  1. yes, if you are the first owner, they will (should replace) If your not, then I doubt weather they will.
  2. My DT Swiss/Mavic 819's also do this
  3. Thanks for the hard work, and for the awesome forums!
  4. This is what I try to do, on longer training rides, I ride with my camelbak MULE, and I load that bad boy up to the gills, everything goes with, jacket food, 3l of fluid ect (plus one full bottle on my bike). When I race, I just take bottle/bottles. I definitely think I can feel a huge difference on race day with less weight on my back! were this is psychological or not, I don't care, the fact is I feel faster!!!!
  5. Thanks BR-L, that was an interesting read, you have obviously thought this all through before. I was not really going to try to take 2kg off my bike, it was just hypothetical. However, I am contemplating taking 5kg of my beer belly...
  6. I am 186, and weigh about 83kg. I wonder if there would be a huge difference if I could get down to 77, but keep the same power?
  7. Hi While I was climbing a long mountain pass this weekend during the Kat Classic MTB race, I was thinking, what would make more of a difference to climbing. My bike losing 2kg's, or me losing 2kg's? ( not that I could get my Anthem down to 9kg in a hurry on my limited budget) I weigh 83 and my Anthem X1 is probably about +/- 11kg
  8. those look lovely!!
  9. good luck
  10. is this the same guy who was at the sani2c lat year?
  11. Not that I am inciting violence (like the ANCYL dose), but he really has got a "slap me face" .
  12. This is the problem with the ANC, all the lies and deception all the time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  13. I weigh 80kg, and run mine at about 2.5/2.8. +/- Remember pressures gauges on pumps can be very inaccurate!!!!!! These are great tires, however, they do seem a little prone to small sharp stones cutting the tread.
  14. about time!
  15. I have used Hairspray on foam grips, and it work wonders. When u want to remove the grips, just push a small screwdriver and some water, and they will slide off pretty easy.
  16. very sad news, thoughts and prayers to the family.
  17. this is quite funny sorry i you have seen it.
  18. great vid
  19. looks like an old school Deore mtb stuff
  20. Reba is good but I personally recommend the Fox.
  21. The store look good, prices are not bad either!
  22. all very nice. are the crank bros UST? and what is the weight?
  23. O yea, I didn't think about Industry 9's
  24. Hi all I have a friend (lets call him Ganesh) Ganesh is looking for some MTB wheels. His budget is +/- 7K. The wheels must be UST, and they need to be fairly strong as Ganesh rides hard, and weighs about 85kg. Any ideas?? Thanks
