I’ve had a OneWheel for about 7 years now. I’ve got the original from Kickstarter, which doesn’t look quite as sleek at that one. Used to go on it quite a lot - it was good for practicing snowboarding when there was no snow! I could carve on the concrete! Had a few offs from being stupid… but...

Going back to this now the bike is actually ordered... and I have a pile of purple DEITY bits sitting on my desk just now, and a couple of Supercaz purple bits in the post! I've never built a wheel or adjusted a spoke in my life, so please bare with me if I'm being stupid. IF I figure out the...

I wondered about that... as I still have an old 1299 XX1 Cassette, and considered putting it on my spare wheelset to run some fast rolling tyres for the winter. I wasn't sure if it would be detrimental to the components to mix them up. Yep... but I sold my XX1 derailleur when I got the...

I used AXS for about 3 and a half years before upgrading to Transmission. I still have original AXS on my Stumpjumper. Do I notice any difference? Not really. I never shifted under load anyway, and generally still don't unless it's absolutely necessary. The mounting / lack of hanger is a...

£279.99 at the moment for the 30.9mm I've had a Reverb AXS for over 4 years now and think I would feel this is inferior... however the price is amazing.

Could still be a print onto canvas though rather than an original. My mum gets canvases made of holiday photos quite frequently, and they cost next to nothing online. I think the real Mccoo pics are actually quite expensive. Someone must’ve ridden / hiked there with them… so you’d think...

There's a popular(ish) Scottish artist specialises in doing those Highland Cow paintings. Not my thing, but I know a few people who have them in their homes. I guess the ones in the bothy are prints of these for a bit of colour...

I’ve still got my old Marin with a titanium frame tucked in my in-laws garage. Must be about 30 years old now! No idea what happened to the saddle - I fear it may have been borrowed for something else and never returned!

The link Dhd12 provided is for the Tyrewiz 2.0 on bike-discount.de It uses the Zipp 3Zero Moto wheels as an example of compatibility, as they are SRAM's (Quark) own brand of wheels. If you read the description, it states the product (Tyrewiz 2.0) is for road / MTB use. The link I provided above...

https://www.sram.com/en/zipp/mountain/series/3zero-moto The 3 Zero Moto is a series of SRAM (Zipp) MTB wheels. All info in the link provided by Dhd12 is for MTB Tyrewiz 2.0.

It's the same with everything though... I enjoy playing golf, snowboarding and mountain biking. I'm probably below average at all 3... but I enjoy them. My friends probably think I'm really good because I spend a lot of time doing, but when you compare me to professionals, it's no comparison...

From the mattress?! 🤢

First 'proper' ride in about 5 weeks since I had surgery on my foot. Still not pushing hard, but nice to be back in the woods rather than on cycle paths and roads! Like several above... I thought I'd try and stay out of the messy stuff (avoiding puddles and particularly muddy bits), but it...

I don't have many pics that show it off well - as most of it is tiny screws / tyre valves / spacers etc. Here's a few...

I spent a lot of time / money a couple of years ago trying to put some oil slick on my previous bike... but only using quality components. The bike was black, so I wanted a stand out colour to brighten it up. I already had a SRAM AXS drivetrain, but bought the oil slick XX1 cassette / chain. I...

Looking good! That's exactly what I was hoping to do - either 2 or 4 coloured spokes round the valve. Hopefully that'll be enough to shut her up 😂

I'm an Airpod 2 Pro user too - riding in transparency mode. I actually bought little wings / hooks for mine to hold them in better. I don't really need them, but it gives me a better sense of security. They cost about £3 from ebay and slip on in about 10 seconds. The only downside is you've...

Would be easier... I've seen some heat shrink type covers that can be fitted.

The LBS have a wheel builder, so I'll maybe just ask him to sort it for me. Good tip though - thanks 👍

Mine are straight pull aluminium. My EN315 wheels came with 2 different sized spokes as spares, and my EN325/310 set came with 2 other sizes for spares. I wasn't suggesting getting i9 spokes - purely that she likes mine and has commented various times that she'd like wheels like mine! I've...
