What joys will this weekend bring? Hopefully some clear skies, low winds and crunchy trails. If autumnal rides aren't your bag, how about a duvet day ...

That blue SID clashes terribly with a matt green frame - even worse that on the red framed Cotic that Guy Kes built!

I really hope that Specialized helmet comes in a minty white colour so you can have a Tic-Tac Tactic.

Back in the day of triple chain sets and V brakes we were happy with cheese and onion crisps. I'm fed up with all these new standards in the snack market pushed at us by the money grabbing potato crisp marketeers. I for one will never change.

I think that the Sirius Blue / Green colour clash is really dashing.

Very excited to read the eventual review, this is definitely on my list for a tough, does lots of miles XC bike.

That reminds me of my favourite ever headline in The Onion: "Funyuns continue to outsell Responsibilityuns"

Love, love, love the Pete Scullion cover photo. Print ordered, along with a nice 20 x 16" frame & mount for it.

I saw one of the Sirius' a couple of weekends ago in a deep sparkly blue colour. Stunning!

@andyspaceman. Have you got a link to the frame you chose. I am without a picture frame plan and need inspiration.

@charliedontsurf - I saw this one and nearly went for it, but am afraid to say I ended up going for a cheaper option off Amazon instead.

Put a couple of hundred k's on the Pathfinder Pro's so far, all on the road, seem pretty fast, a bit slower than g1 speed but that was a 700x35 vs 700x38.
The centre strip sits a bit proud so it feels very twitchy when you try to rail a turn, in a oh almost went into the hedge on the inside of a turn kind of way. Hopefully when it wears down a bit it should ease off a bit.
Aired up fine and holding pressure OK.
Rubber feels soft but the solid centre strip means it should last longer than the g1 speeds they replaced (they wore out after about 2000km).
