There is a one down from the bottom corner of Llyn Geirionydd but it is a footpath and might be a bit difficult to blend in to your ride .

That’ll do for me ,
That polished frame is stunning

Do they come with a seat clamp of any sort ?

FFS… iDave is there any need ????? is this not a bike forum ? where you ask bike related question

The highroller and Advantage would be perfect

How much was that ?

Try setting the rebound to 4 clicks from full ( slow ) then fine tune a click either way , but the main thing is if it rides good as a little movement aint gona kill you or slow you down either

Did you not think about trying a bigger size

GT85 but be fast as it will stick them like glue

The Gobi is the worst saddle i’ve ever had as it’s so narrow and curved from side to side , having had both the SDG Bell-Air and the Spoon i found them to be the same curvy shape from front to back just the spoon had slightly less padding .
For me the SDG Formula and Specialized Henge are super comfy as they are the right width and quite flat , but it’s taken years and a few hundred pounds worth of swapping saddles to find them .

Nant-y-Arian
Coed-y-Brenin
Penmachno apart from the drainage

my ceramic BB went a little tight , so a popped the seals off , cleaned the bearings and used a light grease . Have been doing that for about two years and they are still running super smooth .

STENDEC do a tubeless fluid that is much better than stan’s and seals quicker and bigger holes

Mine have arrived and dropped to 130mm no problem at all , i did it myself and a very easy job it was to as all you need is on redtube sorry i ment youtube

that sounds nasty hope you recover well . I too had a go Sunday thinking it was open and really enjoyed it and looking forward to having a play in the dark . I think the recent work done has been great and is turning the place into a days riding instead of a quick blast when time is an issue , it’s also nice to see that the crazy parking fees are being put to good use , well done One Planet

How do you get them to that price ? as with 15mm bolt through they are £296.96 even using the V.I.P. :?:

is it chain pull from suspension BOB

the compound is a little hard for a trail tyre – i recon as mine was a bit slippy

Hope R4 every time for me as it gives you the choice to use it as a helmet light , and if you strap the battery to your stem you’ll not have ” loads of cable to mess with ” .

plus if you use the R4 as a head torch the battery indicator is irrelevant anyway

king of shave is very good and not too pricey

we were in the red lion about 4 yrs ago on the sat night before the Dyfi when a massive fight broke out between locals it was great .
I bet the English that moan about getting a bad reception in Welsh pub’s have pub’s in their towns very similar only they know to avoid them

GT85 seems like it shouldn’t work but try it it’s amazing

the Americans are so much more religious because they are far far closer to judgement day than the rest of the world ….. What a NUTTER

calum what’s it like compared to the Highroller .

i have found the XC getting interesting on wet roots and rock

I’d still keep the Trek though

I’d get rid of the Strange as the warranty is crap but you’ve got a lifetime warranty on the Trek plus it’s lighter and pedals better without relying on propedal

I’ve got a book written by Andy Pruitt the man behind the Specialized Body Geometry gear and his remey for “hot foot” is moving the cleat as far back as it’ll go . Put it in google and see what comes back .

it it when seated , standing or both ?

Chain-L no5 is what you need

+1 Blackburn it’s like a little compressor and its got a lifetime warranty

Red shaft too what’s not to like

Has it been left to close to the fire and melted a little ?
Still nice though

Hora don’t bite – the clown thought Wales was part of England last night which is quite offensive really , so is he ignorant or racist ? :wink:

Elfinsafety there is some great riding up there too massive climbing but well worth it

Come near Wales and i’ll let your tires down English boy :lol: . Lots of nice bits off the Marin too – loads of choice

Elfinsafety i hope you are joking or are you American ??? :evil:

Have a look at hitthehills.com i’ve just been on one of their weekends in the Dales and had an amazing time , really good ridin but fantastic food and hospitality . Have a look at the web site as they are doing a weekend it that area soon

can you just buy the HRM strap to go with the basic unit

Chain-L no5 is so much better than the others mentioned as it’s good for wet or dry riding and makes your chain super quiet and smooth , but does need care when applying

I ride a F.S because it allows me to ride harder for longer without having a bad back for days , but it is only short travel so i’m not going silly A&E speed when it goes wrong , but still getting a buzz .

House Boy ???

But i bet most of you clowns saying you dont NEED F.S are using
Big soft compound tires – which you dont need
Disc brakes – which you dont need
indexing gears
SPD’s
wide riser bars
etc etc etc

They are all MTB’s and all good
