  1. I have a fork with a shock, so no bolts, but this have me some ideas. Thanks
  2. HI All Where can I get a front pannier / front rack for touring ?
  3. Hi All I enjoy Mountain Biking, but would like to do some bike touring. Most of the youtube videos and channels I follow the guys have gravel bikes. Has anybody converted their MTB to a hybrid MTB / Gravel Bike ? I have a Momsen AL129 - 2021 model. https://momsenbikes.com/shop/uncategorized/al129-my21-2/
  4. Does anybody have a way of communicating between riders. Some nice 2 way earpieces maybe. Any suggestions ?
  5. Any groups riding on weekends in Centurion ?

  8. Hi All I'm planning my first bike touring trip for December. Anybody newbies interested to join me ? Will need only the basic equipment as I am planning to stay over at campsites with facilities.
  9. I just bought a self-inflating mattress from Tentco. It weighs 3.58kg but it's 10cm thick. Is the weight worth it when bike touring ?
  10. for cycling ? do you have a pic where they are mounted on you bicycle ?
  11. Hi All What solar panels for recharging your phones and power banks do you use ? How long do they last ?
  12. Remember to check your towbar's download. Wanted to buy one to fit 4 bikes and then realized that my bosal towbar for my Suzuki can only handle 50kg.
  13. What does the ones you want to import look like ?
  14. The are not in the stores in Alberton, Boksburg or Centurion. This morning I see that they have been removed from their SA website as well. I was looking to buy the 2 off the 20L ones.
  15. Here's a cheap but worth while pannier: https://www.takealot.com/fine-health-bicycle-rear-rack/PLID72292092?gclid=Cj0KCQjw6s2IBhCnARIsAP8RfAj4ztyEDRvr2887HyTW9hOZ_gEVwSbeTz4IPZZzX_vFx50aP6_iV_YaAjApEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
  16. Hi There. I see all your weight is on the back. Does it work nice for you ?
  17. Looking at where the "crack" starts and ends it looks funny, as it it should start in the welding toe. If you are willing to polish away the paint you can do a quick dye-penetrant test. If you in the Alberton/Germiston area let me know.
  18. How much do you want for it ?
  19. Hi. According to the website it is 2.6kg. Is it not too heavy ?
  20. Hi There. The group is very active. Every weekend. This weekend there is 3 or 4 rides. I asked them on the whatsapp group to add you. I saw your posting on strava first time. If they did not ask you by tomorrow I will follow-up.
  21. Hi All I've looked at a lot of tents this last week. How many of you has a tent that weighs 2.0kg ? I'm only gonna buy once. Lighter than 2.0kg is either very expensive very small. For 2.0kg I can get something like this: https://www.campcraft.co.za/product/oztrail-tasman-2-person-dome-tent/?utm_source=Google Shopping&utm_campaign=Google shopping product feed&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=9460&gclid=Cj0KCQjwu7OIBhCsARIsALxCUaN2gaIXERHhbsKFcW7QB4LwDl81Nu1XbFkVD-2vwI45vfWKUwmbfZQaAn04EALw_wcB What your guys opinion ?
  22. Thanks for all the answers. I liked this feedback. This is exactly how I will be starting. Same distances. First one maybe from Springs (Jhb) to Hennopspride, next day Harties and then 2 days back in some way. Or someone to pick me up. The pic of your bike also helped as I bought a entry level bike and was worried that it is not good enough Thanks All
