    Pretty much any double or triple chainset will take a Race Face NW chainring (I think)

    I can certainly vouch for Shimano anyway, as I run XT crank arms with a single NW on my steed.

    I’d say your forks are knackered.

    Looks like stress marks in the paint – not good.

    Knog Blinder is superb – very bright, loads of settings & excellent battery life.

    I looked at your house and it didn’t fink no-one was in, so thought I’d try the neighbour

    I took delivery of my wheels from Wiggle via DX yesterday.

    I missed them on Wednesday, so arranged re-delivery for yesterday & they did turn up.

    The driver said:

    “I didn’t see a car in the driveway, so assumed nobody was home”

    Unbelievable!

    Going to get a set of Hope Enduros for it so I’ll get the rear adaptor at the same time.

    You will also need the 12mm axle itself.

    I recently got a frame with a 142 x 12mm back end, but it came with one.

    I believe there are 3 different types…..

    Been running one for 6 months on my commuter – flawless.

    Still trying to find the weight of a 2souls Quarterhorse frame.

    My full build came in at bang on 30lbs, pictured here:

    Roughly speaking, I think in XL flavour, the frame must weigh 6lbs.

    I think it does.

    If you are buying new wheels anyway, you not just as well trying it out?

    I have 3.

    1) Alp-X 2.0 GT AS Gore-Tex for the wet rides.

    2) Cosmo softshell for general cold mtb outings.

    3) Phantom 2 for commuting.

    Love them all.

    IMO, they are indeed as good as they say.

    Via the link you posted:

    A RS Stealth dropper is listed at the bottom of the page as a related product, so safe to say it is Stealth compatible?

    Do you not wonder how naff you will look in your cheap green helmets?

    Eh, no – it matches my bike! Doh.

    I’m guessing you missed out….. :D

    Ok.

    I’ve ruled tubeless out in the past, but now thinking I should reconsider.

    Carbon rims – pffft! May aswell…..

    My S-Works seatpost came with 2 top clamps:

    1 for Alloy rails & 1 for 7 x 9mm carbon rails.

    Dianese Trail Skins?

    Don’t have them (yet) but they look good.

    Nice & low profile, supposed to be very comfortable.

    Slacken the rear a few turns & tighten the front.

    You are currently set to 12°

    Troy Lee A1 is without a doubt the best helmet I’ve owned so far.

    Extremely comfortable.
