    Won’t be everyone’s cup of tea I’m sure, but at £411 (bike to work), it’s a ferkin bargain! :-)

    Hoping it’ll save my back!

    Pretty much the same at both TBH, middle of the road! :-)

    Teambad (clicky) have a great mix of boys and girls. Great bunch and a good mix of abilities. Bradford based, but get around all over the place, Wednesday night is the regular night ride.

    Here’s Becky, Ali and Amanda

    I realise I walked into that a bit, but there’s no need for sarcasm Brant.

    You’re right, 34T rear, and thinking about it, it’s probably worse when I use the granny/34T rear combo. Which obviously isn’t often being the iron legged beast that I am :D

    I have tried having the stem lower down the steerer, but the front end felt a bit low then. I think I’m a funny shape :-)

    @brant

    16″ frame
    Inline seatpost, saddle pretty much in the middle
    75mm stem (is that short?) with (I think) 8 deg rise
    Mid rise bars
    130mm U-Turn Revs

    I’m 5’7″ and a bit

    I do have quite a few (about 25mm at a guess)spacers under the stem as I kept the steerer quite long.

    Hmmmm?

    Killers in Dublin was top of my gig list for last year. Supported by Bloc Party who were pretty good too :-)

    Bizzarely, I find mine’s all over the place on climbs if I don’t wind the forks down a bit. Hmm, maybe I need to work on my technique a bit! Great bike though, real all-rounder :-)

    What about one of these?[/url] Not cycle specific, but might do the job?

    LOL :D

    That’s got to be deliberate?!

    Yep, for £8 it was a worthwhile investment. Speed increased by nearly 2mbs, and has been more stable since I fitted it.

    He wasn’t shooting, just carrying a rifle (sure it wasn’t a shotgun? Quite hard to get a rifle licence AFAIK). Is it permissive access, or open access?

    2/10 is generous, barely a 1 TBH.

    Has this person done something to you?

    What about white or anothe pale colour (for contrast)? Possibly with an outline on the letters? I’m crap at this stuff too, but I know the red/green combo is hard to read!

    woody2000

    Don’t use red/green for a start!

    Errm

    The whole sub-prime fiasco came out of the US, leaving us in the global financial sh*t that we’re in.

    The US has (had?) the biggest consumer spending power on the planet. There’s a very good chance that the things people buy in the US have a direct impact on our wealth.

    It’s a big country, you could certainly improve your MTB skills there too.

    Let’s just wait and see eh? He could just be an insubstantial self promoter, swept in on a wave of ignorance. OR……..:-)

    The cynic in me says he’ll start doing a headless chicken impression and implode in 6 months, leaving Hilary to take over. Or Oprah.

    I suspect your Osteoporosis is from some other factor – it has lots of causes, some unknown. You’re not asthmatic are you? Long term steroid user?

    At D2D last year they asked for people to switch off back lights IIRC. Don’t have a problem with it myself, as long as they’re not flashing.

    I was sure I remembered you fessing up to being a chap on the “how did you get your username” thread. Eeeh, age, it’s a terrible thing :-)

    Mate of mine sells Cube, they do look like good bikes for the cash

    Personally, I’d have told then to get f*cked and carried on my merry way. They’re the group of users I find more ignorant than any others to be honest. If the bloody thing’s not able to be ridden without getting spooked, then they’re the ones that need to sort sh*t out, not you. A polite "bike behind you, passing on your left etc" should be all that’s necessary. If they ask you to wait, then that’s fair enough, but to think they’ve got some god given right to have everyone treat them with kid gloves is out of order IMO

    And relax. I have my flame proof suit at the ready :-)

    Anyone else think this Viper frame looks very similar? Bit cheaper at £399 mind :-)

    Speak to the Fanylions, they’ll sort you out. Or North Leeds MTB?
