    Im ur sort of weight and like the sound of these except the price ! , being thinking about running a cheaper/heavier set of 29er wheels instead

    Liking the sound of this, 29er wheels seem a cheaper option at the minute , rather than cx wheels 🙂 .. guessing as long as the spacings correct and the rim isnt too wide then there shouldnt be an issue 🙂

    No
    Always have a lock through the bikes and rack locked to the towbar mount when on the motorway, just in case it comes off at speed !

    Have to admit id never heard of it until we bought a brand new car last year so we took it out for peace of mind as have never had a new car before, think it was over £400 for the first 3 years.
    since looking about we could of got the same for less than half that !, but we didnt know any different 🙁

    Hi Jameso, thanks for getting back to me, i had no idea the bike hadnt got the hole in the crown, yes the bike was reduced to £900 from the 1k price but thought that was a sale price as the others in the range had been reduced as well ? … no mention of reduced price due to not havin certain bits fitted ??
    I bought the bike mail order not through a shop, so whats the best way to sort this , can the fork just be posted to me for me to fit or do i have to take it to a shop ?
    or even better can you source me a bright green frame/fork in exchange ? 🙂

    Good luck for the future 🙂
    On a different note I rode the Birmingham Bikeathon yesterday and that was for leukaemia research so hopefully I’ve done a little to help

    @ Cookeaa .. Nothing wrong with wanting your bike to look nice ? … surely this is part of the reason we spend so much money on them ?
    zip ties will look crap … I had thought about double sided tape as well … may be the only option
    Ill wait and see what jameso says ? … is it correct or not …. then go from there 🙂

    stumpy_m4

    Surely then if theres not holes in the crown then the fork is unsuitable for its intended purpose …. ie having mudguards fitted … and if im honest , no good to me !

    @Lummox … yeah 2014 arkose 3 .. it has the inserts/boltholes for guards halfway up the fork blade but nothing at the fork crown ??

    stumpy_m4
    Free Member

    Thanks but not having unsightly zip ties around the fork legs , will look crap !
    Guards are 28-45 if that helps , nice snug fit 🙂
    Starting to think the forks are now faulty, not supplied with correct holes etc

    I had a very strong bond with a Titus Motolite a few years back, imported the frame direct from the states and built it exactly how i wanted it, it was my redundancy prezzie to myself, My Dream bike … But didn’t get time to ride it much as kids and life, new job got in the way, sold it through ebay … guy collected it said he cant wait to ride it etc ! … the following week it was in parts on ebay … totally gutted was an understatement ! … i almost cried ……. never again !
    Still miss it 🙁

    jameso – Member
    any small green or blue frames/forks coming in ?
    Yes we’re ranging frame and fork sets this year – not all colours and aside from the splatter paint SS and Arkose 5 frames I’d need to check – the 3 or 4 I think. May have some 2014 frames in also, we hold onto them for warranty use but generally sell them by the time new model frame spare stock arrives.

    cheers jameso … if you have any small green 2014 frame / forks , id be interested as well
