Michael Guilford replied to craig sefton's discussion headset bearing overhaul - now stiff steering?"Were the bearings seperated into cone, cup and caged ball bearings, if so did you put the cage in the right way round? If so you have probably put a seal in the wrong place or missed a washer out. If you can't sort it out post a photo of the…"

Michael Guilford replied to Matt Hall's discussion Benefits of 175 cranks for cross?"More ground clearance with shorter cranks, but higher minimum centre of gravity height. I prefer 170mm or 172.5mm for offroad, but in my opinion its one of the less important bike fit variables.
I think the so-called science behind crank length is…"
John Bethell replied to Michael Guilford's discussion Tubeless with open tubulars"This is where all the modern riders fall about laughing but when I started riding cross in the mid 1950's offroad tyres were almost unheard of and a favourite trick of some competitors was to substitute an old road tubular for the innertube in…"

Michael Guilford replied to andrew sandercock's discussion Reasonably priced clinchers - what to go for."I fit my grifo on the rear the wrong way, and seemed pretty crap to be honest, i switched it round, and it seems to get grip much better when driving through corners."
Michael Guilford replied to Andrew Johnson's discussion Max tyre width allowed at Nationals?"Ive never had my tyres checked at the nationals though, and on the british cycling website the only thing they said about the new rules was that they havent worked out how to implement them, and that if you are racing the world series you need to…"
Michael Guilford replied to gary poynter's discussion colnago world cup"Whats it with the crazy gusset under the seatclamp. Yep wheels look like junk. Also, I would recommend not using avid BB5s for racing, I would replace the BB5s with BB7s straight away and sell the BB5s new.
The BB7 pads are the same as avid Juicys…"

that's the the most informative information I've read on the subject, thank for sharing your finding"
Michael Guilford replied to Michael Guilford's discussion Tubeless with open tubulars"Definitely challenge open tubulars. I dont know who decided that skinwall tyres dont work, but in my experience they are the most reliable. The only down side is that challenge open tubulars are a bit on the big (diameter) side, which means they may…"
Danny Halpin replied to Michael Guilford's discussion Tubeless with open tubulars" Hi Michael ,
I'm looking at running tubless next year, what tyres have you found work the best running tubeless

Not quite cyclocross... [b]Specialized Stumpjumper 2007 19"- Fully Refurbished.[/b] Here is my Specialized Stumpjumper. I bought this earlier this year, but have had to sell it due to change in work. I have put a lot of work into refurbishing this. The frame has been polished, I have had the decals cut/printed to match the original 2007 Specialized stumpjumper. The frame is a Specialized Stumpjumper 2007 frame, the photograph shows the frame weight as 1450g which is the confirmed weight…See More
