Re: CLCM Edinburgh

Thanks for the info. This is how it is sitting at the moment: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y190/Lou_m/IMAG0176.jpg It was done roughly at a friends garage. Most of the camber shims seem to have been removed. I guess it is tramlining rather than bump steering. The car is at std ride height. When ...

Re: CLCM Edinburgh

It's on original front shocks. Front tyres are 195 40 17 and about pretty new. I need to get camber shims for it. Does anyone know if lotus round the corner from clcm keeps shims in stock?

Re: What Moutain Bike? - NLC

Giant trance bikes are brilliant. I just sold mine and bought a Spesh Epic. I do trail centre and xc races. The Giant did everything brilliantly, just got a really good deal on a carbon epic that I couldn't refuse. My mate bought a Giant Anthem for xc and he rates it better than his Turner 5 spot.

Re: Nimrod cancelled....

Whats happening this afternoon? I work at Leuchars on Typhoon. As far as we know it could be Lossie or Leuchars that gets closed and Typhoon moved elsewhere. Loads of rumors around :(

Hi all. Another VX

Hi, been a lurker around here for a while now. Bought a VX T in November coming from a Clio 200. I live quit close to Knockhill and I am normally up there at track days as a spectator. Plan to get out on track at some point this year though.
