Ahh. Gotcha thanks. I read that they are a small rider owned US Company and figured what the PNW was but now all the weird name of their posts make sense!
What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

Uh oh what were the issues ? I've been thinking of getting a One Up dropper, the OEM Bontrager on my bike is developing some play after only a few months.

1st ride in a coupla weeks due to working FIFO. CBF doing any exercise bike in the gym this swing so expected to pay for my slackness.
Two steps forward, one step back, had to pause a couple of times being a bit puffed during the 16km loop I was getting through without stopping on my last break.
A couple of cocked up landings, I think I'm pulling to my stronger side when launching. A couple of OK landings, cleanly over the big logs.
Still got the Mino Link in the Low setting from my recent Linga Longa visit, will flip it back and do the same ride again tomorrow.
Gave the bike it's first wash, still super stoked with it

Apparently a batch a while back had issues with seat clamp pressure jamming the post. Essentially I couldn’t have the seat clamp done up at all.
My 170 measured 162mm.
And the actuator set up didn’t gel with my bike at all. It relies on the outer to move and actuate the dropper.
But in saying all that a lot of people have had great experiences with the One Up and swear by it. I’m just not not one of em.
Maybe mine was made on a Friday arvo. Who knows.

I know right....I want one that isn't going to crap out on me, and has a short full insertion length, the One Up was looking like I might be able to fit the 170mm version in my frame. But if they are prone to crapping out then no deal. I used the hell out of it at Linga Longa (bike park) and finished the day with more rotational slop than it started with. It hasn't even seen any wet conditions yet, being new in January.

The other big selling point for the black cranks; they cost me $250, brand new.

Cleaned up my XC bike, but also prepped my Roadie for its first ride since October.
Had to give it a quick ride to make sure everything was ok!
But broke all the roadie rules. Peaked helmet, no sleeves, MTB shoes, baggy shorts. Ha ha.

I just did some training today, Oaks car park to heli pad and back. Now it's getting cooler I'm looking forward to crisp mornings and 50km mountains rides.
The first 1/3 of the single track from the gate is a wrist wrecker I'm fearful missus palm is out of action for a while.
Saw heaps of these spider webs, even arachnids are building apartments!

Red Hill has been on my to ride list for a long time, just haven't made the trip there yet.

I'm heading up to Brisbane this week but have a few problems, I'll be bike less and is Redhill far from the CBD?
I may or may not be trying to hatch an evil plan.

A bit over 20 hours drive from the Brisbane CBD.

Yep, I've gotten geographically challenged big time and mixed up my Redhill. Not doubt one I'd more fun than the other.
