Not quite what you asked buy I run a GX Eagle mech with an 11 speed shifter and Hope 10-48 cassette. Works a treat.

Only complaints are GX mech build quality is like the old X9 (rubbish) and there’s a tonne of play already. Had to replace the 14t jockey wheel also due to the crap v1 design by SRAM which cause the chain to jam.

Left – prefer the weight of the bag to be pulling me to the kerb and not into the road.

My GX jammed in a race with the old style design.

Fixed with this

Shame SRAM silently fixed the problem and never admitted the design flaw.

A bit over your budget but my Hiace in the classifieds

I use a sram GX eagle mech with my hope 10-48, works a treat with 11sp sram shifter

Sauzi d’Oulx. Way better and just down the road. Montgenevre worth a trip also but only ridden the bike park trails at Bardonecchia I’m afraid.

Try Strava or trailforks for unofficial stuff

People who’ve ordered a new mech that came with the new jockey wheels – where did you order it from?

I’m presuming this is a 2018 model but nowhere seems to distinguish it from the old design, presumably at SRAMs request as they won’t want to admit they got the design wrong.  Looking for X01 as my GX has gone baggy in only 6 months of use.

Edit: My question answered on page 4…

Eagle needs to be cheap for all the times when the chain gets jammed at the lower jockey wheel and the mech explodes when you try and pedal.

I’ve got a medium “fast red” BFe 26 that will be going in the classifieds shortly if you’re interested

Great bike but just bought the latest 650b BFe

Who did you do your warranty through?

Mine just went via CRC and SRAM and they didn’t want to know saying it needed a service.

Now looking at £100 through TFTuned

Same thing happened to mine, rubbish design, never had any issues with my previous generation Reverb. Mine disintegrated into shards of metal in my frame.

Warranty were having none of it, so looks like an expensive service.

Improved performance and durability in all conditions

Bollocks.

Anyone know if the Sunday sport riders can practice on the Friday?

Email reads like it’s just sprint and enduro who can practice which is a bit crap for my GF if she can’t ride with us on Friday

We will not have timed transition times or seeded start times, without these the races have a more ride with your mates feel. Personally I feel this is important. We all want to have fun and ride with our mates with a fair bit of banter thrown in. The feedback from the riders this year totally supports this format.

Personally I don’t agree that a ‘national’ series should be run this way. There are plenty of ‘regional’ events for the ‘ride with your mates’ crowd.

I think UKGE had the format pretty much dialed. The only thing I would change is that your seeding time doesn’t count for the overall race time, but you get points for seeding that count towards the series. This way your race weekend isn’t ruined by a mechanical/crash, which is a real downer Saturday night.

One of the reasons I loved UKGE was not just riding with my mates, but making new ones. Riders you qualify near at each race that you might not get to know as well otherwise. UKGE had both, you practice with your mates on Saturday, and then get into race mode on Sunday. I’ve just come back from the PMBA and one of the things I struggled with was getting into the right mindset, am I racing or just pottering about in the woods? Turns out I was crashing, anyways…

Seeding and start times also spreads out the racers. I spent a lot of time queuing for stages on Sunday and it’s also pot luck as to who you have in front of you. I want to be going into a stage thinking about my lines, not about where I might catch the guy in front, or get caught by the fast lad behind. Either way, both the passer and person being passed lose out.

A national series needs to be competitive, and I think seeding and start times gives you that with less frustration. Just keep the qualifying as points like DH.

Just my two-penneth.

No, I stick by my point that I think he’s a cock, but I don’t for one minute underestimate the achievement of winning the tour.

I’ll pull my tongue back from the inside of the side of my mouth…

He should stick to the track and quit moaning.

He won the tour on the time trial with Froome dragging him up the hills and now starts crying when Sky pick a team to try and win rather than out of ‘loyalty’.

When the going got tough in the Giro he went home crying and he milked every minute of his ‘fame’ when it suited him. He should drop the beard, forget about Rio, and put his energy into helping younger members of Team GB realise their goals, rather than having a last hurrah at the Olympics and going home with a bronze.

He’s done a lot for British Cycling and I recognise that, just reading his books and hearing his interview’s I just can’t warm to the guy.

Good – us modest Yorkshire folk have been banging on for years how great Yorkshire is, now the whole world knows!

Bad – the bloke directing his wobbly kid into the middle of the road and oncoming cars in Ilkley so he could overtake the queue of cyclists on the inside of the road at the lights

Ugly – the amount of people who travelled for miles, camped and waited for hours to experience the TDF roll by, only to watch it on a screen a few inches wide and holding their hands and arms in the way of the riders in the process! I guess they don’t want to arouse suspicion with the party by not looking at the Telescreen.

Your BT Broadband is most likely using ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) technology.

The key part of that is asymmetric, in the context of home broadband it means that the downstream is typically a much higher line rate than the upstream as most home Internet usage is downloading data. It wasn’t designed for much upload so doesn’t work well in the new ‘cloud’ era. WiFi isn’t the bottleneck.

70KB/s is ~0.5Mb/s so sounds about right for ADSL.

If you want faster you’ll have to go for BT Infinity or similar…

So just this one then?

Already have the 2×10 with 38t, found the above on CRC but been sold out of the 38t for ages and can’t find alternative

Option 3, use powerline networking to place another access point in the dead zone.

Assuming you’re using 2.4GHz, remember to put each of your access points on non-overlapping channels such as 1, 6 and 11.

You can keep the same SSID which keeps things neater, although you won’t get seamless roaming. The downside of this method is one of your devices might get ‘stuck’ on the access point with the poorer signal. You can tweak the roaming aggressiveness of your WLAN adapter but this doesn’t always work. Alternatively use two different SSIDs, still on non-overlapping channels, such as ‘MYHOUSE-DOWNSTAIRS’ and ‘MYHOUSE-UPSTAIRS’. This way you can manually connect to the access point with the best signal rather than relying on windows or your WLAN driver to do it for you.

Also, check you are not trying to compete with any signals from your neigbours, download inssider[/url] and avoid any channels with strong signals nearby.

Hope this helps

Middle ring from my 2012 if that helps.

Its shite, I’d change if it weren’t for the hassle.

I’ve tracked down some lift times via Google translate…

Charge people for missed appointments to avoid cuts?

First stop, CCNA Routing and Switching. It’s the bread and butter of networking. Then if you find a more specific area of networking you’re interested in you can go down a more specific route.

R&S will serve you best to start with.

All Sheffield from my student days..

Urban Gorilla – various venues, good nights in Plug
Remedy at Po Na Na, Justin Robertson resident
Steem Wednesdays at Bed
Blessed on a Monday at The Republic
Disco 2000 on Thursdays at The Republic, Tom Wainwright
Insomniacz at Europa – dirty
Delve Deeper on Thursdays, can’t remember the club name

Others of note, The Cross & Turnmills

You sure that was Joe Barnes? He was between the tapes the whole way down!

I had LSD induced paranoia after someone put a knife to my throat when I was on it at the age of 16. This paranoia and depression lasted 2 years. At 18 I did my first pill, this brought me out of my 2 year hole and things have been ok ever since.

No they haven’t, yes they have, dunno. Yes, maybe. What did you say about me?

Really though, if respected, it did me some good.

Another vote for Crosstrax ‘ere

Sensi Soccer

And again. What he ^ said…

Mucky Nutz for me, keeps more shite off the stanchions and is interchangeable between all my forks.

The RRP is fork specific, holds on to more shite, and can rub under crown on the tyre giving an off-putting buzzing noise.

And it’s cheaper.

What he ^ said…

She was running tubeless, she rolled the tyre off the rim whilst ripping the crap out of a berm on the jumpy bermy bit.

She certainly showed plenty of the men how to ride at CyB, legend.

Singlespeeders – How many teeth did you run on the back?

I was being a tight Yorkshireman and refused to buy a bigger cog for one event, but paid the price for running 16t. Still had a great day but walked more than I’d liked…

I’ll be there and racing, the track is fairly pedally and not too technical which is all in the spirit of mini-DH and the young rippers who get a chance to race. If you want a big steep techy DH course then there are plenty of choices around the country for that kind of thing.

This is about supporting a good cause, having a laugh and raising a positive profile of biking and racing in general, hopefully inspiring a few kids to get into racing along the way.

Should be a top doo…

Singlespeed followed by a good dose of MTFU.

Not sure if its the same one but we did Khybers which had a rope climb down feature. It also featued a mosquito infested swamp and lots of fallen trees which marred an amazing trail.
