I do still have a BMX somewhere (I bought one 20 odd years ago as I thought it would be cheaper than bending Mavics all the time). Loads of fun, but to the OPs question - anything over a short distance will good leg training :D

Actually - think I have this sorted now. Thanks for the offers / help all :)

Just hubs, I'm afraid :)

Sounds interesting, thank you. Do you happen to have any pics at all? :) Just trying yo get my head around all this post 98 stuff. Literally bought my first ever pair of discs earlier :D

Bought some Avid juicys, with rotors - condition as described, posted quickly, great comms. All in, happy experience- thank you :)

In the middle of a very custom build for my son (his first 26" wheel!) and I'm after some black 32H hubs, for 6 bolt discs. I don't want to spend a bomb but at the sane point I want good quality (so Shimano, etc) Anyone have anything? :) Thanks! Paul

Have you still got the Avid Juicy set? And is that 30 posted? :)

That can work yep :) Paypal OK?

Do you still have these? Would be happy to take them posted, if so :)

Re: Re: Cheers :) Very happy with the end result[s]

I honestly couldn't say, I'm not an expert on internals. When I was looking for my Dukes I did lots of Google searches on fork upper sizes. Might be worth doing that for Tora and XC30 see if they're the same size. Failing that measure up your Tora springs (if you have some) and I can measure up...
