I'm still on for this. Am I still OK for a pickup just off junction 63, or am I making my own way there now?

Off on a slight tangent... If I wanted to fit Magura's (just an idea that I'm toying with...), do I need anything else from the brake kit? i.e. Do I need anything more than this to mount them to an Alu bike with standard canti brake bosses?

Probably ;) Has it got power, but just no display? If that's the case, there's normally a key combination to press to make your lappy output to the external monitor port, which obviously only works if there's an external monitor connected. Check your function keys across the top of the...

The SS champs are on in Dalby the weekend of the 6/7th June... Unfortunately, I'm already booked that weekend :(

Sooooooo Tempted.... Must..... resist....

Could well be interested in a Smoke/Dart combo!

I can't do anything during the week because I'm on-call with work... Friday/Saturday/Sunday should be OK if you fancy an easy weekend jaunt? I've got to take the Mrs into town on Saturday morning, but otherwise free. Finally got everything sorted on mine last night... Changed the wheels, got...

And if you're using the the default WEP encryption on your homehub, change it soonest to WPA2. WEP encryption isn't worth sh*t... It can be hacked by anybody with a spare 10 minutes.

Relative newcomer, so don't blame you if you don't trust me yet, but I'm good for anything in the Newcastle/Durham/Sunderland area...

I am, or at least, everything came as a set... Like Anthony says, I'm starting to hijack a bit here, so I'll start a new thread to list all of my woes and to see if people can help me! Cheers. :)

The bike is 2nd hand... I bought it probably 7 or 8 years ago after all of my other bikes were nicked (at different times), but I don't know that much about it. As far as I can tell, all the parts are stock aside from the ones that I've fitted myself, so I don't honestly know about the forks...

Is the cat included? ;)

What do you mean by underside covers? If it's any use, I think I've got a set of 7-speed XT RF+ in the garage somewhere if they're any use?

Cheers Anthony, that all makes sense... You're not the first to say that the rims seem skinny, but I've got nothing to compare them with. Have you got any idea where I could get spare plain washers from? The V's will clearly work if I can just get them close enough to the rim... Christ, I...

The cable was tight as I could get it! In the pics (which were taken before moving all of the washers), the cable was so tight that the angle of the brake arms made them look more like "A" brakes than "V" brakes. If you look in the 2nd pic there, you can see that there's actually no cable...

Just by way of a warning... I'm in the process of changing my brakes around, along with the gears. When I say "change", I actually mean fit the parts and then swear at them a lot when they don't do what you want them to... Notice the ****ing enormous gap between the blocks and the rim...

Another Photographer here... Also an IT geek, with a strong slant towards the network & security side of things...

The trails at Whinlatter are getting a lot of love on other forums at the mo'... Anybody had a play there, cos I was thinking about a weekend over there sometime soon...

You'll have to stick me down as a possible for this please? Can't guarantee anything with my windswept and dynamic life, but I'd certainly like to make it along!
