Push the RP23, only an extra 50 or summit?

Yes it's an extra £50. I'm not sure what I'll do yet. The air sleeve is damaged and I'm waiting for a replacement part to arrive.

How did you manage that, thought you were using your CCDB all the time?

Your mate's spelling is awful.

What's he getting in it's place?

I know, may have to point out the spell checker button when I see him next, he bought a commencal meta 4x from Rachel Atherton last week.

I broke the RP23 from Tappin the Nar! It's the RP23 on the Blur not the RP23 on the Tracer.

After a month with the bike in bits, my bearings have arrived \o/

The post office are holding onto them until I pay the customs charges /o\

Going to sell my commencal meta 5.5 carbon frame soon, I want to replace it with something else. I do a bit of everything except extreme stuff like DH.
Was looking at the new Santa Cruz Nickel, maybe something carbon again, any suggestions?

LAWL at your mate trying to sell a £1900 bike with spelling like that!

i didnt even know you could curry a bike....would certainly be crunchy

Tap it... you can't even spell it!

If you look closely, you'll see he has spelt "Tapping" wrong as well.
It's almost as if he's done it on purpose, the wee joker!

No, our wee hobbit isn't smart enough for that.

How are the AC hubs?

Much less draggy that Hopes and seem to spin for ever. Seals look OK but time will tell. Especially through the winter. They seem to be mega quality built though.

My new warranty Rovals are very notchy even after 4 weeks of riding.

Does anyone know how to use Memory Map?

I've downloaded the software and registered for the 30 day demo, I'm trying to use some of these .mmo 'overlay' files from here http://www.mtbsharp.co.uk/routes/mbr.html but when I open them with Memory Map there's just a white screen, no map information or anything.

Any help?

Memory Map also needs maps installed. I haven't used it in about 6 years though.

It's the way it's spelled round these parts. Innit! Ken?

So what you saying is that, from memory, maps needs to be installed on memory maps.

I like it.

But check the your device has enough memory first

 

[shadowcreaper]

got a question, anyone here have or rode a "Rock Lobster"??

i looking around at different bikes here in UK and atm my list is atm at
canyon FS (when they release the 2012 models......)
ON-ONE 456 carbon trail SLX
Rock Lobster 853

Then ofc maybe building my own but atm costs seem to be higher than production.
advice welcome as allways.......

 

[6thElement]

I think there's several earlier in this thread.

Otherwise you'll have to memorise the maps instead of using memory maps to map your memories.

Probably shouldn't have bought my Hardrock. Really want a full-suspension looking at these bikes.
