MTB-Wales.com

Er – because the so-called new look website with no graphics, dynamic content or familiar mtb-Wales branding was only meant to be temporary – however it turned out to be permanent, and the mass exodus you’ve noticed was the sadly inevitable result…

What a coincidence – I was wondering whatever happened to the original mtb-wales.com dildos group …

Hi Kev, thanks for the reply… Having done some research and speaking to Specialized UK, because this is an integrated headset, apparently the type I need are 45/45 (rather than the 36/45 you mention) – and they are usually referred to as ‘Campy style yellow seal’ headset bearings. I’ve really struggled to find anything suitable [...]

What frame size is it?? what model and what year? Any idea of total weight?

I have a decent front disc wheel – gunmetal grey Mavic X517/717 rim on a Deore (might be XT, I can’t remember for sure) 6-hole QR disc hub, 32H, not been used for a couple of years (it’s in the loft now) but you’re welcome to it for £30 collected (Barry or Cardiff). Rim is [...]

Yeah Christmas and new year always result in a slump in the riding ;-( I always wish for a decent couple of weeks in the new year to kick start things. Cold dry riding is hard to beat. Having said that I love that feeling you get on the first short-sleeved ride of the year, [...]

I find it’s very rare that I get a new piece of technology that doesn’t irritate me the longer I have it. my htc desire broke the mould in that the longer I have it the better it seems – partly just because it’s so well designed plus being android it gets firmware updates too [...]

There used to be 20-30 posts a day at least on the old mtb-wales forum, now there are 2 or 3…

As a matter of interest, where do most people go nowadays for their online mtb community experience???
