Sydney Retailer 5.10 Shoes
Hi Guys,
Am new to MTB and switching to platforms after some near misses on the clipless.
Having read a few reviews, I think I want to buy a pair of 5.10 MTB shoes.
Anyone know a Sydney store that stocks them? Would rather try them on for fit, rather than online.
Thanks, Damien

Awesome service
Just saying...
I ordered some specific parts from pushys online store, the sort of stuff bike shops don't carry as they are quite random (such as a ladies helmet in xxs, in a certain colour with certain features, a certain brand of chain lube and drive train cleaner..). I ordered it yesterday mid morning.
Low and behold! Today at 8:11am it was delivered to my front door!! That's a 22 hour turn around!! And it was free delivery!
Made my day.
Relief for AU retail & LBS's in particular?
Hi everyone,
*disclaimer
I work for an online retailer registered in AU but not in the cycling industry*
you might all be kind of interested in this.

Its about giving AU retail a level playing field.
Our friend Joe wants to reduce the tax threshold for overseas online purchases. I read somewhere that, or someone on this forum once told me that, retail here in AU employs about 40% of the AU workforce.
So there is plenty of votes for Joe & Tony in this.
Bike insurance. Which company?
I have my bikes as named items on my house contents insurance which covers them for everything and everywhere but since adding my latest bike, the premiums have rocketed so I'm wanting to put them on a specific cycle insurance.
I've had quotes from Velosure and Real Insurance and they're both a similar price and cheaper than having the bikes on my contents insurance.
What other companies are worth getting a quote from and has anyone had any dealings with bike insurance companies and c6an recommend their services?

Names on Frames
Guys was wondering if there's anywhere in Sydney that does those name and flag stickers for bikes. Happy to order from the UK company just in a bit of a rush is all. Cheers

The old Hornsby Cycles mechanics
Hi all
I am wondering if anyone knows the location of the workshop that the mechanics started up.
They were great at Hornsby Cycles but went out on their own after the shop changed locations. I did get an email at one point early with all the details but didn't record the phone number etc.
So if anyone here does know that would be great.
cheers

Terrey Hills MTB Hire
I'll be visiting Terrey Hills for a couple weeks from next Thursday (from the UK) and want to check out some of the trails nearby. Can anyone recommend somewhere nearby I can hire a couple of mountain bikes (hard tail or full suspension)? I saw from an older post that Manly Bike Tours do hardtails, is this still my best bet or is there somewhere closer?
