Wheelset choice for AM bike
I'm planning on building an All Mountain bike. Something like a Santa Cruz Nomad or the like. It'll be used for riding around Sydney at places such as Red Hill and the Dam. Perhaps even down to Thredbo occasionally but not often. However I'm a bit unsure on wheelset choice.
The two I had in mind were the Mavic Crossmax SX or the Hope Hoops (Pro II hubs with Stan's ZTR Flow rims).
Mavics are lighter and do tubeless without tape. The Hope's have convertible hubs that fit almost any axle, meant to be reliable and have spokes which are easy to replace by any bike shop.
Fork making a squelchy noise
Hi NobMobbers,
My forks have started making a squelchy noise during the rebound & I'm wondering if this is something to be concerned about. It kinda sounds like the internal oil might have air bubbles as it gets forced throughout the workings.
Does this mean a major service is required, something with a quick DIY fix, or should I just ignore it?
The fork seems to be performing as normal, but not being an expert on these things, my perception of normal might be off the mark.

Goodbye to Lidsdale Ride
Just got a call from SF and it would appear they need to move the logging of Lidsdale forward. Infact logging may start on the Eastern side of Forest Ridge Road as early as October.
Anyway thought it might be nice to get a fairwell to the forest ride happening sometime mid october.
The plan would be hit up the XC loop on the Sunday morning and then head over the highway to play around on the steeper more technical trails in the hardwood in the afternoon.
anyone keen?
