Old and Past it

The damper is the only different part, so unless you are servicing that I would think it will be the same. My slides were identical to the trace forks other than the dimensions of the bushes. Servicing the air spring might be different I guess.

They have done YouTube videos and since old skool instructions.

It’s on their website I would paste the link but my phone is being awkward.

Is it not the same as their other forks, unless you are doing an air spring service?

Hambini videos are very interesting, if a bit sweary, on the topic of BBs. He has a whole vid devoted to sram gx.

It’s a medium.

How much alcohol do I need to consume to make my blood toxic to viruses for the duration of the flight?

I’m about to fly to the US for a week. Stuck in LHR, then in an airplane, then in another airport, then mix with hundreds of people from all over the place, then repeat.

Who wants my Flare Max if I don’t make it? Otherwise my wife will likely take it to the household recycling.

Yes. Delicious.

Get the carbon ones.

If you get the aluminum ones you will spend your life regretting it, and eventually getting carbon anyway.

Not sure about 60mm, might be a bit sketchy on a windy day.

I am wondering the same thing. I have recently tried uploading things to an s3 bucket but it’s kind of hard work.

This whole thing is a vehicle for men to express over-attention to detail, desire for order, the pursuit of authenticity and rectitude and the innate male tendency to want to dominate.

Come to Singletrack for the tips on making coffee, stay for the insight into the male psyche….

Exotic forks, no longer in use (26″) but they were fine, and had plenty of abuse.

Aluminium steerer. I would not be shocked if a lot of the failures like that guy in the video were down to over-tightening stems on carbon steerers.

My sister is a published children’s author. It’s pretty brutal by all accounts. PM me and I can ask her.

For commuting I would be tempted to stick with those Shimano wheels. When they get stolen from outside your work, you won’t feel quite so sad (you’ll still feel sad).

I know that if I rode super-light 24 spoke alu rims on my commuter, then I would feel a lot more concerned about all the pot holes I crash through, and the kerbs I hop off and…[Read more]

I only met one person who really truly hated where they ended up (went to Trinity, and was as far from the stereotype as you could possibly imagine).

But I would want to be very sure that a music degree is going to be the right course. Music seems to be brutally competitive.

Do compsci (other courses available), and enjoy the music.

Plastic bottles

I was going to say that as well.

What is it with these things, they wind up in landfill, or the side of roads, and eventually the ocean.

A symbols of our thoughtlessness and arrogance. “The water from the taps taste bad. I could fix the local water supply and provide clean fresh water, or I could…[Read more]

I get held up by cars every day of the week. Selfish, that’s what car drivers are.

Might be able to stitch it back together. Dental floss.

The new 1.6 is 120hp so it’s a little better than the old 105hp one. Given it’s lighter unladen than the s max and galaxy I’d guess it’s probably a bit better.

That’s the one I tried. Compared to the 165hp Galaxy, it feels quite sluggish.

I suspect Ford don’t want to put in a bigger engine, as then people would take it over the Galaxy.

I’m on a my fifth Galaxy, they’re great for carrying bikes.

Bikes go in upright with the front wheel off (29ers). Two bikes is easy, three is OK, with four you start running of space for people.

I did look at an SMax when buying this one but it looked too small.

I also tried a Grand Tourneo Connect, which had enough toys, but the engine was…[Read more]
