I try to manage the level of discomfort I'm willing to endure

Sometimes its a lot, sometimes not so much. I pack accordingly.

If I get it wrong, suck it up or ride on.

For info, sram 10 speed links are re-usable too. you just gotta know the trick with the pipe grips

plenty of vids on youtube

PC1051 on the 1x10 here (e*thirteen 34-T ring). 2000+ miles on the ring, 1000+ miles on the chain. I run an e*thirteen guide to keep the chain where it should be. Very few problems. I've heard good things about Blackspire and North Shore Billet rings but not used them myself. Greetz S. Actually, my...

I've done lots of miles on raceface t/t or n/w or whatever they call them with Sram Chains. PC1091 chains have dont lots of miles, using new ones on new and part worn rings. Also have a new 1051 chain on a very worn race face 30t n/w and it works fine, though seems a little noisy. I do use clutch me...

thats probably true zippy

Bit of a long shot I know but does anyone know about or could point me in the right direction for adult tricycles. The reason I ask is because I have a disabled friend who is interested in buying one. He is limited to a budget of £400 max. For this price the only trikes we can find are mostly off A...

also, have a read.

edit.
The summary of that article for me is.... use experience and dont tension stans as much

I'm always very wary about rims with no eyelets. Stans specify a much lower max spoke tension than many rims. Its something decent wheel builders will know or check. Or if you're building yourself you just need to be aware. I've done thousands of miles on arch's, never a problem with the rim. Just ...

What a mindbogglingly silly idea.

Fantastic way to panic anyone connected to it at home!

I was all by myself, I started from blue john, headed over mam tor, which took ages. Knee deep in places, cant see the path at all. I was going to head down to castleton but since its not all that well known to me I dropped down the edale side. Got a bit further on and couldnt see the bridleway at a...

Waste of time out there anyway. Snows reet deep

is anybody showing up?

shouldnt at least one of you be at work?

gonna be a snowy one...

I prefer single compartment too. storing vertically seems to work better for me.

Leave them in my car while we ride gents.

It was originally due in the last quarter of last year, now... not sure. Although we expect an update soon we dont have one yet.

I would hope not too long but really don't know. 2015 is a safe bet I'd think.... I'll update here as soon as I know more, or feel free to get your mate to contact sam.

i would expect that to complicate things greatly in my experience.

That was quick. posted it at about 14:30 yesterday.

No worries on hassling. At the moment, we dont really have the numbers. I've been leaving matt alone due to the xmas / new year etc. Now all thats over I'll have a chat about numbers and requirements and lead times. I will also sort out an order deadline if theres enough of us to join in. For info, ...

top effort from minipips.

Hes cracking lad, and a cracking ride. Well done to him.

Thursday night is the best I can do.

Wednesday evening ride anyone? I have never ridden across the newly opened froggat / burbage edges.. so fancy a start somewhere to suit. Can someone suggest a start point? and a 2 hour ride? If not, I'll make something up and update here no worries. If we could start a little earlier, great, if not ...
