All depends on what chainset your using :?

I must confess now and it appears im getting my nose rubbed in it and being made to eat my words too, but im man enough to admit when ive got it totally wrong and applaude the monumental effort being undertaken
That isnt riding with Rob, but is infact that i recommended to Tack that he dump the whole thing in the nearest skip.

:shock: :shock:


I offer for your build,a set(bikes worth) of M600 V'brakes in way of penitence
