In May 2013 I was super fortunate to be involved in the release of the Ibis Mojo HDR. The Mojo HDR Introduction video was shot over a couple of weeks in Melrose South Australia. Both the guys at Ibis and I were concerned about someone noticing the HDR and posting photos of the bike online before it was officially released. The solution was to place black tape over the ‘R”s on the top tube and rear triangle. Not super stealth by any means but thankfully it did the job 🙂 (more…)

Thanks to BikeBox (the Australian distributor for Schwalbe) I’m running a brand spanking new Racing Ralph 27.5 x 2.25 as a rear tyre on my Mojo HDR. What’s so interesting about that I hear you ask? The Racing Ralph is old news right? Well… yes and no. (more…)

Out scoping trails in the bush this afternoon I came across three old school dirt farmers trucking along without a care in the world. Echidnas are usually insanely cautious around people and burrow at the slightest disturbance – it was an awesome treat to spend an hour or so roaming the hill with them! (more…)

Schwable Hans Dampf 2.35 650b

Schwalbe Hans Dampf 650b 27.5×2.35 Review

Opting to run my Mojo HDR as a 650b meant I had to find new tyres fast as my favorite combo to date wasn’t yet available in 27.5″.
