Steve has moved on, He does work for the offshore industry now and I`m not sure if he still does this work, but I shall make him aware of this post

There`s something on the seatpost……below the “light”

There is no mention of the riding ability….. so presumably you`re happy with that.
B is the answer.

Can anyone recommend a torque wrench which will do the job and not cost he earth?

You didnt scrimp on bike parts so why scrimp on bike tools?
Buy a half decent one and do ther job properly….. :wink:

I have a Gravity dropper on Dialled PA, well worth it! :-)

Its a bit orange but nowt to do with Halifax:

subscriber but WH Smith usually get it first :(

1) He does say he`d be interested in offers around the stated price
2) How long is the wait for Orange Fives currently?
3) Its for sale, you have the option to buy it or get something else and retain a bit of originality….

All bridleways stop at the border. In Scotia they dont have the same land access farce that exists in England…..

+1 for Kestrel stand

Trans Provence…..

When it suits “equal rights” when its prime parking, special case END OF*!
Make yor mind up!!!!

*I have been known to have bigot tendancies

A fair few, depends how much time you have really. (its misty here this morning :wink: )

Having swapped five inches of hardtail trail bike for a cx bike for a 4 hour memorial ride on Saturday, I can only say, it takes a particular sort of person to ENJOY riding one of those (awful) things….

QR could have been loose

Maybe not done up properly in the first place.Always check its properly tight and it wont happen again…
:wink:

A friend put a TREK69er in the back of one and travelled from down south way, to the real world….

SWB T5. Bungee”d 4 bikes against bulkhead with R`n R bed in seat position :-)

“please tell me what you think”

For knowing I`d offend you I wont……

Guess what… Gravity dropper on my Dialled works smashingly :roll:

Dmf failed, put hole in gearbox….. 700quid? Think yourself lucky…

Just googled my gf and she came out top of the list! Did the same for google images and it was a picture I d taken-from bookface I hasten to add!
I checked my own name, and somebody in NZ is using my picture on their facebook!!

Yes,standing Ive had a loan of 06 one while my T5s been in dry dock.

It aint broke dont need to fix…..

I`ve found that riding a size smaller bike makes it more “chuckaboutable”.
Maybe you should try an “L” instead….

How about stitching them into users pockets on elastic so they dont end up littering the trails!!!

T5s reliable???? Waterpump, steering pump and now a gearbox…in under 65 K

It has been done….. It wasn t sponsored by Dialled bikes though.It was in a time when there was no elite category, only one. A gravity dropper would`ve been more use maybe and as mentioned above it would no longer be competitive…
150mm forks, 720mm bars 2 biggish crashes
1 forgotten brand Black hardtail
1 Orange R8
2 Cotic souls(1 staff)
1 Dialled PA
2 Alpines(staff)
Thats right Rob isnt it?

Lots of this

What the FFFFFFFF………

17″ with longish fork `cos thats how I like it. Survived Trans Provence, say no more

Most fun bike I`ve EVER owned!

Some times it takes a couple of days for the DHL parcel farce hand over – we are looking into this (it only happens where there is limited DHL coverage)

Despite their shortcomings the Royal Mail still are the only ones to give genuine total UK coverage, regardless of claims…

Typical, this was the first year I paid any attention to 4X @ Fort Bill, loved it too!
:|

Team-CHR are still alive although, as mentioned, mostly downhill stuff. I can think of a couple of long offroad rides from “the door” that`d take a day each…..
Mr Purdy`s book has one of them in, linking two rides together.
And, Fatbikes would be no use what so ever ;)

My Dialled Bikes Prince Albert has been to the south of France twice, is that not long travel?
:-)

Highly recommended:

Lycra, is of course reknown the world over, for it`s abrasion resistance……

More variety @ InnerLEITHEN, only a couple of dedicated DH tracks @ Ae. You could always walk the courses first???

I was there as my mate from the other end of the country stayed at mine with his GF before and after.
We went to several “spectator points”, I ended up fixing brakes and fettling(dry warm hands work way better than wet cold ones) then proceeded to ferry retirees back to the the start. Hats off to everybody who even started the event, it was gopping @ 06.30 and was forecast to stay that way.
Numplumz, you were by far the fastest I met when doing my IR bit on the road section from Bloodybush pillar down to The Forks(78mile cut off)well done to you but TP dust is still more preferable…..
BTW Kielder: just not for me thats all!

Lee, teh moor out to Bloody bush pillar collects a hell of a lot of water, and drains down either to Newcastleton or Kielder one way or another. Thats why they built the reservoir there.
What happened to Geda? I spent 45 minutes making his brake pads fit! 8O

I`ve never seen it, but then again I run 11 year old Marzocchis… 8)
