Hey guys. I know a lot of the road section went, but haven't seen much on the MTB side of things. I took some pics and will post them shortly. Sorry, wont be many though (MTBs are for riding mainly, not for being pretty!) :lol:

can't believe they left that top fuel on display... unless the photo was taken shortly after you "tested" the durability of the tt? just kidding.

really, didn't they notice or care how bad that looks? kinda odd.

anyone know much about the tubular TUFO tires? (about 11th or 12th pic down, Paduono titanium bike?) they look like they might roll fast.
blah, blah, blah

Is it just me or do the spindles on the XTR pedals look shorter than the 959's? Perhaps for a lower effective Q-factor?

Yeah I had the same idea about the spindle length on those XTR pedals.

Those Paduanos really look like the bomb!! I've seen one in the flesh at the Transalp and they are amazingly cool.

I've been testing those new XTR pedals for a month now and thier much better than the old XTR and my CrankBrothers Candy SL.
However, I have gain weight from Candy SL but it feels good overall, specially in/out of the pedals.

cheers

Anymore shots on the Shimano MTB shoes.

Dont think I can afford the oven heated then molded to your foot Shimano shoe, its nice though and weight's lighter than my last years Shimano carbon sole shoe.

I was going to buy the SIDI shoe Dominator or even lighter Bullet 2 but I might wait and see what Shimano has to offer in weight weenie shoe category.

This is from Titerra company
http://www.titerra.com/components.html

I use some of their products. Cost amazingly affordable in Russia, not sure about Europe.

Stem+bar weights a lot (280) but I love it!
