Re: Tor Tec Expedition Rear Rack. Any comments?

I bought this rack about 5 years ago and it has been used on a tourer and a mtb. for camping trips up to 2 weeks at a time.
I have use carradice and altura panniers and I have never had heel-strike or noticed any sway.

Re: Pompino rear mudguard

Hi belgiangoth

The wishbone seatstay on a pompino is already pre-drilled for attaching a mudguard.

1 Bolt guard to chainstay bridge
2 Drill a hole in the mudguard in line with pre- drilled hole at the bottom of wishbone,then attach with washers and a bolt
3 Fit secu-clips ( it makes it easier to remove the wheel from the track drop outs )

Re: Old Brookes Saddle - what to do?

Hi snailspace
If you find your saddle uncomfortable would you consider a swap for a barely used Terry Liberator saddle ?

Re: Good saddle for female stoker comfort!

Hi Gail
My ex had the same problem,which she solved by buying a "Terry Liberator". I still have the saddle, and you would be more than welcome to try it as i have no need for it anymore.
If you are interested please email me at mabraid@gmail (dot )com and i will forward pics.

Here is a pic, if you are interested I'll take it off the bike and get some more pics.

SR used to make a tandem stoker post,which was adjustable up to 4 inches, complete with clamp. I think i bought mine from sjs cycles-although can't be sure .

You could try contacting the Tandem Club.
