  1. Hey guys. I have a Commencal Premier vb01 2011 frame. I'm modding it and want to know what amount of travel on a fork could I change to? I'm thinkinf of a Rock Shox Tora 130mm travel fork. Here is the geometry of the frame: SEAT TuBE LEnGTH - 450mm SEAT TuBE AnGLE - 73° HEAD TuBE AnGLE - 69,5° HEAD TuBE LEnGTH - 120mm WHEEL BASE - 1062,2mm TOP TuBE LEnGTH - 575mm CHAIn STAy LEnGTH - 425mm BB HEIGHT - -38mm FORk Length - 470mm Much appreciated guys.
  2. Just wanted to know if you guys that commute all have showers at work or what do you do? I started riding to work 3 days out of the week a week ago and now the boss says he wants me to shower first so I don't come in all sweaty. The problem is that there aren't any showers at our workplace... Maybe I should just wash in the sink lol and then spray deoderant...
  3. I live about the same distance as you from work an I started commutin on my bike 3 times a week and it's great! It's not such a far distance so I'm usually not very sweaty so it's fine. I also bought a pair of Shimano MT33 shoes for commuting and they're awesome! I have an extra pair if anyone wants.
  4. What you guys think of smoking hubbly and cycling? It definitely affects my performance!
  5. Yep, road I am keen to do that ride, just not too sure if I can keep up with you. I haven't cycled since the 94.7 last year.
  6. Thanks. I'll make sure to do that.
  7. Hey guys,I used to cycle with the Alberton south guys but have moved to Fourways. Are there any weekend group rides that I can join or is there only Cycle lab? Please, I really need to get back into training.
  8. This is ridiculous! I can't believe how bad "bike" crime has gotten... also a reason why I want to move Cape side... I'm keen for a big group ride otherwise perhaps another area besides Fourways/Broadacres side? I often cycle in the South/Alberton side and this does not happen as often as it does here in Fourways it seems.
  9. I am definitely keen... keep me posted
  10. Seeing as the 94.7 is just around the corner, anyone keen to ride in the Fourways area - evening or mornings (just a quick 20-30km ride).
  11. JHB north? I'm keen for that hey!

  13. Are there any group rides in the Fourways area?
