Squeeky Pivot when in Pro Pedal - Yeti 575
Hoping someone can help.
When I have pro pedal switched on, I have an annoying squeek coming from the rear shock / pivot area on my Yeti 575.
I do not have the squeek when pro pedal is switched off.
I have had the bike recently serviced (last week), and even though I pointed the issue out before the service it is still unresolved.
As you can imagine the squeek is very annoying on long rides, as I have pro pedal on the majority of the time.
Isotruss on the shelves
Remember this? I thought it was never going to see the light of day, but CBO have them in stock!
Each Delta 7 Arantix frame has over 1,672 feet of carbon fiber (thats over a quarter mile of material) and takes over 300 hours to build. The resulting pyramidal structure of the frame makes it not only rugged but light -a measly 2.75 pounds.
lets see how long this one lasts
Paradox in white. Waiting in Brisbane for me to try to break it
There gos another one
Oh well, there go's another one. That takes the count to 6 frames busted. Anyone know where I can get hold of a tungsten carbide frame???

2011 Stumpjumper 29er vs Rumblesfish II 29er
As the subject sais, i am currently looking at a Dualie, however as i am a big guy 6'7" there are no bikes around that fit me off the "shelf"
so i have enquired about 2 bikes so far - stumpjumper 29er $3999 vs rumblefish II $4500
my budget is only about $3500 but i was wondering what everyone thought?
Thanks in advance for your assistance 
please PM me if you have any good contacts for bikes on the Nthn Beaches (deewhy)

Clipless Pedals
Had a good ride at Faulconbridge Point, Rid out and back twice. Only fell over 4 times. Twice at home in the driveway and twice at the trail. First time I have used clipless pedals, I got the Shimano caged SPD. I guess only repetition will make it second nature to twist rather than lift.
How many times did you fall over when you first tryed clipless? Do you still fall over?

Norco six 1
Hi all,
I have a 2006 Norco six 1 AM bike just sitting around and I am looking at giving it a makeover and but at the same time do not want it to cost me a fortune. I am looking at starting with Crankset, cassette, rear derailleur and possibly the rear shock and wheelsets down the track.
Does anybody have any idea's of what parts/brands I should be looking into?
thanks
