Cheers Taylor,

I was going with the Saguaro as I've used them before and found them fast rolling and hardwearing whilst handling well.

Thanks

Evening all, Bought some Sunringle Black flag 29er wheels, which have a rim licenced by Stans no tubes. They came with a nice light set of Schwalbe Racing Ralphs, and after 2 rides out and 2 punctures causes by nothing and leaving quite large holes in the tyres, I'm starting to think they may be 2 t...

I've used both, there's a thread on here about my kanga, I liked the idea and extra attachment points, but switched to the wildcat lion and wouldn't go back to be ...

I use some Lowepro ones I've had for years when I remember

Light weight gaiters are great in principle, but this is an area that gets a fair bit of abuse.

Has anybody tried / use the ankle ones that some fell runners use?

Very cool, bet he'll remember that for a long time!

I'd be interested in the argon 90 version,

Do you quilt using folk reckon you could use this 'over' a sleeping bag effectively?

Thanks for the organisation, here's hoping it works out

Cheers folks, I used the hairdryer approach and it worked, the tape looked ok in terms of it being on, but have decided to use it just on the downtube and forks. Like the matt black finish of the frame, and in all honesty the frame bags haven't marked the frame I have already with this finish so wil...

Quick question,

Building up my new bike over the next month or so, but want to still have 2 bikes....

Looking at groupsets, some good buys to be had. I currently have XT, do you reckon I'll notice a difference with the SLX kit?

Thanks

Drew

Just need to sort some wheels!

Thanks
