    Drop In

    It was Darren Butler with the busted ankles. The post crash cries of pain; the ambulance footage and the way the camera followed him to the hospital gave the episode an incredible feeling of reality. The problem with the majority of MTB DVD's are they all follow the same format. Pumping...

    Drop In

    I downloaded the entire 1st series to my PC. It was fantastic! Bought the 2nd series on DVD. You should still be able to buy it on DVD through pinkbike.com, or directly through the dropin site. Highly recommended for a "reality" type MTB series. 1st series was the best. Episode 8...

    stem sizes..

    I just went down to a 30mm stem from a 50mm on a DHR208. Very happy with the choice. Bike feels a lot more nimble and is a lot faster in tight switch backs when racing. On pedally race tracks, it's easier to get a bit more power down with the longer stem however, and high speed stability...

    whatever happened to Craftworks??

    There are quite a few ignorant posts on here bagging Craftworks bikes..............and since when does any bike with a "Made in Taiwan" sticker imply low quality!? Bike frames are constructed according to the manufacturer's specifications. What bit of land on this planet they happen to...

    The best tyres for downhilling

    2.5 Tioga White Tiger on the front with a DH tube. 2.5 Slow Reezay Minion R on the back. (Brakes better than the Minion F on the rear, which helps on those rear brake dragging DH runs: we all do them. :)
