Can anyone recommend a nice scenic ride around that area. 20 or 30kms of riding would be nice. Have read elsewhere that theres a nice ride around Mt Banks but I cant find...

    Dirt Works NSW 100K 2010

    Photos Although most of my photos are lame, I have a couple of the bridge ride that I want. The problem is how do we take advantage of the $28 for all my photos. If I add all the photos into my cart, it just keeps adding up. There doesnt seem to be an option to select bib number and purchase...

    BMC Fourstroke rear link hitting frame

    No resolution. I took it back to the store I bought it from and even one of their other ones in the inner west as a second opinion and i basically got the "theres nothing wrong with it" they even took it for a ride (abeit a few metres) but nothing conclusive. I wasn't particulary keen on their...

    BMC Fourstroke rear link hitting frame

    Maybe, but it still shouldn't touch the frame. Shock is a DT Swiss which I believe is standard on that model. I did have a good look at it yesterday and there is a small amount of rub mark at the point where the rear link would touch the frame. Although this could just be some dirt build...

    BMC Fourstroke rear link hitting frame

    The shock is not bottoming out, its the opposite and hitting the frame on the up when the shock is at its highest. Could be a number of other things that you suggested so will leave it up to the lbs to give me a (honest hopefully) verdict.

    BMC Fourstroke rear link hitting frame

    Hi Guys, Have an 2008 fourstroke 03 dually. Have noticed that as I go over small mounds or bumps their is a knocking noise coming from what appears to be the rear suspension hitting the frame (most but not all the time). Even from looking at it stationary the linkage is very close and only a...

    Manly Dam changes?

    It's still a tough track for beginners but definitely smoothed out in some parts - good for me cause I'm not the most confident rider (not beginner either). I definitely wouldn't take my wife on there unless she is a pretty good rider or tough nut - she is neither.

    L'officiel Le Tour 2009 Thread!

    Contador is a loaded gun currently going off. He will run out of bullets soon. Lance will win the tour because he knows what it takes to ride for 3 weeks and win x 7. Cadels has no chance being 3minutes behind leaders. You cannot win a tour on your own and he's team is just not up to scatch.
