Olly's DMO bikes were looking vaguely exciting too. ...

Since I sent out the email I have been inspired by you all with all your understanding and encouragement. Lot...

Re: If there were a UK 'gravel race' ...

200 * 0.001 = 0.2
0.2 * 1609 = 321 metres*

n'est-ce pas?

*edit: I'm told the actual distance may be approximate ;)

Re: The BB 200 Thread

Bad news for me. Had my Niner emd and Specialized Epic stolen overnight from my garage. The Epic still had my Wildcat Mountain Lion harness and Tiger seatpack on it from the BNO so double sadness. :( I do have a 1994 rigid Kona Kilauea on my turbo I can bring with some SB8's lying around. It is tha...

Pics will be out very soon. There might even be one or two Ocelots floating about at the BB200.
Final price to follow, but most likely under that of the competition.

Re: Partial Frame Bags

Our Ocelot partial frame bags should be available soon.
Bottle cage compatibility is something we tried to address.
Other specs include hose port, map pocket and #8 size zip for longevity.
Available in four sizes.

Watch this space :)

Re: Bars

What d45yth said.

Mary's have a funny bend that comes straight off the stem clamp area, and as such can be tricky to bolt stuff too. Carnegie's address this while giving a much more ergonomic angle for your wrists.

Re: Trans Cambrian Way Double?

Would like another go but I would be happy to do it one very long day or with a short bivvy stop. Can't imagine doing it in 12 hours. Was that Dave Buchanan? I think JH's time has been beaten. Googled it just now. Jason Miles and Dave Powell have done it: http://40psi.wordpress.com/2010/08/03/trans...
