    So how many of you will be on 27.5(650b) for 2015??

    I will be. Maybe not for a while, but on my next bike(s) Just because I don't think it can be avoided. Sooner or later you wont be able to buy tires, tubes, spokes, on and on. It's not gonna make me faster. All it'll do is cost me more brake pads. Damn you industry.

    BOS Idylle - any real world reviews?

    Hi all. So, how did any of you that have ridden the Idylle feel about it not having hi and low speed settings on the compression? I feel that it's a very big part of the way the fork rides, and really like to get mine tuned in to how I like it. I have to assume that it works well, but can't get...

    stuck bearing race

    Hey. I'm trying to replace my bearings in my headset. The damn things were so old and rusty, that they exploded when I tried to hit them out. Leaving the race left in. They were fsa bearings and they're set into E Thirteen reducer cups. Does anyone have any tips for getting them out? The metal...

    Brake Hoses

    So, it's time for new hoses. Formula the one brakes. Any recommendations?

    Stem spacing question. Stem rise?

    I would run the spacers under the crown, if your stantions are long enough for what you want to achieve. I've seen tons of bikes come out of the box/shops like that. Especially the new Glory, as the giant direct mount stem isn't big enough to have the spacers running inside it.

    Formula the one problem

    I have a pair of 2010 Formula the ones. And until now they've been awesome. Last week though, the rear started acting up. The lever doesn't release after being squeezed, and needs a push with the finger to release. The guy in my local shop said he doesn't know whats wrong (just from looking at...

    Iron Horse Sunday Chain Slap

    Thanks for all the help, but it's not really about it being noisy or not.... More about the state of the rear triangle. Kinda looks like it's been attacked by a small angle grinder around the chain and damages the gear cable outer too.

    Iron Horse Sunday Chain Slap

    Is that the spring in the derailler, or the spring in the cage? The cage was new when I built the bike.

    Iron Horse Sunday Chain Slap

    Hi, I've had my Sunday for ages now, and have always had a massive problem with the chain slap against the rear triangle. I just cover the thing in old inner tube and get on with life. But I would, one day maybe like to solve the issue. Does anyone have the same problem, or know how to fix it...

    Tignes bike park - any experience?

    Also, would be pretty cool to ride the world cup track in Val D'Isere. and you can take the road down to the lowest part of Tignes and get the lift from there.

    Tignes bike park - any experience?

    I know they spent a lot of money revamping Tignes a couple of years ago. And this is the last summer they're offering free passes too. I also reckon you can camp and ride for free, so that frees up some cash. But, I havn't been, so I can't comment on the trails.... Are there any good helmet cams...
