Good call.
I couldn't stop myself last night. A store in the UK had the actual part listed online so I gave them a call to verify and ended up ordering it last night.
The local Trek shop doesn't have it in stock but is getting one in for me from Trek Central Australia. I should end up with a...
The section between Castlemaine and Daylesford used to be known as the "Dry Diggings Trail". A search for this will give you a couple of hits.
I'm assuming it's the same trail you're talking about because it included riding along the edge of an aqueduct which runs past the tailings dam for the...
I think this is it ( I didn't take much notice while it was attached to the bike).

Not sure if there's anything special about it. It acted as a preload for the bearings in that location...
Hey Burners.
Pulled my pretty mint 2015 Trek Fuel Ex 9.8 out of the shed and been for a couple of rides. The bike is in really good nick as I sort of checked out of riding mtb for various reasons.
Anyways, giving it a wash after a solid 4 hour ride through the Dandenongs yesterday and it looks...
Quite literally done by the book. I've got the Thomson instruction booklets wedged in behind my shadow board. I follow virtually everything they suggest.
Greased the threads and not the heads. Torqued to 5.6 Nm (not the recommended 5.5Nm) with one of these. I guess that 0.1Nm shouldn't be a...
Super suprised to notice this just now.
I've been using Thomson stems for 18 years. I fell in love with the Elite when I discovered the non-knee gouging design on the back of the stem. None of them have ever given me any issues. Always carefully torqued to the correct levels. Even more so with...
@Ackland These look to be the correct items?

That's awesome. At risk of destroying the grips and not being able to replace them, I haven't taken them off. Being my first set of grip shifters I've never pulled a set of grips off. I did a bit of a search and saw a bit of 2 * 10 XO gear but wasn't sure if any of it was cross compatible. I'm...
The one click of index on the 3 * 9 set up made the difference between a silent ride and an annoying ride. Brilliant design.
Thanks for the reply and the link @Ackland . Unfortunately the rubber on those grips appears to be going through the same stages my current set are.
Item: XO 9 speed grips for grip shift - left and right
Location: Ringo East
Item Condition: Good to excellent
Reason for wanting:
Time to get back out on the bike. As an intro I am keeping it short and real tame, cycle paths - hopefully at ever increasing distances.
The XO shifting gear on the...
Nothing new but interesting none the less. Mary Trump is Trump's niece and a psychologist.

She says Trump can't cope with anything negative. That is how his psycho father raised him.

Almost 10 years since it was updated. The unique spelling is special.

Completely. There’s a bit of bogan in all of us.
Circulating the ‘bogan baby names’ link got me into a bit trouble with a few individuals at one of my old jobs. Was very funny.
