Have the Triple MkI. It's a strong light, but needs some speed to truly shine. Give the Son Edelux II a consideration, it has a nice strong, wide beam starting from just above walking speed. My girlfriend has one and I'm envious - considering getting one for myself. It's also cheaper.

My Lady has them on her 29er Pugs, didn't have much time to try them out but soon she will - going riding in the Balkans for 3 weeks.

They seem like really nice bars and Lady says she prefers them to the Titec H-bars that were fitted prior OG.

Well written, informative and entertaining. Thanks for sharing.

Any idea how it would compare to a 29erd Krampus?

Would love the attend BB200 but there are +2km and lots of work between me and bikepacking in Wales again.

Royal Post?

Or large Revelate GasTank - rather impossible to get :)

Posted to Slovenia.

"Bear Grylls... what a douche" fatbike rim stickers anyone?

Maybe give tenacious tape a try?

I was concerned about these little buggers too, but have found that small holes are not a problem unless you're after "full immersion waterproofness"

Ha! I've been seamsealing in a closed room, got all dizzy from WS

Take your time, drink a bear, do it outside or in a (very) well ventilated room - white spirit is strong stuff ;) For my double rainbow I used GE silicone which is thicker than SilNet. Pitch as you would do normally for camping. Use a paint brush approx the size of your seams and apply 2-3 layers. F...

You can definitely catch some nice riding between Pontypridd and Neath - mostly gravel but there's a mtb park with single tracks somewhere in the area if i'm not mistaken. Then you could try connecting bits and pieces of the coastal trail between Milford Haven and St. Davids, Some of it is bike frie...

Would putting the power from the hub through this http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/tout-terrain-the-plug-iii-hub-dynamo-powered-charging-device-prod32128/ charge a Garmin and/or a smart phone? Yes, i can confirm it definately does charge a smartphone. Mart, please be careful with such bold statements. I ...

Carradice Camper longflap in black... wish I went for the green one but I already like it a lot - loads of space to stuff things inside. It's very stable with a help of a mini rack :)

That's my next purchase! Did you get it on ebay?

Spent ages googling about for Salsa Anything cages to find they are out of production... :( Yorlin, there's a new beefed up version that should be available soon. From the pictures in seems they've done it right this time: http://salsacycles.com/files/components/comp_lg/Rack_Anythg_Cage_wStraps_RK8...

Composite, thanks for the links - I'll have a closer look at those forks. Mart, you're probably right, although for trail riding I'd rather have some fun on the descents with a suspension fork. Not that riding rigid isn't fun, but once I gain some speed I can't see sh*t - my head starts to wobble li...

I'm trying to find a suitable suspension fork for a Krampus frame. It's for regular 29er tyres, not 29+ so clearance is not a big issue - though increased clearance would be nice for future DirtWizzard on narrower rims (ZTR Flow, Blunt35, Dualy?). I'm after a non tapered steerer, 15mm QR, possibly 1...

Yes I beleive there is a limit of 500mA, although Im not necessarily sure that this will stop devices charging. I can only speak for myself and my experiences. In my case it failed at charging two different smartphones (HTC Desire, Motorola Defy+) and a couple of cache batteries. The Plug would sta...

With some nice climbing hike-a-bike sections :) Nonetheless it would make a superb bikepacking route, there's some great riding (I was told 8-))

Just about to order mine to link up the Revo hub and GPS (amongst other gadgets!) Is it the best available or is there an equally good cheaper option? Thank you! I had one and returned it to the shop. You shouldn't have any problems running your GPS via The Plug II, I'm not sure about the 'other ga...

Stu, if you run out of options give me a shout. I'm in PL now, maybe I can help somehow.

Cumulus have been really great to deal with, every time I bought something for them it had to be custom made. Maybe if you explain your situation they can arrange something.

x3 Fargo. If drops are your game you'll love the Fargo. It was the most comfortable bike I've owned, just get the size right :)

The old Thudbuster specific design had only one strap.

Anyone sick of his?

Middleburn RS8 gone.
One BFL gone.
Moonie bits gone.

all gone.

I've decided to build up a second Pugs for the Missus and transfer all the appropriate bits from my moonlander. Here's what's left. Only did 50ish miles on it, so all is in good condition. All prices ONO, include p&p, except for the frameset - I'd prefer local pickup in Milford Haven, but probab...
