Ah you got ME thinking now! :oops: Lol, u have the option to not use SIS for now by flicking the small tab lever on the xt shifter. Certainly 8 and 9 speed isn't compatable with each other, i assumed thats the same for 7 and 8 speed. But then 7 and 8 speed chains are the same width so...

I always say to myself if i start going bald i'll just shave it off and be done with it. Just the initial shock will be hard to deal with but after a few months it'll just seem normal. Happens to many many people, eh Scarefacexxx :lol:

Well this may be a totally stupid question but i'm baffled(not difficult :lol: ) I accidently posted a reply twice, and hovering over the edit option on the right it shows up 'edit' and 'delete'. But after clicking on it there is no delete option/button anywhere! I can edit the post till...

accidently posted twice :oops:

Ok, i'll be brave and answer. :lol: Ur using 8 speed shifters with a 7 speed cassette. Did that not strike you as being the problem? For every click at the shifter a 7,8 or 9 speed shifter pulls the cable 'x' distance, which is exactly what the distance is for the matching 7,8 or 9 speed...

Seems we're all echo-ing the fact your seat height may be a little low. So i'd def start there. Agree with Anthony on increasing the stem length is generally not the best way to sort this, same as fitting longer forks, you get a 'wierd' feeling when you ride it as you've upset the frames...

Shame, really wanted to do that as well :lol: Someone was looking over us that day as we didn't have a ticket(literally :lol: ) or a wheelclamp on the car despite being parked in the carpark for over 4 hours! Hahaha, 1 up on the parking wardens :P

Enjoyed today :D

Well if you ask me, your saddle should be set higher as your not maximising your power when pedalling- set it so your leg is almost straight when the flat part of your foot is over the pedal axis pivot point. You'll find afterwards your leg is then only slightly bent when outstretched with...

Looks a good idea, is it one size for all or do they come in varying sizes?

Well me and Scarfacexxx will be there, prob just after 10am(yawn). 1 car with 2 bikes on the roooofff!

You don't really have a choice which bike to take wish the lotto was as easy to predict! Hahaha

Ooh, me and Scarfacexxx may make an appearance. Like everyone else tho, i can't decide which bike to bring :roll:

Wow. Nice find. Haven't seen that design before. Gets around the space issues A2Z suffer from.

Just heard today they've got them back in. I'm in need of cone spanners and chain whip tool. Both of which they have included in the 35pce kit b

I'm looking to convert my Attitude comp to IS as i want to fit my XTR BRM 965's calliper instead of the original parallel fitting Hayes calliper thats standard on there at mo. Can't understand why A2Z can't make the bracket so it is a bolt on affair, job done??? :roll: I work in engineering...

Hahaha :lol: yeah i knew someone would come back with something like that :D I guess i do, my time is split 95/5 with 95% spent working on them, the 5% is how little i actually use them! I gotta call it stop tho, 10 is an awful lot when i ran out of space to keep them at 8! I just can't part...

sry for late reply, but i've now built up a wheel using bits i'd purchased.

Oh the fun, a bargain ebay purchase of a pair of mavic rims/stout hub wheels turned out not to be a bargain when they 'forgot' to mention in the advert they were 2 front wheels :roll: So i thought, 'hay do's' i'll but this 24 seven singlespeed rear hub on the for sale thread on retrobike and...

Ok, gonna have to count me out on this, can't quite stretch to that smaller frame
