Panaracer Fire XC Pro Wiggle Buy
Guys,
I am going to purchase a Panaracer Fire XC Pro Folding Mountain Bike Tyre from Wiggle. To save on shipping (which is usually $25) I am thinking of purchasing two so it qualifies for free shipping. Is there anyone who would be interested in purchasing the second tyre of me for the same price it is online. Approx $40. I live in Western Sydney. just let me know if your interested.
Cheers

Ortlieb products no longer available from Wiggle
I happened to notice on Wiggle last week that their usual fine stock of Ortlieb products had suddenly disappeared. I received an email response to my question about this stating that Wiggle is no longer able to ship Ortlieb to Australia for "... legal reasons... " They are still selling Ortlieb within the UK, so it would be possible to re-direct them with a 3PL.
If anyone happens to come across the next best priced store for Ortlieb products please share this on the forum (that doesn't involve a 3PL).

CBD based sports massage therapist?
Hi - does anyone have a recommendation for a sports massage therapist based in the CBD? Ideally someone I could visit during the day, or immediately pre / post work?
Not really keen on travelling outside of the CBD for this, although I am sure there are excellent people dotted around all of NSW...
Thanks in advance for any suggestions...

CYCLEWORLD - Burwood
So driving through Burwood last week I decided to pop in and check out CYCLEWORLD after hearing some positive things about their range and service - I wasn't disappointed and just wanted to share the positive experience.
Kona Stinky - possible purchase and looking for advice
Hi all,
My wife is keen to get into DH and FR after a year of riding XC, and we've come across a 2005 Kona Stinky with an asking price of $1000. It was bought brand new in 2009 (it was in the bike shop for 4 years still in its box in a back storeroom until 2009) and has been well maintained since then. I don't have any knowledge of Kona bikes nor of DH and I was really just after some advice/guidance on whether or not this would be a good purchase, in terms of the bike/model/price etc.
No mods have been made to it, and it appears to be in great nic.

99 Bikes Artarmon
Driving home tonight noticed a new bike shop in the old Straithfield Car Radio building at Artarmon. 99 bikes, searched the web looks like a Queensland based company.
Anyone heard or had any dealings with this company?
With KOM at Crows Nest gone, wonder how they will fare.

KOM gone or moved?
Haven't had a chance to stop and read the note on the window, but noticed that KOM's Neutral Bay shopfront has been looking dark and vacant this week. What's happened? Anybody know?
