Yep, VAR controversy; that's what it was missing!

Do I need to use thread lock (or something else) when inserting pins into my MTB flats?

Oh really, I certainly will, and at 150kgs, my brother is a comparative mountain goat!

As @mdcc_tester says, typically windscreen/key replacement will carry zero or £50 excess. I'd say it's worth either getting your own insurance or looking for an insurance company (there are a couple though can't remember off hand) who let you build NCD as a named driver (Google it). Also worth paying the few extra quid for protected NCD.

Yep, that's right - ideal. Many thanks

That reference is useful and as I thought - and slightly unnerving -being my Bro is closer to 25st. Perhaps first step is literally dig out the shed/get a beater frame/bike and stick some 36H on it where the financial risk is negligible and hope, if he enjoys ,and benefits from, it he'll look to invest time/money in getting something he'll use little and often

Is this a super-record?

Many thanks - good to see there's potential for the super Clyde/Athena/heavy cohort - I'll look for some 36H for him.
(Up)hill-hater who is new to the cycling world (love at first ride) and trying to make up for lost time by immersion in trying different models, materials, building, buying and selling different bits (hopefully without losing too much money) until I settle on a few things that really suit me in different circumstances.
