Stop cable rub

I've just bought a new bike - 2007 Kona Coilair, and i am wondering if there are any products out there which protect the frame from cable rub. I've seen these vinyl stickers, that get stuck on the frame, but they're pretty ugly. was also thinking about sticky chair feet protectors to wrap around the cable, which has sticky and fury side.
any thoughts would be appreciated.
cheers

We need some examples of footage from this, but it looks promising:

I know there's that Oregon Scientific AT18 thing, but as discussed (ATA Vids) it's output was not so impressive.

Baby seat

guys,

i would like to take my baby daugther out for rides, and i was wondering if anyone had experience with bicycle baby seats. i would like to get one that goes in teh front (as i would like the little girl to see more than just her daddy's a$$) and i guess like many modern fully suspended bikes i need something that is fairly flexible when it comes to mounting options.

any ideas?

new tyres for a newbie

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hey guys, pretty new to the sydney trails, originally from up north way, the Atherton Tablelands in the far north of queensland.
Been here just over a year and finally got my bike back of my brother.
So i have noticed that my tyres are all but gone.
I am wondering what type,brand etc you have had success with.
I ride a DiamonBack Zetec sport, At the moment i have some 26X1.75's on, Michellin's(spellcheck). And on my last ride were left wanting!! as my knee can confirm!
thinking maybe a little chunkier, but not too much.
I guess most of my riding would be XC style,

New Helmet Option?

I'm thinking of buying one of these helmets. (I have to protect the face of the trophy husband my wife married!)

I think it could save a few teeth, obviously not for the serious downhill.

They cost around 85 pounds from the mother country, can't yet find them localy.

I wecome any thoughts?

Lights Again.... I know.... I know...

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Hey guys, I know this topic comes and goes all the time and some people might be tired of it, but I need some insight. I want to get some kind of lighting system for my bike in order to be able to go to night rides, but since I’ve just bought a new and expensive bike, my treasurer/better half/CFO cut my bike funding to a bare minimum so I got to get something that is really value for money. I was thinking of Ay Up (www.ayup.com.au) as you can put a simple system for $180~200 with 2 3w LEDs. Has anyone used or at least seen one of those up close?

Cheers,

Leo.

'08 Bling

I was in BA yesterday, they have some '08 bling in already!

In fact, they almost had a bling overload. Couple of Santa Cruz models and a Yeti sat there front and centre as you walk in.

The '08 Carbon Rush was looking very nice. Hmmmmmm.... carbon crack'n'fail... Eye-wink
