Been away for a year or so... illness, looking after the kids and the like, missed all the covid goings on in the parish so thought i'd best check in and see how everyone is!
how is everyone???
Cheers!
Hello. Please wipe your feet on coming back in.
Still riding the Escapade?
[ EDIT: actually, did you get something else in the end? ]
I've put me slippers on!
i did get the cotic but due to illness and injury and looking after the kids full time its only been off road twice and done about 100 miles. she's now up for sale in the classifieds. after about 20 minutes i'm in too much pain riding thanks to a long term boogared wrist. so im back to the mountain bikes when i can
I've moved to flat bars and a Redshift (don't call it a flexistem) stem, for similar reasons. Should probably sell on my Escapade as well.
I looked at making it into a flat bar, but to keep the same spec etc was cost prohibitive… so selling up and a new set of wheels for the Stanton seems the best idea
A good move. I haven’t modified the Escapade, the flat bars are on what in the olden days you might have called a hybrid. It’s a rigid 29er we were working on but didn’t go into production. Just added fat slicks… job done. Not missing the drop bars really.
