You got that shock sorted then Todd?

BM Epic's picture

It's all good now mate, turns out it was the shock pump that was doing the leaking, also had a loose rear deraillueur, loose bolts on my chainrings and my cable tension was non-existent, i am amazed it was riding!
All fixed and feels like a new bike!

But will never feel as new as a new bike
Pivot Firebird wasn't it

Actually, stick with what you've got
My envy would be too much if you got one of those
And I'd kill myself following you down the techy stuff

Been thinking a GT marathon will be next or force, absolutely love them, or spec. stumpy.
I hopped on Flynny's gt and it felt awesome!

Had to bail when the bolts in my stem decided to strip and leave my forks completely loose on a technical decent. Didn't fall but had to walk out disappointed that I couldn't do the ride. Was really enjoying it too!!!

Todd or Big Chuck or anyone will need to take me around there again another day!

Great ride today and it was good to see some new faces in the group. Just hope Scott(?) is okay.

Mark, sorry to hear you couldn't make the rest of the ride, but thanks for the SRAM link so I could!

Really is very much appreciated. I had a great time, and have found some fun new singletrack. How can I get you a replacement link?

cheers, Peter

No worries with link... carry around one to give to someone else sometime.

It comes off my old chain anyway which slowly became powerlinks as it kept breaking yet I kept resisting changing my drivetrain. So I have a collection of them.
