So awesome to see Lysterfield gaining momentum as a proper mtb park. Unfortunately being (just!) under-age means its harder to get all the way up there. Is there a route via public transport from Frankston? Holidays are coming up, more than happy to put in some hard yards and support the park.

went down to lysterfield today, and was seriously impressed by how well the upper blair witch flows, such an awesome ride! can not wait to see the other trails when their built/refurbished.

Hey guys, I've seen some people around that have goggles on their open face helmets. Is there a name for this type of helmet or are people just wackin goggles over their normal stack lids? hah I am that confused right now... Thanks

Someone stole my bike last night.....just thought id post it here in case someone sees it. Bike:Giant Yukon FX 2008 Colour:White with black two-tone Date it was stolen:14th April 2010 Where it was stolen:Lakewood, Frankston Specs: All stock except for metallic blue grips, maxxis larsen tt...

Item: Shimano hydro brake calipers Location: Melbourne Item Condition: Whatever just not broken Reason for buying: Got dual control levers Price and price conditions: dont mind under $50 would be awesome Extra Info: maybe a rotor if offered Pictures: yes please!!!:D

Ready to ride.......? They didn't even fix the damn tyre.

Im talking about general riding like XC and bit of downhill. Dont search because I dont find shit so this helps more.

Hi guys what are the best clip in shoes for mtb. Is there anything else aprt from shimano? Thanks

Hi I was wondering what Avid Juicy 3.5's are like. I think they're an exclusive brake to some Scott bikes. If not then a Juicy 3 review would also greatly welcomed. Out of 10 score or a strength and weakness review would be really great. Thanks

I own a Yukon Fx, (not yours!) and they are a great bike, shame to see it get stolen. Live in Melb area so will keep an eye out. It shouldn't be hard to see because all that fluro green.

Even though everyone tells me how heavy it is...it stils prove me time and time again how well it handles. Even after 30-40km rides it still doesnt get too tiring. I think I've answered my own question. lol

Yeah this bike seems suitable...apart from the fact that it weighs way too much.

Gee Spanky...you must know what my plans are seeing as you've replied to all my questions (cassete,brakes,shifters). THanks man!!!!:D Still in my teens so it's gonna do for a while. BTW this bike is the shizbit of cheap bikes.

Hey I've got a Giant Yukon FX 2008, and was wondering if is suitable for XC. If so, then I will build it up. Would greatly appreciate peoples opinions on the bike. Pics below (bit dirty cause I went to Lysterfield yesterday).

Thanks for your help. The reason why I'm asking all these 'noob' questions is because I am building up Giant Yukon FX (yeah i know it's like the worst dually they sell).
