Good luck with that

Bikes and general festive activities (ie. drinking!) Big ass 36" bike last up

Some more of the track

Some of the track

Getting there - still a bit slow from all the whiskey

Lucky enough to have gone - what a jol and the most amazing track

You learn something new everyday...........I thought spooning was something TOTALLY different

Saw in the results that the race time was a fair bit longer than normal - was it a different route?

+1 on that, they were great help and got everything I wanted I went with the gear clamp they have on their website - I get tired quickly

6 Beers before to carbo load and 12 afterwards to celebrate surviving. Have never finished in the top half of the field though so probably crappy advice

Imagine what thats going to weigh in at with only 1 gear

OK Thanks Will probably wait till I am home in June as I need to check the BCD in any case

Have a 32T so want to get a 34 and 36T

Thanks. Where are they based or do they only do online sales?

have a 2nd hand GT Peace with EBB. Got a fair variety of rear cogs with the sale but looking for some options up front. Does anybody in SA sell single speed chain rings - advice would be welcome?

Anthem - awesome ride and it is way under the 50K budget as a bonus

I never declared mine but I also specifically bought a relatively cheap bike so that if there were/are customs problems I could abandon it with little financial loss.

Love Groenies - only home for two weeks every two months but I think when I am home I spend just about every second day there

Mampara's design and then design #1

Try Epic Cycles - worth it trust me Epic Sports Shop 19/20 Doringkloof Mall Centurion South-Africa (012) 667-6473

Rode both while looking for a 29er. To be fair though neither of the rides was on any seriously challenging or technical tracks. Personally preferred the Giant although I don't like flat bars and did not think much of the brakes. Felt light and very responsive. You certainly don't get the impression that either bike is heavy while riding, in fact I think they weigh significantly less than my 26" dually.

This is probably the cheapest new fork you would be able to get in SA at the moment http://www.planet-x-bikes.co.za/c111/29.aspx
