seller seems sound enough and offered collection but the distance was to far

He doesn’t mind if I pay Paypal gift or I cover the fees
It’s just me wondering what benefits paying the fees gives me ?
If he posts it and it gets lost then the postal insurance should cover a claim ?
Or is it a question of if he doesn’t post it , then I can claim if Paypal ?

Unfortunately I’m in the midlands not the south west I’d be really interested in looking at those can I trouble you to send me some pics

Many thanks

Again I’d be interested in seeing how you’ve managed to make it work and possibly purchasing if suitable

Many thanks

In your opinion which flavour of spacing would work best with my desired combination
Santa Cruz tallboy 3
CK non boost hub
I’m sorted on the front because I’m getting a frame only tallboy and already have non boost pikes

Has anybody successfully done this with a CK rear hub ..
LBS reckon it can’t be done with CK

Greyspoke
Many thanks for the link
Is there anywhere uk based that supply the spacers
