I have only one comment on this from my limited experience. I find I can have the same freehub body for years and years with either 2x or 3x setups. Since getting a 1x setup, I am getting through freehub bodies at a rate of one every 500km. Maybe I am just unlucky or my hub body itself is "out&...

The sealant will only work from inside-out, so pouring sealant on the outside of the tyre wont help! You need to get the sealant you have inside the tyre, to be covering the hole (cant watch the vid as in work). Tip and shake the tyre so the sealant can get to the hole and it should seal if it is on...

I finally understand why folk come into the bike shop - with a bike that would be cheaper to replace, than fix all the problems - spend big money on cheap bikes. I occasionally work in my LBS and we have no end of folk dragging in bikes of various vintage that a basically, shagged. You try to tell t...

I have had a go on one at Maindy Velodrome* back in the 80's, on the banked concrete track. It certainly entertaining and a technique to master. My most abiding memory was respect to those who used to race these machines, back-in-the.day. Would I ride one in the UK now away from the track, on the ro...

Just an idea for a cloth patch I have just knocked up in literally 5 minutes - could get some made if any interest?

Anyone want to sell or have for sale - the small accessory pack that goes on the Ortlieb handlebar pack (pictured below)? Allways prefer to get second hand if I can, otherwise a trip to the LBS.

Towel has been brilliant - the fluffy dice (now thankfully devoid of its "fragrance") hangs in my sons bedroom, I have 2 x thermal mugs, one in Norway (in front of me now) and another in the car at home, again brilliant bits of kit. All other items sadly lost or used to destruction. I must...

Hope F20's here

Carbon doesn't like "point loading" and I know of a few carbon frames that have failed in a similar way to what you are describing (something that can sway like your mud hunger) cable tied (how thin are you cable ties?) and failures occurring. Carbon is only as good as the glue holding it ...

Having been solo in north Africa many times before (all pre "Arab spring") its ... umm... North African ... but that is a good thing! I doubt you will get any trouble and all the advise on here is spot on. Yes the kids can be a pain, yes the beggars/guides/lowlife in and around the port ar...

Travers Prong forks still available

OK so:
1. How much?
2. Boost or non-boost spacing?
3. Axle included?
4. Steerer length?

Thanks

. Anyone else ever think along similar lines or am I out there on my own on this one....? No you are not alone in this. But like many others, I have also come to the conclusion that a drop bared mountain bike is the way to go (for me). In the UK we do not have endless expanses of dry dirt roads (wh...

Titanium can and will crack Well, you would buy a Lynskey.... Im on my 5th Ti frame and not managed to break one yet. i won't tuch a Ti frame from a mass produced company..

29+ (Trek Stache) was a right laugh and wonderful to ride BUT I could not get a wheel set to stay round/true no mater what I did. Just too much mass for rocky Cwmcarn style riding and they weight of bikepacking in rocky trails (for me). 650B+ (Trek Rosco) fantastic ride and overall the most fun on a...

The only things to remember are: 1, Do not over fill the canister being refilled (always weigh and right the weight of the canister on the bottom when you buy it new - so you know what weight "full" is). Weigh the cylinder during filling (good squirt - stop - weigh - more gas - stop - weig...

I have one but it was only £14 posted from the bloke who makes then in South Korea... who it would appear no longer makes them. So sorry, no help at all.
