    The Rohloff Speedhub thread

    Yep, it's definitely an exclusive item. I can't justify owning it either, it's too much money unless you appreciate, and use it alot. I personally think they are best suited for touring around the country, where reliability and minimal maintenance is desired. It is the simplest gear setup to...

    Cane Creek - Double Barrel

    Does anyone know if the Double Barrel shocks are serviced in Australia? Can they be serviced at home? I am considering one for a SantaCruz 4X, but the user manual recommends servicing every 100kms, which means only a few rides and you will need to send them away.... painfull, and...
