  1. Thanks. Can't wait to get her on the dirt. She's just missing a dropper, then she'll be perfect.
  2. All finished now, ready for her maiden voyage on Saturday
  3. Are you using the Snakeskin versions? They have stronger sidewalls. Never had an issue with my RaRa's losing air and they seat easy tubeless. Only thing is, they wear very quickly.
  4. That's what third gear is for.....
  5. 32x18 on my rigid 29er. Great for Thaba, but too spinny for Modderfontein or Northern Farms
  6. Done a little more tonight. Tyres are temporary, waiting on 2.4 mountain kings, steerer needs trimming, cable needs tidying up, grips fitted and bolts torqued.
  7. Short answer...... It depends..... Long answer......The more you ride SS, the stronger you'll get, the harder gear you'll push......
  8. Sure. Just give me a shout.
  9. How about an isis crank?
  10. Don't worry, it'll be my secret training bike.
  11. It's looking good.

  14. That's no workshop, just storage space that happens to be the quietest place to work on my bike.
  15. Phoned some friends...,http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/02/08/bygysa2u.jpg
  16. Spent some time online which resulted in these boxes turning up yesterday.http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/02/08/najuzy4u.jpg
  17. So, after being outed in the dreamy AM hardtail thread (thanks to the_nerd), I thought I should post some pics of my latest build. I started off with a headset left over from my previous build (Note to self: only buy headset when frame is in your grubby hands).
  18. Sssshhhhh.....
  19. Digging the milk stout
  20. I find them fascinating. Been in the hobby about 18 months or so, started off wanting the really big ones. There are some rarities coming into the hobby now, like sk27's little beauty, thanks to some really dedicated breeders.
  21. My Brazilian red & white should get to about 22cm....
