  1. Or pay R30k or more for carbon so you can enjoy one or more extra beers per night 🙂
  2. I think the riders only arrive in the week before and they're the ones who make the requests. What do the UCI know about actual bike riding anyway....
  3. Not very much - some pads, filling in the rock wall ride gap ( damn) - anything else? Most of the the top riders are having no issues with the tech features. The rest of the track is pretty natural (when they not on a tar road) and quite challenging too.
  4. Those slippery when wet log paved landings and corner plus the very jagged rocks between the two lanes they created on the rocky drop off look dodgy. I would not be surprised if some changes are made before the race.
  5. Well done Spesh. Perhaps feeling the pinch a bit as the punters run out of cash for their more exorbitant offerings? It's almost affordable 😉
  6. Greg got 25th in the finals on Saturday. Working his way back up with a separated shoulder. The youngsters in the team are both injured - broken femur and broken hand. Its all on Greg now.
  7. And poor Jackson is now sidelined with a knee injury for the whole season it seems.
  8. Luke Moir is 8th overall in U23 XCC. When did it last look so good for SA in XC? Maybe never.
  9. https://www.pinkbike.com/news/elite-qualifying-results-from-the-val-di-sole-dh-world-cup-2024.html Live timing of teh DH qualies and semi. Looks like Pompon is back on form.
  10. This is such a great sport. More and more i find that anything else, F1, Moto X etc pales into insignificance compared to this. You can buy a bike imagine your a WC racer going down DH 3 and then watch them do it properly. Yeehaa.
  11. He came 45th in the semi-final so didn't make the cut. It was a brilliant race. Bruni in a class of his own.
  12. Can confirm that they do indeed do a lifetime warranty.
  13. What is that strange appendage top center?
  14. Aren't all bib wearing roadies exhibitionists? MTB riders should have baggies on over their see through bibs anyway.
  15. episodes are coming thick and fast as the TDF approaches 🙂
  16. Can you ever rely on a merchants website reviews of their own product? Maybe an independent retailers site might be a better place to look.
  17. Went over my head 🙂
  18. Nope, everyone gets it on this channel, especially the old dopers now involved with teams where athletes break doper records from years ago and are supposedly "clean".
  19. That and paying back all their earnings while riding like doped rats
  20. Another option is the Rapide hub. 28/32, sound good and mine has been very reliable
