  1. Hi I'm new to Presta valves and am struggling to get the valve out in order to slime up the tube. (One step at a time, tubless will follow...) How the flip do I get the vavle out? I tried a long-nose pliers but it felt like I was going to strip the valve and ruin the tube. Any Operating Experience?
  2. sweet thanks people
  3. Word. Can anyone tell me who distributes Rock Shox in SA? Struggling to find uselful info on the web...
  4. I recently bought one of the 900 lumen Magicshine lights. It is insane. I use it to cycle to work in the mornings and it does what I need and more. And the buddy I bought it from is a legend too so it helps with the after-sale service. Gets my vote!

    Giant Anthem X2

    I'm hoping someone can help me out here. Looking to get a Giant Anthem X2 for the Sabie Experience, and then future XC races. It'll be my first dual suspension bike. I thought of a carbon hard-tail, but I'm a bit skeptical when it comes to everyday care for the frame; stuff like having the bike fall over in my garage and damaging the frame. Anyway. Also heard that the standard Fox 32 F100RL can be a bit soft for a heavier rider. How does the Rock Shox SID team compare? And then, does the standard Fox Float RP2 shock come out with a lockout?
