Re: Pillows

Just read on the other forum about the guy who buys a loaf of bread in the evening to use as a pillow. In the morning he proceeds to chop and form his pillow into the brekkie sandwiches with a few spare left for the day ahead. Come the evening hours he visits local bakery looking for his next headre...

Re: Rohloff mated to drop bars...

I appreciate all the replies! :-bd Tons of great feedback, many thanks! I've acquired some cheap old Apex and Rival 10sp shifters, I guess that might be the easiest way to convert once I've bought the Rohbox from SJS. The GB shifter looks very nice indeed, I'd be tempted to try it with the Thorn bar...

Rohloff mated to drop bars...

HELLo, Hope you're well and enjoying the great outdoors as I type this from the work's bunquer... I'm planning to use my Rohloff with the drop bars, ideally I'd have the shifters incorporated to the STI levers. I'm aware of the Gebla Rohbox as well as Cinq Shift:R . I've seen some reviews regarding ...

What size are the Spesh bars, Wake stem and the Jack Wolf jackets please? Is the JW jacket a 2-in-1 thing or separate items at £65 each?

Re: Angle Adjusting Headsets

I can't say I've felt the difference on the hardtail, perhaps a little bit on the Horse but there's a chance I've imagined it. Next time I'll get a 2* slacker or a frame with a more suitable geometry. :...

I have another one on my MX since March and I can't fault it - it's quite comfy and at the same time, despite my best efforts, doesn't flex or judder badly.

I agree it's on the shorty side in terms of ETT but I guess that was done so it could be used with the drop bars. It's not a trail shredder but I'd also want it to be a bit roomier as I'm built like a gibbon. I'll try to get more info tomorrow...
