Potentially interested... let me broach the subject with my wife tomorrow

I’ve got a single BB7 calliper and lever you can have for £15?

710mm but cut about 2cm at each end.

31.8mm

Taped with some nice squishy black bar tape.


SOLD

Thanks both. Cheap knock offs it is.

Tempted by these knock off Helios chairs on Amazon for when we bike camp with the kids.

Any reason why it’s worth paying 60% more for the genuine article?

Wise words.

Cool! 80 miler?

Anyone on here doing this event? Would be good to meet up / share a beer,

Another saluter of magpies here. I’ve done it since I was 6 years old and weirdly discovered my wife does it as well a year after we first met.

Now sold

Lauf users - do you think I should persevere with it and try and adapt a bit? Sounds like it’d save my wrists a fair bit.

I’ve just bought a cheap Evoc one from wiggle in a large size that I’m pleased with. It’s very secure and I can fit a tube, mini pump, levers and multi tool in it.

Thanks James. The brother fork is very heavy cro mo and given they market their carbon fork as “an upgrade” I was thinking it’s probably a similar quality to a Whisky No.9 or similar. It would also be nice to shave some weight off the bike too as when loaded it’s a real beast. Almost as heavy as my ...

Cheers Steve. I’ve looked at the redshift stem and it seems a lot of cash - circa 50% of the cost of a fork upgrade.

Given I’ve got a set of carbon bars I’ll give them a go first but was thinking a carbon fork would perform better than steel over bumps. Having researched this now I’m not so sure.

I think the Lauf fork is an amazing product, but a little limited in application. It’s phenomenal on flatter off road surfaces and is well suited to gravel bikes but on an MTB Bouncing off rocks it made me a bit scared at speed.

That’s my fork! Selling as it was very sketchy on the few rides I did with it. Anything rocky and the fork was pogoing all over the place making it hard to steer. Think the Lauf is ideal for gravel and sedate trails, but not stuff with rocks bigger than apples. Stem wise I have a 60mm Thomson. I’ll ...

Owned for about 4 years but used on 5 trips Max - in superb condition.

I’ve moved to a Carradice longflap bag so no longer needed

Looking for £75 including UK postage

Thanks all. I have alloy Jones bars but have just stripped my old bike for sale and had carbon jones on it (had a wild moment). They’re on eBay at the moment but might as well give them a go before shelling out on a new fork.

I’m set up with the saddle pretty level with the bars. It’s more the bumps I think that are causing the fatigue. I have upped my mileage a lot recently though (c.100 a month to c.400 a month) so this might have something to do with it. Does your body get used to it? Feel very stiff and sore now afte...

Hi, been getting out on the trails on longer rides a fair bit recently and I’m finding I’m suffering a bit with wrist / shoulder fatigue. I currently have a Brother Big Bro with steel fork, tyres at a sensible pressure and Jones loops. Brother do a great looking carbon fork for the Big Bro for £299....

I’ll take the spyres if still available please

I bought this frame last spring and built up into an off road tourer with the intention of taking it to France to tow my children around (I also built my wife an identical frame) but then the obvious happened. I’ve since acquired a Brother Big Bro which is more aggressive so have split this for sale...

Sorry ignore that - I thought this was their drop bar bike. Sorry
