  1. Wonder what the upgrade is, hardware or software?
  2. Some sellers incl amazon etc will refund the vat if you can prove its coming to Sa, most won't unless you ship with their carriers to your Sa address. Using ASG means you will have a local Uk/us address on your order and hence be charged their vat and then Sa vat/duties when it arrives in Sa.
  3. Nice one! So how does it grind?
  4. Do you need to cart that whole lot to Sars and wait in the queue!?
  5. ^ cost and where from?
  6. Probably more like a R120 savings because the ASS MAGIC is only 200ml. That being said for suckers that pay R150 for R120ml of chainlube R140 for 200ml of ASS MAGIC won't seem so bad. Where can you get that Milking cream/balm from, I'm assuming pet stores won't stock it
  7. "there will also be a range of branded apparel available." ASS MAGIC branded apparel, LOVE YOUR BUM, no innuendo at all. Probably sell like hot cakes, hey bro check my new ASS MAGIC tee, leke hey? Think I should get an ASS MAGIC - LOVE YOUR BUM bandanna to go with it? :D
  8. Are you going to fix Cobus's one free of charge or send him some new ones? (If you haven't already). They aren't cheap so at least they should work 100%, especially if the guy went all out and supported you from the beginning..
  9. Those are pretty damn expensive, if you buy one locally will it have the crash warranty, ie you get a replacement for 50% off or something to that effect if you get mashed via the head?
  10. I personally don't like it when my houses are guided under the downtube.
  11. That's a good point but cannisters can add up, especially when you have an annoying tyre that won't mount.
  12. Very handy product price isn't so crazy considering bike industry prices.
  13. In the article "Schwalbe is now launching the Tire Booster, which was developed in collaboration with the British start-up Airshot"
  14. Field of view - Gopro's use a very wide angle lens, rather distorted fish eye type perspective if the subject is close up, linear mode removes the perspective distortion, not sure how exactly but it it looks much better, for close up stuff like interviewing someone or showing a closeup of something etc. The higher the quality the better the video image but the faster the memory card gets filled up and image stabilisation can't be used at 4k. Hi Fps means smoother footage at normal playback rate and the ability to make super slow mo videos from the footage. For most uses 60fps at 1080 is plenty, if you want super slowed down then do 120fps or of you have a special need for high res footage them go higher quality 4k etc but for most situations that's probably a waste of space(on the Gopro itself and clogging up your computer hdd space, 4k files are enormous).
  15. Is that not perhaps Jacaranda?
  16. Super glue should work like a charm, gel variety probably the best.
  17. Do pray tell! Use a roller?
  18. Here are some more angles:
  19. That sounds about right, what about the bit on the left, it has 2 extra sides 6 sided, and each end exactly the same.
  20. Anyone know what these tools below are? The one has like a tapered square I've seen quite a few times before, normally with screwdriver on them but I'm not sure what tool it fits, the other has a similar raper but on both sides
  21. Very mooi! Pic with you doing a wheelie? [emoji14]
  22. Suppose it's a consolation that they weren't pistol whipped/shot/raped/hijacked/murdered/armed robbery etc. Theft to varying degrees is everywhere since time immemorial, the violence that accompanies it in Sa is the hard pill to swallow.
  23. Looks like quite an upgrade, image stabilisation, 3 mics etc
  24. Well I suppose at least it wasn't his personal bike, BMW will have to write that one off to marketing. Is there a video of it?
  25. And preferably not on a R100k+ bike that's still peachy and fresh. Nothing like an ill conceived wheelie to show the boys your latent stuntman skills.
