New Brakes Avid Elixr - bigger rotors worth it?
Well it's time to get some new brakes and I have been looking at the Avid Elixir R's mainly as they are at a nice price point and seem to get quite good reviews.
My question is related to the rotor size and if there is any disadvantage (apart from a little more weight) upgrading to the 8" rotors from the current 6" I have now. And if I will have any issues fitting the larger rotors. My bike is currently fitted with Tektro Auriga Comp brakes/rotors.

Ride around Colo Heights/ Putty
Has anyone ridden any of the trails up in the Colo Heights/Putty area?
Mainly looking at the commission trail, culoul fire trail and the Womerah range trail (coming in from the Putty rd.
I was thinking of doing a loop of the commission trail, hunter main, howes valley then kindarun trails at putty. Or, I'm thinking a ride down the womerah to St albans, stay the night then ride back the next day. Looks to be a big ride though.

Interesting reading about how our cuzzy bro's are managing MTB access to NZ national parks...

Seating (tires)
Jpack, inflate the Nevegal on the 819 rim with a tube inside. This will seat both beads. Carefully remove one bead, and the tube. Put the tubeless valve in, and the dose of latex. Massage the tube to try and reseat the bead again as much as possible, even just getting it behind the safety bead but on the land area will help. Then inflate.
