As said before, horses for courses. Depends where you ride, how often, and for how long. Had a stiff alum HT for over 10 ten years, and rode it on everything, XC, downhill, the lot, as everyone did back in the day when dualies were too expensive. Have now owned 4 different dualies in the...

Agree with what many people have said so far. Very hard to advise what the best wheel is for any one rider, but some general rules apply to all. Using easily available parts to build a set of hoops makes any future repairs a lot easier. Using thin gauge butted spokes are strong ( have used...

Yeah probably is the roadies, most of the mtb boys I know take all their stuff with them, wrappers, old tubes, burnt out legs.. Shame really, gel wrappers ruins a perfectly good trail in the middle of nowhere. Doubt people are throwing away bottles, probably just poor bottle holders in use...

A question for those who have done the 1x11 conversion on a triple crankset, how was the chain line performance compared with a std XX1 crankset ? Any issue or just the same performance ? I've got a pair of xtr m970 cranks which are very strong and light, and don't want to buy carbon xx1...

Yeah, not a fan at all of summer mtb riding, just too damn hot, even in Sydney. Having to take 2+ litres of water on a summer morning mtb ride is a pain Like most other people I love autumn and spring, and sometimes winter. Winter is much better on a mtb than on a roadie, can keep warm in the...

Yep, seems that seeing snakes on the mtb is just bad luck. Have been riding mtbs for a long time, and only seen only 4 in all those years. Mostly black snakes. I ride a lot in Menai area and mates who bush walk (why when you can ride) tell me there are plenty of them around the area and...

Rebuilding the spare mtbs disc brakes. Managed to rebuild a pair of formula oro brakes with spares, without loosing anything, or my mind in the process. Don't know how I managed it. Maybe just good mtb karma... Or luck. Could have just bought some cheap XT's instead and thrown away the oros...

Built up a pair of LB 22/27mm hookless U profile rims (650b) last year onto some existing CK ISO hubs, and threw away the old Mavic 717rims. Got them 32 hole to match old hubs, matt finish, UD. Look stealth, doesnt show rock strikes as much, re the benefits of matt vs gloss with anything...

I would seriously consider sourcing from US (wheelbuilder), just compare the price per spoke difference. Starts to add up. Both Sapim CX-ray and DT aerolites are crazy expensive in AUS, but much cheaper in US. Built some wheels at end of 2014 with CX-rays from wheelbuilder, best price I could...

Great bike. Got a 2015 model 5010 in large size. Very stiff, stable and forgiving after coming off a medium blur XCc. I am 5'9" and the 2015 SC sizing was tricky, the medium is too short for me to run a shorter stem, and the large is almost too big. But given the slacker and longer approach...

Picked up a new sc 5010 frameset and fork earlier this year. Great store, awesome stock and know how. Nice change to be able to talk proper mtb tech with a shop and get good feedback. Too many shops these days know bugger all about mtb bits and solving issues. You won't go wrong there.

Great bike. Got a 2009 blur xc carbon in medium. Very light and very stiff for the weight. Had a sc superlight before that and the blur is much stiffer. FYI the frame weight is very close to 2000g incl rear shock. My total build was approx 10.7kg. Works well with a 120mm travel fork too, more...
