Dibles

I usually deflate my tyres slightly but I have accidentally flown without deflating them and they were fine.

Contact these guys: http://www.mtbskills.co.za/contact.aspx I've had one-on-one training with them in the past and they are very good. I'm sure they will help you even if you only have a road bike.

Sossage, do you have a road bike or mtb? Dibles2010-02-21 12:11:52

Here's a post about doing a tubeless conversion with Racing Ralphs. https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=42723 It does work with Stans but if you read the post by Shamus (Schwalbe rep) you will see it is not recommended by Schwalbe. I only had issues with one of my tyres when I ran a Stans/Oko tubeless setup. I reckon both Stans and Doc Blu would do the job but I am not willing to risk voiding the warranty or picking up issues during a race and that is why I chose to go with the safest option.

Stans apparently has ammonia in it: https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=66328&KW=ammonia&PID=974899#974899

Weight Weenie, have you ever used Doc Blu? Schwalbes are not cheap but for me they are worth it. I paid over R600 for a tyre and perhaps you can afford to replace tyres on a very regular basis but I can't therefore a warranty is important to me. Each to their though I guess. Doc Blu works as well as Stans and costs about the same too so why not use it? The tyre of mine that got a bubble had been used for quite a few months so I'm sure if it was a manufacture fault I would have picked it up earlier.

You can buy it off the shelf. Just ask your bike shop to order it if they don't have stock. It is reasonably priced too.

Have a look at the pic here of what happened to one of my Schwalbe tyres as I didn't use Doc Blu sealant: https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=45881&KW=Schwalbe This is on page 3 of the same thread: I have been using Doc Blu ever since and haven't had any issues.

Only ever use Doc Blu sealant with Schwalbe tyres else you will void the warranty. PM Shamus for advice. He is the sole agent for Schwalbe in SA.

Their latest blog: http://fredhatman.co.za/?p=2480 They are also running a competition to raise funds. Well worth the R25 ticket cost. "So they came up with this cracking idea? they have organised an online raffle in which you can buy a ticket to be in line to win one of these stunning prizes? * Three nights at a wonderful villa in Camps Bay, Cape Town, courtesy of Cape Realty * Two nights at the Constantia Boutique Hotel, courtesy of The Last Word * A weekend away at Friday island Resort * A chef for the night, courtesy of Capsicum Cooking * Golf lessons, courtesy of Cape Town Golf Academy * R800 voucher for an authentic Tretchikoff print, courtesy of VladimirTretchikoff.com * R500 Spa voucher, courtesy of Health Spa Guru * A signed Ajax Cape Town football shirt, courtesy of Ajax Cape Town * A half-day tour around the Cape Peninsula, courtesy of Executive Touring * A prize courtesy of Wildcard (TBC) *** Ticket prices are R25 each All you need to do to enter is mosey on over to this hastily-made but effective website page to buy a ticket! Nice. You each give R25 to help us finish our mad unicycle adventure and you could win ? I am sure you will agree ? a really, really cool prize. I like this. A competition in which there are no losers. Because even, if by some cruel twist of fate ? and that is highly unlikely to happen to YOU ? you don?t land up swanning around a Camps Bay villa for a couple of days, you?ll have WON the satisfaction of knowing you helped us to help people who don?t have the same number of limbs that you and I have. Phenomenalness, isn?t it? Yes, it is."

This is really upsetting. Hope your friend is okay. Cyclesport had a meeting with the police about all these attacks in January. Not sure what the outcome was though. See https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=72133&KW

This was taken last week at Groenies (sorry no animals in the pic). We are really fortunate to be able to ride there.

Thanks. Not me! Yes, it is Groenies. You can hire mtb bikes there so give it a go some day.

Sorry. Come join me next Thursday morning. Ride starts at 6 am.

Unfortunately the closest mtb routes in that area is where there have been a few bike jackings. Contact Epic Sports as they have a few afternoon mtb rides and they are not far from Die Hoewes.

You are correct, Holy.

I'm sure we could make a plan to courier the cake up here.
