Hey all I owned my first Impact V2's for around 3 years before they finally started to really fall apart. The out sole separated from the mid sole after a night sitting very close to a fire. I bought a set to replace them and the out and mid-sole have separated from the upper of the shoe...

Hi all, Got 2 wheelsets for my bike now, one downhill and one trail. I was wondering if its possible to run a smaller ratio cassette on the downhill wheelset than on the trail wheelset to get a better spread of gears, and not having to fiddle with the derailleur every time I change wheels...

Hey all, I'm going to Moe at the start of next year to visit my grandad, and I'm hoping to get a day or a couple afternoons of riding in. I have my own ute so I can get myself around, but would rather not travel too far. About an hour or 2 at absolute most. I'll be bringing a trek scratch...

Just got some pretty cool news from the Red Bull rep for USQ. He says they are screening "Where the Trail Ends" at a cinema in Brisbane, and if he can get enough interested riders Red Bull will put on a bus for all the Toowoomba'ites to go down and see it! Spread the word and post up here if you...

Evening Burners, I've got a decent enough chain guide that came with my bike, but I'm looking for one that has a bit more protection. I'm a fan of the Taco style guides, but need one for two chainrings. So far i know of the E13 guide, the MRP and the Blackspire one. Are there any others? Are...

Hey burners, I've had my 2012 180mm Talas 36's for just under a year now, and I don't remember them heavily topping out when I first got them. My first thought was air in the compression cartridge, but I pulled that side of the fork out, cycled it a bunch of times and there was not a "dead"...

Hoping to create a bit of a discussion here, wondering what everyones opinion is on static vs. dynamic geometry. One example is the old (06-09) Glorys compared to the new ones. The new ones have the same static head angle, but lack 10% of the rear travel, which means at sag their head angles...

Surprised that a thread hadn't been made yet. Think Gwin will crush it again or will one of the young guns snatch it? Stevie Smith looked good for it but he's injured and not racing today. How's everyone's feed going? Mine is constantly stopping and loading.

Hi all, my bottom bracket has tonnes of play in it, which I've narrowed down to one of the bearings being completely shagged. I'm not sure wether replacing the bearing is the go or whether to get a new BB. The bike in question is a 2008 STP Pro, with 73mm saint cranks and "Shimano Saint...

Hi all, I've got an 08 giant glory, with DHX-5, and I've just started running a 350lb spring. I weigh roughly 67 kilo's normally, so i'm guessing about 69ish with DH gear on. I checked the sag and it sags roughly 1 inch of the 3 inch stroke, with no coil preload. Problem is, I run no...

Just rode frenzy, it appears the council has done some maintainence, namely a little trimmig of the log drop at the top and cutting out that tree right next to the chute after the concrete section, some new concrete at the bottom of the concrete section so there's no longer a little drop, and a...

This needs to be posted up for every mountain biker to see, this was in the local paper today: http://www.thechronicle.com.au/story/2010/02/09/injured-bike-star-stunned-at-generosity/ A carry on from this article yesterday...

Hey all, had a massive week of riding planned, but one of my mates (kinda large guy) pedalled hard up a hill and broke his free-hub, and sheered the outer shell of his hub at the same time. Bike is an 06 demo, and he says he's broken 2 free hubs on different hubs before. Can anyone recommend...

NOTE: Not an LBS rant. I punctured my fox 40 lowers at Illinbah, which saddened me quite a lot and kept me off the bike for a few weeks. I purchased some new lowers through a bike shop, all happy until i noticed the lowers without stickers. When i enquired as to whether there was some sort of...

Yes ladies and gentlemen, that all time value for money king GoPro now has a HD cousin, capable of recording full 1080p video and taking 5MP photo's. It still seems to have a huge angle lens which was one of the big features of the old camera. http://www.goprocamera.com/hdheropreview/ Not...

I am sooo sick of having to un bend my lousy avid rotors, can anyone recommend some rotors that bend slightly less or are they all this bad and its just something i have to live with?
