Frame protection (wrapping my new baby in cotton wool)
OK so the new bike is on it's way and all I can do now is wait and shop for accessories I know it's going to get scratched eventually but for the time being I would like to try keep it looking new...
Just curious what everyone thinks are necessary items?
I have a rear mud guard at the moment which comes in useful for those wet rides, and was thinking about investing in either a front mud guard or down tube guard to keep the crap off my rear shock and derailleur.

Who needs a shuttle with this?
Saw this in a magazine, they sell for US$3500, no license in most US states, and fully customisable in 250 colours.

Hope Pro II 10mm through bolt conversion
Hey all,
i bought the 10mm through bolt converter for my 9mm QR proII rear hub.
does anyone know how to perform the conversion? are there instruction somewhere?
i am very mechanically minded, so i'm not paying the LBS to do it, unless i absolutely have to.
thanks

Whistler photos finally posted
Ok so i finally got photos of our Whistler trip posted! (found under http://nobmob.com/image/tid/2782 ). Paul and I had planned a trip to the US and Canada (4 week holiday - 5 days in NY then picked up a car in LA and drove up the West Coast with a detour to Donneville (Near Lake Tahoe) to ride (and test ride a SC Blur, Nomad and Ibis Mojo) then back into Oregon, drive through Washington and into Canada, thru Montana, Idaho, Utah, and back into Calif) and as luck would have it Delicious had also planned a trip to Whistler around the same time.
