    Stupid Question? Rides from Bondi or Botany?

    Hey All, we're spending a week in Sydney before heading down to The Mont... Bondi Beach and Botany for a few days at each. Haven't spent much time in Sydney, but I'm keen to spin the legs a few times during the week, but not keen on doing it in Sydney traffic on roads that I don't know. Can't...

    I've been looking for a half decent 'hard' bicycle case that doesn't cost the earth, doesn't weight too much and will actually protect a bike well as airplane baggage! Have suffered damage to parts in the past using a soft bag :mad: Has anyone seen these before or used one...

    Sidi Toe Spikes...

    Hey All, after riding the 2008 Otway Odyssey 'mudfest' and walking those slippery slopes out of Apollo Bay I was considering a set of toes spikes for my Sidi Eagle 5 shoes this year if it's wet. A couple of questions if any one can help: - The Sidi's are not great on steep dry rocky sections...

    Work Stands?

    I'm keen to get a work stand for the XC bike but not so keen on spending in excess of $200 for what seems the base models. Rather be spending the $$$ on the bike! Have seen this one at $170 (about $200 delivered), reviews sound good. Anyone here used it...

    XTR Brake Lever Engagement Adjustment?

    Just fine tuning parts on the bike and have moved the XTR levers further inward on the bars for one finger braking (not sure why but I've always used two fingers)... Anyway, I'm finding that the point at which the lever engages the braking is too close to the bar. The pads are fine - not too...

    XTR rear brake caliper 'clicking' noise?

    Just noticed a 'clicking' almost 'tinging' like noise coming from the rear brake caliper when I pull the brake and get to the end of the lever stroke? Not sure when it started as it seemed fine last ride? I'm going to pull it apart tomorrow and place a couple of shims in the mounts to fix the...

    Prolonging Drivetrain Life...

    Not sure if this has been discussed in this forum before, but I did see a bike for sale where the owner was selling it with two chains... The idea being that the chains were regularly cleaned and swapped after 2-3 rides so that the chain wear/stretch was halved for each chain. If that was the...
