    Combo? He said that he had been running the bikes back and forth and noticed it... 

    How much heavier can or be? From what I can see, it's only the dropouts that are different. 

    That's a tms combo not a silex (red bike you posted).

    Noticed what?

    It's about 200g difference.

  2. Ali used to use the extreme brand one. I was going to get an 80x40 trialtech but it wasn't in stock, I emailed trialtech and they said it was just back in stock and should be with dealers soon,this was a month or two ago though. Tartybikes not got any?

  3. I'm forgetting you have a fourplay currently, having the bars inline with headtube works really well on the arcade/console, because the fork is directly inline with the headtube. I'm not sure on the fourplay and I didn't run my bars inline with the headtube when I had one, I ran them further forward.

  4. Some tyres are just a bitch, take it off, get tyre soap if you know someone with at a tyre fitting garage. I used dove extra moisturising last time, rub it round bead and rim, then reinflate it until you hear it pop on. Then check the line on the tyre all the way round make sure it's an even gap. I did one 3 or 4 times once. No rim or tyre bead damage?

    Just extracted the tube from the closet, seems to be 2.2mm wall thickness, probably more than the holy rollers lol

     

    But yeah, I'm not sure about the contis. They're bloody expensive. And if it ain't broke don't fix it (in my case). Would need to try them first I think.

     

    Another thing is they last a really long time. I'm sure you'd get through 2 pairs of maxxis before one conti is bald.
