    f**k thats terrible.

    used to ride on circuit at the same time as him.

    strong man..... very sad to see this news

    I think he underachieved in a "difficult era" but who knows?

    all the best to his closest in this time

    There is a tribute page on the planet x website:

    Unfortunately events like these are becoming too common these days

    He fitted me for my 1st road bike: Planet X SL Carbon.

    He tried to get me to spend a little more on a Ti frame and dura ace.... In retrospect he was right as I ended up with a Ti. Let me have a play on some of the bikes, and gave me some great advice.

    Top bloke, and had all the time in the world to help me. Friendly, and genuine.

    Shocking.
