    retro bike ... non-retro helmet

    Nothing really.... did you have life insurance when they were growing up? OK, so I'm not being obtuse, even tho it sounds it... I too never wore a helmet when I was a kid, also did my share of London riding in the 90s and never saw the point or need, and that I could navigate my way out of...

    Brexit and shipping to EU

    Not that I was sold on it personally, but I am still waiting for these Sunlit Uplands that it was being sold on, to materialise 🤬

    1994 Kona Fire Mountain 700c conversion

    I just wish my mate would have let me do this for him, rather than spunking a grand on a new "gravel bike" - whatever that is

    Happy new year my Arse.

That left me and my 2brothers (2 of us live 3hrs and 5hrs away, which makes it harder) to deal with a cantankerous, belligerent, stubborn old refusenik who...

    Learning to do tricks

    Re: If you are looking to learn that sort of thing, I think you would ideally be better off with a specific jump frame... a small xc designed frame is going to be longer in the rear end, making learning the art of balance and getting the bike moving around, that much harder (and less fun)...
