Thanks JB. Your tips worked out perfectly for me. My rim seems to be holding out perfectly at about 4 bar.

Love my spark and the price that I paid for it. Can't go wrong with the Scott.

Thanks

It would be great if I could get some views on whether it would be better to pack your bike with extra weight rather than having the extra weight on your back when riding long technical off-road rides? To me it seems as if my control improves and energy consumption reduces with more bike weight (same weight overall). Any views?
