Re: Todays ride

Nice one V. I love where you can ride your bike into get work/choose done. I've just picked a couple of home visits at York (40 miles from me) for next week. So that should interesting if I manage to ride there and back. Though if I catch the train then most of my wage will go on that (£22.50 per vi...

Re: Todays ride

Lacking of motivation and/or time or determination. I started up this little competition https://bearbonesbikepacking.co.uk/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=324439#p324439 to try and defend my light (not yet bought) to push me into action. On day 2 of consistent riding today so hopefully its working. Only 21 ...

Re: 21 x 21 Exposure light challenge!

If anyone saw this and wondered about entering. But couldn't due to lack of notice. Feel free to start today instead - if like me you lack motivation/time and need something to aim for - and day 1 (yesterday) can be had for free. I'm cheating a but cos I'm wearing my 100% gloves acquired from Allen ...

Re: 21 x 21 Exposure light challenge!

Oh... Ignore the Strava bit. General reports from people who don't use Strava will do. It's mainly a self motivating exercise but why not fight for it (Exposure rear light), hey :cool:

21 x 21 Exposure light challenge!

Idea is simple. Every day you go out and ride at least 21 miles without any significant coffee shop stops. First one to complete the set of 21 days (sorry. Strava or some form of recording the event required) also wins a rear Exposure light. USBc chargeable and all round a good egg (or, light). Othe...

Re: Website problems?

Not sure if its related but earlier in the week my messages service stopped working. Kept shutting down. (Soft) reset everything but still the problem persisted. Had to do a factory reset of the phone and now its back to generic annoying settings and another of files lost.

Re: how to convert 142mm x 15mm DT Swiss 350 rear 6 bolt hub to boost standard!?

For completeness of information: So I split the front wheel with the DT Swiss boost hub (M1700 27.5). At some point it will want building into the front 29er wheel as thats a Bontrager hub and who has them longer term :smile: That rim I can locate but lost the hub!!

Re: rear wheel dilemma (boost/axle stuff)

Watch this space ☺️ I will although it seems a cr@ppy idea. :lol: :lol: We all love in a land of confusion. To be honest, with the M1700 Boost Hub (yes, its 27.5) I couldn't be bothered trying to figure out spoke lengths as my Wheel builder book is too old to have needed to go into that. Plus, Alle...

Re: rear wheel dilemma (boost/axle stuff)

Another option I suppose is to get a bit of a mullet setup going on. Not sure how we'll the geometry of the Santa's Cruz Highball would take it though as its supposed to be a 29er!

Yes, good point and I guess it wouldnt be a bad thing as long as it didnt start looking like YT. An ad a minute or whatnot.
