    My wheels are coming

    Any browncoats in the tribe spot the references. Running DT Swiss 240s disc brake hubs, 88mm rims custom made from acebike.com. I have my TRP HY\RD disc brakes (lusting after the soon to be released SRAM HRD's but it's probably not going to happen any time soon, even after they hit market)...

    Emmitt Smith Grand Fondo Century on 9/17/2016 - Results

    All the best Larry and thanks to the tribe for making this happen I was going to try and convince the missus to let me put a bit forward but we are not really in a position to do this but the tribe beat me to it. Nock 'Em dead Lazza (your honourary Australian nickname)

    Chain WAXing (yes it's that easy) - and other mysteries of this art!

    So apparently we need all do away with waxing and go for constant lubrication and cleaning and it will save us 12 watts

    To chamois, or not to chamois, that is the question

    I really want to get a pair of these Merino bib shorts they will custom make them without chamois, they will also make their Jersey with side pockets. I love Merino wool, I am hopping it may address a chaffing issue I have with regular bib shorts.

    New and Improved Headrest Clamp

    Hi I would be interested in how that conversation went. I would like to think the ingenuity of our communities engineers are being rewarded. Unless it is covered by NDA

    Vendetta Yellow

    I am designing custom decals for my carbon fibre rims I am just wondering if anyone has the colour code for the vendetta yellow (RGBA, RGB, CMYK). Sure I could use an eyedropper on a photo but then there is the issue of camera etc. Thanks Barry

    Metric vs imperial measurers

    So as an Aussie I find Americas persistence with the I imperial system baffling. The only advantage I see is it may encourage you to ride further. When I ride a century (km) I feel pretty good but if I were to ride in miles I would still have 60km to go. Thoughts??

    Disc brake options / using mountain bike disc brakes

    So I want to go with hydraulic disc brakes. Eventually when SRAM release hydro etaps and I can afford to replace my drive train that's how I would like to go but in the mean time I was am looking at my options. Road drifters are so damn expensive so I was thinking of using bar end shifters and...

    Stolen Silvio in Baltimore

    I have mine UV marked and engraved by the South Australian police. Even though it is quite possibly the only v2 Vendetta in Adelaide. But it sucks I had my DF stolen that was also marked, never got it back, however it did enable me to upgrade :)

    What's on your feet - talking cycle shoes

    I have Sidi Wire Carbon Vernice that I bought from a local bike shop under duress when my DHB's failed on the way to work. I was planning on buying online to save a penny but needed shoes to get home and had money in my pocket. I have had mixed results buying online my DHB's lasted some time and...

    My Neck Rest is better than Yours.

    Let me know how you get on mate. I might be interested in purchasing one from you or Peter from OZHPV as it doesn't make sense to buy $100 of ACS 10 myself to make a $60 inc shipping headrest.

    Deep Rims

    If only they had the disc brake variant of the 240s and I had the money :) Oh for what it is worth the DT Swiss RR 1455 (non disc brake but that will be my next upgrade) are awesome to ride but terrible at keeping their shape. I have now had 2 that have developed an irreparable dent. They did...
