Can Mark do anything for a Blackbird, i.e. there's no front or (accessible) rear pre-load, only rear damper adjustment ?
Just got back from 1500 french tour and fully loaded Blackbird felt really planted and soaked-up the bumps. Unloaded, it bucks about like a bucky thing and doesn't handle poor road surfaces well at all.

He originally said he'd do a discount for 8 or more but I've checked and he's still happy to do the same price for 6 of us. Anyone else is very welcome to come along and pay the discounted rate on the day :)

So my iphone5 arrived today. Why is this relevant you ask? Well it's too long to fit in my bike satnav/phone holder and I was relying on that to get us there tomorrow :p
Might be able to shoehorn it in :p wouldn't it be funny if it fell out and smashed on day 2? :p

I will nip up there after my MOT to see you all pogo'ing around Chippenham ;D ;D
Re: Suspension setup group buy - Sat 22nd Sept
well apple maps got us to the doorstep, then said "you're here" and turned the phone off!
Good to see people this morning and after a chilly start it was a really nice morning! How does everyone's bike feel?
Mine's definitely a bit more planted in corners and less skittish -holds its line better
Re: Suspension setup group buy - Sat 22nd Sept
Mine feels great. I thought it was ok before but feels way more stable.
Hope you guys had a great run up to the airfield.
My decking is now dismantled so no fear of falling down holes in the night.. :)
My back hurts. Anybody wanna give me a rub?
Re: Suspension setup group buy - Sat 22nd Sept
My bike feels fab and the front end is def lifted with helps me from not sticking my butt up too much LOL yeah yeah Gerry i know what your going to say ;D :D
Re: Suspension setup group buy - Sat 22nd Sept
Very pleased, the front seems slightly higher, and it turns so much quicker now.
Gave it a proper good blat on the way home, and it seemed really planted, lots of extra drive out of corners, all for £32, a bargain :)
Really good to see everyone, havent been able to get out for a while, so it was a very enjoyable day :)
