  1. awsome!!
  2. are shimano the only cup and cone hub makers left? or are there other brand hubs that use cup and cone??
  3. Island tribe is very good!!
  4. failing that you could drill the head of (but be very careful not to damage anything else)
  5. I used crossmarks for a few year, and was moderately happy with them. They last long, but a quite heavy. I know use Specialized Fast track, and they are VERY nice, fast light and not to expensive (I think R450 for 2bliss model.) They only proble is that I seem to get a disproportionately high amount of small cuts in the tread from stone with them.
  6. I had juicys on my previous anthem, not I have Elixir's on my new Anthem. Massive difference in performance! The E's are so much better and crisper than the J's!!
  7. You should keep that under your bed at night, as a self defense weapon!!!!
  8. Hi JB. So I am ok to still run these rings when I replace my chain and cassette in the next few hundred k's?
  9. I just thought that you would get at least 5k km out of a set of front rings??
  10. Hi Shimano SLX, on a Giant Anthem x1 bike done about 3200k, had two new chains in that time. I am not having an chain suck or shifting issues yet, but was just wondering, as they look pretty trashed to me, or is this considered normal usable wear?? http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs254.snc1/10133_166246916075_591936075_3367589_2834254_n.jpg
  11. Sounds to me like another case of LBS becoming LRS (local ripoff shop)
  12. Awesome story, I bet you were white as a sheet after that!!! Glad to hear you made it out ok!!
  13. I bet you must have gotten the fright of your life!!!! Did you manage to paddle the ski back??
  14. thanks what is going to last longer??
  15. Any known issues??
  16. very nice enjoy. I also own one of those, and the great thing about them is that it is light enough to race, but strong enough to have some fun and take some big hits!!!!
  17. well done nice work. lovely bike!!!!!!!
  18. pop the bearings in the freezer, and warm up the frame with a hairdryer, and they should just pop in.
  19. Hi Take a look at the numbers on the seals and pop down to your local bearing supplier.
