Trade up to X-Fusion
If you are thinking about updating your bike, a fork is perhaps the single best upgrade you can make and we think the X-Fusion Velvet is the best value for money fork upgrade.
To help make this upgrade decision a bit easier we are introducing X-Fusion trade up deals.
We will give you $100 trade in on any working mtb suspension fork.
Don't despair if your fork isn't working so great (let's just say it's broken) give us or your bike shop a call, as we may be happy to give you a recycling incentive.
We will have complete information here shortly but please feel free to contact us for more info.
We will also be offering trade up deals for rear shocks.
Caroline Buchanan
At the World Championships Caroline Buchanan placed 5th in the Elite Womens 4X. After qualifying 8th and a clash in the semi final Caroline missed the big final but raced to a plan to win the small final. She also placed 5th in the Junior Womens downhill.
Caroline rides for the KHS Bicycles team and races 4X on Velvet R forks.
For all the details see Carolines site and for full results see the Val di Sol website
WWS Round 3
Appin. Crikey that is one tough track to punt around too many times, but did we enjoy it. Hell yes.
Matt P put in his biggest effort to date for the DIY Duo and Matt M, not to be outdone did the same number of laps, so they had one of their best events.
Everyone survived and found the track enjoyably challenging if somewhat hard on a bike and body.
Velvet R Reviews
The X-Fusion Velvet R fork is reveiwed in the current Australian Mountain Bike (page 88) and Mountain Biking Australia (page 21), so if you would like to get another opinion (or two) have a read of those mags.
We'd love to hear your thoughts or questions so please drop us a line or give a us call, or talk to your local bike shop.
Dealer List updated
Finally got some time to update things on the website and that includes the dealer list.
Please let us know if you have any problems contacting any of the dealers on our lists, or the details are out of date.
Remember to check with your dealer about all the gear you see on our site, as they are more than happy to help you get the right gear to get the most from your ride.
Working Weeks Series Round 2
Round 2 of the Working Weeks Series hosted by SCUM was held last weekend at the Coondoo Road track near Nowra.
The Working Week Series is 6 x 8 hour mountain bike events which can be entered by teams of up to 4 riders and solo riders.
The promoters, Bright Orange Events, entered 459 riders in teams and solo categories. This is one of the largest fields for these events which have been held for the last five years.
The South Coast United Mountainbikers (SCUM) prepared track was fast and challenging for riders of all levels and everyone we talked to had a great weekend. This is the first time the Nowra based club has hosted an event of this size and, from responses definitely shouldn't be the last.
Nigerians demand large quantities... scam email
We have had a lot of enquiries for one particular bearing set and it appears they all originate form a purchaser in Nigeria.
I am not sure of the cycling stats for this country but I don't suspect they need this many sets paid for by credit card.
If you see and email with the subject line Quote Price ............ Enduro Bearing, requesting prices for
Enduro Wheelset/Hub Bearing Upgrade Sets { Micro 68 Front hub (Push in end caps) 2
please feel free to ignore it.
The email addresses are gained from our dealer list which we make available for legitimate customer contact and to promote the businesses that support us. We will be checking what we can do to reduce the chances this occuring further.

Update - Results - World 24 Hour MTB Solo Champs
If Jeff Toohey had been entered in the Elite category he would have placed third. Must be that Queensland weather prepared him for the heat. Jeff can be proud of an outstanding perfomance. The prize money would have been nice...
