Trying To Choose a Scott Mountain Bike
Hi everyone,
Could you please help me as to what "Scott Sports" Mountain Bike to get. Following are the criteria I am trying to meet:
PRICE (AUD) (RRP): $2500-$4500
SUSPENSION: Back and front, fully adjustable with the handle-bar adjusters
I will be riding on a mixed terrain, however I think about 60% of the time I will be riding on trails, and the rest on more rough stuff (rocks, jumps, logs, etc.).
If you can give me any advice it would be very much appreciated!!!
Thanks for your time!!!
Giant Trance X3 2009 - Suspension Pivot bearings.
My trance has been a little noisy and further investigation of the causes has narrowed it down to bearings in the main pivot.
Anyone got any ideas on replacing the bearings?
Bearings rolling very rough on one side, so I have tried to repack with grease and see if that is going to help. To be tested!
I would prefer to just replace them...but am not that mechanically minded, otherwise I take it down to the bike shop....
Cheers
Shano.
Alternative rear shock for '07 Trance
Was hoping for some advice from any tecnhical bike boffins out there.
The Fox Float R rear shock on my '07 Trance is beginning to display significant wear after years of considerable abuse. It has been a great piece of equipment, but it is time to do 1 of 3 things: replace, recondition or find an alternative.
I have tried to find exact replacements, but am having no luck online - not sure if the Float R is even made anymore (all seems to be RP2 or RP23).
I have sourced a place over east that can recondition the shock for about $250, but it still leaves me with the same shock.
