Cradle Quest 2011

Recommended Posts

Well, the Downhill World Champ is an Ex-Moto X dood so you are in good company. I did my fair bit of off-road Enduro riding back in my wasted youth, but I love the freedom, quietness and simplicity of MTB. And the rush when you release the brakes on a lekka downhill!

 

You have Shimano SPD's? there is an adjustment screw in the pedal to change the clip in tension. No need to throw money at the problem.

Yes I have Shimano's. I have adjusted the setting, but will look at it again. I tell you, if it wasn't for the bike's suspension on Saturday, I would have been hurt. It saved me a couple of times. Its a full suspension 96 3000D. I really felt for the guys with the hardtails.

Rode everything except when i walked going up that last hill. Yeah my GF also on a hard tail said she put a foot down once on that section when someone else got it quite wrong in front of her, otherwise she said it was ok. But very rocky especially since you have just finished a climb.

Oi Gords / Swift01...good job meneer. 11th on training bike weighing close to 13kg + fixing punctures. You deserved your beer my son :thumbup:
