Re: 2 - 3 days in the Brecons / Black mountains

Apologise for bringing the thread back up. I will be setting off for a couple of days tomorrow following one or two of the routes posted on thread (Sennybridge heading south). I know it's very close, but thought I'd enquire if anybody has any experience of Brynamman heading north ish towards Usk Res...

I don't have one sorry, but if you want to pass the mug on I'd be happy to buy it off you.

Easton Haven Stem & Bars

I'm not sure if this is the place to sell these but thought someone may be interested so here we go. I have a Easton Haven Stem and Riser Bars for sale. They're black/magnesium colour. Stem is 31.8/85mm with 0 degrees, and bars are approx 710mm long with 20mm rise - both are in very good condition, ...

Re: size bag for anything cages

Going by what I've read, welding is now all the way down, whereas previously it was around the fixing points only. So far, these new ones have been fine.

Re: size bag for anything cages

Cheers for the advice stu. I think I'll go with 8L Xtra which for obvious reasons makes more sense than the 5L. I'm hoping the problem these cages had is now fixed - I've got the new updated 2014 version so hopefully they'll last :|

Re: 2 - 3 days in the Brecons / Black mountains

I'd have turned around and looked for an alternative route after 6 feet! My aim is to remain on the bike as much as possible so I'm open to using different surfaces to ride even if I'd be missing some spectacular views,plus there's always others around the corner. I find you can learn a lot about y...

size bag for anything cages

I'm about to purchase a 5L (?) dry bag from alpkit to fit a Salsa anything cage, but wondered if anyone has experience of them or is there an alternative option worth considering? I'm really wondering if there's a fatter/wider bag which works well or should I go with alpkit.

Re: 2 - 3 days in the Brecons / Black mountains

Thanks for the reply. I won't be in a hurry when I go, but I'm probably like most so will like to have planned an approximate place to aim for during the day - last thing I want is to be chasing my tail and wasting energy, so I'll take a map of some form. Am I right in thinking the double dash on th...

Re: 2 - 3 days in the Brecons / Black mountains

Hi, I've been reading the thread with interest as I'm planning a very similar, and first trip soon - probably when the weather cools a bit. I'll be looking to find or pick-up a first trail/route/path further west though, somewhere around Ammanford, as I'll be heading north from west Swansea (Gorsein...

Re: Wtd: 2 Season Sleeping Bag

Instead of opening a new thread I thought I'd keep this going as I'm more or less looking for the same thing. I'd need one a bit longer though as I'm 6ft 2". So, if anyone has one they no longer use please let me know. It doesn't have to be new/spotless as long as it's cleanish, on the lighter ...
