Hi Guys, please help.. what cheaper blades can be use on a XX twin blade setup. Werner

buying SANTA CRUZ tall boy from my epic partner. he'sbuying new Tall boy. I am kinda tall almost 1.9m so bigger 29 does make sense especially since doing epic 2012 and allot of marathons. thanks for asking

Got Crest rims. any tyre suggestions? has anyone run the wolverine? I loved this tyre on my 26

Hi guys, have a new 29er, On my 26 I used any kind of tyre as a tubeless setup. Can I do the same with 29er? For example. Can I run a Crossmark tyre as tubeless even if its not UST? another example: race king UST and race king not UST: will both work on my tubeless wheels? Werner

Please help experts If I have a XX crankset, but the rings is wearing. I want to know if anyone has foung good chainrings too use on this crankset. Chainrings that is not so expensive but greatly compatible. Want to order through CRC. Please help. Werner

Same issue here Bergbok.. Alow me also to ask Mintsauce, your oppinion: I Dentet my American Classic. The tubeless seal was broken after the impact. Fterward my tubeless seals again, but dent is still there. Will a good shop be able to repair dent in the rim? Werner

Thanks for those who gave good advice. Guys thanks for the caution advice. When you check you'l see that a seatpost is often made so long that someone 2m can use the thing. If a lady i 1.6m. You win alot of weight by cutting the thing. Bearing in mind re-sel will give issue. Thanks

I want to save weight. My ritchey WCS is much longer than needed. Can I cut it or will there be consequences? How should it be cut? Any spare lenght regulations? Werner

Hi Gents, please give me your advice to steer me in the right direction. I am doing the epic and love to be on the bike for long hours. I have been on harder saddles and I seem to be ok as long as the saddle fit my bum (you know what I mean.) I need some advice on saddles that is lightweight yet strong enough to face external beatings like on the epic. I weigh 82kg. This one shop in town really backs specialized saddles. (even though they do sell fizik.) Please speak up. If you can, provide the weight of your saddle choice aswell and your experience on it. (Off course its my responsibility to buy the right size for personal fitting purposes.) Werner

Gents if anyone can help with this random question i'l be surprised. what is the weight of the seatpost that comes on the spark 30/20. It is branded as scott. It is the 34.9 seatpost. Has anyone weiged this baby? Werner

Hi Gents, please help. Ridinh a spark 30. I hav upgraded my whole bike almost to my perfect ideal bike. One problem: SEATPOST. Scott uses a really thick seatpost and I cant find any light seatposts at 34.9 mm. Please help Werner
