Bruce Ridge update for 06 Oct

Area: 
Bruce Ridge
Status: 
Green/Open

Went for a ride last night and the trail fairies have been out in force lately with a lot of new log roll overs. Also seems like there have been more people riding there as the tracks were a lot cleaner with better grip than I remember. Saw three other groups of people so about 8 riders in total.

Do you have more information?

Avid elixir cr Mag matchmaker compatibility

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Looking at purchasing some avid elixir cr Mag brakes from a friend who has no use for them.

I currently run avid juicy 7 with match maker brackets and SRAM x0 9 speed.

Research I have done tonight indicates that the avid elixir cr brakes have a new U-Clamp which is MatchMaker X (MMX) compatible.

my question is can these brakes be mounted on my existing matchmaker brackets with SRAM x0 9 speed shifters ?

Do I have to buy new matchmaker x brackets and if so will these be compatible with my SRAM xo 9 speed shifters ?

Wheels - Technical Info

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Forgive me for my naivety but I need some quite basic technical help on wheels. I need to replace my 26" MTB wheels but I'm confused as to what all the jargon means. I ride a Specialized Epic Expert '09. The hard terrain of Manly Dam has destroyed the DT Swiss XL420SL rims beyound truing. The hubs are still in great condition. These wheels are super light but just can't handle the rocky terrain I frequently ride. Any tips on strong all mountain wheels greatly appreciated too.

The jargon:

What does "Centre-Lock" mean? How do I know these will fit?

What have I done?

Today I went out for a ride and being the curious person i was. Deciding to twist these knobs on my gear changer. These I later realised were for my cable tension and the bike doesn't seem to change as smoothly as before(note:I twisted them heaps). Can anyone help me out or should i go into my local bike store and get them to help me out?
