How do you achieve such crisp photos? I bought an SLR camera recently to get some decent pictures. And im just wondering what adjustments you're running.

I've been out on a couple of rides and im in two minds. Could lose a bit of small bump absorption if I go for the firm. We'll see.

Just noticed someone sat underneath the drop. Who was it? haha

To be fair though, on ashima's part they held up well for a pritty cheap and light rotor. But I just thought in the end i would get a decent rotor set that could out live the ashimas as it would work out cheaper.

I have recently replaced them with Hope floating rotors as they became warped over a years use.

My new adjustable seatpost has just arrived. And im looking into a custom wheelbuild. Im thinking Hope pro 2 on Stans ZTR flow. Unsure about the spokes. But STOKED.
