    Dilemma

    Sram is king and easy to maintain. My 2c.
  2. Sounds like they forgot to clear coat a batch of bikes. Silly mistake. I am sure the job has been re-done properly and well done to Morewood for taking it upon themselves to correct it. They shouold maybe also contact the other buyers to let them know now rather than later!
  3. +1
  4. I am changing over to Marine grease. It is blue in colour and thicker than normal grease. It should hold out better than normal grease.
  5. We didn't use a bike service shop and we were ok. There are a few guys there who look for business. We were amazed at how many repair shops were available. they travelled with the Epic so no worries. Check the Epic website I saw a few guys advertising there.
  6. Me too. Going to go past the shop today and see what it's worth.
  7. I used my Garminlast year with all the features on. They don't seem to check. I think if someone gets caught on the private land then they will enforce it much harder. I saw lots of guys with Garmins. Personaly I wouldn't worry too much. If you want to make 100% sure just send them a mail and see what their reply is. Just my 2c.
  8. I have just received my copy of the "Absa Cape Epic 2010 Annual" book. What a great piece to remember the ride and the race. Just one more item to the special experience I had last year. It has some great photos and runs through the event in a little detail. It may be an expensive race but the way it is run is phenomenal and with any luck I will be doing it again in 2012.
  9. Thanks for all the feedback. Going with the Arch's. Got some Hope hubs so going to get them built up when the rims arrive. Can't wait to get them and give them a go. It would seem the best way to go for my riding style and weight. Thanks again all.
  10. For those in the know please help. Which is the best 29er rim from the list below. a ZTR FLOW b ZTR ARCH c ZTR CREST I am looking for reliability and weight is not of my highest concern but I don't want to buy concrete wheels. Want to run them tubleless if that helps. Thanks
  11. It is supposed to go according to hours ridden. I don't know the exact figures but they should be sent in for a seal service every 100 hours I think, they should also change the oil around that time.
  12. Tried locktite and no progress. Heard that it might be the chainring bolts. Going to try them today. Will also grease up the skewers. Don't think it is the headset as the noise is there even if I am not really holding on tight. Just when power is put through the crank. If anyone else has anything please let me know. Thanks
  13. I work in Simons Town and I am dead sure that Stephan rode past my shop this morning.
  14. 1 Tube 2 Chain links (2( 3 Multitool 4 Plugs (if tubeless) 5 Cable ties (2) 6 Latex gloves (in case of blood on other people) 7 A bag of hope that you don't need to use any of the above.
  15. It's probably cause you killed that snake!!!!

  17. Like when my mate tried to prove to me that he could breathe through his ears.
  18. Bet you I have seen them. Look 5 posts above. ha ha you owe me!
  19. He was lost for words most of the interview. Full of cr*p. If you believe in that sort of rubbish you don't deserve a refund.
  20. Morning. Can I start this off please. I would like some Egg Beater 4 ti's. I just feel a new bike should have some new pedals. Thanks guys.
  21. It says he was arrested. I hope so. I hope he rots in jail for years to come.
  22. What's the difference between this and the jub jub case? They got inot their vehicles and they used them as weapons. Maybe unintentionally but none the less it is manslaughter. Why is our countries law system so useless? It seems 9 times out of 10 it protects the criminals. One has to wonder how far we go before we turn into a banana republic. It is very sad indeed. Just too many stories like this every day.
  23. Only a matter of time before she is giving Speedy and the like a run for their money. Looks pretty wet where you are.
  24. Do you have a link for the video? I have been to their website and can't seem to find it!! Thanks
  25. I don't know but I think Graeme has been there for a long time and needs to go. From what goes around though he is very powerful in the cricket world and I don't think it will happen. I still think that boucher has missed out on being captain. He would be one of my choices. Good question though.
