I'm on the lookout for a speed sensitive damper for a pair of 100mm bombers as mines ceased if any happens to have a knackered pair of forks with a decent damper.

Re: I've normally had small gaps in the past that's needed a couple of shims but this one is going to take a dozen for each bolt.

Simple problem; IS brake mount plus IS calliper equals a gap: Any ideas what's up? I've lost track of the number of bikes I've built over the years and I've never seen anything like this, I'm guessing I need a spacer and they're no longer available? Anyone got on going spare? For those that...

Re: Yep they still bounce, I went for bright green, grey and white as they are the colours of my mates business: https://instagram.com/p/BC5kclXluF9/

I decided to build a stool out of an old pair of Z5 bombers and an arch of either a pair of Z1 or Z2 bombers:

I want to build a stool for my mates new business out of an old set of green suspension forks, given the nature of his business they need to be suspension fork as opposed to ridged forks and due to the company's colour scheme the need to be green, however they don't need to work and they don't...

As per the title really, I've seen 32 hole and 32 hole but I'm not sure if I've seen a 36 hole, does any know?

Re: Don't know about Dartmoor or the Lakes but I can recommend a couple of guides in the Forest of Dean.

Re: I was never a fan of those filters as you get 147 items in mountain bike, 156 items in road bike and 2557 items in undefined.

Re: Thanks for all the comments, i'll do some experimenting with tyre choice and see what happens, it'll take me a little while mind as I need to get a decent range of logs before drawing any conclusions.

I am very lucky in that my daily cycle to work involves a two mile stretch through the middle of my local trail centre so I get to go biking most days. Now I have two bikes that I alternate between, my Prestige and a Pipedream Sirius (the last of the 26" handrails) and after several months of...

That's the badger

There used to be springs that connected to the seatpost and seatpost clamp which allowed the seat to be lowered and raised back to the same height, kind of like a modern dropper post. Can anyone remember what they are called? As it's rather challenging search for something when you don't know...

OP - What are your plans for the bike once it's built? if it's a rergular ride then go for 3X but if it's more of a show queen go for something a bit more fancy.

Re: Interesting, I was always under the impression that 3X was stronger and therefore better suited to the drive side than 2X

They've opened a cycle republic near me, I walked around it when it opened but couldn't see anything that was for me.

I think one of the biggest issues with stock is changing standards, for example a couple of years back they only had to stock 700c & 26" tyres and tubes now they have to stock; 26", 29", 700c and 650b, which cost more so they can't afford to stock as much of each.

Re: Orange Prestige - Hope Disc Upgrade on Page 7 Well I finally managed to track down a working no.2 rear calliper, I had to buy a complete set of front & rear brakes but it was worth it to get the bike finished. I went for a test ride earlier, gears aren't quite shifting correctly but that...
