I’m 6’7” tall, weigh in at 250lbs, so a rare treat to actually get to test ride a bike of this size!</p> <p>I was in the USA visiting family and found out that Competitive Cyclist were 200 miles from my mother in law – then that they were 25 miles from my brother in law! When they confirmed they had an XXL Sultan on the test fleet, I tweaked our visit so I could get there and ride. A massive thanks to Ryan and the guys at CS – made me feel really welcome, nothing was too much bother and the directions to the trails very accurate. So, on a day of high 90s temperatures and humidity, I rode a genuine monster truck of a bike.</p> <p>Initially, the bike looks right at that size – even 29er haters would have to agree on that one. It weighed 30lbs all up - pretty good for all that bike. </p> <p><img src="http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i253/fartootall/Turner%20Testride/DSCN1109.jpg"></p> <p>It always helps when something looks right. I’d have wider bars, but the rest felt pretty good. Initial mile on tarmac was smooth and almost no pedal bob even when trying. It felt like it picked up speed more than my own 29er and really span along with little effort. Once I found the singletrack (twisty, turny, up &amp; down, rooty, rocky) I could give it a blast. </p> <p>The bike really responded well from the off. I noticed the sharp steering straight away and this continued as a theme throughout. I guess this goes with the newer geometry of the bike and the forks and I loved it. As expected, 29er wheels with 2.3 tyres on just ate up the trail (but the clearance is there on the frame for British mud)</p> <p><img src="http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i253/fartootall/Turner%20Testride/DSCN1107.jpg"></p> <p>and rolled over small stuff without it registering. The suspension added to that so much that I could remain seated for far more of the ride and pile on the pedalling - which led to me having to stop as my lungs couldn’t cope with full on riding in that heat and humidity! When not drinking water, I played with the air in the sus – dropping the pressure a little bit to feel how the bike would be when sitting further down. It was better for pointing it down hills but still rode very well overall.</p> <p>I did my best to throw it around and the stiffness was noticeable – even my tubby ass couldn’t force any flex in the frame or the wheels and that added to the growing confidence in the bike. I did my best to put myself in awkward positions with the bike (oo-er) and it never flickered – held the line, responded and climbed superbly – standing or seated. The front end felt a little light, but with 20mm more travel than my own bike I expected that.</p> <p>Overall, I got the ride down to this:</p> <p>In the ‘forward, up and down’ directions, this felt like a great 29er with all the advantages that brings. In the ‘left, right, turny’ directions, this felt like a great 26er with all the responsiveness that brings. The competent suspension ate up so much of the smaller stuff and enabled me to pedal more, which in turn made me ride quicker – so I wanted to push faster. I hope this is a good thing – it may end up hurting more!<br /> Yes – I’ll be buying one – but I have some things to sell and trips to unfortunate places to make first – before 2010 I hope!</p> <p><img src="http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i253/fartootall/Turner%20Testride/DSCN1094.jpg"></p> <p>I was suffering by the time this picture was taken - sweating like a fat lass in a chocolate factory and breathing was laboured! Not my optimum riding temperature. </p> http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/bleeding-shimano-disc-brakes-can-anyone-help#post-497713 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 14:32:33 +0000 brooess 497713@http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>I'm following the instructions on the Park Tools site but lever just keeps pumping endlessly, no stiffness at the lever.

I was just going to reassemble it as it belonged to some one else but after I saw the swarfe it need cleaning out so dismantled it and found that the P7 on its star was glued to the heatsink with a clear epoxy .</p> <p>So this was removed and the star glued back in with Arctic Alumina epoxy<br /> then it was just a reversal to reassemble </p> <p>some thermal past on the heatsink and screw threads of the retainer<br /> and some silicon round the cable . and I did put in a slightly longer screw to hold the bracket</p> <p><img src="http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa46/amticoman/DX%20LIGHT/DXLIGHT022.jpg"><br /> <img src="http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa46/amticoman/DX%20LIGHT/DXLIGHT023.jpg"><br /> <img src="http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa46/amticoman/DX%20LIGHT/DXLIGHT024.jpg"><br /> <img src="http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa46/amticoman/DX%20LIGHT/DXLIGHT025.jpg"><br /> <img src="http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa46/amticoman/DX%20LIGHT/DXLIGHT026.jpg"><br /> <img src="http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa46/amticoman/DX%20LIGHT/DXLIGHT027.jpg"></p> <p>Ok so now some thoughts .</p> <p>When I first plugged it in the first thing I did was just sit it on the desk and wait to see how hot it got and how fast , now this is a rare sunny day in blighty with a nice 20 degree c ambient temp and after 7 minutes it was quite warm getting hotter than I would normally like so I ended the test and started the take down .</p> <p>I was quite pleased it was getting warm as this meant some transfer of heat was happening.<br /> The worrying thing about this is after the rebuild it got very hot real quickly like 3 minutes<br /> so in very high ambients it stands a good chance of overheating the led .</p> <p>Also I am just 1.5 hours in to a runtime test with a desk fan on full blowing over the light and is has stabilised at 35 degrees c so I dread to think what the internal temps could get to if I had not added the thermal epoxy and paste </p> <p>No beam shots to compare it with my other lights yet but will try and get some tonight</p> <p>so as it stands it looks like it will take quite a few sales away from the main light makers<br /> and also makes DIY seem a bit daft as there is no way you could build a light of this quality for the price . including battery and charger.</p> <p>The main failings I think will be the mount breaking as you stretch the oring round the bars or pulling the bolt out of the 2 threads holding it<br /> , possibly overheating issues in warmer climes than the uk if the user is not carefull to switch to low in times of low airflow</p> <p>also maybe the cable pulling out of the light when the mount breaks in a stack .</p> <p>I cannot comment ot the electronics as I know nothing about them suffice to say the quality is no where near Taskled stuff</p> <p>I would like to say it is rubbish dont buy it but Cant as I would buy one if I was in the market for a budget light . </p> http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/fs-ot-jbl-on-tour-speakers-brand-new-reduced-price#post-497793 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 15:33:01 +0000 autobarn 497793@http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Brand new boxed.
