Hey Guys I am curious which size rear hub do you think will be used for the disc era of cross? Do you think it will stay at a 130 or will manufacturers move to a 135mm? I think both sizes have their pro's/cons but I am curious to hear what you think. BrandonT

29'ers are coming on strong. Although I dont think they will be ideal for such a hilly course.

Does anyone have or know where to get English subtitles for the show?

There is an XX cassette that is 11-36 but here in Canada it retails for $515. That is a bit out of my price range. I also agree that is it nice to have a conversation on the MTB forum.

As previously mentioned there will still be triple options out there, the Shimano 10speed option's all have triple cranks or in the XTR in a triple or a double. I also agree that a 2x10 setup has enough gears for most rider's. I think there will be a lot more cross over with a 3x10. I...

I am listening to Future of the left. Makes me want to sprint.

There has been a lot of new equipment/bikes/clothing and such released this year. Shimano 10 speed mtb groups, Sram 10 speed X0, X9 and X7! Anyone interested in this stuff? The Specialized team seems to be dominating the racing this weekend, Will Burry Stander be WC this year? His season has...

Has anyone ever tried Bio-Racer? Opinions?

This is precisely why I would prefer not to have to change over a pile of freehub bodies to Campy, I am being tight. I have three pair of cross wheels and they are all Shimano. I bought a new pair of tubulars and was going to build or buy another set of wheels. I suppose Shimano C36's are out...

I finally got a Veloce rear derailleur and now am just waiting on my shifters. I am going to run 1x10 on a X-Fire. This may be a stupid question but can I use a Shimano cassette? I believe that the Di2 bikes would be a lot easier to deal with for the mechanics. The derailleur's auto adjusts...

Thanks for all the great and useful information! My concern is that we have a lot of BB30 bikes coming in the next couple years in mountian, road and cross and if the bearings are as bad as I have heard in recent weeks do I want to continue to spec them. Is there a better solution then fully...

I didn't really believe it so that is why I asked. I hadn't noticed any story on this website so I figured it was a hoax.

Hey I am curious to see how many people are switching over to new frames w/ either BB30 or one of the other new bottom bracket's. Have you had issue with the new bearings? I have heard that the BB30 bearings from some manufactuerers are not up to the job. Anyone have feedback?
