Took it out and got it muddy today on the west midlands ride in Leckhampton.
Pretty good test of a newly built bike (maybe I should have done a shack doen ride first :roll
Hand the only mechanical of the day - snapped chain caused by a free hub that wasn't keen on coasting........ spent the rest of the ride pedalling everywhere to make sure that the sprockets didn't overtake the chainrings. Fixed now with some GT85 which has got ride of whatever was gunking that up. (I dare say Dave will be along with a the only pic of my bike for the day - being repaired!)
150mm stems are 'interesting' on steep rocky rooty single track
