Thanx you have given me a lot to think about. When I upgrade my fork I am definately upgrading my front hub to a thicker axle. As for the rear it seems to be holding up well (probably because I don't do DH) when it blows I will be replacing it with either hadleys or king's (probably hadleys thanx to your recommendations) because I really want quicker engagement for pedals kicks.
Just because I like local companies RaceFace is the the main company I will be going with throughout the bike when possible.
Cheers again
ps Great site. Even with exchange I think they are cheaper than anything up here.
