I took my car to RenTech (great service BTW!) for its cambelt, aux belt and service and they noticed my lower suspension arms were worn which would make sense as my handling felt a bit strange and there was a knocking from the front over small bumps at slow speed. I've now had these replaced but...
Thats one sweet looking bike! I used to ride lots on the past, as a kid I did alot of dirt jumping, street riding and trials and then I grew up so started more XC/Minor freeriding stuff. I want to get back into it and torn between upgrading bits on mine, or buying something new. I really like...
Thanks. I'll check this out!
What bikes to you guys ride? I've got an old 2002 Kona Bear Dee-Lux which I'm thinking of changing or just upgrading what I've got as its still in good condition.
I know Ambleside quite well as the GF used to live up there in her uni days, I'm trying to find routes but not having much luck (mainly as I'm not sure whats good to ride up there!) Any good ones on here? http://connect.garmin.com/explore
XC stuff mainly as long as there fun routes with some technical downhills. I've got a heavy KONA full sus so keep the carrying to a minimum! :)
Cheers! (tupw)
I know a few of you are into it on here, I was wondering if any one can suggest any decent routes around the Lakes. I've been to Ambleside for a walking holiday but never MTB up there...
Any thoughts!?
Cheers!
I recently changed mine all round and kept the rears OEM (£99 from reno for discs with bearings) and OEM pads (Cant remember how much these were) and then Brembo HC disc up front with 2500 as the OEM ones are made of cheese.
The bearing needs to be replaced with the rears.
A friend of mine has just purchased a 182 Cup and has noticed the switch doesn't work. I took it off the car and it does feel like its had enough, anyone know how much they are from Reno?
Not sure, normally they need to be reset by plugging the car in. My old Cup came on with the de-cat and then went off randomly on its own after a month or so.
Always see if someone near you has a OBD reader, where are you based?
Looks nice! I've always wondered where my old Cup lives nowadays, that was a nice car! Stupidly quick for the few mods I did (ITG Panel and a KTEC Stealth system).
I've always wondered why they feel the need to put their feet on the sills, its not going to acheive anything, other then incresing the chance of banging your head on the way out! Serves them right if they do! :D
Also, why did Reno feel the need to add a middle belt too? 4 would be crowded...
It does have its moments where the loud one is quite and then REALLY loud, most of the time its loud enough to be fun and not annoying when your not fully in the mood. I bet the quite version has those days too!
