    AM bar width

    Bars I run 760's on my DH and my AM and I definitely prefer the extra width. I recently rode my mates bike with 680's and they felt pretty sketchy. In regards to clipping trees, I find that you get used to your bars and how close you can go to trees, and stop clipping them even if you did at...

    Single speed options

    Thanks, 32:18 sounds like it would work fairly well. I think I will buy the tensioner from my lbs, because then they can put it on for me. Cheers.

    Single speed options

    I recently broke my ankle, so I decided I would rebuild my AM ht while I couldn't ride. Currently the shifting is pretty stuffed and, looking at it, I realised it would cost a fair bit to fix. I don't want to spend a load, so I thought that single speed might be a good option. Being that I'm...

    New Pedals

    pedals I've got jetblacks on my hardtail and their sweet, light, thin and grippy, but I haven't bashed them on to many rocks, so not sure about strength or bending. Haven't ridden them, but I'm keen on a set of deity decoy lt's. Look trick and light.

    Bucket List

    I can definitely see the appeal of climbing everest, but these are the things i want to do: Sky dive, and possibly base jump, just for the adrenaline rush and free fall. I want to back flip my bike, think it would feel sick. Travel heaps Dirt bike in Africa or Asia and ride my bike heaps! :)

Stopped riding for a while due to starting a new school, but keen to get back into it :) this is pretty much as i got it except for the sram shifting, my saint derrailleur just fell off when i went...

    Why there is no reason why someone should not own a neckbrace:

    I think that it can't hurt to wear one, and that people will choose to ride in what is comfortable/ fashionable. If you want, wear body armour, and don't worry about people who choose not to. And neckbrace and no armour is better than no armour at all
