Out of curiosity I looked at the whippet too , it's literally the ramin in a different material if the figures are correct, I guess there are only so many different numbers that work
Glad I like the orange beast

They certainly would have sold more if it were priced higher, its way more than the sum of its parts and the low price definitely put some snobs off I tried to flog it initially before I decided to sell the jones and it was mint upgraded drive train and other bits and bats and I didn't get one bite ...

There is mate but it seems so close as to not be really any difference if you know what I mean, obviously it will be different, just not a great deal That said apart from the fantastic forks and flexible rear the Jones spaceframe I had wasn't all that different to the ramin if I'm honest, which is w...

I had my jones like that it was 2.35 29er rear and 4.3 surly Edna up front and it was pretty much the same size the previous 3.8 tyre was a bit small , but I reckon a 2.4 rear 4.8 front would be great

Ive used 2.35 and 2.4 on the back on a 50mm rim no problems at all the walls are I bit more exposed and its a little square but nothing bad tbh I'd be tempted to run 2.4 on back and 2.6 on the front when not using two 3.0 just to round the front tyre up a bit

All valid points , I'll dig a bit more but I think they appear similar enough to not need a new one at present tbh

I was looking at the on one rocky road as it looked a bit of a deal but upon comparing on this Website it looks remarkably similar to my ramin plus with 29er wheels on ,in fact using a stem calculator thing is I stick a 15mm spacer in it reduces my reach to the bars by 6mm, ive also got the ebb vers...

I was up at a fire on the moors the other year started by some knobber and this car pulls up and a family get out and start setting up a disposal bbq I asked what they were doing and they were planning on watching the fire get put out while having their tea, unbelievable lol I got the police to move...

If you ever change your mind you know where I live

I so regret selling both my rohloffs I nearly stuck my hand up for it but you beat me Adam lol

The reach is crazy long for a drop bar, as you say may as well just stick drops on a karate monkey

Did it have a rohloff as ive forgotten who I sold mine to lol

Bugger lol didn't see it til today

Can't get the os maps discount to work unfortunately

Never have I wanted to be a Southerner before lol

I prefer the feel of normal gears but I sure do miss my rohloff

The svea ones seem to be worth a few quid on ebay

I may well be interested in this if its a medium but it does look very small for a medium

Cheers that's what I was thinking and hoping to hear lol thanks

I've acquired a specialized pizza rack but the bit that straps it from the fork crown to the top of the rack won't fit as my headtube is oddly shaped, what's that bit called so I can look for other bits, also does it need to be strong or is it more of a safety strap to stop it going into the front w...

Pie monster if you dont have a taker I wouldn't mind trying a cheap bivi bag

It never spits out as much as you put in mate

Cheers Tony it's now in my possession

BTW arkay the lidl or aldi I forget queen margot 3 year old is less than a tenner and quite nice tbh

I had a co-motion one it was very good but it limited choices of bar bags if that's an issue for you mate

You called nick lol I'd love to add it to my list of opened malts Tony if it's still available for pick up . Ps I'm free tomorrow
