  1. * Scouse accent * (no offence to Scousers) CALM DOWN CALM DOWN. Chung is correct, no Star nut in a carbon steerer Iain and Park make a snazzy saw guide. Pipe Cutter no use as carbon destroys the blade. Put insulting tape around steerer (stops splintering) and use 32t hacksaw blade. Finish off edge with a fine file. Measure 10 times (this induces sweaty top lip) and cut once. good luck
  2. Brand new Rockshox Reba RL Solo Air Remote Lockout. Tapered steerer (165mm) which I've cut too short for my frame hence sale. 100 mm travel. £100
  3. 24 H shimano Body on 100mm Blackwell carbon tubular rim.Sapim aero spokes(2 spares) comes with skewer and DT Swiss Carbon pads and Vittoria chrono cx tub.New battery fitted and latest firmware uploaded.The rim is the same as a planet x 101.£775

  11. come in and see us at Dooleys Cycles 40 Moss st Paisley..we have a couple of nice 2nd hand bikes that may interest you. cheers
  12. i'd advise against crank bros for mtb'ing as release angle is too extreme if you need out quick! 15 or 20 degrees dependant on which way round you put shoe plates. stick with spuds and use your brakes on those "fast" descents.
  13. layers layers layers. base-long or short sleeve. bib shorts bib tights wind proof @knees a minimum short sleeve long sleeve- winter weight gilet (most are water repellant) cape in back pocket for emergencies thicker socks/slacker shoes skull cap under bunnet overshoes seal skin gloves(bees knees) you can alter zips for heat management. all of the above MUST be all your old gear coz thats what winters for innit? especially on mtb in winter! have fun
