Great Website for Buying Tyres
Just stumbled accross this website while reading reviews on tyres. The prices are very good (about $45 for Nobby Nic's or Racing Ralph's). The key though is that the delivery charge seems to be a flat rate of EUR30 regardless of the order (which is normally where you get smacked with Jenson etc). www.bike24.net Apologies if this is a well known website!!
Help! I need a helmet cam buddie
Having recently acquired a new 'Hero helmet cam' I quickly realised it makes pretty dull post ride viewing if you're on your own! If anyone fancies doing a couple of laps of the dam at the weekend let me know. I usually do a lap in around 40 mins so I guess I'm about average fitness. I'm originally from the UK and can't wait to send the footage home to show my mates what they're missing in the northern beaches.
Ourimbah - Saturday 12th July
I'm heading to Ourimbah this Saturday morning to do some training laps for Doctor & Scott.
If anyone's interested in joining me, i'd enjoy the company.
I'll be there from around 7 - 7:30 till about 10:30 - 11pm
3-4 laps i hope, Tho riding past the car each lap is pretty hard.
C-mon (leighton Hewitt style)
GAZZA SHUTTLE
No joke, this tire is called a GAZZA SHUTTLE:
Which is rather ironic given it has more hair than him! 
Newbie looking to ride
Hi! My name is Winco. Just bought first MTB. GT Av1.0. Nice 'n shiny! Needs to get dirty. Have been riding and practising on-road but would now like to get stuck into some offroad riding. Need someone to go riding with to show me the ropes/where to go on Manly Dam, Terry Hills, etc. Anybody interested or can I join up with anyone going riding this weekend locally.
Thanks - Winco
Increasing stroke length
I have my eye on upgrading the septune shock on my 05 Stumpy 120.
It's a 7.5 x 1.75, but I can only find a 7.5 x 2.00 for a replacement (Fox float)
Will the extra .25 inch stroke make much/any difference to the fit or geometry etc
I recently updated my fork to one with 140mm travel from the previous 130mm if this has any relevence to the answer.
Single speeds
GDAY FOLKS,
have been keen to get into single speed riding for a while now
and have started looking around at options
am looking for a 26" medium frame w/ a 80 to 100 mm fork
something i could ride around the streets, maybe even a lap of manly dam
have rung most of the bike shops and no real positive response
Being an engineer, was contemplating buying an old 2nd hand XTC or similar,
cutting out old hangers and welding in horizontal drop outs,
fitting a conversion kit and running 32-16? ratio??
am hoping to keep cost below $1000
any ideas and info would be appreciated
