    Bikes can not weigh more than 23kg under easy jets new terms and conditions. The only exception is if you booked before they changed the rules, fortunately our party did ( for Morzine next July ) We’ve checked.

    Last Friday was diving into a fast down hill corner with small rut/berm, next thing I know I,m on floor with broken coller bone. Tyre was a used 2.35 high roller on crest rim or rather not on rim. No more tubeless for me .

    I think it,s only the new 2013/14 air forks that have p.m.

    Thanks for that, I like the way they keep fork seals clean.

    I took the family to Morzine and it was great.Highly recomend the “multi-pass” 1E per day gives you lift pass for the whole region.
    Plus lots of other acivities like swimming and tennis.
    Morzine would probably be best if your on a budget.

    Get one. I have several bikes and this is my fave at the moment. I changed bar and stem soon as I got mine, 65mm stem. Also it pedals really well with the propedal off, which is comfy.

    Had exactly this prob’ last year, changed the new s.s. 203 rotor for an old hayes one and it instantly went away. B.T.W. I usually use formula 180 rotors and think they’re great.

    Merlin’s Malt 1 is very “soft” at the back, plus you get a proper fork.

    Looks really dry , so the “brown” stripes are probably fallow to allow moisture to build up for the next year. The randomness isn,t The lines are mostly perpindiculer to access roads and to avoid patches of rock.

    Put them in your car, drive to local Tree surgeon / firewood supplier, who has a large hydraulic spitter, give him a tenner ( or similar ) help him split them , load back in car.

    Suspension pivots. As you pedal a little bit of “bob” can cause a creake.

    Same here near Preston. I can see a big orange mast, but no longer get a ‘full’ signal all the time. Something to do with Tmobile merger I guess.?

    Another vote for varifocals, had them a month, took one day to get used to them. ( grounds a bit blury by front wheel mind! ) Try specsavers – very good.
