  1. Hi Guys, can anybody tell me the difference techinically, about the rim profile of the am classics vs the ZTR 355's, and can you ride AM classiscs in a tubeless configuration as you would the 355's. I know that with the Stans you just need a tubeless valve and rim tape to ride tubeless. Is this the same for the am classics? and are they just as good? I can get these for about the same price but am not sure what to go for. Please somebody help, or just post an opinion. I would like to hear what you guys think about this. Thanks thys
  2. hi guys, need help urgently.... I am building my own light (3 Cree Q5) with a bflex driver. What is the best battery to use for this. 1)http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.12821 2400mAh 11.1V 15C Rechargeable Lithium Battery Pack (for helicopter actually) OR 2)http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.5790 TrustFire Protected 18650 Lithium Battery (2500mAh 2-Pack Blue) but I would use 4 cells (ie x2 pack x2) The both work out about the same in price so I would need to know the best performer. Not sure how to work it out... Thanks Thys
  3. hi guys, I am looking for anybody who can help with a suitable housing for a diy light. For those that have found where to get these, it's probably top secret as they are now selling them, but I promise not to move in on your market. I just want one housing to do a diy light. I am wanting to use a 3 cree lens which is 48.16mm in dia and need the end cap to close the back off. lets see if there is anybody out there who can assist. Thanks thys

  8. Hi guys and gals, looking for some advice on Stans MTB wheels. Looking for a very light set of MTB wheels. I have heard that Stans are really light and strong. there are quite a few in his range, which ones are around R1350grams or lighter? What cost? where can I source? which habs and spoke are used for that? Thanks all Thys
  9. A mate of mine is keen to invest in a pair of Zipps for his normal road racing bike. He asked me for some advice and now I ask you guys. Zipp 202's or Zipp 303's. He is a strong rider weighing in at about 78kgs. He is looking for something light and stiff for those nasty little climbs! I am not too sure what the technical differences are between the two wheels sets. Please help! Any ideas on where to buy them at a good price as well. Thanks, Thys
