I find the GoPro has really annoying audio, picking up too much wind and there always seems to be something tapping that the camera picks up. The Contour Roam, you hear nothing. The mic is so weak you might as well not have it.
Here is a comparison for you. Both of these were shot at the same time. One is a GoProHero HD, the other a Contour Roam. It was a wet, dark day. But awesome riding :)
We were comparing cameras and to see who could make a better video in a hour or so. The interesting thing was we set...
Interesting you say that. A mate of mine (total enduro XC rider) had a "light" step off and run crash on a flat XC trail on his, unfortunately it came in contact with a rock on the rear stay. The rear stay snapped off at both ends where it joins. He is the process of getting a crash...
Having ridden my DHR and the above TR450 back to back a couple of weekends ago. The main things I found that felt similar, where the way they felt and tracked through corners. The TR, may have felt better in the pedals. The DHR felt better in the air (may have been the weight difference), a...
Sheriff who last I knew was working for Zip wheels, taught me about 14years ago, he had a couple of tricks that he reckoned helped. Mind you I had a crash today on my XC bike and taco'ed the front wheel so bad that it would go through the fork. :(
I will question the wheel build Viv, where did you get it done? Local or OS or yourself.
I have a couple tips I would share with you depending on where the build was done. Anything is worth a try. PM me if you don't want to post or catch me on FB.
Hopefully this works.
It was an awesome result, I so bad wanted one of the two in this picture to be the winner
I have no voice today from yelling so hard.
The Chicks were soooo fast too, Made me wonder just how slow I would be down the course. haha
Port a potty's and hole in the ground thunderboxes don't flush.
Two more days of work and I am on the way. Can't wait, it will be exciting to see who has the best tactics.
The weekend is going to be a mess with the drug Aussies everywhere. Keep an open mind if watching on freecaster or whatever, as there will most likely be feedcuts due to the level of drunken nudity on course.
I know there are car loads going down from Queensland that have a $20 limit for...
Wow, you guys run a lot heavy springs than I do.
I have an 08 DHR.
But I run a 400 or 350 depending on course.

half way on the bottom out.
I use all the travel but never feel a harsh bottom out. The only time I might is if I have the 350 on and land a flattish...
How did I get dragged into this thread?
I must say that I like the feel of my Shimano's better than the Codes, but that could be due to never bleeding them once after the initial shorting of brake lines. And I got mine about a month after they came out.
Yes it is the Andy that you know. I took it as a personal attack on me, in your post. Is isn't from what you wrote so much as you wouldn't know, but because of the fact that Viv has no idea what he is doing. Gets the facts from you. I help him measure at least 207mm just to be safe and the...
But off course Internet know it all's are soooo much more reliable. Udi, you come across as such a elitist bike guru that loves to cut people down in the anonymity of the internet.
Viv, if you want an opinion stop asking every person you know and then trying to play them off against each...
I am 5'10" as well. Have ridden Big Dan's medium many times. Because of the way the frame drops away so nicely underneath you, all I have to do is drop the seat about an inch and I feel totally at home. This is the first of his bikes I have been able to do this with.
Awesome ride!
