  1. Andro, i am using look quartz pedals at the moment and i think they are the K!@! est pedals i have used. here is why they don't click when you clip in so you never know if you are clipped in or not, which has lead to a couple of near involuntary dismounts on technical sections, and secondly i seem to bash them on rocks alot more than any other pedal, not sure if its because of the dimensions. i must say that i enjoyed the egg beaters except for the clicking sound they make when they start to wear. i think shimano pedals are probably the best all round pedals price vs function. i dont think that the price difference between xtr and xt pedals is justified though
  2. i have tried ESI grips and they arent bad but i prefer the lock grips from SRAM one of the few grips that you can clean properly

  6. do you honestly think that the annual financial report will be forth coming? i will eat humble pie if it is!! but as you i would love to see the numbers
  7. so what do we get for being registered TSA athletes? we help TSA raise the profile of the sport? negotiating power with sponsors? what sponsors?? TSA has never brought any sponsors to the sport. if it wasn't for the Lotto grant (and we know why they got that) and of course the sanction fees and day license fees they charge the event organisers they would be broke. i have never seen another governing body that does so little for their respective sports. their only concern is money!! being a member of TSA means absolutely nothing just ask Dan Hugo
  8. From what i heard. he asked his friends to tell him how he should celebrate should he win a stage at the TDF so i actually think its pretty cool! apparently every win will have a different celebration based on what his friends said
