Does a Hope Bottom Bracket fit a 2007 Specialized Enduro?
Hi parts gurus...
I am planning to replace/upgrade the Bottom Bracket for my 2007 Specialized Enduro Pro Carbon. This is the first ever change to the BB, so I was wondering if the Hope Bottom Bracket MTB - Ceramic with 68/73mm shell fits this Carbon frame? The measured width of my frame is ~ 73 mm. Current BB is Shimano stock.
I was planning to get it from CRC http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/M...?ModelID=...
Thank you in advance.

Which local shop stocks brake pads for Hayes HFX-9?
Need to get some reasonably priced brake pads (Hayes HFX-9) for Benji's bike before his Fat Tyre race on the weekend.
Any suggestions for a shop that keeps them in stock in the local area? Or do you have some laying around? Otherwise Benji will keep on going to fast down that muddy chute at Awaba.
Here's a picture of the brakes....
Thanks in advance.
Rgds, Hans

Where to get Brooks Proofide from in Sydney?
I'm the proud owner of a Brooks B17 Saddle (Honey. That's the colour, not an inappropriately affectionate term, sweetheart).
I appreciate that his is the bike equivalent of 'buying something you think looks good but actually just turns you into a sheep, like an iPhone, etc.) but I like it, it looks good, and I want it to stay that way.
As such, I want to get some dubbin to protect the leather from the elements. I was looking at:
Frieght options from Melbourne to Sydney
Bike shop won't package up and put it in a box for shipping(condition of sale apparently with Giant). The bike needs to roll out of the shop fully built and they can't even provide a box to put it in!!! So , I need to find a way of getting a bike picked up from the store (Melbourne metro) and sent to Sydney either as a whole unit or broken down. Any ideas?
