Just after some quick opinions from some other RS Pike owners out there. I have 120mm travel 2014 Pikes on my Specialized Camber 29. The camber comes with the basic model pike (RC1 I think) so only has compression adjustment at the top of the right leg, and rebound on the bottom. Problem is -...

it pains me to do this but I just don't ride this bike anymore - I've been riding a hardtail SS for the last couple of years - I should have put this bike up for sale years ago. Have now moved in with new girlfriend and she thinks 1 bike is enough :( it doesn't help that I keep them in the...

Something a bit different. A really sad, beautiful, touching bit of film. https://vimeo.com/66106900

I'm an idiot. I just bought a brand new iBeam seatpost (20mm offset - 400mm) and matching seat in the wrong bloody size. I also have a Thompson Elite (straight 400mm) from my old bike which has seen about 6 months use and is still basically brand new. Both are 31.8, but I neeeeed a 30.9...

Hey folks. Just after some quick suggestions - the new girlfriend has been mountain biking once, a long time ago and now wants me to take her out for a spin tomorrow. Looking for good suggestions for places to take a n00b around Sydney - obviously it's gotta be accessible, but also not too...

I've had a lot of bad experiences with bike parts and warrantees and dodgy bike shop mechanics over the last couple of years, but recently had an extremely good one so thought I'd share: I just bought a Giant XTC 29er on ebay - sight unseen (yeah I know - asking for trouble). I got it cheap...

Hey all. I've just gone to the dark side and picked me up a Giant XTC 29er as my race rig. Finding it very fast and quite comfy but I find the stock Giant bars are too straight? I like the width but my hands aren't comfortable (yeah - that's what SHE said) - I'd like to find something with...

Can anyone give an update as to the status of the dam? Feel like a quick blast tomorrow but not sure if it's open or not. I usually get the emails from the rangers but haven't seen one for a while. cheers.

hey. I'm wanting to up(down?)grade to 1x10 as I only ever seemt to use the middle ring and I wanna get rid of the gripshifters so I may as well. I've picked out all the parts I need except for the chainring... I can't find a single (non-ramped) chainring to suit XT cranks that specifies...

hi there. After my bike suffered a catastrophic failure at this years Mont I find myself looking for a new race rig. For years I've been riding dualies, but after borrowing a hardtail to complete the race, I find myself looking into hardtail options - I really enjoyed the way it rode (it...

Hi there. My dad is getting into his late 60s and is looking to do sometihng for a bit of fitness. He has an old mongoose which he hasn't ridden in years, cos he reckons the hills just hurt too much. Was having a chat with him last night and he reckons he's been looking at some of the...

Hi there farkers. My commuter is an old GT Avalanche now converted to SS. I love it. It's fast. I run Maxxis Detonators cos I like them but lately I've been getting way too many punctures (at least one a week - hooray for Sydney streets and their broken glass everywhere). I normally run...

full 3 rings - solo. SMS Darren on 0405 306 636 if you want it.

hi there. I need to get my commuter rocket going again and need some rigid forks to throw onto it. 26 inch QR disk brake preferred. It's an old GT MTB frame so suspension-corrected forks probably aren't necessary though won't make too much difference either. I can afford up to about...

Hi all, If you didn't already know about it - Netti are having their factory sale again right now in Alexandria (Mitchel road?). google it anyway... It opened last night and was PACKED. took an hour and a half to get through the line to pay but i picked up 2 pairs of my favourite baggy...

Hi. Looking to do these two trails this weekend but not sure if the trails are likely to be open... I know they were back-burning along the Oaks last week - does anyone know the status of these 2 trails?? thanks

Hi Farkers/Burners.. Me and a mate are looking to explore some new areas and have heard good things about Menai (have also seen videos of nice ladders and all kinda goodies). Can anyone give me a quick run-down of where to go/what to look for? Will probably be out there early Sunday...

Hey folks. Had this problem for a while, it stopped, but I just serviced the fork and now it's back again. basically the U-turn adjuster keeps winding down on it's own as I ride - I go out for a ride with full 140mm travel, then an hour later when I stop, it's down to 110mm or something...
