Also forgot that I wanted to look at your rear deraileur Mark.... looked really odd when I was following you, do you have any trouble with shifting ?

Yep havent till today it kept missing the gears sort of getting stuck between 2 gears if you like and sounding rough. And top gear when im on the front deraileur is awfull chain is rubbing somewhere. its fine when im on the bigger cog at the front so i was doing that on the last few miles home and boy did me knees start to cry lol

You wanna look at Marks rear end???

 

[Mr Haematocrit]

I think its the rear deraileur, the jockey wheel bracket looks out of alignment, it looks as if the chain is being twisted. Stand right behind your and look at the jockey wheels angle respective to the casette and you will see what I mean.... I'll have a look tommorow at it..... got a really decent stem to bring, something a bit special.
Be at the rink 10am ladies.. lol

[Mr Haematocrit]

Stop hating the bike, we can sort it we can sort everything

I had a similar issue with the Triban Mark. The 57 felt cramped and slammed. The 60 felt better but outstretched like your boardman. New saddle and adjustable 85mm stem has made it superb.
With Pauls help and my piss taking :sorted
