John telling me how he managed to offload his test bikes to some South Australian gent

My wife only complains about my exceedingly large cycle collection. I often pedal out 60 / 11 on 406.

I’m hopefully purchasing an m5 carbon large 640 gram seat modified and owned by Poit. Waiting. For $100 it’s worthwhile experiment. Though I’m not seeking to make hurricane half as fast as vendetta. Climbing is easy low speed stability is great with fixed boom. 60T and 40T rings Yes you...

Couple pics of $700 bargain.

Hi slim. All challenge hurricanes were 406 wheels. Mine weighs an estimated 14.5 kg. Plus. It’s a 2005 model from challenge. The weld quality is poor. Duco is lustrous and it seems very solid. At the time it was an innovative design. Surprising challenge ostensibly don’t exist anymore. The...

Yes impressed by 210 gram weight. The coil spring dnm brand is nice actually but likely weighty compared to kind shock. $108 Aussie so cheap too. We shall see. Couple thousand klm on hurricane now. I like it’s comfort but not it’s weight.

So impressed by the wordsmith photo I ordered same shock for hurricane.

I think you will continue to see marginal measurable gains on the v20 . Anecdotal evidence only but seemingly a shared experience reveals most of us acquire our complete skill set 10,000 klm in twelve months cycling the vendetta. Many of us continue to mod and develop from simple ergonomics...

Great to hear . Loosening the squirrel grip of those “balls” with every day that passes. Back on the bike in no time.

Feeling sorry for yourself being the victim guess who don’t sue all leads to being unhappy. As ElyDave intimates “ grab it by the balls” and move forward. Pretty sure most cruzbike riders would be a resilient bunch and share many good traits based purely on brand choice. Lol. You know it...

Sickening mate. Sorry this happened to you. Totally gutted. Don’t underestimate the damage to you psych too. It can last a long time and come calling when you least expect it. Clearly your attitude is great and your sense of humour is intact. Positives and negatives swings and...

Cool I’ll check it out roger. Cheers.

It’s a cruzbike. Lol. So many paths not open to cyclists and a guard too. Thanks for sharing. Very interesting. What is your helmet roger. ?

Maybe build your miles up Kenneth so you can rule out other causes. Apologies if you’re a high miler already . It’s part of my aging experience that various niggles pains seize the day ever more frequently. Painkillers anti inflammatory pills anyone for your day 2 audax kit. Surprised you...

I ordered material and made my own pad. I’ve got stock ventisit pad for vendetta and tried extra layer but didn’t like it. Made pad for more upright challenge hurricane and am experimenting with more layers in posterior (mine) area to possibly relieve recumbutt. Sheeeeesh I’m no...

Hi mark. Great build great looker. Get that chainstay if you can afford to. Have no expectations just ride her. She sure is a lovely orange. Cool.

Kenneth does your saddle on climbs swing or yaw with effort. Will moisture be a stretch issue. ?

“Trigger and he pulled the fastest milk cart in the West.” Nice job Kenneth. Making something happen to find what works for you is fantastic.

I was going to ask for photos of skin suit tight jersey and merino top...........lol. 30 pounds is not a lot.

Ye old slim be an engineer.
