http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/827/p1010358b.jpg/ That's my best pic of the Surefoot hinge detail Tim. I think your top one has a home-made leg, on the other, the leg looks machined and bracket looks shady. The welding technique employed for both is usually referred to as "Bird-shit."...

Fun, seems it's not your time yet. I hope you tune in when you can, take it easy and get well soon.

Surely ANYTHING that guarantees "you'll be asked to lead the pack" is beyond price ...?

Sunbeem. Bringing up the rear, in Bentham.

Sooooo, we should be sure to use fresh cat-crap.
Thanks for sharing that with the group Dougie.

Sunbeem. Out in the alley, with a shovel.

"... if it's always that hard to break the bead I don't see it being that easily dislodged in road use." Good point Barry, you make me wonder if we should be careful what lubrication we use to fit the tyre, does washing-up liquid remain slippery for long ...? Would a little roughening of ...

I'm not sure what Fun had to do with trams --- I never had any trouble from him, except he told me I needed a new battery when I didn't, but a little thinking would have saved me - so I learned a lesson from him. I learned from others not to pick a fight with him. So ........... thanks Ken, for your...

Bonjour Armaguidon, I'm pleased to hear that the RS has captured a French heart, I feel the same way, and like all good love affairs, respect plays an important part. It does seem generally agreed that some modification is needed to make the bike comfortable, so I wondered if your RS is still as ori...

"There's no debate about it." Sorry wirewkr, but I'm not convinced. (4 pages and counting ...). It's in the detail, for example, where you say the valve hole would have to be machined. How would one machine a rim hole ? Aren't you overcomplicating things to suit your case ? If the hole is...

There are many reasons why we don't ride with under-inflated tyres, and I think most of us know our machines well enough to detect a soft tyre with the seat of our pants, never mind a gauge. Or has the pre-ride tyre-check been reduced to "One, two, yep, both still there." You raise tenacit...

Not to disagree with anything you've said MS, but if I were to hit something hard enough to break my bead seal, I think a flat would be the very last of my problems.

Don't you ?
