Tom Booth Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Nah, 29's gave their place. I've ridden a few and never got on with them, despite the skinny rims, 2.1/2.2 xc tyres most run and the broom handle bars they've always felt heavy to throw about compared to my fat oafish Five. That thing just feels like a flicky quick 26" but a big bike in general, 29" feels like your trying to derail a train. Great for smashing distances thou and keeping momentum.

MadManMike Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 I went for a smaller frame, to try and compensate a little - I don't like big bikes, hopefully this one isn't too small! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Booth Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Could work. I wondered a while ago if a slightly longer stem would work too, slightly more leverage to combat the extra gyroscope going on.. Either way, enjoy your penny farthing (In all seriousness, looks nice) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Booth Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Air pressure at the tip (well as close as you can get). Gives a much more accurate and constant reading apposed to at the bottom of the gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King C Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Going to look at a unit to rent tomorrow so workshop/car/motorbike shenanigans can begin. It's cheap rent but thats all I know about it so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeperson45 Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Wife is out so I'm watching Akira It'd be difficult but I'd love to see a live action version, would pretty much be epic scale Chronicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Booth Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 My new toy arrived today! Insane how good that gun is. Only problem is it throws twice as much paint through compared to my last gun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Booth Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 To a point, but some guns are just greedier than others. The difference is this atomizes properly so rather than just lashing it on pudding-y and heavy it's a nice flat coating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Just got back from an 18 mile / 2000ft climbing MTB ride which started and finished on my doorstep, now eating some f**king tasty home made sweet chilli chicken and salad wholemeal wraps, then got 2 hours of tennis this afternoon. And its sunny so I'll probably take the dog put for a drive with the roof off later. Good way to spend my last free day until May! Just need Liverpool to spank ManUre now... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartMini Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 This pretty much sums up my day: New phone, Coffee and out on the bike in lovely weather! Managed to get my phone replaced, even though this morning i realsied it technically isn't under warrenty (i brought the original phone 14 ish months ago, but got it replaced and the replacement is just under a year old). They didnt have stock of the old phone, so i got the equivalent replacement, which is an oct core, better screen+cameras, ect. Went out for a bloody good ride, must have covered 12-15 miles, (which did involve my legs cramping up afterwards and me walking around like i shat myself ) Got home, stuffed my face, still feeling hungry so will endeavor to cram food in my piehole!

bing Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 I've had a well good day. I'm training to be a rugby union coach for under 7/8's. It's brilliant, we have a right laugh. Doing all the courses and stuff when the new season starts later on this year. Rode trials for an hour this aft. And went out on the mountain bike at teatime for a quick 8 miles, just as it was getting dark so only needed the light on the way back. Had some tea and a can or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prestigio phone? (Saw the box on the table). If so its a good thing you get a new warrantee with a new product because it'll go wrong again I work in Maplin and they've got a 60% return rate or something silly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
