I have a friend with a commencal clash that has the same system on each side but without the circlip. Every now and then the bearing moves out so the chainstay and seatstay rub together. Constantly moaning that it’s a crap design and they should have used a groove with a circlip (just like the...

Sounds like the bearing has moved out slightly. Remove the bearing and thoroughly clean the area so that the bearing can be fully pressed all the way back in. Once the bearing is fully seated it should fully expose the groove for the circlip to be installed that holds the bearing in place. Best...

The UK YT distributor and bike shop is in Guildford. Is that reasonably local enough for you?

Agreed, didn’t realise what bike you have. I’ve seen people on bikes like that being refused at Rogate. I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re told to leave by the park rangers at qecp.

It’s dry at the moment but probably not for long

Rogate is a blast, short runs but a few to choose from and something for everyone. I only ride bike parks on my dh bike as I prefer jumping it to my ebike but I really do miss it on the push-ups and Rogate push-ups are steep. See loads of e-bikes there now (including my mates) and I have to...

They will turn up after your new lock arrives

And hope brakes can be bled without a bleed kit, doing it the old fashioned car/motorbike way of keeping the reservoir filled with fluid and pumping the lever whilst opening and closing the bleed nipple. All you need is a bit of clear rubber hose and basic tools

It would do exactly that on my mondraker. Try it, not exactly got many options left other than paying for someone to pick it

This is how it should look. Looks like the whole assembly has popped out when the wheel was off or when the axle was pushed in and the circlip has popped out of its location. Maybe just remove it all and it put it all back together with everything properly seated so the outer cover sits flush...

Maybe these will help. Looks to be held in place by the axle and when the axle isn’t connected it’s held in place by the o-ring? Might just push out from the inside?

Thermal socks for cold weather

Yup, chipped one on my first set and treated them like glass after that. Think they are using steel on the new range.

One of the things I liked about Hope brakes is you can fit a shock pump on the threaded part of the hose fitting and pump the pistons out as you can’t really fit a syringe under reasonable pressure on the bleed nipple

I would have also chosen the hernia option when I was 27

There are a couple of other options, carry a portable kicker ramp or Danny MacAskill front flip over said obstacles. I’m with the hernia option.

I used to clamp the IFP area on my shock on my previous bike as my clamps on my old Thule tow bar carrier wouldn’t reach the seat post. I know people who clamp their carbon frames lightly with no problems but I never liked the idea of it, plus I’m heavy handed. If I bought it all again I would...

Don’t know if they ship to Europe but hell of a deal for current smart Bosch system and spec...

It’s a shame the people who owned the house that opened up their front garden for a cafe half way round the Beast stopped and sold up. Used to enjoy getting a nice warm cuppa or bowl of soup when it was cold and wet. It’s been bulldozed and turned into a few houses.
