bloody hell, we're dropping like flies! feel better dude. :)

@Splatter Paint yes got to be 9 years! Amazing I was doing 200+ miles a week then!

thanks chaps. so today i got up, had a shower etc, had some toast and relaxed for a bit, had to nip to the shop with my dad to sort the electricity reading (otherwise it would have been a pain) after this i wandered around our street but it had made me tired so i went for a lie down. cut to 6pm...

so that article is pretty firm then, i didn't really deal with them to be honest. if you weren't an orro dealer they didn't have much that you couldn't get similar elsewhere. as always though i'm guuted for the staff

that I-ride, owners of Orro bikes are going pop, just as Bradley Wiggins got one! anyone know anything?

@My_Teenage_Self jesus that sounds mental! i'm on a full on go slow, it's easier to be in bed positionally, i need a sit up chair really, everything we have is less supportive, obvs designed for relaxed positions so i find sitting up in bed easier. i get up though, pace around the house etc...

thanks guys, i appreciate the comments, i've been up and around the house a bit, managed to have some toast, my pills and a shower so i feel a bit better, hopefully each day will progress like this, gradual improvements

ok so a bunch of you knew either by reading it on here or my facebook that i was having cancer treatment, i thought i'd tell you a little about it because i think it's good to know what happens, maybe knowing a bit in the future will help in some way anyway, about 4 months ago, i peed blood...

i am so glad you got this, there is a small part of this bikes story you don't know! this picture was taken a few months ago at my shop, obvs it's the same bike! about a year ago i think, i was down the local brewery with some friends, they are in to bikes but they are mostly a little...

hmm . . . since i started tis thread i suppose i should give you an update. erm . . . i couldn't be bothered to finish it . . . sorry. basically the clockwork sat for a while with me meaning to get to it, then i decided just to have the Rocky Mountain Solo i had in stock for myself, the main...

i like that bike. because of my current health issue i've found myself looking at road bikes again, mainly because i feel i'd be better served not bouncing around off road, was talking to Seb from Windwave about a Master, the sad thing is i want disc brakes but i really like the Master and in...

holy thread resurection batman! i took this out for a blast today, only a short one, as some of you know, i have some health issues at the moment, short street rides are it as riding a long way squeezes the lump when i pedal, so i've been sticking to street riding instead of bouncing around off...

@TSP i'm Jon's Bike Repair on the edge of the new forest but Gary is your man for wheel building, drop my name when you go in, it's always worth mentioning who sent you to him. my shop thread, quite a few pages now:-...

if you are in portmouth i'd make the trip over to Gary at GA cycles, 02380 636648, 65 shirley road, southampton. i have my own shop and can wheel build but he is nearer to you, he builds anything, alloy, carbon, has a huge amount of spoke stock, plus all various rim inserts for carbon rims, also...

just rebuild the lever assembly and rebleed, if you can't be bothered you can send it back to Hope and they will do it for you, it's not crazy money

i don't know if he still has any but try Gary at GA cycles in Southampton, 02380 636648, years ago when the importers changed Gary bought all the old stock, if anyone has any it'll be Gary.

honestly not alot, anything 26" wheel like that doesn't get much money, i'd "watch" similar stuff on ebay if you're looking for a value, tend to get more when split though

at a guess 2012/2013 but the orange achive on their website only goes back to 2015, yours if defo earlier having looked as you have a tapered headtube, they've been straight since 2014 i think, my first 5 was a 2014 and was more modern than yours in style, also 2014 was the first 27.5 version...

easier with a picture, also, quite often they use the same frame for 2 model years.
