my spine hurts watching the women hang up on a 50 foot set :eek:

nice to see em go for the last jump,

Poor ragot, must have been quite far ahead to still get second

gettothechopper · 1 Jul 2012 at 19:49

impressed she got straight up - that was a nasty nasty landing

Wow, more excitement in the 30mins of that women's dh than a lot of the past few weekends!

Anyone tried or used the Superstar chain guides? Either the plasma or laser? seems to have a good range of spares so might be a decent purchase.

How did he get straight up from that?

New Carbon Covert info page is up with video! I'm especially interested in the **** and balls (technology).

What would you say is better value? An on one 456 evo x5 for £900 or Ragley Blue Pig for £1199.

Blue Pig is worth the extra as fork, brakes and drivetrain are better, quite big upgrades for £300. Would be good to know if the Revelation fork is a maxle though, probably is as i doubt they'd spec that fork qr.

Caseh · 2 Jul 2012 at 10:50

I'm going to call them when I get a minute, to check what damage they have, and I'll check it is a maxle as well.

Looks like a maxle in the pics.

DAMN YOU COURIER!!!!

Had these feeling all lovely (well as good as they could be) last week

(yes they're 888s with 66 lowers for some reason).

And here's a pic of the DBair on the Trek.

Ouch!! That better not happen to the 888rc2x's I've just bought! We're they insured?
