I don't like the wagging tail bags, but I do like carradice bags (often used front and rear, supported by some type of small rack). We have a few bits of Wizard Works stuff as a family, though all currently the smaller ones (snack bags, handlebar bags) and it's really well made. Same can be said...

No wonder at such a good price

Was just about to suggest looking up alt bars, some good options on https://freshtripe.co.uk/ amongst other shops. Schwalbe tyres will probably outlast the trip but can be a pain to get on/ off. Get some good panniers and a good tent/ sleep system if you haven't already (assuming you're...

Bump, might actually consider a c17

Should of taken a pic to document what exactly mine was. Though mine are 97 so years later and being a 98 Explosif it would of come with Bombers. Looking forward to seeing it once it's back from the painters!

Like that you can adjust the pins, but bit much for my needs and pins still look like could dig into shins pretty bad.

Rather than start a new thread, anyone got any recommendations for pedals without too aggressive pins, but wide platform and good grip?

What range is the cassette?

Second this

As always a wonderful source of great parts, advice and good nature!

So a shade wider than advertised. Torn between these and the Maxxis Ardent. I tend to do quite a lot of offroad touring, so something period correct like the Smoke 'n Dart is a little too draggy for the mixed terrain bits. Though very good for more difficult terrain.

What tyre's are those @Monkeeee01 and how do you find them on our local trails (clay/ green chalk/ flint for those not living near the South Downs)?

Looking through this, to get inspiration for wider tyres to replace my modern Ritchey 2.1 with something wider since these don't sit anywhere near that width! Do the Maxis Ardent actually sit at stated width? I also know some people who run Vittoria Mezcal as 27.5/ 29 and are really happy...

What tyre's are people running on there's? Currently running the modern Ritchey z- max 2.1, but those seem to sit really slim on my Mavic 231. @al-onestare has stated you can run up to 2.1 on back on a 98 Explosif and 2.2 on front (got 97 P2s). I'm happy with Black sidewalls, but preferably...

Any other suggestions for helmets before I pull the trigger on one of these?

Hope you're OK! I've only cracked a helmet twice, once on road and once off. The damage to the helmet was enough to convince me it was more than worth wearing one.

I want a new helmet for offroad use. My S Works Prevail is great for summer and is feather light. But it does have a crap chin strap and sometimes I'd like a more sturdy peak than just a cycling cap? And possibly greater protection. Equally I don't want something with a super deep back, but...

98 Explosif. Frame is by the standards of the time a little long for me. But is part of an effort to have a modernish position, while having components from early to mid 90s. Few modern additions- 100mm Thompson stem and 695mm Nitto flat bars.

Hi Joe, really appreciate the offer but I need a black one.

Did you ever finish this?
