Affaid i have no experience with them, if it helps i can highly recomend chain reaction cycles, and winstanleys, if your looking for anything in particular, 99% of the time one of them will have the best price you can find. |

That picture is pointless without a weight Rob! how much? I finally got round to weighing it to day, well sort of, and it's a bit heavier than I'd like but then it was pretty much build from spare parts and weighs in at 22lbs without the front wheel, but on the plus side there's lots of scope for weight saving.

Here's a little pic of my dmr Trailstar 2, been rebuilding this over a few months as a "retro" build, nearly complete, just a few finishing touches to complete.

Can you guys read this OK? Displays OK. Shame most of the units are imperial but looks quite a cute bit of software. One of the guys I used to work with swore by Garmin for all their extra bits. He had it on his (motor)bike but we put it in my Cossie one day (with an extra ariel up in the sunroof) and I've got some similar plots (no map though) but I certainly beat your maximum speed :) Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ??? |

It certainly is clever stuff. Sturgeo has something similar on his iPhone for running so it is the norm these days I suppose. Beats a map, a bit of string and a stopwatch anyday.
