I have some full drop bars, nice bonty race jobbies if that is any use velo?

 

[clockworkgazz]

you can give them back to me after the first race as you will have realized what a crazy ass'd idea it was by then.

'race jobbies'?

 

[clockworkgazz]

very soft texture

going to check out that wheel/bar position the morra and see if I can get the orange to behave better- good fat thread BTW

thank goodness it's not just me that gets race jobbies - i get them all the time. that's what race maps are for though i suppose, and race socks. anyone else?

Na, me too, last race jobbie was durring SSUK09, luckily made it to the portaloo in time, had my race shorts on too which were damned awkward to get off quick enough to do said race jobbie

A trip to Drum should be fine for me on Thursday

ZZ had a look at the iDrive and it looks pretty good need to convince you to bring it along one time I'd love a go.

Planning on bringing it to Inners once I sort out the effing brakes. Also the Manitou fork is pish, so I'm going to try it with the OEM Suntour fork that came with the Avalanche (which was surprisingly good). Geo will be all skew-whiff though, since these originally came with (I think) a 135mm travel (RS Psylo) fork - the Suntour has just 100mm.

Right clockwork is going a bit modern, the stem is 130mm and is going and flat bars are being replaced by risers - I know i know. I have a 60mm 100mm and a 110mm use the 100mm first? See if this along with the fork help matters?

Dare I say it but you'd get away with the marys on there
