Decided to give my old faithful Sanderson Soloist a spruce up. Ive never fully stripped or built a bike solo so this was a bit of a learning curve. Pretty happy with how it came out. Starting the tear down with my head mechanic All stripped apart from the headset cups An hour later and...

Long time fuck wit... First time confessor. Decided to be proactive and service my Pikes and replace damper seal with the upgraded model. Slow and steady all day inbetween my 18 month olds nap time, swimming lessons and visits from the inlaws. Everything seemed to go as the sram manual...

I've been sussing these out as well, I think the DK will be my choice. I'm probably a little too excited though as the little guy is just coming up to 12 months old. Where did you source that bike seat N.S.M? It looks tops!

I was thinking that they might cause some problems. I figure I can easily flip the light around and it should clear most of the cables but will just leave the light open to a thrashing if I decide to eat dirt (highly likely).

After scrolling through the thread, I decided to jump on board the el cheapo bandwagon for the Mont. Ive ended up buying 2x 1800 lumen lights and 1x diffuser for handlebars. Here's how Ive mounted them I also arranged lights for some mates, decided to have a play with them. Having never...

Beast! How does the Tranny go?

That sounds like a rough flashback, mate! I think just the single round headlight conversion is on the cards. I hate the square headlights and Ive owned an rs2000 in the past and and couldn't bring myself to mock up a faker. Still kicking myself for selling her.

Had been saving for a Transition Trans Am... Until this popped up. 1980 Ford Escort coupe, has been sitting in a barn since the late 90s. Its going to take me years to get it where I want it. But the end goal is turbo cosworth, bare metal respray, upgraded braks and steering.

Post your All MTN hardtail I'm in the same boat at the moment and have been looking into the 45650b and running it 26 until the budget allows for a new wheel set. I think there are a few people running them 26 which drops the bb height a smidge. But some chunky tyres will sort that out. I've...

I use these little sideys. Flush cut every time! http://www.wattmaster.com.au/toolsandinstrumentsproductdetails.asp?ProductID=180 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fark! Looks awesome mate! How would one land one of these frames in Aus?!?!

Yeah, it sounds a bit suspect. Maybe my claim cost them too much and they've had to tighten the belt haha. Defs not a TID salesman, but they went above and beyond to save my arse! So did the bloke in the koala suit who helped stretcher me to the ambo with my knee hanging out... If you're...

Hey all, Just thought I'd share my experience with the insurance companies. I used Travel Insurance Direct on a trip to Queenstown Feb last year and made a sweet mess of my knee, TID were awesome! Didn't see any medical bills (although, I think most of that was due to the Aus/NZ...

Hey guys, I thought I might share my frankenbike. I had to sell most of my bikes after doing a number to my knee. But I've finally been given the go ahead to start pedaling again. YAY! Funds are still tight, but using a stack of spares and a cheap frame sourced from cyclingdeal.com.au I'm...

Another vote for the Difflam spray! I've been combining that with the Difflam lozengers, paracetamol & ibuprofen. Works a treat!

I picked this up a few months ago. Nothing too flash, lifted a few inches, 33's and a few basic things. The previous owner really didn't maintain it at all so I've spent the last month rebuilding/replacing a heap of stuff on it. Hoping to have it back on the road soon and am super keen to learn...

I went through Travel Insurance Direct www.tid.com.au when I went to NZ & smashed the shit out of my knee. They covered 2 weeks of accommodation in a mega suite at Rydges Queenstown ($2500), booked out a whole row for me on the plane ride home, paid for my partner to fly back to Aus and have...

Epic thread, I thought I would add some gore to it I went full retard while coasting down a green run in Queenstown. As a result, my patella collided with a pedal and split it in half. Was a pretty full on way to learn that knee pads are required even on cushy slow ride!! Just about to...
