    First trail wheelset advice

    No question for me as I have DT350 with EX511 J-bend 32 spoke. How much more would it be to go for a custom wheelset ? I believe the EX1700 comes with 28 straight spokes. Is this for a bike that will be sold in 12 months or is it a keeper ? Buy once, cry once...

    Rors' non-theoretical pipedream stuffabout hoon bike

    With the brakes can you not just unscrew them, swap them over and tighten up ? Often you can get away with reusing the barbed ends and olives. If the lengths are in the ballpark then just leave it. A Shimano bleed funnel or cheapo copy should be about $10. You can probably get away with just a...

    Chainlines and 12 speed - 2 quick questions

    My MRP AMG chainguide/bash guard came with spacer washers. I ended up using different spacers at the bottom than the top mounts. A bit of trial and error removing cranks etc more than once.

    The QUICK question thread.....

    Buying bike parts from overseas, shipping time estimates and methods ?

    Like Qantas 99% full planes so not too fussed about the freight income. 6-12 months when more planes and flights are back in the schedule and airlines start competeing again for passengers the flight price will drop and secondary income will become more important.
