Spinach and feta agnolotti with pesto sauce and a chunk of the cheap coles garlic bread. Sauce is garlic and chilli flakes, bacon, onion, tomato and green pesto with a couple of ladles of pasta water stirred in (can't remember the right term, but it makes this so much nicer) and a handful of...

Jesus... I mean, you'd want to put a real fork on the Shore but bloody hell...

Yeah, I kinda want another one to go on the manik but I've got an '03 DJ1 which is basically the same thing but only 130mm... otherwise I can drop a 66 to 150mm but that seems like a bit more trouble than it's worth, what with it being a bit of a boat anchor...

I've got a soft spot for old Norcos, but that's not right. Although, I wonder what they'd value mine at...

Would they not enjoy the whip a bit too much?

I picked the frame up for 60 bucks, and put one of those DNM RL air shocks on it, which worked ok but then I got even fatter and was looking at nearly 50% sag at max pressure. Got hold of a CR after missing out on the black Friday sales and its freaking awesome. Rear creaks a little (may be...

Rode it again, twice in a week must be some sort of record for me! I really shouldn't have gone out as everything was still very soggy, but ended up doing one trail then a fire road loop. Did a beginner trail at the end and nearly ate shit when a braking bump puddle swallowed my front wheel...

I actually rode it, for the first time in a long time... love the Bomber CR, night and day compared to the DNM air thing that was on it before (it did do the job though, till I got too fat.) I really enjoyed myself, hills are not my friends though and I nearly threw up which hasn't happened in a...

If I was a foot shorter I would've snapped this up... dream bike back in the day - I so wanted the custom jr t 2004 Norco Rampage

I did see that... might go to the lbs with half an idea (me, not them) and see what they say - if people are making frankenbrakes with 755 callipers and newer levers/hoses then maybe... i do have a set of newer brakes (mt200 maybe?) i could convert, but would rather keep them whole if i can...

So in theory, could I get one of those and put it in the other end of one of these? https://www.bikebug.com/shimano-sm-bh90-sbm-1700mm-disc-brake-hose-xtr-xt-deore-slx.html

The lines have banjo connections at both ends... anyone know if the banjo is the same size for the new stuff as for the m755?

Hey all. I need to replace the hose on some m755 brakes and was just wondering if there're any bodges out there for this - the only original ones I've found on ebay are way too long... I've found these which look like they might work (and am assuming there's a non Temu equivalent that I might be...

Yep... so bloody dirty... apparently you had to pre register for the sale too - something about restricting scalping and keeping a lid on ticketmasters bullshit... I see that worked really well

Pearl Jam ticket prices... 2-300 for nosebleed at Carrara? What the fuck? I particularly like how there's a note that says something about tickets being priced at market value too...
