I have a set of dt Swiss something hubs to old curve gravel ALs that you can have for free if you can get up the road to Malvern to collect.

They’re Shimano 11 speed and relatively wide, but not tubeless compatible (although I’ve never tried).

Oh I just read this again and realise you mean the whole rail. Genius.

I just span the clip bit and it just about fits - but thinking about it flipping the rail is a much better idea and I will see if that works on non gravel ones

Edit: as described by ortlieb

Re pizza rack and mini ortlieb pannier. You can make it work - but by loosening and spinning the bottom clip so it fits on the lower rail (as mentioned up thread) . It is a bit fiddly tbh - especially on the brake rotor side.

I lost one of the hooks mid tour this summer and ended up using the ortlieb carry strap as a horizontal strap around the rack and hooked through the lower clip - which if anything worked better.

Running two minis and a basket up-front is great. I might swap to minis on the rear too.

£5 off everything!

Really want to see a built one

My partner is looking to buy a new mtb this weekend - does anyone have a referral code who's purchased recently?

Will obvs share the subsequent one here - I think you get a 5% referral with each
purchase at the moment

Edit - bought, you seemingly don’t get one in the uk, will post if one does come through

I had the same ‘rear load’ thing with my Strael, so sold it and bought a ten year old croix de fer.

(Which now has 4 panniers)

Souvenirs for anyone who is stopping by.

(I also got loads, so can post to the faithful)

Me and my partner have done this twice in the past few years - and are going next week again. We’re going full Zeeland to ride all the flood defence barriers etc this year, but I can link you our routes previously if you like.

I’d really recommend going out to the Biesbosch national park - is next to Rotterdam and super scenic.

Maybe the old man mountain divide etc? I guess you can use the cable tie mounts on any shape fork blades.

Or get a diff fork like - I think this build is great.

Thanks,I didn’t know this was a thing - almost def would.

I was semi thinking about cutting the two squares out which would let me shift, but this seems more sensible.

Also it makes sense now why loads of Radavist basket bikes have bar end shifters

New (to me) just in time for summer touring. Need to add a rear rack and find some small panniers for the pizza rack, and maybe a classier crankset.

I learnt the hard way that shifters and stem angle meant I couldn’t keep a wald basket on the rack. I’ve some nitto bullmoose too so maybe eventually it will become a hybrid.

Really a peak egb frame.

It’s really not huge. You can get two sleep mats next to each other and maybe have a foot of space left.

Also, I’m 183cm and have to be pretty careful about not pressing against the top/bottom longways. If you’re any taller I’m not sure it’s the best option.

I really rate the 2 person lanshan. Ours must be three years old with probably 3 weeks use a year, and has been faultless. I re-proofed the seams at one point.

We use it with tent poles for bike touring and walking poles for hiking.

I even got a 3fUL hiking bag too - full matchy matchy.

Thank you @ectoplasmosis @Brun @Grumpy_Git

Monthly resurrection of party wall agreement chat.

My parent was served a Party Structure Notice with literally a sentence of a description

‘Convert our loft space into a bedroom.’

Am I right in thinking this a ridiculous lack of detail? They don’t want to dispute it necessarily - is it fair to write back and say:

‘we’re not trying to be difficult, but can you provide an actual plan, so we can consider an agreement based on that?’

Hi - I had one of these and it fits fine.

It’s high above the wheel, but means panniers sit well.

Same as @young_gun - I’ve a edit this rack actually https://www.topeak.com/us/en/product/149-SUPER-TOURIST-DX-(DISC)-(W-O-SPRING)

Sits high above the wheel, but means panniers sit well

Lol

Me, @AE86 and @Not_Bruce are in a yet undisclosed European location for Rohan’s stag do that weekend.

Incredible timing - we will ‘do le skid’ don’t you guys worry.

August ride - I’ve just enough time to fixie my bike and @ioreka promises me she’ll ride down the church stairs

Amazing views -this is Shropshire way? We’ve been talking about moving to Shrews or nearby .

Do you have a standard mtb route you can share? I’ve done the Long mynd up and over - but nothing else

Love this.
