50% fine.

The usual places covered by allot of canopies you have to stop and walk as it is still buried in water and mud

Chain twist & Dérailleur pulley not springing back

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

T'was cleaning the drive train with the rear wheel off and for the life of me, could not understand how the chain twisted like this.

Short of unlinking it and twisting it out, is there another quick way to untangle this mongrel?
Other google posts of jiggling it like a lipton tea bag didnt work...

Appin update for 30 Jul

Area: 
Appin
Status: 
Green/Open

Did a couple laps today on the XC loop. First time here for me, so have nothing to compare the track status to. A few wet sections and puddles but nice and tacky for most of the course. What a fun track it is. Can't wait to come back for more.

Andersons update for 30 Jul

Area: 
Andersons
Status: 
Amber/Some Issues

Andersons itself is dry dry dry. The down/up hill to Bedford Ck however has been very badly graded and is in my view unfinished. Thick deep loose mud all the way from top to bottom making todays descent and ascent very difficult and dangerous in places. It's all rideable though, just exercise some caution on the descent and HTFU on the way up.

Tubes vs Tubeless, the rematch

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

What is the current opinion of tubeless systems over tubes? Tubeless tyres seem to be almost universal amongst serious mountain bikers, but even with everyone saying "you would never go back" I am not sure if I should go that way.

The main point in favour of tubeless seems to be lack of punctures. Its not something you would do to save weight, and getting light UST rims is pricey since they are intrinsically heavier.

UST compatible rims - how to?

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Some advise needed.

Invested in a pair of UST compatible wheels and are pondering on the following:
1) Should I use that liquid sealant in them any way?
2) If I do get a flat is is just a matter of removing the fixed valve and chucking in a tube?
3) There is a warning label stating not to use tools to get the tyres on and off. Hmm, if I cant use tyre levers to get the tyre off - then how can I?
4) I normally ride on cross marks but they are on the heavy side. What's light with low rolling restistance and offer OK cornering grip?
