Redshift Shockstop Stem. 90mm. £100 vs £150 new. Happy to post, or can pick up in SW London. Cracking bit of of kit in good condition with all elastomers - there is one elastomer currently in the stem. Really improves ride quality - I’m selling because I had a bike fit and was told I needed a longe...

Done 26 hrs 15 mins. That was quite hard..... weather perfect but trails somewhat soggy. Multiple tyre perforations added to the drama.... You and cath ok Bob? Cheers stu and Dee for making such ardour such fun :-bd Impressive time, good to meet you at the Aleppo! Likewise Paul good to meet you. Di...

I have an Anker, I'll stick with them after they replaced my unit that got buggered during a river crossing on that really nasty BB200 before lockdown as a gesture of good will, was open with them what happened and asked if repair was possible?

Impressive time, good to meet you at the Aleppo!

Thank you Stu and Dee for all your hard work and actually putting something as outrageous as this event in this sanitised world

Here's to another go next year

Thank you, Paul

Rigid MTB?

I get so confused with all this lingo

Pretty much yes, I built it on rigid MTB frame with drop bars, didn't know what the hell to call it myself

I did it in one go a couple of weekends ago, bigger grippier tyres would be much nicer.

I did it on rigid adventure bike 29x2" and that was ok

Brilliant video

Fellow Boner Alan Parkinson who I bumped into on last year's BB200 off route is riding it, cap 60

My mate Aidan Allcock also, cap 127

Apologies used link above on the end, booked in October!

How exciting

Are both weekends now sold?

If so can I start the reserve list?

Need to try and get in that first one this time

Same for me, i noticed the product code on the invoice and website was not the same as on the filter that was delivered so contacted customer service on web form. I got an email a couple of days later apologising and they sent the bottle a couple of days after that. I now have a bottle and spare fil...

I'm going to do some trips with our Springer Spaniel this summer too, been doing some biking with her already which has gone well so on to dog bikepacking trips now. Like you we will need to take the tent due to lack of brainpower or self control but the spaniel is even worse 😄 Want to get into bike...

I think I'll give this a go this year

Anyone seen a deal or have anything they've upgraded?

How about a new Downmat lite for £76 https://www.outdoorgb.com/p/Exped_Downmat_Lite_Sleeping_Mat/ or a UL7 Synmat for £106 https://www.outdoorgb.com/p/Exped_SynMat_Ultralite_7_Sleeping_Mat_with_UL_Schnozzel_Pumpbag/ They are tempting! I use a thin, cheap one set the moment inside my hunka bivvy, I'...

Yes, gets it done

I believe indoor is allowed but as Stu said probably defeats the object a bit, that said 500km on a trainer, I'd rather be out in bad weather

Doing the full fat festive 500 audax Bristol again this year, hopefully weather plays ball!

I'll second the Mezcal, have the grey sidewalls in 29x2.6 and really like the mix of fast rolling but good enough all round traction. But as with many things, out of stock for now :roll: Keep an eye on Banana Industries site, they have good prices on Vittoria tyres, when in stock. Got mine for £17 ...

Narrow for the 29 rims, not used that size before, I'd say 2.1 to 2.4? Max clearance is 2.6 i believe

I just ordered a rocky road from planet x also, probably need a new thread for this bike!! Going to convert to drops as i just prefer them and have most of a groupset to swap onto it and will sell the sram eagle it comes with. Any recommendations for tubeless 29" tyres, I'm going to be doing en...
