    Was waiting for my ride to work voucher to come and Evans sold the last fuse pro in large the day before I got the email. I was miffed so went for the Santa Cruz chameleon instead. A lot more expensive but what the hell !!!

    The pound has dropped to this level before (a few years ago) and don’t remember everything suddenly being increased in price then. Unless it did and I just don’t remember.

    The question is will the price come back down when the value of the pound increases ?

    Cheers lunacycle. I got Ticsmon jr one for his birthday and have already upgraded the forks which are 2.5kg to some second hand rebas. 1.5kg. And the wheels to some mavic cross trail that I picked up very cheap. I also had a 1×10 slx shifter, mech and cassette in my spares box so put them on with a narrow wide front ring. It weighs just over 11kgs now which isn’t bad. Should of weighed the bike before I started upgrading it to see what the difference is.

    Aren’t most modern frames using zero stack headsets ?
    120mm for large headtube 20mm for spacers and up to 60mm for stem is 180mm. I could easily get away with 160mm with spacers on mine. Still cut it at 180 though

    Doesn’t matter what the dog looks like as long as you’ve got time (obviously the more active the breed the more time they need) and are willing to train it.

    As Khani says just go for a poodle or a cocker to avoid the price of the new designer mungrels.

    I did this a few years ago and sure I changed the axle. Take the end caps off and see if a 12mm axle will fit through.

    I have the same as burnsybhoy and am very happy with it. Comes with single or double shot holders, steamer, cup warmer and it’s easy to use.

    I was in the same boat. My lbs sent them for me but I had to pay the postage. Wether it’d be quicker sending them yourself, I don’t know

    Leku. I’ve been looking at the Whyte 403 but it’s £625 which is a hell of a lot more but it has air sprung forks which are a lot lighter.

    Yes. But I would say that cos I’ve got one. Got mine heavily discounted from Evans and I absolutely love it, mines the xr though with the 160 fork. On the ups it’s ok, considering the short stem and slack head angle (no where near as slack as some) but it’s no whippet. Point it down and it just seems to want to go faster and faster, cornering is a breeze, it seems to corner easier than my previous bikes with minimal weight transfer which took a bit of getting used to.

    Don’t know about linking them but rode penmachno the other day and the middle section was very wet. Some very deep puddles that swallowed the front wheel. The beginning and end where pretty dry though

    Spaniels dig quite a bit, so if bored could try and dig it’s way out. They are very easy to train and are eager to please but you’ve got to keep teaching them knew things to keep their brain occupied. They are bonkers though, our cocker is 4 months old and already managed to break her leg. Poor thing is still running about and jumping on everything with her cast on.

    When I take her for a walk I sometimes take the kids with me on there bikes to get her used to them. She just runs behind them.
