Quick pointer: if that's a GoPro you're using that rattling noise is down to you not closing the housing properly. I did this the first time I used mine and got exactly the same rattle until I realised what was going on. When you close the housing properly it is tightly sealed and the camera unit is held under pressure in the housing.

(Obviously if it isn't GoPro then ignore the above, as you were smile)

We both hit n just breached 150 up Kemmel. Record holder up Kemmel is Daddysumo with 174 with me next to him as an astonished passenger last year, without screaming out of Eau Rogue as well. With me out he'd hit 180 with proper run up no question...
With a 3 Parachute brake system deployed at the end smile

Yep, the catch shouldn't be fiddly at first glance but you generally only get to find out once you've got home and looked & listened to the footage after the first time!!! I learnt the hard way smile

Cheers,
I'll check it out as the noise is annoying. I thought it was movement in the mounts. I'm at Croft on Monday I'll have faff with it then.
