Fulcrum wheels
Ok so my Joytech rear hub is well past its used by date.
So I think I would like to invest in a lighter tubless wheelset (for $400) and found that the Fulcrum Red Metal 3s look like they mean business.
They would be used on the 26" Trance with 15mm front thru-axle. 9mm QR on the back!
Discuss.

Freehub compatability
I'm looking at replacing the drive-train on my bike from 8 speed, to 10 speed by buying a new groupset, and wanted to know if the freehub i'm running is compatible with a 10 speed shimano cassette?
Here's a link to the hub: http://www.novatecwheels.com/novatec/english/p_s...

Mount Annan Botanic Garden update for 26 Sep
My first laps of Mount Annan today. A fantastic facility that was in great condition, totally dry all over. Would get very hot out there in summer, only disappointment is the open/close times.
Highly recommended if your out that way.

camden river/ mount Annan and return
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.

Havent done this one for a while, start out on the winding single track along the banks of the Nepean river. Then follow various fire roads that link us to mount annan ( this includes a short hike a bike section at menangle) a loop of mount Annan single track, then return back the way we came to camden river, about 40km all up . Start time is negotiable.

1x9 options
I'm definitely going to go 1x9, but what options do I have? The widget looks fantastic, but changing the ring size is costly.
Other options? Please note that I am running M970 XTR cranks. My current middle chainring needs replacing. The only option I can find is the genuine Shimano 32t at around $100.
Maybe some fellow members are keen to sell a 2nd hand 32t widget? Ultimately, I'd love to be able to swap out a 32t for a 28t on rare occasions.

Best bike for Mount Annan
I'm off to Mount Annan tomorrow for the first time. Am I better off taking my Enduro or my Flash 29HT?
