Re: Dawes XC Double Edge, Mountain Bike Tandem
I'll take it if Al is not going to have it. Might be a couple of weeks before I can collect though.

Re: A perplexing issue with gears
Sounds like either you need new cable outers or the derailleur pivots/spring need cleaning.

Garway Hill is worth a visit if you're heading towards Pontrilas - I first learned about it in the Lost Lanes books.

Re: Black Mtns to Glos via FoD - good/quick routes?
I'd do this - all on tarmac: cycle lane through Gloucester and west to the A48 / A40 which can be followed to Highnam and you could then head for Tibberton and follow quieter lanes to Huntley and on through Blaisdon, Flaxley, Then Cinderford - Cannop - Coleford - Redbrook - Monmouth Then NW through ...

I usually do part or all of an SR series as background noise to my other riding each year I think I do plenty of riding, and a bit of audax, but I aspire to the day I can call an SR "background noise" :lol: :-bd What Dyffers hasn't told you is that he's got something like 15 SRs under his...

Re: Drop Bar MTB
Have a read of this: http://www.63xc.com/mattc/midge.htm Lots of great info about setting up flared drops. Worth remembering that the primary position for off-road drops should be on the drops themselves, so you need to get the bars high enough and far enough back to get them where your hands would ...

Re: Hambini on Bowman
At best he's unnecessarily confrontational. At worst, he's a misogynistic arsehole.
I wasn't convinced by the video that there was enough evidence to prove that he was right about the Bowman frames. They didn't look great, for sure - but death trap? I dunno.

Re: Dynamo charging a pixel 6
You only need PD for fast charging. My pixel 6 charges just fine from a 0.5A 5V DC source so you should have no issues with using a dynamo to charge yours.

Re: Salsa El Mariachi frame and forks REDUCED TO £375
I think you'd get 2.4" in the back - I used it with 2.1". Fork is 3" or more.
Standard 73mm BB, no problem fitting a triple - though I only used it as SS or 1x. Has cable routing for front mech.
