Anybody else doing these? I know there's a few on here who like map reading/navigating. It may ease the boredom a bit and is for a good cause, Basically every weekday you get an email containing a PDF copy of a road book with a map. You have to follow the road book til the end and make a note of the...

I've a 98 honda transalp 600 that i rebuilt last year. A suzuki sv650s that i was considering selling just due to lack of room and a beta alp 200 which im hoping to use for things like the TET, classic trials and long distance trials. So far i've only ridden it on a normal trial and found it extreme...

Thanks to Ben for the North face Hooded soft shell. Unfortunately it doesn't fit me either. The fit is a bit strange, the arms are good but the torso is both short and tight, i'd almost guess its a womens cut? Anyway i'm happy to pass it on as the same basis if anyone is interested? The gloves seem ...

I'm interested in the North face soft shell, any pictures and how much delivered?

What model of chain are you using, I thought the mid-higher end ones were stainless?

I've just taken delivery of a big tub of Putoline yesterday.

I'd still be up for this but;

1) i need to get some miles in
2) It probably needs to be nearer march/april which doesn't help with 1.

I have just looked at train tickets though and found one mid April for 16.50

I've a Mk4 but i'm only two short wet rides in so too early to comment really. I did have to move my hook up in the garage as its easily the longest bike i own though.

20% off at Evans, makes the Arkose D3 under £1000 after topcashback. I'm hoping I can get cyclescheme vouchers in time as I don't really NEED a new bike

I spent quite a long while looking at CT90 and CT110's but they were generally old and expensive to get bits for. Moved onto Honda Innova's as they're 125cc fuel injected and have better brakes/suspension. I ended up buying a Beta Alp 200 about a month ago with the intention of doing classic trials/...

I'm having a bit of a want vs need with these, DT Swiss M1900 29 15x100 12x142 wheelset £90

I have one but haven't ridden it yet and don't have anything interesting locally to point it down to test, so need to take it somewhere.

I've noticed with mine it doesn't like the filter clamp nut done too tight. If I back it off a little it works fine but back it off to far and the filter pops out. So slightly loose with a gentle squeeze to pump works best.

How did you get on Andy?

Ghyllside cycles have a salsa deadwood frame in the window 1600 down from 2700. Its a sand sort of colour but not sure on size.

Tesa tape?

As far as Giant go, one of the funnest bike's I've ridden in a long time https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48015388611_6e9cfc37b1.jpg 20190605_212441 by Escape Goat , on Flickr Don't get me wrong i had many a good ride on my defy. I've had a look at giants website and theres lots of overlap but t...

I'm 5'10 and have found similar with most brands. The only road bike I've had was a Giant Defy who tend to do intermediate sizes. I was right in the middle of the range and it fit/felt good from the off. I've since moved onto a GT Grade size 56 and even with a dropper (inline post) and a 80mm 25° ri...

In the Lakes that weekend or I'd be along

Depends what spec the road bike is, how worn it is and how much will transfer to the new frame and forks? I'd probably sell it whole.

I voted no as they just don't appeal to me. I find my 29 x 3 hard enough going at times and have started to down size to 2.6's but after reading your response's and if you think you could move it on without losing to much then there really isn't a lot to lose, and you'll at least get an experience o...

Hi All,

I'm after either some Hope 15mm hub adapters or a 100 x 15 29+ front wheel if anyone has anything?

I wouldn't say no to some Geoff bars either if anyone isn't getting on with theirs.

Thanks,

Rob

I was going to ask for a review of this but I think I know the answer. It's a lot heavier and takes 3x longer than an MSR trailshot and the plastic looks a bit fragile. But i'd guess better filtration and longer filter life. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1X-Pure-Easy-Water-Filter-Purifier-Cleaner-0-1-2...
