Anyone got a current model neuron. How does it handle descents and medium sized jumps? Tossing up between the neuron and a spectral/spectral 125 but not sure if the neuron will stand up to much abuse.

Has anyone tried either of these? Looking at them but not sure how hot they will be?

My Sender came with Guide RS's but one has started to stick in the lever (when the temperature is warmer) and i feel they are generally a bit underpowered for a DH bike. Most likely looking at Codes to replace them, but is it worth spending the extra $100 for each brake to get RSC's over R's...

Is there any reason fork seals couldn't be threaded (with a grub screw to hold them in place) or have a nut locking them in place? Would make it much easier to remove and put them back in.

I have had my Strive for almost 3 years and it that time have never touched the brakes (Guides) as they have always just kept working fine. They are still working fine, but I am thinking that the brake fluid must surely be starting to degrade by now. Is there any issues that will be caused by...

I have just did an air can service on my monarch plus and now when I go to pump it up, air is leaking out around the top of the debonair air sleeve (end nearest the valve). I have made sure that the sleeve clicks into place, the o-rings are greased up and tried swapping the o-rings around and...

Heading to Black Hill for the first time on Saturday. What would every recommend as the better bike for there between a DH and an enduro (160mm)?

Seat tube angle (specifically making them steeper) seems to be the one of the manufacturers big selling point on bikes now. Is the whole basis of this a bit misleading? Assuming that the saddle fore/aft position is set how it has traditionally been set (ie. Sitting on the bike, position one...

Has anyone modded one of the gripsport crank holder racks to make the tyre trays longer? I have one, but need to extend the tyre trays a bit so that my bikes (Canyon Sender and Strive) fit in it properly. I have some rough ideas on how too do it, but just wanted to see if someone else has...

Has any one else tried the "cycling the dropper post whilst the bike is upside down" so called fix to fix sag issues in a Reverb? Mine was sagging about 15mm a few months ago, but after a service it was alright for a while. Over the last few weeks it has developed a 5-10mm sag (just enough to...

I'm wanting to upgrade my 2014 Aurum as i want to upgrade wheel size (26" to 27.5") and increase the frame size - only M frame (420mm reach). My other bike is a L Strive (468mm reach) which feels much better size wise. Budget is around $4000 and I am currently looking at the following bikes...

Whats the consensus on the state of this rim? I'm thinking beyond repair and not rideable. I was supposed to be riding it at Bright tomorrow, but it looks like I will have to give that a miss.

Anyone on here from the Shepp region and into downhill? I've been going to a few spots (Kinglake, Barjarg, Mt Beauty, etc.) of the last few weeks and am getting a bit over going by myself. If anyone is interested, I don't mind driving, just looking for some like minded individuals to share...

I bought a pair of impacts in May and already the sole on the left shoe has a few of the knobs ripped of and a big rip in the sole. As you can see in the photo there is minimal wear on the right shoe. I normally ride a couple of times a week (30-50km) and have Saint pedals on both bikes...

Was looking to spend around $1500 or so for something to replace my 10 year old Giant DH Comp when I stumbled across this. At $3100 (half price) for a brand new bike I would have lost money not to buy it. Went for the first ride on Sunday and was not the least bit disappointed. Now just need...

Does anyone know anywhere in Victoria stocking 2014 Trance SX's? The only ones anyone seems to have left are small frames. If I can't find an SX, then I will get either a 2015 Trance 1 or a 2015 Reign 2, but cannot decide on one or the other (the SX slots nicely between them).

I recently bought a Giant Downhill Comp (06 i believe). The price was too good to knock back. However, being a newbie, I didn't go over the bike very well when I picked it up. Yesterday I noticed that the rear wheel has a flat spot and 3 or 4 loose spokes. My question is if I am to ride...
