  1. Fox RP's wotrks very well . That is what my Shova had on when I got it from Patrick and it's still working 100% .
  2. Steel !! And my cheap Shimano MT55 rims still like new after almost 3 years .
  3. Busy reading the trail notes and this is the comment in there about the Gamkaskloof/Boshluiskloof route , don't know if it has been posted already : Note that despite the owners' attempts to close it off, this is a public right of way. Climb the fence and if you are stopped tell the person: - you were a guest of the Jouberts - it is an historical route - they should contact their lawyers (with whom the Freedom Challenge attorneys have already dealt)
  4. Oooh yes I forgot about that . The diving thing . Went diving with mine last year in Moz and was very impressed with the footage .
  5. Sorry , but I also hardly ever use the go-pro on my bike rides , mostly on the Motor-bike and on the 4x4 stuff . I tested the "cheap"one that Game was selling a while back and was impressed with the quality , so I suppose it all depends on how serious you are about your clips .
  6. On the N3 nogal !!
  7. I had a few of these cheapies because I also thought the go-pro was just to pricey . But after I got tired of the 1 hour recording time I got the Go-Pro . No I know what a proper action camera should really be like . No more blind spots if you move from the shade into the sun , no blurry pictures when going fast when there are tree or other stuff next to the course and my battery will record for almost 3 hours .
  8. I suppose there is not right or wrong . I like them short , very short . Sometimes to short and then I cannot fit all my gadgets on the bar . Never measured them but first thing on new bike the pipe cutter comes out .
  9. They haven't updated for a while now .
  10. Those fatigue meters can be a real pain . You actually get people that was born looking tired !!
  11. I think the gap got a little smaller . Looked like Buks and Kie spend a bit more time at the previous stop over .
  12. Ok then they should be fine cause it looks a lot further .
  13. Allowed ?
  14. Have the 2nd group taken the wrong road ? Looks like they heading in the wrong direction !!
  15. Route was perfect , maybe a bit more technical climbs and hairy downhills on the long route . Compulsory 30 minute stop with beers at the Oasis .
  16. If I know I need to buy a lot of stuff , R10K or more then I first go and visit the international online shops to compare prices . Sometimes after all other costs has been added I end up buying locally from CWC or Buycycle . BUT I still like to go to my LBS and spend some money there .
  17. They got their own law . When you see a taxi be prepared for the unexpected . Nothing the pigs can do about them .
  18. I rather loose a few fingers because of the cold than sit in a cage on the highway texting my friends .
  19. And there I was thinking a rigid is a rigid . Fitted my bike with the On-One fork I got with the build kit . Done the Old Monster race and a few others and up and down Klapperkop once a week . IT hasn't broken or cracked and I assumed that it's a good fork . But it seems there are more to these things ? So lets assume I want to replace mine with a "better "fork what should I look for ?
  20. Ok this is getting boring . See you Saturday at the Crusaders Bike club ?
  21. I sure as hell hope you did not pay for that training ! If you did please go and get your money back .
  22. Shebeen did you give your brain cell to somebody else for the day or are you just trying to say something . A good friend of mine was shot dead by these bastards and then while his wife watched they filled the bath tub with hot water (WDF boils a kettle to fill a tub ) and drowned her 11 year old son in it . So please why don't you step out of your little bubble .
  23. ok sorry . Thieves should not have any rights and if possible should be shot between the eyes . Bullet are not cheap these days and I hate to see them wasted .
  24. ok this must surely be one of the funniest posts in a long time !!! People that want to feed their families do not steal funny enough , people that want to buy drugs and people that are to lazy to work steals !!
