LOL This story is so funny

Yeah, I wont take my bike any where else, they are independent bike mechanics. Great guys and will help with any quries, ask for Mark. Those rims will be fine for the conversion, are they the Mavic XM 317 disc rims? If so, they will be doing a wheel build & tubeless conversion for me with the same rims

Take it to the guys at Good2Go if need be - They can do it for you. Did you check what rims you have got?

Hijack on Sorry for this, but is there a CRC for car parts in SA, or is it a matter of just phoning around? Thanks Hijack off

If i could afford a third bike, it would be a road bike. Had one as a youngster though, when I get to Oz (eventually) I will get one

Which are you preferring?

Im the same. Its amazing how huge its become, in a relatively short space of time, although the social networking, can also be construed as "unsocial networking"

No more MTBing?

Get these if you can afford them https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/97263-ztr-olympic-ac-hubs-race-wheelset/

Damn your girlfriend is hot

Almost fell off my chair, my sides are hurting from laughing so hard

Bwah ha ha, you better make it very short then. Thank goodness the wife has her own computer.

I was "hubbing", brilliant So Im not alone on this one

She does MTB, she even comes to spinning classes with me. She is getting new tubeless wheels soon. I even colour coded her hubs for her.

No story, lol.

A while back I started a thread entitled Wives vs Cycling, continueing from that, Ive just recieved a death stare & the usual chirp, are you on "The Hub" again? Does anyone else get hassled for there time spent trawling the many wonderful pages of information.

I dont even let the wife touch my bike, let alone anyone else.

Nice anaolgy

I wonder what that stickers all about then, surely the forks were meant for a MTB, which requires it to go offroad. I can also understand the concern it might just give up the ghost one day when you least expect it.

I 2nd that, be very carful.

And the rims? Its possible to get some nice 2nd hand wheels off the hub, Someone was selling some new Stans rims for R1100. Budget will dictate unfortunatly. Tyres - hard to say. Ive not ridden with Michelins so cant comment, but the Conti are great, bit pricy( expect to pay up to R450/ tyre) Dont be conned into having to go full UST as these will be more expensive. Where do you do most of your riding?

Where else besides offroad are you supposed to use them? Im pretty sure he wont be doing massive jumps on them.

You should be able convert them, what are they? Tyres are down too personal preferance, What tyres do you currently have? Also do you have a budget

Bwah ha ha
