    RS XC30 fork - Lockout question

    Hi yall I am wondering if any possible fork damage may be caused by trying to turn the Lockout control from off to past what I now know is actually “on”? Basically there is about 1/3 of slack which I now realise turns Lockout from off to as-much-on-as-it-will. The point “past” off feels like a...

    Popular/common AM HT's

    Hi all, I am wondering what the most popular frames are - I've got a few ideas by looking at some of the PYR threads already. I am asking so I can use the models as keywords on Gumtree, Ebay etc as I am looking at buying one :) The more readily available/cheaper etc the better. EDIT: Been...

    Quicklink for Shimano chain CN-6701? (Roadie)

    Need a quicklink to fit this 10sp chain, if someone can post a model etc? Failing that, is pin replacement on Shimano chains a pain? I've only ever done SRAM. (It's on a roadie)

    Lyrik Coil reducing travel by itself on bumpy rides

    I have a new Lyrik coil fork, if I set the travel to 160mm sometimes it will wind itself down to 145-150mm travel on bumpy tracks (I.e. Thredbo in this case). Any suggestions? Generally the knob will actually turn itself a few clicks, up to one full revolution in one case, but no more. The fork...

    Differentiating between year models for Fox forks

    I'm about to horde out a load of bike crap to you Farkers that has been laying around (Via garage sale thread). I have some Fox Forks which I believe are either '09 or '10. They are Fox 32 TALAS, FIT RL, white lowers. Is this enough info to determine the year?

    Ongoing lower back issues

    I've had some very localised lower back pain for quite some time, and am now considering starting a Chiropractic plan for about 3 months to see if anything improves. X-rays and viewing my general posture front on and side on show some fairly glaringly obvious misalignments at the top of my legs...

    Wheelset for AM use?

    I have a Blur LT2 with XT hubs & rims and a Fox TALAS 32 fork, however I'm looking at buying a RS Lyrik fork (20mm TA) so I will need a 20mm hub to suit. Question is, should I stick with XT rim & 20mm XT hub to match the back, or is now a good time to invest in something more "AM" - I.e. I plan...

    Recommend me an AM bike (160mm/6.5" - ish)

    Toying with the idea of selling my Blur LT and buying a more AM-orientated bike (I.e. 160mm travel fork, at least 6.5" rear travel). Very similar to the old Reign X stance. It seems Giant has dropped the X from it's range though? Suggestions?

    My company is looking to get into sponsored events etc, I am after a decent supplier of jerseys (and possibly other marketing material, such as bottles etc.). At this stage the jerseys will just be for road riding use. To start with I'd say we'd be looking at up to 20 jerseys. Any suggestions?
