i have a contact in the trade who happens to be a giant dealer, they (Giant UK) sold out of pretty much everything in August and were already pulling in 2010 stock.

Its been a good year for them i reckon..

surfer, are you are talking about your router, the op is talking about the xbox wireless adapter, different things, your router can be anything, it appears though th xbox adapter works best with the official one.

To tragically1969 & allthepies & pook – I'll bet you miserable sods are a right barrel of laughs on a ride!

I bet you're the sort who'd rather spend all their spends on a big TV so they can stay in and never interact with other people in the real world, and have worryingly clean bikes.

Cheer up for christ's sake!

Is that you Mum ?

:lol: @ allthepies, my thoughts exactly !!

what do you mean size of the WS, physical kb size or rows x column size ?

65536 is the maximum amount of rows you can have in Excel anyway.

I sympathise with you.

Mines gone the same, i really wonder in this world of high tech this and that why nobody can come up with a suitable way of sealing round a bath that does not rely on whats basically a posh type of glue.

I second OMM, i have the 25, its an awesome bit of kit.

A skewer is a skewer is a skewer, all should be 5mm ?

For the XBOX you dont need any additional software on your PC, it just hooks into your Media Player 11 library, was playing about with it last night, dead simple and seems to work well over wireless.

You can do it with an XBOX 360 very easily.

Different walls have different rules, generally 6a on a green or whatever would mean for hands and feet, some walls allow smearing on the flat wall or palming, some dont, it depends on the route setter really

I dont know but the clamp looks gash, like and old USE

Cant help thinking for that money a Thomson Alloy or a Cheaper carbon would be just as light and have a warranty at least if it does fail.

If you have drilled the corner you have done half the job anyway, just drill the corner with a 25mm core drill and put conduit in to your back boxes then pull the HDMI cables through connected to back boxes on either side

Even if you use a wall plate:

You are going to need to get and HDMI cable up there, how you going to get that through a 12mm hole ?

wwaswas

not quite correct, you can add a spur to an exisitng circuit

Q5 here:

Dont use a wall plate, if you can run a couple of 30mm flexible smooth bore conduits up the wall, that way you can get a different cable up if you need to

Fulcrum Red Metal 5's here, i run 2 pairs, done the alps and 2 winters so far, never had to touch them

The racing 7 road wheels are crap though, the 3's are however loads better and the Racing 1's even better again

Is it just me or does the Lynskey in the link above not look rubbish with those rear dropouts ?

Office 2007 Home and Student, £54, well worth it IMHO.

Honestly, i reckon you will be fine, you wouldnt have a SS if you coulndt ride it, and again, its a trail centre

and if its wet its a real sandy mess which creates a nice grinding paste for your drivetrain

hmm could be…i dont know much about laptops,which brand to go for etc..?

they area all the same group, HP, Fujitsu, Dell, Acer, Lenovo, all pretty much of a muchess really, its all down to budget really

I ride the lakes, so personally i cant compare, sorry

There is nothing too long, it a trail centre after all, there is a couple of stiff climbs on singletrack and a few draggy fire roads but i didnt have to push any of them, 32×18 by the way.

probably none of the above, try Ebuyer

I asked a similar question a while back about SS, i thinks its pretty well suited to SS riding myself, really enjoyed it, never ridden it geared but certainly didnt feel like i missed them.

But a bigger frame also means a longer top tube,

Agreed a longer top tube will be as standard, i use a frame with a 56 top tube and a 120mm stem and have done for years, i know it fits me.

I could ride the next size down with a 55 top tube with a 110 stem, that would fit too but the seat tube would be too small and i would end up with spacers under the stem, sound familiar ?

and trying to solve a too-long top tube by sliding the seat forward isn't good advice at all.

Different saddles vary by that measurement, ever seen the length of a Fizik Arione, compared to a Flite ?

You dont sit in one position on a saddle so the position is important but not critical, we are talking about 15mm here, not 150mm

Any professional bike fitter would tell you this.

And would also be laughing all the way to the bank when they tell you you need a custom frame, which you won't.

Anyway we all seem to have our opinions and none is helping the OP, one mans good fit is anothers bad one, like i said further up, if he finds the fit good then thats all that matters, i wouldnt be happy but then again i very rarely am :wink:

How do you all know it's too small? DOes anyone on here actually know my size/proportions?

Unless you have some sort of stange body shape in which your legs are vastly out of proportion to your upper body i still reckon it wrong, sorry :wink:

Getting a frame with a longer top tube won't solve this though. It'll just stretch him out, all other things being equal.

But getting a bike with the right size seat tube on the other hand would have been a good idea.

bigger seat tube = bigger head tube, thus negating the need for heaps of seatpost out and a stack of spacers.

Move the saddle forward 1.5cm (which is a long way back at the moment) and that takes the extra length in the top tube.

But like has already been stated if you are happy with it then thats all that matters, we can all go and whistle :lol:

This mereley adds to the STW caveat of not posting a picture of your bike

OK, i see now, for development, try this, from a quick Google:

http://www.geekgirls.com/net_smtp.htm

You should do neither, if you dont know what SMTP is or even how it works in its simplest terms then dont bother trying to set one up.

If you are doing ecommerce email would generally built into a hosting package, you know you need to get somebody to host the site dont you ?

Whichever way you try and justify the fit to yourself its too small, sorry.

Doing a bit of googling, Forza Disc 2 is 1.9GB install size, you will need to buy an external Hard Drive to install it

hmmm dont know then, still sounds like its too big, 64MB is nothing size wise for these sort of things

Oh dear lord……………..

Well the fact the game is probably on a DVD so will be about 4.7GB and your card is 64MB that might give you a clue as to why it wont fit ?

Why are you trying to copy it to the console anyway, just stick it in and play it

MS SQL Express does not allow the use of SQL Management studio though, which is what most folk would use to build queries\test etc.

If you go for a Nikon these lenses always seem to crop up in conversation:

Weird, we must have had a tour of wettest BW's in Grizedale then, most of them were running with water and there were foot deep puddles all over the place.

Bear in mind it's also put down about 4 inches in the last 24hrs too !!

Wet !!

http://www.thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk/photos/flooding/

I was in Grizedale on Sunday, it was the wettest i have ever seen it, nothing had drained anywhere !!

I wouldn't bother if i were you, half of the lakes is under water (and not the half that are usually covered by lakes)
