  1. Kyk dalk na Fulcrum of selfs Crank Bros Cobalt As jy wiele wil bou kyk miskien na Hope Hubs met Mavic rims. Industry 9 is ook dalk n opsie - net Fhokken duur.
  2. How about diff crank arms? 175mm on the good leg - 172.5 on the other - could sort out the diff with shims or even 175/170 if needed. Worth a try I guess?
  3. I had lots of fun yesterday - I just seem to feel better when its raining during a Tri. How did everyone go? Swim was nasty - bike was lekka - and just hung on for the run. Good times. It was a bit cold waiting for the transition to open so I could get some dry clothes. Will leave my bag at the bag area next time!!!
  4. Try Veloflex, He imports kit from Spain - he might have something for you.
  5. R 3500 is well worth it. Ill sort out your other stuff today - let me know when you are going Rufftenburg! Later
  6. I got M4`s on the Zula - "When in doubt, go flat out!" - Nothing stops like M4`s!!! Specially for the fuller figures among us! If you weigh 65kg anything will do - Remember : Momentum = Mass X Velocity!!! Its all about physics!
  7. Im riding one currently and Im quite impressed. Service it regularly and to goes really well - had it for a year now with no problems. It holds up better than my Fox - but it is just personal opinion.
  8. No rule against being a Douche! Doesnt mean you have to deal with him. Maybe he is incapable of negotiation or just a doesnt want to - its not going to help his sale though. No rule says you have to respond - but it is good manners - manners cant be enforced.
  9. 1. Hope X2 2. XTR 3. Formula R1 4. XT That`s my recommendation in that order.
  10. Nice!!!!! So there is room for improvement!
  11. Would that be a Change in occupation?
  12. No matter what happens on the swim - just keep swimming - dont stop!! Eat on the bike and take it a little easier than you think you should - leave some tiger in the tank for the run. Slow down a little on the last 1 km. Start the run a little slower that you plan to run and use shorter strides - after 800m - 1km get onto your natural tempo & stride. Smile & have fun. Enjoy. See you there.
  13. Momsen - Lynskey - Salsa - Turner - Niner
  14. See what happens when Greece defaults on their repayment! Damm the Greeks!! Euro takes the strain and we go down with it! Support local industry I guess! Is this going to effect CWC/CRC pricing? Keep a close eye!
  15. Try and swop the magnet form the little black one to the bigger sliver/shiny one. Apparently the little black ones are known for failing. new one costs R 40.00 from polar. Found that was the problem on mine after sending the speed sensor and watch back 3 times. Little light use to flash for a few seconds and then goes dead. Apparently has something to do with the smaller magnets loosing their "charge" and not strong enough to be picked up.
  16. Be nice. 1. Those tekkies are kiff 2. Backstreet boys make passionate music - wiff a beat!!! 3. Gam-gam gave me that seatband and Will Farrel wear one on the cover of semi pro - on sale at the Spar next to my house. 4. I have loong leggese and likes da friktion - gras pol in die hol gevoel! 5. Welome da pain - Enya helps me go to dat special place where I cans like to do 90Rpm at 100% - and get de gras pol gevoel! I dont care who says what. Straight or not - that sweat band is a babe magnet!
  17. Simple answer - No. Return on investment is not worth it. Rolling smoothness is increased by only perhaps 2 % due to low RPM but price increase 300% There is also no proof that it will last longer as the cups are still metal. Hope that helps
  18. Hey karnati, Take it to Ruan from Spoke Works - he is in PTA close to the Rossouw st off-ramp from the N4 east. Best guy in Gauteng. SRAM Tech Centre info AT sramtechcentre DOT co DOT za or 082 412 one 689
  19. Out of line - Buckcherry Take it off - the Donna`s Runnin Wild - Airbourne Haifich - Ramstein Devil in a midnight mass - Billy Talent Underdog - Kasabian In the Blood - Better than Ezra Song to say goodby - Placebo I believe in a thing called love - The Darkness Foo Fighters Queens of the Stoneage Blue October - If Im really pissed They say - Scars on Broadway - when its really requires focus!
  20. Matt`s a lekka oke to deal with. Looking forward to testing the HT 29 in Feb. Keep it rollin big guy!
  21. Try kingalton - I think he was try to swing his entry. Dont know if its still availible. Good luck
  22. You become a tjop when you have to ask other people "when do you become a tjop?"
  23. Question - How much should you spin to get super fit? Answer - as much as you can + 4 hours. If you are trying to get in shape - spinning is the safest answer - no impact and you control the tempo. Try and spinn 3 times a week - 2 X 45min + 1 x 90 min On alternating days try some weight or resistance training just as a change. You should start seeing results from week 3 onwards - start out easy. Remember - train today so that you want to train again tomorrow. No use hurting yourself in the first 2 week and then you are out for the next 3. Keep it skanky!!!
  24. Race organizers should have pre race inspections - in the start gate. Only fair - I had to pay to ride there!
  25. Looks good - always nice to have option. Lets hope the competition drives prices down and make it more accessible to all of us. Keen to see how accurate it is!
