My Contribution. The DT Swiss have been replaced with Crest's and the XT crank has been replaced with an FSR Carbon crank. Also have the XTR short cage rear derailleur with the switch to tension the chain over bumpy terrain.

If the 29ers are that good why is there so many for sale on the Hub?

 

Maybe we should start a poll and ask the blokes who sold 29ers what their reasons were, could be very enlightning..

 

I think you just answered your own question ;)

What does your dad think of the Ikon - Aspen combo?

 

He is very satisfied with the combo. The Aspen Exception is just not as strong as the Ikon Exception 3C Exo Protection. So for a more durable combo I would use Ikon front and back. A very good and strong, and light! The Racing Ralphs are crap, took my front one off, Riding a Aspen Foldable which I got for free, much better grip than RR. RR doesn't last either.

 

My dad has only got 1 puncture in 8months, he is 105kgs so it's allright!

Hmmmm.

 

The exception series has a shockingly thin sidewall with the Ikon foldable weighing almost exactly the same with a higher profile and thicker sidewall, so a very big improvement design wise from Maxxis.

 

I ride a normal foldable Aspen on the front with a Racing Ralph EVO on the back, and am very happy.

 

Got the Ikon 3C last week and want to try that out.

 

Also have two Rocket Ron EVO's I want to try out.

 

So there is quite a number of combo's I can try. :drool:
