Anything to catch bike thief or prevent them stealing bikes, im all IN…. But this one im afraid gonna open up a can of worms.. I mean, how many bikers catch the thief simply because the thieves are stupid enough to post/advertised their stolen bikes online as a whole?… And how many catch a thief because they spotted a part of their stolen bike adverstised online? I think anyone can do the math .. .. The thieves just gonna break our bike and will sell it as spare parts which is a hundred times more difficult for us or the police who monitor this thing. ..

I cant believe they spend tons of cash to pay for the muppets to do this design.. Any mtb’ers knows mud (sand,grit) could get there and make the mechanism fail.

Cheers all for the reply.

@b.a.nana ..this is what i want to hear.. Thanks for reminding me on that “bunny hop” :D

@mugboo ..i assume you had skill s course with them.. Do tell :roll:

@tmb467 … Average at best.. Red trails round and round dog in the C.Chase.? Tyres? Whatever suits winter/rainy/muddy weather…

..just want to learn jumps and proper drops really like a real mtb’r :wink:

Pro ride guides.. Read good things about them across forums.. Booked for private session… Had a browse in their website again.. They seem to be doing hardcore :roll: … Im biting more than i could chew i imagine.

Maybe its not 2012 :roll:

Post the bike or hide to a friends house mate.. Then bring it piece by piece.. While you post the old bike in forsale section.. If its different color.. Just buy a spray paint can.. And spray the garage or any wall that looks like an overspray.. I believe you can do it from here ;)

Bought the bike discounted to £1,500…. Now im after a £4,300 -£4,800 yetisb66 if the accept it back.

LOL.. With the exact figure, not really .

Just hoping someone would humour me and answer the question, i probably need to rephrase my question.. Got this dilemma of returning an unused bike (took it out of the box then thats it, been sitting in the room since last xmas) and probably not in a return policy anymore as its about a month and more now, always fancy the sb66c.. Just made up my mind now. Emailed the bikeshop already … The waiting time is a killer. … I presume if the profit margin of the sb66 is significant enough , they would still accept the return.

Arvo”..huh.. An aussie :roll: .. Very far

I have both, and will be selling shortly ks 30.9, reverb 31.6 .. Just waiting email confirmation if my new bike which comes with stealth push through. (Its bike replacement actually)

Reverb is smooth.. Reliability, have no idea yet as just bought last xmas.
Ks i900 ..if only the remote is like joplin design where the mechanism is covered away from sand and mud, would be perfect…bought this last december and has no issues yet..

Then shimano it is.. Its just a question now between slx and xt, i believe there is hardly a difference as reviewed by different users on different forums. Whatever is cheaper.. Thanks to those who reply the thread. And thanks to the one who pointed me to rosebike as well :)

..so.. As i understood.. Worth the change (upgrade) right? … (Hopefully the future buyer of my elixirs wont find this thread :roll: )

Thanks for pointing this out mate, for some really strange reason never been on this rosebike website before :roll:

..just get fat, save you monies and time :P

Or look for shops you could demo

I wanted to get this one

I dont think i can flip the lever on this one.

Ow, im speaking about a reverb.. But :x £133 gravity dropper should do it :(

This is a very bad joke as ive just bought in bikediscount.de this morning for £180

You read instruction manual? 8O

I sold a bike just 2 months ago, if he comes back to me now because he discovers a crack on the bike.. I would tell him politely if he wants me to put a crack on his skull too.. 2 months is a very long time for a 2nd hand deal… Report the threats to your local authorities and let him know that the threatening has been reported.

Bump

Not signing a new Contract for my job as it would disrupt my bike time and hours to my full knowledge that im gonna get redundant of my action.. Believe it or not.. Wasnt bother at all.. Dont know why till now :roll:

For those who doesnt know how to swim at all? Do we get valid excuse not to rescue in the event like this? (Just asking, i would still yell HELP in moment like this though, best i can do)

So you mean we just need to suck it up? :x

When is this 5p increase again?

1) buying 1 year carpass in cannock saves me a lot of money

2) cannock is full of orange bikes … And i want one :roll:

3) 1st hour in the morning of the weekend is not a good idea to ride.. Let other riders ride first to clear out the slime that builds up over the week on rocks and boardwalks :P

Definitely worth the extra, however the extra strap at the leg kinda short.. So i bought some velcro and sew it on.. It must be just me having huge leg :(

I can actually move the mech by hand no problem.. Last time i sorted this out moving the mech by hand while tightening cable tension , this time though presents different problem as it reach max limit out on biggest chainring.. Amd i want it more to be moved out couple of mm .. So the chain wont rub.

Cheers all, will try moving while adjusting screw.. Which is weird.. Defeats the purpose isnt it ? :roll:

Screw doesnt seize, even took it all off and clean it.. Just wont budge even an mm when turning any screw either ways

@andyl .. Yah was meaning performance mostly.. And fits.. 15mmqr and 15maxle basically the same right?

How obvious?

An XS yeti 575 would fit mate, mrs just 5’2 and suits her well

Sherwood pines “the kitchener” a good place to build confidence for beginners, nothing technical, fast flow red trail.. Not so much climbing too, or descent for that matter. .. Well placed trail direction. Amenities great. .. You probably cant find better place than this for beginners. .. Muddy this season though.

Thank me later 8)

Thanks guys, and to @nosedive who answer the doublepost. Will try to get new cable and outers if it can sort the problem.. If not.. Well the worst that could happen is i have two perfectly good cables :wink:

Its an slx 10speed, still the stock cable when bike bought last april 2012.. Its a bit dodgy on its shifting last couple of rides.. And kinda got time today to sort it out.. You not gonna suggest i definitely need a new cable right ? :roll:

Is the shifting from smallest to biggest cog not affected by overtight cable? Played the barrel adjuster 1/4 click at a time to loosen it to no avail

Double post sorry, dont know how to delete

Just because you have shiny new orange bike, doest mean you really need a posh coffee machine :P …what next.. What Audi car? :roll:

Has to be 15mm ;( .. But that is a bargain SID though.
