Hey Cois. Glad to hear things are still going well, all things considered. I'm afraid this pandemic is going to reveal a lot about the people around us and their compassion towards others or lack there of. With regards to visits to the Doc and high risk environments, maybe a good fitting N95 mask might help there? I know they aren't great for continual use and are more difficult to breath in compared to the surgical masks. Maybe one of the doctors on here can comment about what would be best for visits to the doctor where you may be in contact with other ill people in waiting rooms etc? Our rodeo here in Australia is just starting, we managed to dodge the first wave of infections, but now have community transmission in Victoria and New South Wales. I personally think we'll soon be joining the rest of the world with regards to covid cases. However on a positive note while reading some of the articles on the various news websites today, there seems to be some positive results on the vaccines developed here and in China. Fingers crossed this is actually the case. On a lighter note here is a link to a monkey riding a bicycle, or if you ask my wife, me trying to be a mountain biker https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOcUZzCa9aw

Hey Cois Just a little shout out to hear how things are going? Hope your keeping well that side with all the craziness going on in the world at the moment.

Hope you come right with your garmin, they are really nice toy to have when working.

Has anyone tried matching the sunrace MZ shifter with a Shimano 11spd rear derailleur? Found an interesting piece in a review stating you could turn an xt 11spd into 12spd by changing the shifter cassette and chain? here is article in question. https://singletrackworld.com/2018/04/exclusive-new-1x12-drivetrain-from-sunrace/

yip same page when I try access it

Link please, cant seem to find it on the site

very nice

The clearance is actually a little tight at the top of the rear triangle. Now that I look again. That said I rodd some pretty muddy stuff today and didnt have any issues. The vittoria saguaro 2.2 i have on are wider than the maxxis I had before.

Thanks!! Going rate is U$D 660 ex shipping, I went direct with Alice at Shenzhen Baolijia Sports Equipment Co.

Clearance on the frame is about the same as what it was on my Silverback Sola, Clearance at the Seat stay, is slightly smaller than at the BB, also running wider 2.25 tires on a wider rim. Will upload some pics of clearance a little later for you. Edit: you can also purchase a boost, plus+ rear triangle which fits the same front triangle if your looking for more clearance or to run a plus wheelset

Looks like SAPO managed to pull this one off just before Christmas. 15 working days via EMS. Dengfu M06, finish seems good, weight without shock, headset, or BB is 2050g size 19", haven't had chance to put the frame through its paces yet. Cockpit it also no name Chinese carbon, trying a neg 17' stem, hence all the spacers above stem. Only things noticed so far is cable routing required the shifter cable enter the frame on the same side as the shifter. Not a problem if you ride your brakes moto (left hand, rear brake) Also shock has to be fitted lockout towards the back, otherwise getting a bottle into the bottle cage is really tight. Otherwise couldn't be happier so far.

If foreign tracking number says that it is at customs then call your regional office, give them the foreign tracking number for which they can then give you the domestic tracking number. https://www.postoffice.co.za/ContactUs/contactdetails.html From my experience so far it can take anything from 1 to 4 weeks once it states that customs has your parcel on the online tracking. From there another week to go through our normal postal service to your local post office.

Just pulled the trigger on a M06 DS frame from dengfu, from what I could read online reviews seem quite good. Anyone riding one of these at the moment? Now just the Looong wait for EMS, hopefully they aren't as backed up as the normal china mail stuff Have a parcel that arrived in the country 02 October and still hasn't been sent to customs for processing, and SAPO Durban tells me there is a 2 month backlog with 1000 bags of mail from china that haven't been opened yet

Anyone used EMS lately for getting a frame here and rough waiting time. Have some other parcels at international mail waitimg to be processed for 2 months now but that was china mail not ems.

Been looking at a carbon ds as well. From what I've read so far. One of the major setbacks for that frame is the brake hose routing that follows the toptube and seat stay bending quite awkwardly with compression These frames fr9m hongfu have better routing but a max tire of 2.2 http://www.hongfu-bikes.com/html_Products/Mountain_Frame/29ER_Mountain_Frame/2017/0622/482.html
