    Not ridden it for 2.5 months since the crash because I knackered my shoulder but I am planning to get a new seat post, saddle and grips next, once I've replaced my cracked helmet!
  • That looks like a big crash mate.

    Thanks :lol:

    Knackered at the end of a long ride, didn't quite clear a drainage ditch and back wheel bounced out of it throwing me up and over the bars at about 25mph... more pictures if you are interested 8)

  • Glad you're alright man, those wounds look horrible. That kind of accident always sticks in my mind when I'm out and about so I bottle loads.

    Is it too small, or do you just run your saddle right down all the time!?

    Thanks, mostly healed with a few scars now!

    Too small? It's a 17.5", Does appear the that saddle is down in most photos weirdly though!

    Latest state, now fitted with revelations, which have shed some of that big weight!

    It rides so nicely now, it's great fun!
