    Just looking on Chain Gang website and they have a list for my bike & model. Still only have 15 front and 48 rear as the best option for offroad. Will have to see if the NX 14 tooth will fit, if not it’s not that big of a deal, it still goes well off road. I think I am just trying to ride it like an enduro or motocrosser.

    We tried the 87 model and the later ones and they 87 is like you said with the bigger notches and the later one was very close. As for the chain, yeah that’s another concern, I am not sure what size is on it. Do you know any measurements that I can check to see what size it is?

    I was just checking on google earth for times and distances from home to portland and portland to canberra. It’s a bit over 4 hours to Portland and another 4.5 to canberra, but only 5.5 to canberra from home so I’m not sure if I will take the “detour”out that way now as it is adding nearly 4 hours to the trip.

    G’day mate, welcome to OBT. Good people here and some great rides as well. Where are you from and where do you normally ride?

    When they measure your height stand on your toes, that will help.

    But really Menace good luck with it.

    Eat smaller meals more often, the more often you eat the less fat the body will store (as long as they are not fatty meals). When you don’t eat regularly the body stores more fat because it doesn’t know when the next lot is coming so eat smaller meals 5 or 6 times a day instead of 2 or 3 big ones.

    Make lunch your main meal of the day, that way you have all afternoon whenyour more active to burn it off rather than going to bed with a full stomach.

    Drink plenty of water, it will help flush out some of the fats as well as suppressing your hunger.

    Do your sit ups and push ups first thing in the morning and again in the afternoon, start with say 10 of each and increase by 2 every day. Hold the top pushup position for 1 minute to strengthen your core muscles which will help with the situps and the pushups.

    Mate I am chock full of useful tips which one day I hope to use myself :D
