  1. Yes the SLX drivetrain is fine, but the fork?
  2. Hopefully closer to 12kg
  3. I was looking at getting a getting an HT, but is difficult to get a good deal. For me the price should drop quite a bit even if the bike is reletavely new due to the warranty not being carried over Stuff are just way overpriced
  4. How do they run at these lower pressures? Don't feel too flat?
  5. Looks like the GP5000 has the best protection of the more racier options, maybe thats why it is also slightly heavy at 300g for a 25C Would love to run a 28C, but think I might struggle to fit one at the back
  6. I had the 25C of these, both got cut pretty quickly, Maybe was just bad luck and not bad tires But yes, the rolled really well, pretty comfy and was quite light (think about 255g for the TLR)
  7. Appears to be a bit hit and miss. My Hutchinson Fusion 5 both did not last long and both got cut with less than a 1000km on each Vittoria Corsa 2.0 I am running now are decent, but don't seem to roll very fast (or at least feels that way compared to my GP4000 clinchers I had). They hold air well and grip well in the wet. Ride is a bit harsh, but think I am running my pressures to high. Still at 7bar rear and 6.7bar front (I am about 80kg), maybe need to go closer to 6bar.
  8. Just got a set of Vittoria Corsa 25C TLR Graphene 2.0's. Roll really well, will have to see about durability and puncture protection
  9. Very true. This is also the same with bikes (maybe stuff like 2015 and older). Some sellers are just adverting for unreasonable amounts, close to cost of new models A bike already loses so much value immediately after you get it new from a store. Warranty ect. I have been looking at for a reasonable hardtail, but the pricing is just to high
  10. 1H 10M for 31km with all the stops you did. Damn that is fast
  11. Reasonably happy with my 2.35 Ikon upfront, as I am looking for better rolling rather than cornering So maybe my question for the rear tyre is more 2.25 vs 2.35? The Rekon Race just looks fast Have to do a lot of riding on tarmac
  12. Hi guys Looking for a fast rolling rear for hardpack, gravel and tar. Maxxis Aspen 2.25 or Maxxis Rekon Race 2.35?
  13. My latest order took 10days from order to delivery in Worcester
  14. +1 Riding the Fusion 5 TLR Performance 11Storm, very happy Think they compare very well to GP4000S II I rode on my previous bike with latex tubes
  15. Hope it fits Was in contact with Dale and he said my Spark would accommodate 2 x 500ml
