    Return to Hills Bothy 2- Taking Dad Home to our Mountain

    Re: Return to Hills Bothy times 2 If you're happy for us to join in, then I'd be keen to come along if I can make it. Really enjoyed the trip last year, and this sounds like a fitting and worthy tribute. Even if the need for it sucks... I'd like to think someone would do something like this...

    700c wheels and 29er rigid forks on a 26er (modern)

    do it. Remember seeing someones Kona on here years ago done like that. Might have been running skinnier tyres, but should work fine. BB isn't much higher - a 26" with big tyres isn't too far a 700c with smaller ones, and if you are shortening the fork then sounds good. Only thing is if the...

    Show me your KHS.

    My Montana Pro - picked up cheap on Gumtree and modified with a few bits out the stash in my garage. Actually bought the grips though! Much nicer once the short, high rise stem disappeared. Do like wider bars though - opens up whole new possibilities when it comes to hammering it!

    Pair of folding 26" slick tyres (between 1" and 1.3")

    Think I've got some schwalbe city jets or similar, but might be 1.5s. If you want fast, these look like a good buy at the moment though, assuming they really are 26"... https://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/TYCONSCII ... wired-tyre Si F
