  1. Run them tubeless at probably too much pressure, gotta be honest. I will measure, but probably quite high - I am a big person, though.
  2. Rode there yesterday - peach of a day!
  3. My Ardents have been extremely durable, but not the most grippy on the front. Still, wouldn't change 'em!

    Growing up in Krugersdorp and riding that place stukkend. Kadimah BMX track. Acropolis Cafe on a Saturday morning to waste my pocket money on Tarzan Boy and Ms. PacMan Walking through the veld after school and going down to the spruit - if you're from Noordheuwel, you will know what I'm talking about. My friend Gerhard's parents owned Hillsnax at a time - slap tjips and tomato sauce after walking there on the freeway!!! Getting my Raleigh Grifter in Std1, and NEVER, EVER going to school by car again - even at KHS (until we moved to Durbs) Another time, people Might as well be Mars, if you look at our world these days...

Reinforced by a recent trip with home made frame bags. I had only a small bit of luggage, yet I still packed too much. The minimalist nature of it appeals to me. When I have my full rig done, I will be multi month self-sufficient. Enjoy the road, man!!!
  12. You're going down the rabbit-hole, man! Welcome - I got there a while back.
  13. You learn something new every day: I thought it was 2 max...

  16. Geoff Moorehouse did it for me in the UK. R676.00 including postage. I know it's a lot, but worth it.

  18. Something finally arrived from the U.K:
  19. My InBred was a filler bike until i had enough moola for a "dream" bike. Never bought the "dream" bike in the end. Just kept the Inbred!
