Black Inc 45 wheels (Factor’s own brand, but they get very good review and look mustard). Gone for Sram Red AXS with power meter. It’s gonna be the bollocks!
Along_the_Wire Fully pimped!!
Managed to seek my Planet X in less than 24hrs at full price no quibbles. Not bad for a budget brand and it’s basically only cost me £150 for 5 years use. Amazing!
About to sell my Rose today, see how that goes.
New bike arrived today. I’m working like an absolute cunt at the minute though, so won’t be able to build it til much later 🙁
Got some hunt all season wheels and have gone tubeless for the commuter. But no way I’m commuting by bike in this weather. I’ll end up with a broken hip.
I prefer it like this - less bellends on bikes.
Along_the_Wire Same here. I go out early on a Sunday morning to beat the dog walkers and riders. It’s very muddy that all. I also fitted some new brake pads. Hope they work.
Bit harsh on Benson, Grant
Anyone booked or done a mini MTB break in the Snowdonia National park.
Dubman No mate just a Geography field trip in 84
Dubman Strictly road for me, Dubbers.
Dubman Dubbers. Have a look at the MTB trails in the Galloway Forests.
We only did the family friendly ones but there are loads of hard-core ones too.
We spoke to some proper MTB enthusiasts and they said was ace.
Stunning part of the world too
Dubman Nope but I’ve done many trail centres there.
Coed y Brenin - massive trail centre with some epic rides Penmancho Trail Marin Trail Llandegla - but further away but awesome
Dubman done BPW a few times with my bro, we just do vanping though
I haven’t Dubman.
Hope that helps.
Along_the_Wire I know you Benson are roadies but there is a few Mtbers on here. I just fancy getting away for a few days in the summer.
Road racing season kicks off on Sunday with the UAE Tour. Fuck human rights!
It’s pretty much every week til the end of September from then. Living the dream
Dubman I’m only saying I can’t help pal!
Along_the_Wire I know mate. Wasn’t having a dig at all.
Mad_Cyril Thanks mate. I did look at some up in the Lake District but it’s so far away from me. Snowdonia is a lot closer.
Dubman Good point.
Same reason I laughed at the Mrs for suggesting IoW to be honest 🤣
Hursty Thanks bud. They all sound decent. I was thinking of bike park Wales as well but I’d prefer something a lot more quiet if possible.
Dubman Do they have a Bike park Wales in snowdonia as well? I know they have one down near Newport
Hursty I wouldn’t know. I was just looking online yesterday for MTB mini breaks and Snowdonia popped up. I do keep hearing about BP Wales but didn’t know where it actually is.
