Haha can't take sickies if I'm not at work shit won't get done. I'm a viable source lol thought i said I couldn't get time off haha so that would be a no. :tape2:

I've got a 32 on there now with the 11-36 cassette. I think the added range of 42T will warrant the 34. I can't manage nearly as much climbing as you do, Cam, so I'm sure it'll be good!

Wanna swap your 32 for my 34?

i thought the whole idea of monstercross was high volume tyres?

I have some ardents too. But thought I would give these a go. 35C wide.

ah nice. maxxis raze are another reasonably cheap cx tyre that are fast on the road.

Moved my dropper post lever (Giant Contact SWITCH R) right next to my grip, and swapped the avid over to the other side.

180mm rotor with one finger is fun Skidz for days EVEN THOUGH ITS AVID

Yeah, the Raze looks decent, but only 33C and less aggressive side knobs than the Schwalbe CX. The Schwalbes were put into a CRC order under the old Wire Bead > DHL trick, which doesn't seem to work anymore, as these came via Trakpak. Thought i could give them a go on the bike for now, especially as the wrists, elbow, collarbone, ribs and intercostals are still healing and i will be tarmac bound for a bit.

Also walked down the road to pick up a set of Avid BB7Ss cheap from the Bay of E. They should be a decent upgrade from the yumcha calipers i have that dont seem to have pads at all.

You should be happy with those wheels, but what's the logic on running a mountain king rear and x-king front?

 

[ChopSticks]

Nautiours old wheels?

 

[simon21]

I wouldn't mind getting a pair with those graphics as well! Really nice!

 

[bignige]

Nautiours old wheels?

Yep..sure are.


And there's no logic to the tyre choice..I just had them in the garage so chucked em on.

Looks awesome, glad you got them ok. My 650b version of the same ones are getting an absolute flogging in South America and are holding up great! Wish I'd gotten the same decals though...

 

[bignige]

Oh Hey Rob....

Yeah turned up safe and sound.

Struggling a bit to keep air in the front one overnight but sure it'll seal itself eventually.

Can't ride till tomorrow but will let you know.

Any pics of your trip yet?

Cheers

PS. Did you steal the valves for your new rims ya git!!
