Rourke 953??

I’m runing a short cage 105 mech with a 32t XT cassette, no problems

You need I act on DrP’s advice, he is 100% correct both morally and from a legal safeguarding perspective. Worrying that some people think this is an OK situation. Questions need to be asked and challenges made by the appropriately skilled professionals who will make an informed decision about any form of intervention.

These are a bargin

Definitely 🙂

I haven’t got resistance on my Elite rollers but find workouts hurt big time if done proprly also got an imagic turbo but enjoy the rollers for base stuff and tempo/threshold spins using power meter. I wouldn’t go for resistance as you can work hard enough with just a standard setup IMHO

Was looking forward to racing at Newcastleton but I suppose Wasing Park will do.

Got a full Sony set up in mint condition for sale

I ride Singletrack on my CX bike

Another vote for Avid brakes

Thinking about it for CX next year, but limited tyre choice is a pain

Sidi dragons MTB and Ergo road over here too. More comfy than Spesh or Shimano as long as they fit your feet

Bought lights off them, great customer service and after sales

Have a look at the Stan’s website there a video on there showing you how to ensure the tyres are sealed by shaking the wheels to distribute the fluid and seal the wheels.

Also wheels often hold pressure after a ride or two.

Thanks

Never had one in all the years I’ve been throwing cash at em.

I use a turbo QR on the little un’s bike trailer no problems at all

It’ll be a boggy mess, I’d avoid until spring.

Always do a full service once a year, makes a difference IMHO

Yep service my Fox, Rock Shox and Magura forks. Just make sure you have the correct tools, parts and instructions. Go steady and you’ll be fine

We’ve booked up with sporting tours for next year after doing Paris – Roubaix this year and having a great time.

I looked at these but heard of reliabilty problems so went for a set of Elite Arion Parabolic Rollers from Wiggle on sale at £150, should have been £200.

Going to fall off them for the first time tonight

Morgan Blue chain cleaner and a brush, perfect job everytime.

I asked for that…….

Thanks Chef

First CX season for me, hardly any riding or racing in the past year has meant I’m consistently at the back of the vets field of the West Mids League but loving it so far

Rode the Beast, Minor Taur and Tarw Ddu trails at CYB on Saturday and Pont Scethin loop yesterday

I broke the sound barrier comming off Mt Ventoux once

+1 for Norfolk Lines

You will have some adjustment of postion with stem length and saddle postion but making ‘extreme’ changes can upset the balance of the riders postion. There is a useful bike fit calculator here this may help with getting some idea of frame size, stem length and saddle adjustmente but there is no real alternative for sitting on a bike, many shops now offer a bike fit with a new bike. Where are you based?

My other half had a Specialised Dolce Elite but fit was very wrong for her, she’s now got an XS Focus Cayo that fits perfect. Beware that not everyone fits a WSD bike.

She’s also got some size mint 40 Sidi’s Genius 6.6 Road Shoes for sale if your interested?

Got an Orbea Orca ‘race’ bike, a Ridley winter/training bike and have just took delivery of a Trek cross bike. All addition to my 3 MTB’s

2003 On One Tinbred (the original one) with 3×9 XTR, Avid Ultimate brakes, Fox RLC forks, American Classic tubeless wheels and 2010 Trek Top Fuel with practically the same build as the one one. Also got an 853 rigid Inbred for when it gets mucky. Mainly used for Enduros and 24 hour solos

Ok, thought they’d improved but obviously not improved enough

My outlaws live about 7 mile away and I often take my rigid singlespeed round for a couple of quick laps. Ridden fast it’s quite enjoyable.

Ridden solo for the past two years in less than ideal conditions, last year was especially bad. Cannot do this year and the forecast is fantastic! Enjoy

TandemJersey that sounds right, it was a few years ago. Memory is not so good as I’ve been on the floor many times since 🙂

I got knocked off my bike a few years back overtaking stationay/slow moving traffic, on the right. Whilst in the end I wasnt found to be at fault my solictor was clear that the law and courts see such a manouver as being inherriently dangerous and the correct course of action should be to wait with the stationary traffic.

There is case law regarding this, cannot remember which case it was but it was oan accident invovling a milk foat and a bike.

In the real world cyclists are not going to wait in stationary traffic, I still overtake on the right as you would in a car. Just go easy and keep your wits about you

I wore clear vented lenses out on the road on Sunday in biblical downpours and had no problems

I’ll be going round on my single speed if weather doesnt pick up. I live about 15 miles from Catton and whilst today is Ok the rest of week isnt looking to clever.

I’m down to ride solo but have woken today with a sore throat and ear ache and feel as weak as a kitten (no difference there then)
