    "Lost that lovin feelin" - Passion for riding

    There's a bit of merit in changing bikes, I'd been riding either of my 29er's for the last year or so, great bikes, fun to ride etc, but just wasn't gettinga buzz out of riding, pulled the Reign out of retirement, gave it a tidy up and a service, now back having loads of fun...could be something...

    Ride In Workshop

    thing is, i had told them to get a new headset if they could'nt fix the existing one, they told me they could no longer get one, and were unable to fix the bike. i could have ordered one myself from CRC....they have them readily available, how can them not fixing a bike in their bike fixing...

    Ride In Workshop

    Just a plug here, I took my old Cannondale Gemini to a large well known bike shop in North Manly with a wobbly headset, and a need for a desperate tune up after not being ridden for a couple of years, so after almost a week, they called me to say it was non fixable and they could no longer...

    What happens to old DH/FR bikes?

    I have a 03 Cannondale Gemini 1000, love it to bits, but will no doubt never ride it in anger again, i have 'restored' it from a falling apart mess to a bike that can now head out and ride perfectly, new forks and rear shock, brakes etc...can't think of what it would'nt be worth, could never...

    Post your 29er!

    My latest 29er toy, I had a Niner air9 that i built up last year, Really nice bike, but decided hardtails really aren't for me, so got a Anthem 29er as well, meaning the Niner has been sat around gathering dust, so rather than flog the backside off the Anthem, i Bought a Voodoo Canzo 29er...

    Thoughts on adjustable/telescopic seat posts

    I have a Joplin remote one on my Niner, it works very well, just keep forgetting i have it! plus the cable is an issue as the bike has no allowance for it, maybe the bottom of the post near the collar needs a cable guide built in as zip tie is really the only option. i also have a remote...

    Tyre confusion: Larsen TT vs Crossmark

    I've always been a big fan of Larsens, but am now switching the fleet slowly to Kenda Small blocks....they seem really good, last a long time, roll quickly, don't like mud so much tho..a good all rounder. As for Crossmarks, having a bad experience with them on my 29er at the moment, they wore...
