Interesting that they're running a traditional MTB tyre on a road course, I thought Maxxis would do a special 29" version of the Hookworm for them!

Are they like RS where you just have to deal with the distributor? They're a nicer post to use that the One Up, but the service issue means I have 4 One Ups and only one Transfer.

I had a similar problem with mine and sent it to NSD for repair because of the special tools. It was $200 ish so not great value but it's a good post when it's working. I'd just buy another One Up though, simple to fix

I use this, it's pretty good...

Good idea, I haven't run Specialized tyres since the old 26 days, but they were decent then.

Anyone got any good recommendations for light trail tyres? I'm a Maxxis hater and have no interest in DHF/DHR I was running Vittoria Aggaro (and loving) as a rear but I've put holes in two of them in 2 months in rocks (Smiths Gully) so need to find something more durable. Since I'm old, soft...

Actually, I just went through a similar with the XTR on my Bird. It would go up the cassette fine but only went down in 4s. It was the big springamathing on the rear mech, just crusty AF. I wasn't game to remove it because of the inevitable kasproing and missing parts so just got a new one off...

Sounds like the cable isn't properly seated in the shifter.

I can't believe you haven't sold this.

I was interested until I saw that the seat isn't straight in your pictures. If I wasn't too soft to ride a hard tail I'd be all over this like a fat kid on free donuts. @beeb might buy it just to neaten up the cable routing!

With spelling like that they'll soon be able to graduate to writing ads for stolen bikes on FB.

I just avoid 30.9mm bikes

It's the bike industry, the reviews will be glowing or a straight cut and paste from the press release

Keep the ideas coming, I'm always looking for a "legitimate business expense " I don't own any air bnbs but I don't think a bike for normal tenants is going to fly with the ATO. If anyone runs a "consultating" business I'd be happy to purchase roughly an Acto Fives worth of consultation!

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who uses the bolt and hammer technique. I find that if you swear at it enough it ends up straight eventually.

Looks like the Grim Donut is available from our Chinese Overlords...

Not sure I love that, something about the seat stay and top tube not being parallel is upsetting me.

I wonder if it works on accountants too? Yes, I did overspend $15k on that "material" at Bunnings what a terrible oversight.

It's interesting, current bikes seem to have all settled at the same place so at least it's not a cookie cutter 65/76 degree horst link 29er. Those chain stays and main pivot are going to need to be rigid AF to stop the DU's in the rear fork binding up. I like the bonded carbon elements in the...
