Challenge him to a smash off. Good luck.

No thanks. I've seen his smashing skills in action and no doubt they've only grown since then!

Not sure about the freehub. I went through one about 4 months into ownership. Granted CRC were excellent in collecting the wheel and sending out a new one. I'm 100kgs riding and they're plenty stiff enough, and mine are 29". The freehub make a decent sound too.

For the money they're good enough but I see a different wheelset in my future. These can join the spares. Not interested in carbon as I just end up worrying about cracking them.

CRC keep saying they've sorted the fub issues in the Q&A section. If so they're a good buy I reckon for the price

Mine was just before / over Xmas 2018 so the hubs are not 100% yet. Granted everything at some point will break, and they were excellent in resolving the issue quickly.

This popped up in my Facebook this morn

One in medium and one in XL left. Seems a decent price for a Liteville hardtail.

Yeah the MK11 301 is really tempting - has been on clearance for a while.

Not a bargain as such, but confirming https://www.bikeinn.com/bike is good for SRAM stuff to Australia?

@moorey, being off topic here, orange frame for sale on facebook. Don't let it get away, even if overpriced

It’s cool, and team issue. Not overpriced either, I just can’t justify
