  1. My stock standard Anthem 27.5 1 Old vs. new, mines and my bro's (FreedomRide_MHD) bikes.
  2. I highly doubt this bike will retail for that much, has almost identical spec to the Anthem 1 (100mm vs 120mm but exact same fork) and the similarly specced Trance, which retail for around 30k. If this was a carbon frame, then possibly, but no ways 53k for aluminium.
  3. Nvm, ignore my question, I Googled it, not possible
  4. Makes sense. So if I were to find a buy a 20mm Fox Spacer could I adjust the travel on my 100mm Fox 32 Float to 120mm?
  5. I have the 2014 Anthem 27.5, How much of a difference has the 120mm fork made compared to the standard 100mm. Can you actually feel the difference considering that you've only adjusted the travel on the fork by 20mm?
  6. Ohhh mannnn! I just wanted to ride my bicycle, now I can't even ride this weekend. If I feel 100% by tomorrow evening I'll go on Sunday... for a EASY ride.
  7. Very little wheezing, just lots of snot and phlegm. Think I need to get me one those scarve thingies to put over my mouth and nose for early morning rides to prevent this from happening again.
  8. Ride home was okay yesterday, tried to breath through my nose only. Felt much better than I felt at work after I got home, although I was wheezing really badly throughout the night. Hoping to feel better by Sunday so I can go for a ride.
  9. I've had this before, where I start coughing after the ride to work. But like you said it normally goes away after a while. But not today, just a bit worried cos my ride home usually requires some huffing and puffing up the hills of Melville. Oh and I am suffering from hay fever at the moment, so post nasal drip could also be part of the problem.

  11. I cycled to work this morning, and there was a slight chill in the air. when going downhill I could feel the cold air going into my chest. At some points I tried covering my nose and mouth with one hand to prevent myself breathing the cold air directly. Got to work and my chest feels terrible, was fine before today. Also got a really hectic cough and phlegm. Could I be feeling like this cos of the cold air in the morning? Still have to ride back home and it's all uphill, my breathign and chest not feeling so lekker.
  12. Building Blog: 2014 Rampage http://www.vitalmtb.com/news/news/Building-Blog-2014-Rampage,821
  13. Red Bull really pulls of some awesome events. Rampage is still tops for me, still watch Kelly Mcgarry's run all the time... maybe one day I will be THAT good... nahhh, maybe not.
  14. I've watched LOTS of bicycle video's, never seen anyone do that before.
  15. I want those Mamba Pedals so bad, need to start saving up again and come up with an excuse for my wife on why I need to spend more money on my bike.
  16. How insane is this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOewG8nem4o
  17. Climbing. Drink chocolate Super M for recovery.
  18. Cool, how long ago did you move out? Where in Mayfair West? I'm in Crosby, been living here for 24 years now. Use to stay right on Mercury Street with my parents before I got married. Staying down the road from Mercury now. Which Primary/High school did you go to?
  19. I'm looking to 'catch the bus' from Mayfair/Auckland Park/Melville to Rosebank
  20. This is really awesome, hope we can start one in JHB soon. How can we go about starting one?
