  5. Wolwespruit for more of a "bike park" experience with berms, jumps and singletrack. Buffelsdrift for longer distances with some good tech challenges Thaba Trails for rocky tech and climbing
  6. Please let us know what you find!
  7. Great to hear that good service exists. What was the lead time on getting a new Santa Cruz? I’ve been asking around a few local distributors for new bikes and getting bugger all response
  8. Dissector up front and Rekon out back
  9. Yup. Will end up at EMS at JHB and be transferred to SAPO
  10. Thanks Marc. I'll work through my LBS to get hold of one
  11. Hi Marc Are you going to be bringing in any of the 36t ratchet kits? Keen to try the halfway between the 54 and 18 to see how it affects my bike's rear suspension
  12. Sounds like a proper bleed should be enough to sort this out. Have a look at the Shimano dealer manual for the full and proper process and make sure the dealer does it exactly the same way. Otherwise buy some Shimano oil and DIY. It is well worth being able to do it at home
  13. The single track from the last water point on the Big Mountain Day 2 route was an absolute highlight for me. The gravel grind to get there, not so much. Still I had a great weekend and enjoyed the riding immensely
  14. Me as well. Very much looking forward to this
  15. Congrats. Which dealer did you go through?
  16. Used him before. Zero issues
  17. Thanks! Rims are 21mm wide. My 38c Panaracers air up at 39mm wide
  18. Got the Revolt some Ican carbon wheels from Kean Bikes
  19. Be sure to go to the Oude Stasie for a dop and the Wakkerstroom Hotel for a meal if you end up going there
  20. Spoke with Dorothy from the Circus. She opens the gates there on the weekends at around 6:00 (or earlier) on request
  21. Hi all, just want to check, is the Reserve open from 6:00 and the Circus as well? Thinking of trying my hand there sometime soon
  22. I swear I've never ever experienced a tailwind. Only headwinds!
  23. Get a bigger fan! Started with that exact same one, moved on to a 46cm floor fan. Much better!
  24. I've got stage 1-3 to make do as I missed them with illness. Stage 3 making me naar
  25. Hope that Ripley AF becomes available locally
