Yup....
Or look at something like http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pair-of-used- ... 3f1ea4e94c as pedals don't stay shiney for long!Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -
Seem to have gone up since last week, I'm sure they were around £20 as I was going to buy some for a spare bike.But I decided to buy food instead.Benz carrera wrote:

Yes they are standard so ur probably right. What do you mean by toe clip?0
-
I might be wrong - that's what I read in your list of specs.
Do they look like this
or this with moulded pins
or this with removable pins
Either of the first two get some like the last ones.I don't do smileys.

There the second ones with the moulded clips I lost the bid on eBay went for £15.50 but seen some in CRC for £19.99 now but I'm having second thoughts might go for the lighter tyres and tubes now lol ment to be saving for my holiday but oh we'll lol0
-
The moulded pins are pretty rubbish. Get removeable pins -
Not the best but an improvement over what you have. Unless you have really big feet.

Cheers cooldad are they a bigger surface or the same size as mine?as for lighter tyres I here the Panaracer Fire XC Pro are a good choice?0
-
Whats your tyre budget?
Panaracer XC Pro will be lighter than what you have now (2.1's are about 720g), but not massively so, for that you need to go to folders.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -
Well really I want the best for a cheaper budget are folder ones lighter?0
-
At the minute I'm struggling with fitness so I gather getting lighter tyres and tubes will help me while my fitness builds up0
-
haha my vulcan dont want me to get another bike, every time i start saving some dosh the vulcan breaks its self, had to fit new derailer today and cable plus hanger as jammed last night was skipping alot then bracket snapped. Got a sram x7 fitted
And almost forgot to add as the gears were slipping tried to get a bit of air off a roller slipped lost the pedals came back hard on the saddle and bent seat post and saddle clamps. There is going to be nothing bar the original frame left0 -
Haha so it's all good apart from that lol how heavy are my tyres in at the minute cus I heard there heavy and want lighter tyres and tubes0
-
Tell us a budget and we'll suggest something otherwise we'll have to suggests something for every budget from £25 to £100!
On-one are doing Schwalbe folders for £20 each right now (free P&P).Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -

The 2 pairs of CST's I've had, were over 1Kg a tyre, a wired XC Pro is 720g, the folder lighter still, some of the Schwalbe are circa 500g/tyre.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0
