Good ride today through the woods and a few quarries. Not to sure about the single speed up front going to struggle with some big climbs
A couple pics
Quick question what psi are you lot running your tyres at? Also recommend some good chain lube?

I have a hard tail and run mine about 35/40. Also have the 2.25s on rear to help prevent pinch flats.

I'm about 45-50psi, and then Muc-Off wet/dry whatever the conditions dictate.
Seriously looking at chucking my XCR on to full time road duty, and buying a zesty of similar for some proper summer trail fun.

Seller rode to my office today to drop off the bike I just bought off him.
GT Palomar, 2010 model I believe. Not as flashy as some of the bikes on here, I think it looks great though. Rear brake needs a little attention, ot of play before it actually grips. Shouldn't be too hard to sort though, only V brakes. Also, front suspecion might be getting replaced sooner rather than later, it feels like it's using up most it's travel just going in a straight line when I pedal down!!
I also got this lock with it, anyone know if it's any good?
