I saw the Kona explosive in green (thought it’s been a while since anyone has done that…) my idea is ruined!

It’s a nice colour-enjoy (drat!)

I’m renting mine to students if I can’t sell.

But I’m happy to stay In Bristol for a few yrs.

If I sell cheap then I’ll buy cheap.

WTF was he thinking? Don’t answer that.

To$$er… 😈

Lesson learnt for those who never insure their items.

All you folk predicting house prices.

Any chance you could tell us the lottery numbers for this Saturday?

Nobody knows.

Could be up or down-depends whether I’m a selling or buying troll. 😈

Nice car, cool plate.

Did this last year and chose new bont race x-lite.

Nah Blues faster, unless its Ferrari red of course.

😀

So a 71 yr old rode his bike through a mall?

Don’t care about his age-he could hit someone e.g fragile health.

Weird, mine are XTR and the resin is yellow. Did a google search and the SLX is as how AndyP described but it has the part numbers on the back of my Titanium plates.

Usually run resin in the front and sintered on my rear.

Resin is a bit yellow and sintered is a bit grey metallic.

Google images (sorry I’m lazy to paste 2nite)

Just ordered a new caliper after looking at prices for kits.

Will stick this threadless one to an old bike one day using longer bolts to the rear of the frame.

Thanks for the tips.

I think £30 for a thread kit and £60 for a new one was best for me. Bloody bills. 😈

They’d lose viewings and eventually their ads plus they’d pay tax etc.

Can they wait till I have sold my gear first?

Awww @pics how cute.

Still wouldn’t have any-dirty diapers!

Probably be 36 knowing me. Rather buy that Porsche on the classifieds!

Little things that annoy you a lot.

Hmm sorry can’t think of any. Life is short to waste!

Ok the ppl moaning on this thread annoy me ye feckers stop moaning.

Pics of other half? 😈

You’ve emailed Sram technical?

Strangely I have also been admiring tourers…getting older?

I have a rear rack and guards to fit on Wed..oh dea…

Hey you can breathe better without a rucksack and not on your back, cycle in the rain due to m’guards.

Nah-just common sense. -Who wants a sore back and a wet muddy backside after a ride?

I never watch Tv.

Never seen Big Brother, or dancing on ice or X-factor.

Try making money or improving oneself instead of being a potatoe.

Or service your bike while watching Bloomberg finance?

Do you have buildings or contents insurance? sorry if misread.

Get a dog.

@TandemJeremy -yep They make Post mount gear and use brackets to convert it to IS but it depends on the grouping you use. And you’re right about cheese-I guess it has to be light from Aluminum but if it wasn’t for the dodgy piston it would be fine as the rear is perfect-never fettled-yet!

@coatesy -I’d never flog without telling them or if it wasn’t strong enough I’d sell it for spares or use the seals etc. Safety first-me or the buyer! I would never sell a knackered thread caliper-morals y’know!

Because some of us have standards, respect and values.

While the others hide behind a screen knowing they can’t be punched out.

If someone has the energy to insult you-ignore them.

Treat others how you wish to be treated.

😈

£70? oh $hit I’m never buying XTR again after this weekend.

Ride to work if not raining-mud guards 2B fitted on wednesday…

Rode today on roadbike to shop for single speedstuff.

2 mtbs in lounge needing 1 caliper and **** fork.

Yeah I’m gonna post on here-I don’t ride 12 hrs everyday -gotta recover or do something while at work!

Fantastic free kick. 😈

Baskets!

Get an alarm-they always come back snooping.

Matt earler testing his new home security:

August

I use a low power specific bike torque wrench and sometimes hand tight (6Nm).

Old? it’s an XTR 975 TJ on Reba both 2007>.

I should have have got post mount.

£20 is cheaper than £60 -cheers for the info.

Report him.

He didn’t care about you, he just didn’t want to lose his no claims therefore he still regards cyclist as pieces of poop.

Well done for controlling your temper-don’t own him-it’ll stop you getting certain jobs.

Plenty of witnesses and loss of customers.

Email or phone.

Expect them to say sorry order sent (like Wiggle).

They need a cancellation section.

Thing is they and every other business hope that you keep the order.

:O(

Fork seems fine. It’s the caliper threads.

Normally I am quite experienced and good with mechanics just some bad luck.

Stripped and serviced my road bike-no probs.

Bloody fork and brake left me without a xc club ride too.

Sorry, it’s an IS mount

and it’s the Brake caliper

(Top bolt turning and little bits of thread on my shoes!

Been quoted £65 for a caliper.

If the helicoil service costs half of that then I’d buy the caliper.

i had the same issue with a pair of p2s. Ask for a replacement if there are no obvious signs of damage they should replace them. If not you have a perfect weapon to own them with, even though it doesn’t sound as good as owning them with bombers

Last night I would have been tempted to own them for satisfaction. 😆

No sign of damage, just signs of odd casting when examined with a front wheel.

Dam I’d asked him to sign my Zaskar as I nicked his bike…

Thats a track type.

Just be careful -I’d use one that is fully secure but then I can lock rings on a free hub type.

Can’t you a screw on for your hub?

Thanks for the advice everyone.

(looks as thought the whole right leg (bike drive side) is bent out and facing inwards like a incorrect moulding at the factory.

Had one of those days that everying could go-went wrong.

Cove Stiffee 69er limted edition to pay plane ticket to see long distance GF.

Biggest regret ever.
