rob ,try it properly ,it's amazing how much confidence those big bikes
give when riding ,just taking it down some of your local trails makes
you realise how much of a wuss you have been (me not you)

Oh, and I'm sleeping "rough" in Holyrood Park tonight to raise money for a homeless children's charity.

Good show, rather you than me though

Had my first (brakeless) ride of the DH8 up and down my street, feels absolute bonkers

Got the drivetrain together, need some kind of chain retainer thing, not 100% happy with the crank spider (steel Azonic cranks), waiting on a set of Hope Mono 6 brakes bought off the bay of E on Monday (gave up on the others bought off here) then it's just about done i think.

After all that i may sell it , if i'm going to sell i'd be better now while it's fresh and mint, it's an awesome thing but i feel i will never use it to anywhere near it's potential, also may kill myself trying

But they can land you in a heap of trouble , doubt it would sell anyway at the price i would need to be asking for it

Brakes arrived today while i was out, will collect them in the morning and stick some pics up over the weekend
