    Just placed my 1st ever order with Stif:

    Product: Fox Attack Jersey (iD: 13586) (unit price: £9.99) x 1

    Product: Fox Baseline Shorts (iD: 24428) (unit price: £25.99) x 1

    Product: Fox Reflex Gel Half Finger Gloves (iD: 21302) (unit price: £15.99) x 1

    I shouldn't be spending this money right now, but a full Fox kit up, new bag with bladder and multitool should set me up nicely for spring... next month some 5 10's are on the shopping list.

    Well, first impressions aren't great. Placed the order through paypal but forgot to change the delivery address to my new one before hitting the confirm button. Realised my error straight away and fired off an email so ask them to change the delivery address (literally 2 minutes after placing the order), instead of reading that one and making the amendment they just sent me an email about 10am this morning saying the order has been despatched... to the old, abandoned address. :evil:

    A new hose for my air compressor, as the old one just burst and flailed around the garage like a pissed snake.

    Oh and a little teeny tiny component for one of my brakes which ended up costing £15 :cry:

    Oh oh oh and a new toolbox! Amazing how much time I can spend thinking what toolbox to buy...

    And some Thule bike racks for the roof...

    When there's 2 or less, they're still going in the back I reckon. When there's, for example, 4 bikes going to Fort William some of them are going on the roof :lol:

    Also will be good to be able to easily carry around 3 or 4 people.

    I was, but I needed something quality, but more durable than the Stans/ZTR option, I went against the idea of white wheels for this build, the frame is lairy, so didnt want to over-pimp it with colours.. got the XTR for a great price so couldnt refuse ;)

    They are for sale in the classifieds...
  • fair enough but judging from your previous builds it should look nice whatever you do
  • I ordered a Carrera Fury earlier
