  1. bye bye bearings
  2. BB plays in the means hills of the south. short steep rocky climbs. he rides a 34:20 if I remember correctly.
  3. Only if you Bryceland it.
  4. Rigids can jump
  5. Absolutely loving this jam at the moment. on my riding playlist great cadence
  6. hahaha thanx hahaha
  7. Straight on the Spruit
  8. I heard the water will shrink your wheels and make your suspension sag.
  9. If you don't mind the small weight penalty, then flow all the way. They are the chuck Norris of zrt rims.
  10. hahahahah
  11. Why you look at me when you state point #1
  12. my thought exactly. He'll ride faster through most single track on his rigid SS than most guys on dualies
  13. so nice http://www.topeak.com/products/Homeshop-Tools/prepstation
  14. probably about the same 18 or 17, which ever you have or can get. Don't think the difference would be worth the hassle of looking for and paying for one or the other,
  15. I did it two years ago on my 29er Gt peace and gearing was 32:18 only really struggled on the second day in that there was a wet section that was too steep to sit and climb but once I stood up I had no traction. So walked through that and was fine afterwards. SabieX is very do-able on the SS.
  16. None that i am aware of.
  17. There are alot of races that have a SS catagory but most dont. just go out and race. As for Ratio not sure how strong you are but I would recommend starting on a 34:16 and working from that.
  18. have a Look at some of these forums https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/109398-style-of-chain-tensioner-i-used/ https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/116927-lots-of-questions-for-my-ss-build/ https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/133982-want-to-build-an-ss-from-gt-karakoram-10/
  19. Good humour
  20. go ride your bike
  21. I just had WTB KOM built onto novatec hubs by Dave Marshall. took them out for the first ride today and very very happy. Cheap as chips too. https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/101528-hand-built-wheels-spring-specials/
