    Peculiar stool, no not poop

    Pretty much. :D Would also make feeling drunk on imported craft beer much much cheaper.

    Peculiar stool, no not poop

    Would be better if it made the top spin around.

    Risse rear damper for Santa Cruz Tazmon

    Getting an email response out of Risse is really hit and miss. I also want to get a new shock and some spares. PM me if you are interested in doing a combined purchase to get the shipping down. Phill

    Santa Cruz Tazmon headset problem

    Well done, just what I was going to suggest! What rear shock are you using? Doesn't look like the standard Risse one.

    Eh? my power tools keep breaking!

    Check the voltage where you had the tool plugged in. I know someone who was losing kettles, irons and lightbulbs because of a too high voltage (>253vac), and I guess too low a voltage could overheat a motor.

    Lightest factory MTB?

    How much of an illusion is created by the nice and fat in your hand alu tube compared to a skinnier steel one? I think you need some real facts before you can be too envious!

    Re: Its that time of year again! Gates 2016! 24/07/16 Sunday It's gonna be a sticky one. How about doing it backwards so we get to the pub around 12, then leaving back the way we came many hours later?

    Recommendations for 're-mapping vectra cdti150 2008.

    www.vectra-c.com is the place to go for any advice. There is software readily available to switch things off (called Tech2 I think). How many miles does it have on it? DMF, injectors and EGR all lasted around 100k on mine, swirl flap linkage only about 50k but was easy and cheap to repair...

    Flat ground top speed

    50mph on the flat, but that was after dropping off the moors down the Ringinglow Road into Sheffield! I remember sprinting head to head on the flat with some mates when I first had a bike computer aged about 14. Peering at the display through the darkness and sodium lights, I boasted I'd hit...

    If you were looking for one (just one) piece of Brit metal -

    Re: Re: That will be the GT6. :xmas-wink: I'd love a Roberts in team Peugeot colours and used to lust over the Louis Colella tandems. But because it was the first British cycling success I saw, I would part with a kidney for a carbon fibre Lotus TT bike.

    What chainstay protectors you use

    USE shock post cool?

    Whether they work depends on your riding style and terrain. On long rides over rock hard, lightly textured fields where tractors and horses have been I find they are great. All the comfort of a big squishy tyre but without the drag and poor handling on the road. Obviously no substitute for...
