Hi
Makita for me , got mine from toolchestdirect a while ago , at the time they couldnt be beaten on price

Off to glasgow in the morning for a three day jolly with my cousin ,looking forward to the gig

So take a change of brake pads and pants then ?

Just Looked up all mentioned , They seem reasonably close to Ambleside
May be planning a guys weekend road biking soon so
What would be the most sadistic course imaginable in one day ?

thanks

Try Armorall
Can be bought from halfords
I spray it on , brush it all over with a paint brush ,leave it overnight and wipe off next day
I love it

Thanks guys

The intension is to put them on my singlespeed , which ive always found hard to pedal
(sometimes get knee pains)
am i right in saying going from a 175 to a 165 may make it slightly easier to pedal in the same gear ratio

Hi
Many thanks for all replies , ive gone for superstar sintered ,going to give them a try

And he never cramps now 😳

Hi
Ive got a friend who had the same problem every time we did a merida or endurance event
He is fitter than me , carries far less weight , jogged etc
I never cramped up ,even went totally spent , but he suffered terribly usually after around the 3 or 4 hr mark
it was becoming so much of a problem he strongly considered not doing the events

After lots of trial and error he found that for him a concoction of
salt tablets before and during
Tonic water before and during
Camelback mixture of high 5 , tonic water ,

Sounds alot of hassle i no but it works for him , never craps now

Try MTBR
seem to remember seeing some opinions on there on one forum

Thanks
ive got to get a new chainset for a cx build , and just prefer the look of campags cx chainset , they do have a 10spd version but its not as nice

Hi
Simple enough correct , be careful not to stretch to flexy hose to much
From the pic it looks like you have quite a bit of spare hose there anyway
Remember this ..soap test everything afterwards just case you’ve disturbed anything
(water and washing up liquid mixed in an old muc off bottle will do)
Visit BES web site for any fittings (page 32 has the flexy hoses)

Hi
Sorry to far for me to pop round and take a look , West Mids
Is it just the meter raising you need done , and not the pipe to the stop cock from outside
If so the pipe between the stop cock and meter (usually a flexi hose) can be raised by doing the pipe work in copper this will allow you to raise the meter of the floor
Hope this helps if not send pics to email address and ill take a look ,

Hi
I may be able to help ,where abouts are you ?

+1 what kinger said

Should of said its never going to be raced
The bike is going to be a winter alternative to singlespeed
The rest of our group already have CX bikes
So you could say its for training only
But any gain our them ill take willingly

Hi
Should of said the intention is for our group to
Ride a mixture of roads and bridle ways through the
Winter instead singlespeeding
I’m the only one without a cx bike , I’m worried I won’t like the riding
Position of a dropped bar cx ,and miss the braking power of a Mtb

What would the nicer one be ???

Im currently thinking about
On one dirty disco
&
Kinesis Pro6
I like both

You see i was happy with the white until i just noticed TEETOSUGARS
And now i want it powdercoated again

NO MORE PICS PLEASE

i agree though they rock

Its white
ive thought about having it powder coated a couple of times
but
at the moment it doesnt need doing and i still quite like the white

Whats the problem with yours , or do you fancy a change ?

i agree its all about the geometry on the cove
i love it
its not to xc or to slack
it just raps itself around trails and leaves you wondering why youve
spent so much on your other bikes

Hi Its a medium 17.5 i think
i originally had a large but found it slightly to big
im 5.10 and have a 32′ inside leg
And the medium is spot on

If you replace it you will regret it
ive a whyte 19 ti and have to be honest the cove rides every bit as good
Hardly ever ride the cove ,ive stripped it to sell on a few occasions
i just cant do it

i no what you mean about the ride
ive got the older version and hardly ever ride it
just cant bring myself to sell
because when i do ride it , it always leaves me smiling

The geometry is spot on, the ride is as good as my Ti hardtail

Driven both recently
The astra was nice to drive but the leon felt more sporty
Seat had it on the looks from the outside
Astra felt nicer on the inside
ended up getting a golf

Also im 5.10 what size M or L

Gob smackingly good
The card is almost out the wallet

STAY AWAY
ITS C**P

Agree about rubbish aswell

Hi
I work in the trade
Where are you ?
Could possibly sort this out for you

Im in the midlands where abouts are you?

thanks

Just checked it out
it recommends applying a base coat first osmo wr base coat
is this the way to go , or just apply the finish

Thanks
