finally will be able to keep up with the brisk badgers through the rough stuff

I think the fence only really affects the Deepcut side, the Ranges is pretty big so there's always loads to ride. Still a real shame about the fence though, same thing happening over at Caesar's Camp. It's a lot to do with dog owners leaving shit everywhere apparently.

Can the army not just use dogs and their owners as target practice? Why spoil it for everyone else?

A Rosko.

And if anyone is looking for something cheap to knock around on, Bike Shack in Leyton have one of those Vitus Dees for £160.

I'll be selling my vitus dee in the new year, 18" frame.

Pro's:
Shimano hydro brakes
Nice sram 1x mtb chainset

Con's:
Needs a new headset bearing
Needs brake pads

Reckon £180 is reasonable? I'd sell it this week if anyone wanted it before I head home for Xmas...

Needs a lower top tube

Fashion, innit.

I do wish the current trend wasn't also tiny head tubes. That's ^ an XL bike ffs.

Can we get a picture pls

will join this crew with a 26"wheeled genesis io which I will run with 29ers or 27.5"; theres enough space because I will be running smaller tyres (35c for 700c) as its a city bruiser. fixed too. hydro avid juicys, surly 135mm fixed/disc rear.
will try to make the 29" work first (it looks to be easily done) and if it doesnt, switch to 27.5".
much fun, many bruise.

Yeahbut with massive travel fork and + tyres non?

Standard 29 or 27.5+, and only 120mm travel.

I guess 'aggressive shredding' geometry just isn't for me :'(

Univega

But that's a Raleigh XXIX, innit?

Just googled that. Looks like it's both :-)

Look like decent bikes. This might be a repost.

Surely I can't be alone in the "Gumwalls make MTBs look much, much better" camp?

Gumwalls make MTBs look much, much better

Not all of them...
