    VIC SOLD Santa Cruz Blur LTc 2012 Large

    Awesome bike. Can be fitted with 27.5" wheels. Absolute bargain and no expense spared on the build.

    High Engagement Hubs

    You could go with DT350's or DT240's with the 54 point engagement option. Sorry missed the previous recommendation forthe DT350's

    recommend a 27.5 boost wheelset

    Are you actually after a boost rear wheel which is 148mm or a 142mm. If you are after boost I have an as new wheelset using DT Swiss 350 centrelock hubs on Easton Arc 24 rims with DT Revolution spokes in the for sale section.

    Rider height for 2013 - 2015 Santacruz solo/5010?

    I'm about 5'10" and over the years have had a few medium SC bikes which were great. I then bought a medium Blur LT Carbon which I found to be a bit small and eventually sold it and bought a large. I understand that SC have increased the he size of their bikes but I again went large with my...

    Snakes

    I have just ordered a few Setopress compression bandages. These are printed with a rectangle which expands to a square when stretched sufficiently to achieve the required compression. Not particularly cheap but far better suited to snake bite treatment than normal bandages.

    M8000 brake "pumping up" on DH

There has been talk of a revised caliper and I'm not sure if it means anything but my two good brakes...

    Chain reaction cycles

    Well spotted. I just priced a few shimano XTR di2 components and the US delivered cost is about $750 AUD equivalent. Same items to Australia are nearly $950. Maybe it's time to buy from the Germans.

    VIC SOLD SANTA CRUZ BLUR LTc Large Late 2012

    The bike looks a bit neglected in the photo so I've totally stripped it and will relube and torque the pivots. All bearings and pivots are in great condition. Santa Cruz's sealing system on the more recent bikes is significantly better than the early bikes. I can quickly rebuild with the...
