^^^^^^ That just looks perfect :) .

A snowy Sunday morning ride ended at the pub (where else), someone thought it a good idea to see who could do the longest front wheel skid in the car park. It's times like these when you know there's a future for Elastoplast. :oops:

Great Plan, looking forward to finished pics.

Rotate out 2 back in one, repeat. If there is debris this is the best way to get it out of the threads without damaging them. +1

Not to muddy the waters but I replaced the 160mm travel 26er fork with a 100mm travel 29er fork which "compensated" for the bigger wheel. I measured the bike at the time and the ground to crown was almost the same. Complicatider and complicatider,:confused:

For fun only. I've recently replaced the front wheel on one of my 26er SS' with a 29er fork and wheel making it in affect a 69er, narf narf. It's well known that 29ers need lower gearing so I was expecting to fit a bigger cog at the rear to accommodate the change, but no, the climbs are no more...

Just to be clear, once fully charged I keep all of my power tool batteries C/W their chargers together in a cardboard box in the garage (which isn't attached to the house). I "stay around" when these batteries are being charged and promptly unplug and seperate them when done. The only...

More teeth equals better chain retention so that would be my recommendation.

^^^^^^^ Keep us all up to date with progress mike. :)

^^^^^^^^ :cool:

I had the original Maverick ML7 which was a great ride here in Spain, it seemed impossible to hang the rear wheel up. Parts were still available from the Flow Zone. Another one I shouldn't have parted with.

Welcome to the site. Lovely frame but you will need to post a price as it's the rules here. :cool:

Looking great, I`ve been thinking of having a frame powder coated in mat yellow for some time, do you have the RAL number please?

It will take a while to arrange the logistics and cost of collecting from Bristol, taking to Stroud then boxing and shipping to Spain, so if any one else wants to jump in please do. It hasn't been dibed by me. Feel free to jump in. I've ridden one of these and they are an improvement on the...
