Martin Reynolds Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 What a horrendous name! Maybe they did it for the irony of calling something light and weak a 'tractor' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolver Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Agree, it's a step in the right direction but whilst t's a 24", it's not a 24"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 There's actually a small tractor left to the model name I'm too lazy to start riding street-trials, just going with something familiar. Hope I'll like this frame/wheel size. It'll be at least 1 week till the rear tyre arrives. If the weather improves, I'll just go with a High Roller dual ply.

Greetings Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Go with the Hi Roller (Schwalbe have stopped making those tyres) and get those bars rolled back I've always hated the high roller, especially the dual ply which seems to be the only compound the 24" is sold in this country (yeah, we are pretty backwards). Got confirmation from the Schwalbe dealer that they'll be getting some Big Bettys in 1 week but since it's arriving in a container, I'm expecting the usual delays. Really want to have a go on it now, having built the wheels up I find the position fantastic. Also weighed it in at 6.44kg without tyres or tubes, looks promising.

Luke Rainbird Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Today was looking pretty grim work-wise for me earlier, with 5 different events to run/help run all over the country. Managed to find someone to cover the on-site side of an event in Reading after putting all the backstage shit in place and the other 4 went really well. Massive work beforehand, but feels so good to get that out the way, let alone having had it all go so well. Stoked, and probably gonna take a week off to celebrate 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You senior members get it too easy So apparently you can't go too far back in time with those, which is an arse when you're doing it on the phone. Then again, I'm not a senior...
