£175?! Geez. I think I’m sitting on the beginnings of a gold mine then 😅 Catching the thread was the most annoying part I did on mine. With new elastomers you really had to compress the fork and hope it stayed aligned. Doesn’t look like they greased them up much prior to selling them did they.

100% going up in price depending on condition mate. The elastomers fitted are light ones so easy to catch the threads , and they definitely need stiffer ones. The elastomers were so dry and not as clean as expected but not bad at all for the price. Will upgrade when we find a bike for them. Just looked at your channel and found your video, so I will give it a watch later, mate 👍

@GreenFingerHandyman yes they are supposed to be like that, mate. Check out the video 3 bike farthers Day special video. The orange had a set on, and so you will get a clear idea of them great forks. My mate saw them and wanted a set. Hence, this video 👍

I was building my bike with you but I had an another bike that I bought built. So I follow u and looking at my other bike. That long piece of metal that you didn’t used, it is the front brake lines. Before you put the front brake. You add that line in the same hole as the fender. I was following you and when I saw those extra pieces, I looked at my other bike and saw brake lines. If you look under the handle bar you will see tiny hole on each side. Right of left brake. If a person said they can’t do this bike, even watching you, must be dumb or has some huge hand cause those screw are very small. I’m an amputee, I only have 1 hand and I built it, With your help. It was fun hanging out with you.

I really think the things we do vs the reasons we ride are contradictory. We ride for fitness, but we wear aero clothing and upgrade to lighter bike parts. Keep the furry legs and wear the baggy clothing for riding. More drag will make for an intense workout. I just swapped my lycra for board shorts and T-shirts….
