    Last weekend at Worlds I got a chance to visit with a lot of old friends who still travel the WC circuit. I spoke with quite a few riders, mechanics, and teams.

    Remembering Kyle Bielenberg

    Kyle was a good friend to many of us. I first met him at Big Bear in 2001 or 2002. He had just started racing downhill the previous year and was absolutely on fire.

    12mm thru axle X135 28 hole hub???

    Anyone out there ever seen one of these or know where I can get one? I'm looking to lace a DEEMAX to a 12X135 hub. The DEEMAX is 28 hole. I'd rather not build a hub, but I'm running out of options. Anyone else run into this before? What did you do? Dave
