710 is only on the 2010 models. 2011 and 2012 have lower rise, wider bars. 760-780 I think

I would like to lower my seat but the tube is a bit too long. Is it ok if I just cut a small part off with a steel saw?

Cut away. I have quite short legs so I neatly always have to cut seat tubes. If your doing it free hand, with a hack saw, run a pipe cutter round it first. The cutter will most likely not be able to cut it (coppers a lot softer and plumbing pipe is usually thinner than seat tubes) vut it will give you a nice clean groove to guide the saw and keep it straight.

I actually got the bike right after the fork was rebuilt but that was the problem. I think that the black uppers were cheeper.

Well so much for Hans Dampf being the easiest Tubeless tyre to fit, gave up and went to the LBS and now there on I've lost 2.42lbs in rotational weight, the naorrower tyre have made it easier to pedal everywhere and the grip is great.

My VAoltage is now on a diet, I wonder what the difference between Vented and Floating Hope Rotors is. This may get very expensive and I planned to stop spending money this month as both bikes were complete.

Formula floating rotors are the lightest rotors I know of, around 130grams for an 8inch rotor. Oh and get XT cranks (not the hollowtech Razz ) thats what I did.

Slx cranks feel good on a voltage, good Strenth to weight ratio.

+1 on the SLX cranks, they are better than saint in my opinion.

Anyhow, here's some voltage riding from the Gold Coast, Australia.

I cant see myself breaking my SLXs, and they are lighter than Saint. Just my opinion.

Lighter, look better after foot ware. I also thing for the majority of people's voltage riding (80%) dot require the extra Strength of saints. They are also cheaper.
