    My hubs are fine, it's my rims that need replacing :p I think they are made from butter.

    Unanswered When do you replace your tyre?

    Usually when one of my tight arse friends do; since they take my seconds and I'll get a new one. But yeah, that tyre is shagged!

    New wheels - Hunt Enduro Wide

    I just found these as well. I've done the same thing to my wheels as you have and they need replacing. I like that the Hunt rear wheel is 36 spokes and the front is 32. I really need a stronger rear wheel.

    Added some Red Azonic pedals and Azonic grips. Amazing machine so far. Loving the handling this bike offers.

    Stronger Wheels?

    @drjavis2003 The Vittoria Air Liner looks pretty good. I'll get a couple.

    Stronger Wheels?

    So my bike is less than a week old and I've already dented the rear wheel (in 2 places) and bent a spoke. :mad: My rims are Sunringle Duroc 40's. I think they made them from butter :unsure: Any suggestions for a stronger rear wheel? Now I can see the value in a pair of Spengle's 3 spoke...

    The website says they are around 1750g. They are a very polarizing look. It just takes my old brain while to adjust to not seeing spokes :D

    Ordered my Thok Mig-R!

    Got it! Off riding first thing tomorrow. It is a Mig-R, though it has a standard Mig frame cos I like the black more than the Mig-R silver. So I got them to swap all the parts. Now to customise it. Soon I'll replace the shock with a Cane Creek Inline Coil 210x60 for around 150mm travel and...

    hi from brisbane australia , soon to own a merida 160/900 e bike , any thoughts on the merida brand ??

    I've ridden SugarBag a few times on my Santa Cruz 5010 (just sold). But not since the new trails have been put in. So would love to ride up there as soon as I get a new e-bike. Are you a member of BushRangers or CORCA?

    hi from brisbane australia , soon to own a merida 160/900 e bike , any thoughts on the merida brand ??

    Hi, I'm in Brisbane as well in Wamuran. I took a Thor Mig-R for a test ride yesterday and loved it. Will be taking a Merida 160 900E for a test ride in the next few days hopefully. The Merida is certainly the best value bike in Oz atm with quite simply the best components bar none. But..... I...

    I just took a Mig-R for a test ride today. So impressed with how it rides. Like @Krisj said; you hop on it and it just feels right and comfortable. Definitely top of my list for my new emtb so far. I love the look of it. I love how it handles. Mostly I love how I don't have worry about climbing...

    Need help..which bike? to get!

    The Yari fork is ok. It's the Lyrik without the Charger 2 damper. You can get a lyrik damper for $415AU and fit it yourself.

    Need help..which bike? to get!

    I'm in Brisbane, Australia and the distributor in just down the road from me. (about 30kms) so hoping to test one this week. I noticed the NZ site hasn't got any prices yet as well. But at $7,200 for the Mig-R makes it about $7,600NZ plus shipping.

    Need help..which bike? to get!

    @lookieuk Have you considered a Thok? Thok E-Bikes AU Only 140r/150f but I think they can be made to work with 150r/160f. Also the rear suspension is progressive so it will feel like you have more than 140mm travel. I'm going to test ride one this week hopefully.
