    For Sale Troy Lee Edge Helmet

    Having a bit of a garage clear out and I think having Seven Troy Lee Edge helmets is just a little excessive. When I bought this in a job lot of helmets this was one of two in a box and I believe it to be unused. The pads look new but there are "dints" in the foam under the peak and on the back...

    1982 Motobécane Vélover… The first french mtb ?

    Spinergy carbon wheels

    The Spinergies that have survived are the good pairs. I think there QC wasn't the best and "Bad Batches" occured

    Wot happened to fat bikes

    They probably weigh less than you think..( well a decent one..not one made of pig iron) They do take some effort to get to speed but they keep their speed if you ride them aggressively enough, I throw mine around like an Enduro bike at Dalby. I hope you are not classing me as a Beardy Hipster...

    Wot happened to fat bikes

    I understand where you are coming from but Fatbikes were created out of need ( not by the corporates) and it's just that the industry jumped on the bandwagon for a little while. Now that ship has sailed it's back to it's proper niche again with people riding them out of love and not fashion...
