matt middler Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 am i the only one who still thinks a compact road cassette and a short cage xtr/dura-ace mech is totally hawt?I was going to use Road cassette and short cage mech on my new bike, but everyone seems to be running single speed now.Nothing wrong with them, its just that guy had a massive cassette and a normal Shimano XT mech.

Janson Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 i know and i totally agree.i was just saying how a nice road cassette and a nice mech looks tonnes sweeter than all the bodged tensioners nowaways.. shame gears are shite for trials.

F-Stop Junkie Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 When the 'rules' changed in the British Rounds so EVERYONE had to have ankle protection - funny how it only lasted a year (after everyone had bought shitty Monty boots from........oh yeah, the people who run the championship and set the rules!!!) Still pisses me off!! Mrs Matthews in Essex "That's a 5" - lovely woman. Wasn't that when you wrote 'f**k the shoe rule' on the back of your helmet? I have a photo of that somewhere... The Matthews and Dave Bradbury were my first trial organisers, and you never forget your first What about when the best trials parts came from the US? Plaz pads, Threshold bits, all the things you saw on Goatwheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sedona was a great rear tyre, but such a low profile tread that it wasn't great for 10 months of the year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
