There are a lot of mounting options and I will be keen to see how your experiments go.
If you get the angle right on top of your lid you don’t end up with too much visor showing. As for knocking it off that 3M tape and mounting hardware is super tough. If it gets ripped off you will know about it. I had it happen once and it took a big hit on a low branch to do it.

Nice one Mal.
Looks like you sorted out you file dramas. Have you tried your GoPro on your helmet?

Welcome to the site Rex
You have plenty of Old Bull faithfuls around your way so keep your eye out for ride posts and get amongst it.

Hey Mal
Before you pay a cent for a program spend some time on this one. I own some pretty fancy ones like Adobe Premier and to be honest this feebie is just as good for quick cuts and Youtube up loads

Happy birthday Fish.
June is turning out to be the OBT birthday month. I wonder if the brewers are trying to work out why there had been such a spike in sales this month :laugh:

Have a great day mate and get your brother to buy you some real tubes

have used both mx51 dunlop fronts and pireli mx extra fronts the dunlops grip better and give you more comfidense but the pirelis will last longer and the side nobs will last longer in rocky conditions .if its not to rocky where you ride i would go the dunlops .but as TB said michelin fronts are good to just my opionion.am trying an s12 front michelin next myself will be interesting to see how it goes

Wouldn’t the M12 front be better out your way Rocket?

Hey Action
If you are looking at switching out tyres try the MX Extra. Good allrounder and reasonably priced. As for the lock nut, lock it off on the valve cap rather than the rim that way if your tyre rotates a little it will not tear the tube.

Check out the “rim clean” technique of keeping a constant size footprint as PSI means diddley squat between carcasses and tubes and different bikes.

All of my riding mates use this, my dunlop carcass needs 8.5psi to keep a constant footprint, whereas a mitas might need 6psi… etc

I googled ‘rim clean’ and got some results that may have the IT nazis on my back. Can you please explain more or post a link mate. This sounds like a much more consistent approach.

Cheers

It all comes down to what tubes do you use I reckon from experience

Ultra heavy duty Bridgestone or Michelin tubes you can run down as low as 8 to 10psi. Great traction but you can dent your rims. Always run a little more in your front as a rule (they seem to suffer more pinch flats and dents)
If you run standard tubes run 16 to 18 and you deserve any flat you get IMO sorry

Recent birthday ride 55 bikes only two flats and both standard tubes. One tore out valve on a UHD cause the rim lock was loose and spun the tube. That says it all I reckon

TB

I don’t think it is far to call the tube Fish had in his front wheel a standard tube unless you are talking about standard for a bicycle. :cheer:

How long are you off the bike? :dry:

Adam.

Could be up to 6 months, for off road work at least.

With the amount of riding you got in the first six months this year you will still end up riding more than most by the end of it.
Good luck for a speedy recovery and do as much physio as you can.
