YMMV

Do some local loops at night and experiment.

Personally I can ride local lower lower than unfamiliar as I know what's coming. I would advise riding unfamiliar terrain to see what works.

Good Light that as I have one as back up ( the bracket alone costs a tenner as I lost mine ) and it's run times are pretty good and it's a good spread for both off and on road . Not quite exposure standards but it's insanely cheap at that price.

Aren't stem bolts all 4 mm as standard ?( Unless you just mean water bottle bosses in which case ignore ) Strength well it's smaller so weaker but metal is incredibly strong You can read the difference here. For cycle applications and holding a bottle or rack a M4 will be fine probably but bigger wi...

Sent you an email with pics of what I have

Don't start at that ressie as you end the day with the steepest climbs

PS happy to do a guided ride of Gatesgarth, Nan bield and Garburn for those who want to take their bike for a walk on any of the dates

So does a 530 if you ignore it's advice as to how to get back on the trail even when back to ...

IQ , it's a generous guess

Could well have been them and my error

remember when li ion batteries started and we were all advised to charge then in tins and fireproof bags
I wonder how many bikes were modded?

Did garburn a few weeks ago and it looked more weathered rather than resurfaced.

Next (big) ride planned for the 3rd and it would be wise to take some headlights.

Better to take your climbing legs

I am only taking an exposure joystick and not expecting to be out in the dark.

You finished, had an adventure and learnt a lot but yes you need tougher tyres.

Dont think I carry that much in winter and yes vary it for the trip ranging from I will probably not die with what I have [Sleeping bag , air mat, bivvy bag tools.] all the way through to I could survive sub zero temperature and a day without a supply stop. I genuinely love the way we all do the sam...

Warbird owner and I love mine , good for road and 44 mm tyres ( with mudguards ) . Also never tried a cutthroat

well that was eventful Local quick one as time crunched again and about 12 ish i was " discovered" by 4 youths off their head on mushrooms who had just been to asda to buy a tent and had brought their duvets with them- i dont think it was a well thought out plan on their part. I explained ...

Sneaking one in currently ...seems weird to camp in daylight just getting serenaded with the disk chorus
