ODI Rogue grips

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Looking to change the grips on my 2014 Giant Anthem 27.5, What attracted me initially was the larger grip size, for bigger hands, comfort and grip. Does anyone ride these?

Do any perth shops stock them?

WTB Easton Converter from 15mm to QR

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

A friend has some Easton EA90 (or EC90s) that they bought for a bike with a 15mm through axle. When it came it had some caps to make it QR compatible. The now want to put the wheels on another bike that has Quick release fork and they can't find these caps anywhere. Easton is between distributors in OZ at the moment so if anyone has these caps or knows where to get them please PM me.

Knee replacement

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

After putting up with the pain of damaged knees for the past few years and having just retorn all but one ligament and shredded what was left of the miniscus and articular cartilages, I'm going for knee replacement surgery and looks like it will be total knee replacement, but deciding if I can get away with the less radical surface replacement.

So the question is - anyone still riding MTB's after these types of surgery. Any recommendations/suggestions/information? Any and all info will be appreciated.

Avag,day

Is a 29er faster than a 26er

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.
Below is a preview, click to read the full post

In the market to by a hard tail to compete on there are some very good bikes selling with top spec components that are sub 10kgs but are 26 inch bikes
Is there realy that much difference in how much energy it would take to finish a race at the same speed and time as it would take on a 29er

I have a 26 fun bike that I love plus my duel suspension 29er that I have done a couple of races on cant realy feel that much different between then

Tubless

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Ok read a bit but still can't find out what I need to go tubless

I have tubless ready rims bontragers and ust tyres maxis cross mark and maxis ignitor so what else do I need I think it just sealant and the valve stems

Any info would be great as everything I seem to read is all about conversion with non tubles rims

Thanks in advance

Ayup Light Upgrades

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

I'm considering upgrading my Ayup lights (2009 versions) and was wondering if anyone has any feedback on this.
Looking at upgrading the intermediate light on the bars for the new "flood" version from Ayup.

Cheers,

Chris.
