    You're right not to experiment! Keep it safe in its box and one day it'll be worth a whole lot more.

    see i have the problem of the Remote Brain fitted with my Fox Float, it throws it out a fair bit so i ride with my bars offset on purpose, helps with the balance on the free ride sections as well

    well theres your problem, anyone can ride a bike with a brain, it even pedals for you

    to think I used to respect you!!

    REMOTE BRAIN - see, i am of a higher power than you, so i dont even bother to use my vast cranium muscle to ride my bike, i use a minnion brain thats always on the bike..... :wink:

    right, I might have a go at that then. I didn't say I kept my bike in a box all day, however given my talent for damaging myself and things I care about I was somewhat reticent to expose it to damage when I'm not riding it.

    Just dont do it on concrete, it will fall over until you work it out

    Just stick with velcro, you'll only end up going back to it when you're 80 anyway.

    Yup, bike is balanced on the flattest bit of my garden.

    It will stand indefinately i think un less there is even the faintest whisp of a breeze but the longest i leave it is about 10.aybe 15 seconds, just long enough to take a snapshot.

    I think the fotos look better stood up than leaning against something and the little bit of effort to get the balance right is well worth it
