Just had this same issue. Searched allll over online at every option going as I thought the Hope ones were a bit expensive too. Here is a link to all your hub options, click on the one you have and you can get a PDF exploded diagram – LINK

You can definitely have cheaper, many of the online bearing shops have options of both those bearings for…[Read more]

It is a brand new headset out of the box so supposedly the correct spacer ring for the headset.

I shall try tighter fitment, kind of thought too tight would put too much pressure on the bearings and that isn’t great?

I’ve used this stuff for frame protection – Biltema car protective film – seems to be better than the bike specific stuff I tried…[Read more]

Thank you, I found which worked and realised I couldn’t delete the post so just edited to the actual question I wanted to ask 🙂

Caher – Ragnarok looks so crap but kinda keen to watch it as it is filmed on the fjord I live on! Also supposed to be learning Norwegian. Cool connection is that the glacier story in this months STW mag is the same glaciers that are in that series above a town called Odda where it is filmed.

Oh well, then I was standing behind the camera watching Lachlan do some sweet stunts. I couldn’t join in as we left the bikes outside overnight and my seatpost cable froze with the saddle stuck at full height. if you look closely in the 1st photo of that article you can see the saddle right up my a**e.

Any Excuse to Ride is our website, it is quite basic for now as we’re updating it to reflect the change in location for this…[Read more]

I do listen to R4 a lot and enjoy quite a lot of their programs but my Swedish girlfriend doesn’t tolerate The Archers (she doesn’t know what she’s missing!) and other R4 dramas enough to listen to R4 all day to get to the good stuff, hence why I’m looking for some podcasts.

Can’t stand In Our Time any more, I listened to quite a lot maybe 5 yrs…[Read more]

Butcher, that sounds right up my street.

Well thank you, there is plenty to look through there and I’m sure we’ll find something worth listening to.

I don’t have a pic but we used a bunch of old apple boxes sanded up and stacked together. Looked pretty nice.

Pretty clear video here that explains what will happen

I can’t give you a certain answer but apart from what you’ve written the graphics card spec is probably relevant too.

We were there for the Hope women’s race last October and did as Danposs suggests, you might get a bit more wind up there but what a view! Isn’t that what ‘vanlife’ is all about? 😉
