    Improving brake performance - Rotor size?

    I recently picked up an entry-level Norco Fluid HT. Overall, I can't really fault it as for what I need currently, it ticks all the boxes. However, the most apparent shortcoming of the bike is the brakes. From the factory, this trusty steed arrives with Tektro HD-M275 brakes, 180 rotor on the...

    12" Kids Bike

    So my little girl turns 2 at the end of this month. She's been quite interested in a balance bike we got her a while ago. Only just converted to 2 wheels from 3 but she is keen on it. Trying, falling, getting up and trying again. With this in mind, I want to explore getting her a proper bike...

    Alternative to WTB Pure V saddle

    Soooo when my new bike arrives, I want to replace the seat as I have a very sensitive tooshy. On my old Enduro, I had a WTB Pure V, and it was the best seat I've ever owned. Very comfortable and I didn't get particularly sore sitting bones. How.ev.er... It would see that these are no longer...
