just taken my name off the list, but in reality I'm a maybe. Both Sundays work for me from the point of view of not having anything else in my diary. Neither work for me from the point of view that I have a kid and work for myself and had to work all weekend to try to catch up, and I might be just as fucked this weekend and next.

Also presumbly a risk on lo pros. Never considered that before but well worth considering, not least as I am in the middle of building a lo pro and only this afternoon pushed a quill stem as far in as I could.
I bet that there are a lot more people on here who have never considered this than those who have.

"anyone got some crappy 26 rim-brake wheels lying around they dont want? I am spending all my money on silnylon recently but need to get back into the woods. Anything cheap and not likely to kill me considered!"
No, sorry. Total tangent but your last sentence reminded me of a mate who rides a ribble road bike... last time I saw him he was running the most insanely worn front wheel ever, with such bad rim wear that when he took it to a shop to be trued the manager refused on the basis that he was not prepared to risk his staff's health working on a wheel that could explode at any minute. Not sure whether there was any reality behind his comment, but gut feel from a non-expert on rim wear would tell me to keep well away from the wheel under any circumstance where forces are acting on it (riding / spoke keys).

Picked up a Dialled Prince Albert full build last night... I need to give her a few good rides, but in the meantime I have a few entirely related questions...
Has anyone got any experience of a Prince Albert with different travel forks and what did you think?
I know they are meant for 120mm to 140mm travel forks - would you consider running 100mm travel forks?
Anyone want to buy a set of Manitou Minute 100mm travel forks (9mm QR)? What are they worth in very good order?
Anyone got a nice and hopefully cheap set of 120-140mm travel forks (I'm a sucker for fox but anything considered)? [26" / 9mm QR]

Just curious for opinions. I am asking the question in relation to a second hand balance bike. It was described as well used with chips to frame etc. It was also described as "perfect working order". What would you expect from a balance bike described as "working order"? What would you expect from a balance bike described as "perfect working order"?
[As an aside I am delighted with the purchase - got it for much less than I would have paid given its condition, but I am still really fucked off as a matter of principal about the way it was described].
