    Travelling with a DH bike

    Heading overseas with my dh bike. What are peoples opinions on removing the forks when packing it in a bike bag? Guess the main reason Im asking is being dual crown forks they're a bit more annoying to remove than single crown.

    (bit of a noob) question about cranks

    I was lucky enough to get a RaceFace SixC 170mm crankset recently as a gift. Currently have a Scott Gambler with a Shimano Zee crank and was thinking of replacing that with the SixC. The zee uses a pressfit bb. Do I need any special bb fitting to use the SixC with the pressfit bb?
