    that's the high roller 1 on the rear yes? 2.35? what is the size like compared to the 2.35 minion? I am after something sort of 2.5minion size, I think the 2.5 high roller will be about right, not sure on the high roller II's though??

    I've gone to Hans Dampfs from Minions(42stF/60aR) on my Mega but I've not ridden it enough to make a real comparison.TBH they don't look that much bigger.

    You must have had big minions then mate! The difference between the two 2.35 tyres was huge!

    Yup 2.35 high roller 1! Didn't look any different to the 2.35 minion on the front really!

    I might have to put a Minion back on to compare now :roll:
    Saying that the Minions weren't as wide as the WTB Prowlers on my HT :|

    Just had an email back from Wiggle regarding my Reverb. I sent it back due to it extending when picking the bike up by the saddle without any resistance at all... I thought may just need a service, but as it was under warranty I sent it back anyway.

    I've now got a brand new Reverb on the way to me apparently. So I need to make my mind up what to do with it.... Keep it in case i change my mind or flog it (brand new in box) and keep the standard Thomson post.

    Having seen my mates Thomson dropper this weekend, I know what I would be doing. When my reverb breaks or I get fed up with it I will be upgrading. The Thomson is a lovely bit of kit.

    Top man, you won't regret it. You should join the orange riders group on Facebook mate, great bunch of passionate five owners on there. All into pimping their fives. I was going to post a thread around mine on here but I have avoided it through risk of being slammed!

    I'll have a search for it mate. I'm awaiting my five this week. :D

    I know what you mean about people attitudes on here when it comes to orange bikes. But I can say I tried something else and still prefer a five.
