OMH this DHR II 2.4WT is the flippin bomb...it just hooks in the corners and there no more of that clenching ( read puckering ) now when i throw the bike into a corner. admittedly its a little slower rolling but i will put up with that all day for added confidence in the twisty stuff
personally i won't buy anything that i can't go and see..feel ..so local only. that does limit choices but sadly there are just too many dodgy things going on
actually im talking about either the 2.3 or 2.4 tyre and have a pike so sure it will fit. on evobikes they have a 2.3 ( but states REAR tyre ) and a 2.4 which is slightly heavier ...can i use either ???
anyone have any comment on these as a front tyre MAXXIS MINION DHR II basically im upgrading my wheels to 30mm internal and want some thing a bit more grippy than my ardent race ...which i will stick on rear oh and dont want one that weighs a ton
i only have one problem with ebikes....if he passes me on the way up the hill and then holds me up on the way down the single track trail ...then im pissed
personally i use Smoove...but i feel it's more about when you apply it. I always prep my bike the night before...never put lube on in the morning at the race/ride as then it picks up dirt
NOPE you missed it, they take the route markers down after the ride. Basically it seems they piece together all the best parts of trails ...damm it was good
Holla does have 330+ KM of trail admittedly there is a fair amount of cane road and Jeep track. It could definately do with some more trail features and more tech riding stuff... anyway looking forward to trailblazer on Sunday @ Karkloof OH and News just in Jasper Van Veesem has just landed the general manager position ...so trails they could be a changing
you cant just go ride anywhere in the bush now as you will most likely get robbed, thus the small amount you pay for riding in a bike park in my opinion is well worth it.
actually i dont think Holla rates are crazy ...if you buy a year membership then its R 169.00 a month. so even if you only ride weekends both days then you paying R 21.12 a day. if you ride more then obviously you score even better.
Agree with people above this was a fantastic event. enough climbing to keep you honest and the Single track was just insane, it flowed and had enough techy rock garden parts to keep you on your toes. A nice bonus was a decent goodie bag. well done to the organizers.
must say i was riding with a friend on Sunday who has the exact bike tested here and it is very nice in the flesh...Ticks all the boxes for a do it all machine. i think if you ditched the wheels for for some Wide lightning's or the like then it would be smoking
