Clips on my enduro (and roadie), flats on my xc/downcountry/plaything and dirtjumper. Ride all bikes each week. Recently due to a dead pedal went to flats on the enduro.... slower in chunder, fine everywhere else. Found the same when racing DH would run clips on the chunkiest tracks. Flats...

Back in the day they were shit compared to boxxers.

I need shorts like those

Finally finished the build 3 weeks ago. What a shitfight it was converting it to 12mm through axel. Had to buy drop outs for both sides, drill and dremel frame. Couldn't find a axel so bought a longer one then stuffed up trimming and tapping thread onto that so had to find another axel which...

Yeah maybe on the tad heavy side. Weight and zippyness is the main goal.

Item: XC/Light Trail 27.5 Wheelset. Boost or possibly adaptable non boost. Location: Brisbane or so Item Condition: True and no mega dings Reason for buying: Increased zing. Price and price conditions: Up to $500. Can get onto a new Stans Arch set for $700. Extra Info: Microspline driver...

60% of wheelbase or 3.7m which ever is less is the limit. Over 1.2m needs a flag or red light at night and I never see flags on the back of carriers on 4WDs that likely meet the wheelbase/3.7 rule. My triton which I have a canopy on is a pig for it with the long rear overhang of the tray...

Bump. Anything out there?

Kinda looking a bit newer. Happy to spend that much on a frame.

Looking to move my son up from his 26" hardtail. He is on the short side of 11yrs old. Preferably a frame with tapered steerer (only forks I have spare currently) and back wheel could be 135x10 or 142x12 because I have both of those options. Head angle no steeper than 68 degrees would be...

On the weekend got myself a second hand Scott Spark. Going to go all downcountry/upduro and see if I can keep myself from seeking out gnar on this little thing. Have been finding my Sight 29er a bit sluggish on flatter rides and the hardtail a bit rough when I just want to go for a fang...

Did they sell?

I went rimpact due to weight and reviews. Working well really like them. Didn't realise how much I had been holding back in rock gardens Etc. Previously if I decided to open it up I pinched tyres usually bead and top. 2 rides have significantly had big hits and they have worked brilliantly...

Will be fine. I cannot notice the difference between my 26,29 and 30mm rims.

Reading this I was thinking why not ride at a gutter with top cap removed..... then realise maybe dampner off for rebuild so fork no ride. So no spring shooty outty.
