Re: Maxxis bargains

Does anyone know what sort of mileage you get out of the sports and the touring?

Re: Ebay experts

I've done quite a bit of ebaying and I don't think you can filter who bids as it's just part of the world wide web, But I do like the previous suggestions - especially the very high overseas shipping price. Saying that I sent a mountain bike to Sweden, all good and just the same as if it went somewh...

Re: ART Titanium HL cans fitted, the results.

If I want to take off my rear foot pegs, where can I get hangers from if I have bespoke pipes?

Stormsmasher, can your mate bend me a pair that would work like that?

Re: ART Titanium HL cans fitted, the results.

I'd really like a set of high level link pipes, I see Cliveyandrews is keen to have a set made up.

Cheers Steve

I got so excited when I read this post - asked MrsB and got the reply what about Sarah and Andy's wedding - gutted.

How selfish of our friends to get married on 20th June!
