  1. To be honest this is exactly the reason I got the OneTwenty...However, people have done Trans Baviaans on the Pascoe. I think the OneTwenty may just climb ever so slightly better due to the different head angle.
  2. Well I don't have one of these, but the OneTwenty....And man is it ever capable! Coming from the Spaz Enduro I was a little worried about its capabilities for going down...but those were unwarranted!
  3. I'd rather have the 130mm to be honest, there's really only a benefit to having the additional travel. If you're not using all of it then you should try fiddling with the air pressure to ensure you do at least occasionally use all the travel.
  4. Yep its a Pascoe with MRP Stage up front
  5. Or better yet...The Manotou Mattoc Pro If too pricey here its under 9k before duties at CRC!
  6. Y would you need to justify it to your wife? Do you not earn separate salaries? :|
  7. Hope to see you out at Bloemendal/Majik etc sometime man
  8. Ah balls ;(
  9. Why not just the OneTwenty...Half the price as as capable a frameset Not that I'm biased cos I have one at all
  10. I see the bum of a Pascoe
  11. Morning ride from home hoping to do Majik, Bloemendal, Contermans and Hoogekraal n ride back..But got to the link into Contermans to find a sign saying the trails are closed today So much for my long ride
  12. well just a polymorph of carbon
  13. Graphite frames? :|
  14. Yep...Wild Card is useless, you'll need an Activity Permit ;(
  15. Nice setup man, 1x10 rocks...Where's you find out about the Enduro? ;( I also wanna!
  16. The "stretched" look is because of chain length. I struggled a LOT with this when I first went 1x10...At first (I feel) have your chain a little long as you can always remove a link. Remember the suspension also changes the effective length of the chain. Easiest was to deflate shock completely, take chain around largest in the back and then front ring and add 3 or 4 links...You can remove one later if not perfect. Anyway thats what I found after a few broken chains ;( Since I thought about it more and did the above, no issues so far
  17. The ZEE needs the RADr cage. You need to buy it from Bibi and Install it yourself. It usually just allows slightly more clearance between the cage and the 42 on the cassette when adjusting the B-screw.
  18. Yeah this one had only a few rocks at the top of stage one... ;(
  19. The powder was insane :|
  20. It was I rode K@K and came off twice in stage 2 But was psyched the whole way nonetheless
  21. The only prob Iis I was in Europe last December (Germany and Spain) for a climbing trip, AND just got me a new Pyga, so will be hard to justify going to Europe AGAIN next year ... although There are always ways
  22. Sorry if I missed this but ROUGHLY what is the pricing for the trip? Don't think I'd make next year, but perhaps I could scrounge together for the following...sounds freaking amazing!
  23. Hahaha, not underwear, just ordinary pants It was late OK, not bothered to clean the house before photos
