Still sitting in the garage with gears still on it !,

Mike did you do clik24 24 this year ?

Jon

A question....................my Maxlight SS conversion will shortly get the carbon rigid fork treatment (currently a 100mm Marzocchi SL). What out of interest are folks own opinions - HT or rigid?

I wondered also, if I get to join the Kona SS club? My '1 owner from new' '98 Lavadome is SS'd - only really gets used to dash to the shops or haul my 3yr daughter round Rutland Water (good training!)

I will attempt to get some photies up.

I started off on a fully rigid MTB so have no desire to go back to it. I spend too long at a keyboard - i dont think my weedy RSI ridden mits could take the extra abuse

*feeling very left out of the Kona SS club*

*wanders off to find some inbred ss'*

Mike Davis,

 Were you camped in the solo0o section by a vw campervan ? If so that was me with a spesh stumpjumper fsr

Jon

but some folk I've met have had 'opinions' on SS set ups and felt a true SS ought to run rigid, for that proper old skool spirit.

Aye, that's true. But some folk are just plain wrong

Jon, I was trackside with a VW, yes. Where you next door?

I belive i was mike, to the left as you looked at the the course
