  1. Usually 2 750 ml bottles is plenty for me for 60ks. Even then I find the sweet stuff gives me tummy cramps if I have too much, then can't have anything. Now trying 32gi, seems better. Chow cheddars and superCs.
  2. Slight wobble at those speeds and you're going to bleed. Properly.
  3. I've had my ex8 for two years. Love it. The suspension system is awesome and climbs like a mamba. Just make sure you get right size.
  4. Greg I have done the tubeless conversion on the original wheel set on my ex 8 and they have been hundreds. Now on crossmarks but enjoyed the bontrager xdx on them as well.
  5. Don't think there's a right answer for everyone. I put 2.1 crossmark lust on front and back before S2C this year and loved them. Fast on the flats and climbs and magic for me on the singletrack. I'm not going to scare anyone with my single track speed however... Struggled in the mud a bit last weekend but I would have struggled with tractor tyres.
  6. Hey Def I have riden an EX8 for the last 2 years and I love it. You wont be sorry bru. I am 1.78 tall and bought a virtual 17.5. At the time the bikes came with a virtual and real size which was a bit confusing and I really stressed about what size to get and read opinions from ous all over that varied. In the end I got smaller of the 2 mediums, changed the headtube height and put on a layback seat post, and its been the bomb. Done me proud for 2 years and going strong. Been meaning to cut the bars a bit narrower but havent done that yet. Good luck.
