  1. Where the **** is messenger??
  2. Sorry could not go thru everything to tell Patch to loose that font
  3. Frig I hate these roadies .... their old bikes r so cool! Envious
  4. An ex Spruit rider (relocated to Durbs 1 math ago). Always had the same issue. Like easier LSD type riding
  5. 2014 Giant Anthem Advanced 29 (have some Hope components) R85k ='R213 p/m (previously insured) Giant Trance Adv 27.5 R60k = R289 p/m (new addition) Santa Cruz Tallboy 2014 2C XTR components R125k = R377 p/m (new addition)
  6. Omelette, who are u with?I had a recent discussion with my insurer: bikes that had been insured for longer enjoyed better rates. In other words a newer biker (year) for a lesser value had a higher monthly premium. Go figure. Argued. Came down a tad. (cycle sure)
  7. BTW, I've always enjoyed refurbing older bikes (yours is not old/abused) nut the durability of the final product has not been up to scratch (unless you talk to the master in the Cape I am told). All the best
  8. Not sure on your renting options mattewproctor. Final restraint condition - take as much time as possible. Perhaps consider wrapping it once finished as it appears that although the final finish looks magic, it is not as durable as the original OEM finish
  9. No, only allow solo vs solo. Yes, the issue is to police that. But it could be the same now by disallowing ANY support/assistance from a fellow rider. Goes against the ethos of sport I know but like in Xc you want to see the best rider emerge. Not the best well backed-up team
  10. Hi, keen on this. I need 15mm TA up front, 142/12 on the rear with 11sp hub.
  11. I use q20. No slipping thereafter
  12. As expected the frigging morons can't provide a 2 by or 1 by total cost. Yes I can add
  13. Tend to disagree. 1st prize is comfort/fit and for some/many women that may involve a women specific bike.After-sale: the normal £1m question - sure u would like to be more mainstream but we're you happy until then? There is a SC carbon S frame for sale @R30k which I think is a bargain but ad a 29er it is a step to far (for my wife). Comfort for the rider has to be foremost. Sale secondary imo
  14. Too true. No one wants to accept the truth. Everyone too aggressive with no reason. Answers are just platitudes, not solutions
  15. Mikes Bikes in Greenside. Personalized attention. Let u know what is wrong. 6 yrs of service excellence now. If a problem, they take it back & sort it out/or get it sorted with the manufacturer
  16. Token look hellish narrow
  17. Don't know u from a bar of soap but can taste your disappointment. Sorry u can not race S2C with your vrou. Also did a dof thing this week and landed on my pip - a few staples later but all good.
