Trail Maintenance/Tidy Up – 15th Dec – POSTPONED!

Update: The Rangers have advised that the trails are frozen just now so we’re going to postpone the trail maintenance into the new year.

As mentioned at the AGM last week, here are the details of a trail maintenance session planned in conjunction with the Mugdock Park Rangers – post up on the event calendar if you can make it along:

For Sale; Titanium hardtail frame 19.5″

Hi Guys,

I’m selling my 2010 Van Nicholas Mamtor titanium frame.  It’s a 19.5″ centre to top size with an effective top tobe of 24.4″ (full geometry below).  Would suit someone about 6ft+.  Has two bottle cage bosses and crud guard bosses on the down tube.  Headtube is oversized at the bottom (44mm ID) and the frame comes with an oversize Nuke Proof external headset to take standard 1 1/8″ forks and also an extra Superstar headset with an internal lower race.  Takes a 27.2mm seat post.  It’s designed around a 140mm fork, although I’ve been running 120-150mm forks on it.

It’s in excellent condition and, being titanium never corrodes and polishes up like new.

Looking for £475 for it.  Let me know if you or anyone you know is interested before it goes to Singletrack/Ebay.

Alpine Maintenance Night

Fresh with enthusiasm from the AGM last night, sipping my coffee from my new GMBC mug, I booked my road bike into Alpine for a (cheap as chips) service….next Wednesday, and remembered Barry mentioning a proposed maintenance demo night on Wed 6th Dec, next week.

How can we sign up, and nominate maintenance topics we’d like demo’d?  For me, it would be botom bracket, headset and suspension servicing…..

Let me know if there are spaces left, and what the details are.

Cheers, Andrew

BTW, one of my mugs was chipped when I got home (wasn’t me, honest!). any left?
