  1. Get the Scott branded Elite bottle cages. Have the same problem with other cages and only these work for me.
  2. Thanks guys, Will give the hairspray a go this evening and see how that works.
  3. Thanks for the feedback guys. Will try the hairspray and see how that works.
  4. A question to all the experts out there. I recently fitted new grips on my mtb. Problem is they keep on twisting. I can see myself coming off very soon as I have once or twice lost grip while they twisted. I have Bontrager Race X Lite EVA foam grips on a glossy carbon bar. How do I get them not to twis/slip.
  5. Yeh, makes me sad to see the place (town) go backwards like that. I grew up there and must say it was actually a very nice town to live in and grow up as a kid. Still visit there often as my parents and sister still live there.
  6. Avoid this place as far as you can.Really gone backwards, and facilities are not maintained.Rather check out the camping spots on the Fochville road.Also some nice places along the crater.Check out the Parys info website as well.
  7. So, I would assume you refer to my post on the question about which brakes. Yes, I do bleed my XT brakes. Once a year I replace the fluid. Just because I like to do so and that is how I maintain my equipment. Also had them built over on to a frame with internal routing, which meant I had to cut the brake hose and bleed them.
  8. I'm a big(read 100kg) boy and these are just great.I am running mine with 160mm rotors and no problem stopping when i need to.Best of all, you can bleed them at home.Bleed kit cost R15, two 20ml syringes and fish tank tubing and you are all set to go.Easy to do once you get the hang and takes 10min.
  9. Second this. SLX or XT I have ridden both, SLX M666 and XT M785
  10. Paid R799 for the stand. Bought from Mica Hardware, Tork Craft brand. Really works well for home DIY work.
  11. Got myself a new workstand. And a new saddle. Bontrager Inform RL 155mm wide.
  12. Tried sending you a pm and mine gave some weird error when sending. See my other reply for my mail address.
  13. Hi Jacques No problem. Sorry I missed your previous post. For some silly reason all my notifications were turned off. You are welcome to mail me at leonardmyburgh@mymtnmail.co.za and let's see how we can help you.
  14. Just sent you a PM regarding the Concept wheels.
  15. Yeh, now I can tie the kids to the roof and keep my bike on the back seat. (Only kidding )
  16. Not new but wanting this for a while now. Got this for a bargain and could not resist myself.
  17. I ran Sram Force brakes at one stage with 6700 shifters and had no issue at all with braking. Can't see why your set up won't work.
  18. If you need a natural product and supplement you might want to consider our HERBALIFE NRG Instant Guarana beverage. You are welcome to check out the website for more info and contact me should you be interested. www.herbalifedistribution.com/performance.php
  19. If you are running a XT crank and need to fit to a standard BB30 (Not press Fit BB30) frame you need one of these. http://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/first-bb-30-reducer-r-30 I used this for my current build to fit a Shimano XT crank on a frame with BB30.
  20. Ok, let me share with you guys. I had the same problem with cravings for sweet snacks after a meal and sometimes just during the day for no apparent reason. I then started substituting my breakfast cereal for a Herbalife Formula 1 healthy breakfast shake in order to get good nutrition. This provided me with a balanced breakfast. After that my cravings just disappeared. I also started adding the personalized protein powder from Herbalife and enjoy staying fuller for longer with no cravings at all!!! An additional bonus I just dropped another 37cm across my body the last 12 weeks. ANY Craving is the body’s way of telling you that you have an im-balance of nutrients of which the biggest one triggering cravings is PROTEIN. Have a look at websites below and I will also be more than willing to help. http://www.herbalifedistribution.com/ http://performancenutrition.herbalife.com/en/ Most important is to start your day with a balanced healthy nutritious breakfast.
  21. Hey Jacques There is a good reason for this. I may be able to help you with thi. Please drop me pm and I will discuss further with you. Main reason most of us have cravings is as a result of a lack in protein intake. If you are serious about this please pm me and I will gladly assist you with this. Cheers Leonard

  23. Yip, Clint and the guys at Finishline are great. Always happy to help out and service is also good from them. Well stocked shop.
  24. Actually received it on Teusday already. Best helmet for my head to be honest. This will be my 3rd one. Fits me like no other helmet does. Had Bell and some others before and still the best for me.
  25. 100% Correct yes. Thanks for the tip by the way.
