New Rings..etc.

While I am not riding at the moment...its time to look at doing some home maintenance..
The drive train is not looking so flash at the moment but will need to be service soon.

So I am looking at replacing Chain Rings, Cassette and Chain. Shocked

Would like to know what people thought about the Race Face Chainrings in particular or any other drivetrain components for that matter.
This research will go along way for getting the best klms out on the bike...

Cheers

Shane

Hello

Hi everyone my names Matt

Just thought i'd introduce myself. I intend to go on one of your rides as i finally got round to getting a decent(by my standards, probably not yours) bike (Trek 6300) and would like to go riding however finding people to go with has always been a problem in my somewhat limited experience.

A bit about myself im 19 and live in Terrey Hills. I attend UNI and work part time.

From what i gather from reading the site i simply turn up on a schedualed event? correct?

Anyway looking forward to haveing a ride soon. Maybe tommorrow, though not sure.

Broken 2008 GT Brand New!

I finally upgraded my Apollo Ascension to a 2008 GT Avalanche 1 tonight. Got it home and did 2 laps in the backyard to feel it out. It had a click sound thru the gears and then "Bang", the rear derailer holder snapped in two (forged aluminium/steel? - Broken). It looks like the chain wasnt set up right and the holder is definitely not up to grade. Lucky I wasnt half way out at Manly Dam or Cascades. Anyway back to the shop tomorrow - bugger as I was going out tomorrow at 6:30am, which I still will on the Apollo. These things happen!!!
