  1. i can't compare as i haven't ridden both...but that statement confuses me a bit ...DHF rolls faster but DHR accelerates faster .....surely the faster rolling tyre should also accelerate faster..
  2. 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
  3. wow just got that DHR 2.4wt ..theres a lot of tread on that beauty...hopefully getting my new wheelset today so weekend is looking good
  4. 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
  5. cool thanks people ...ordered the 2.4
  6. 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 ???
  7. 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
  8. 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
  9. Mark now has his new shop in Dbn North ...Over The Bars ..info@overthebarscycles.co.za 076 895 1576 he will be building my new wheels shortly
  10. well thats way after 1st April so hopefully no joke
  11. hmm 66.5deg head angle ...i like that i reckon a 120mm stupmpy could be awesome
  12. what about the new Silverback Surface ...140mm Trail bike
  13. im also very keen on the New Nukeproof Horizon Hubs ...good bearings & superfast engagement
  14. thats also on my list and i believe they have new Hubs coming with Enduro bearings
  15. still hunting for wheels.... anyone tried Sunringle Duroc 35 ???
  16. shifting is perfect no issues . i already had the longer Bscrew before when i had 11-42 ...YA that price it was on SALE @ Summit bikes ( seems like a once off deal ) i think the 786 is a long cage
  17. yep it's working like a charm ..especially after i put a new cable & housing ...now it's super slick
  18. In Durban ..who/where is best place to get a set of wheels built
  19. i would if i could afford it...
  20. magic im about to pull the trigger on the M502's with 350 hubs to match
  21. how long does it take to come from bike 24 ...do they send via POST OFFICE
  22. ok cool, yes i checked the Lyne wheels but until they use brass nipples is a no go for me
  23. thanks for that info...what hubs did you use with those rims ??
  24. did you go with symetric or asymetric rims no nipple holes ..please explain this im totally confused
