???. Less ballroom required, due your peas been up under your chin. Like the thought process there. ????

You’ve made a decent job of that. ??. You could try to stick a piece of inner tube, shaped to carry on from the factory protection that is already there. The inner tube would be thin enough to follow the contour, sticking it in place with silicone adhesive would do the job.

Cheers. You know what that say in Yorkshire. “Arr that’ll do”??.

I made this out of scrap warehouse racking system, that was laying about. This was instead of an expensive, not very stable bike stand. It’s assembled/stripped in less than a minute, flat pack to store easy, height adjustable in 50mm increments. Very stable & doubles as a bench. Took about...

Some of the guys on here with Focus range of bikes have suffered chain suck(myself included), this was due to Focus supplying the bikes with a FSA chain ring, that wasn’t a 100% compatible with the 12 speed Shimano drive system. Some of the teeth are too wide for the narrow inner faces of the...

?. After a couple of tings & no reaction or side movement. You know they’ve got buds in or don’t give a f€<k, give them a few millimetres room as you pass, that usually gets there attention ?

I have the same problem. The rear one is fine. Front goes flat overnight. I put 30psi in it and sprayed it with watered down liquid soap. Bubbles erupting out of the side wall like Vesuvius. Got 100 ml of slime in but no joy. Also leaking from the vent hole in the AR30 rim, so will need to...

They be sat in a container, on that container ship that’s been trying to dock since mid October. Big back log due to panic buying before brexit. Apparently NHS has 11,000 containers of PPE on order. Hope your troos turn up before that lot does else it’ll be next December????

The short Reece ride I had, I must agree with you on the support given by the side wall & the easier rolling. ?.

I’ve given the E-wilds a try, front was on offer at a good price, so just got a pair. Some scroats had put broken glass down on the trail which wrecked one of the original Maxxis. That’s the reason for the change plus, I wanted something a bit more aggressive for winter riding. Gone tubeless &...

E-wilds fitted, Schrader valve conversion, slimed, out on test run. ??

??. Sunny Scunny. You can’t beat the view of the slag heaps. ?. ??

Mounting tyres in the morning. Sounds a bit dodgy. Don’t let anyone catch you. ???. Got Michy e-wilds to put on my wheels tomorrow, going tubeless at the same time. Hopefully should get me through my winter ride outs.

Looks great. There’ll be lots of failed climbs. That combination of sticky mud, under the fallen leaves, on top of wet roots, will guarantee that. Next someone will be starting a “Which tyre grips best on fallen leaves & mud” post. I’ll answer that quickly, after my ride today. None???.

First ride out for a few weeks. Lovely autumn trek around New Lanark, incorporating the Falls of the Clyde.

Welcome to the world of emtb. Where “good things come to those who wait”. You should read the Decathlon Stylus thread. Then you’ll know Decembers not that far away??. Welcome to emtb.

£1500. 1 previous owner goes by the name of ?Pat. Get all your gear in the back & doesn’t matter if you get in to drive home, whilst still black bright from the trails. ??

“Gravel on the corners”. Squeeze the cheeks. ???

If you have no signal on your phone & you dial 999 it will pick up signal from another network if coverage is available and use that network to connect. ?

I would class my riding as quite confident, have had moto x bikes previously, although a few years since, so not totally new to speed & off road. This bike/rider separation, happened after going off a track with plenty of room, to circumnavigate dog owners & dog, they weren’t particularly in my...
