    What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

    We did the JF trails (both of them) maybe end of Feb and they were dusty and rutted then... We desperately need rain here. I went on a shop ride to some trails that don't exist and they were rutted, dusty, blown out and so so so damn gravelly. I don't remember the trails over here in worse...

    What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

    Got out for a spin near John Forest and almost had a spew at the top of a long climb. Felt so so off, rolled back to the car after that. So so so farken hot here in Perth at a55hole o'clock. God I hate this place :/

    AM Canyon Spectral 29 AL 5

    My El Roy has Max Grip Assguys front and back and I didn't find them terrible to pedal. I will admit it took effort to really get the bike motoring, but they weren't the horrors I thought they'd be. My other bike runs a dual compound HR2 out back and a super Tacky DHF up front. I will say it...

    Rode the new trails at John Forest National Park. I've got to say I was highly impressed with them! Lots of nice views and scenary plus some fast and simple flow trails. Conditions were dusty AF though, can confirm my brand new DHF Super Tacky 1000000000000% saved me from a tree The Surge...

    Uber bike pads shredding the rotor

    Seriously that damage is from a few runs at Meehan? No pad should be doing that. I've seen some gnarly damage to rotors on cars that run track day pads and try and use that setup on a daily. The pads never get up to temp and just gouge the crap out of the rotors. I've never seen this on a...

    What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

    I had no idea it was blue, since it's a climbing trial I'd never thought about that. I must say, wow the trails were so so blown out already. Is it worse this year or normal?

    What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

    Finally got the El Roy out onto the dusty af pea gravel of Kalamunda. There was a social ride so I tacked onto that for a bit before going my own way. A couple of observations: 1. Assguys feel weird. The bike has MaxxGrip Exo+ up front and MaxxGrip DD out back. When riding slow they felt...

    Jesus Christ, if you ever wanted the biking equivalent of a monster truck, this is it! It's beautiful, brutish and purposeful all rolled into one!

    Pass the relay baton

    I bought a Super Tacky DHF as the front for one of my bikes. The other bike has a MaxxGrip Assguy... Pea gravel is shit shit shit, if anyone else tells you otherwise, they are on crack!

    School holidays have finished here in Perth, so the one guy in the shop will look at the fork hopefully this week. I'll get back to you shortly :)

    TAS Marzocchi fork parts

    What do you have left? One of the local shops has finally decided to pull my 55 Evo Ti apart and see what they can do.

    What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

    Yep, not hugely interested, Bike Doctor couldn't do them as well. It'd be oil and maybe seals at most... Sent from my Pixel 7a using Tapatalk

    What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

    Nah, no one wants to service them over here. When I landed then abruptly crashed (tyre blew out/burped all air), the fork ejected some oil out the seals. I was just going to have them serviced but none of the usuals are interested. I'd have a go myself, but I've moved back to WA and don't...

    Yeah it was dreadful on Monday. Having moved back over here again from Hobart, pea gravel is just the worst. I'd rather ride in mud... Sent from my Pixel 7a using Tapatalk
