Lies, no tyres less than 2.1 in width allowed! :D

Phew! One of mine just scraped in!

I'm off to Llandegla for the first time tomorrow at the crack of dawn. Looking forward to Parallel Universe :D

Anyone here been on it, any other highlights to look out for?

Parallel Universe is ace. I liked the rest of the black too, it's not your usual black though, it's pretty easy and non technical. Just means you can hit it faster :D

The skills area is really good to play on too.
 
Dalby Red again tomorrow, again sort of a fitness test for me.
I shall try and beat my last time, again on the hardtail.

Will probably hurt as I was kick boxing on Wednesday and my legs still kill.

But No Pain no Gain !

Working Night shifts is starting to have its benefits again this summer :p
 
Anyone any experiance with the Truvativ HammerSchmidt chainsets, they look like a brilliant idea to have all the benifits of a double chainset and a single one at the same time.

My Brother in law has one.
I had an overwhelming sense of "meh" -> another problem i foresee is maintenance.

1 x 10 speed is the way forward, especially with the new SLX 10 speed stuff coming out.
 
Your guys are annoying and going to cost me a fortune.

Ever since i have been reading this thread of gone from being happy with my bike to wanting a new frame, now im looking at going for 10speed and single front ring. Nice shiny new SRAM X0 10speed short cage looks nice, shame i cant find an XX short cage. That XX 10 speed cassett looks tastey as well but im shocked at the price.
 
34t ring up front, 36t out back - you'll never need that granny ring!

Yeah but I also ride my bike on the road to get to some places so I like being on the big cog up front and small on the back to get speed up :).

If you can afford more than 1 bike then I agree but mine has to be more than just a trail bike.
