  1. Definitely some fair points raised...and apologies if this goes off topic... When I initially set out to convert to tubeless - I was told that I will need tubeless tyres and rims (multiple bike shops and advice from this forum) I went as far as purchasing a UST Race King...what I should have done is tried the conversion before I bought... The brand new Race King is still in the garage and my entry level, non-UST rims and tyres are now tubeless... Almost 1000km later (regular trips to Teak (blue/black), Groenies, MTN Bike Park, Vori-bergs, USN's - without burping or sidewall damage... Maybe im just extremely lucky - but based on my luck, non-UST for me... Moto-Moto - what worked really well for my tubeless conversion was going to a filling station and inflating with their compressor. I followed the Stans YouTube videos step by step. Also bought a syringe to help fill up the tyre without having to open a section to fill in the liquid...
  2. You can convert any wheel to tubeless!! UST - not worth the extra cash + they are heavier!
  3. 14.28 kms on Endomondo... Awesome ride - may need to bump up the distance though Looking forward to the 29th! The actual route we took: http://www.endomondo.com/workouts/14383783
  4. The Critical Mass ride in JHB tonight is going to be insanely cold!!
  5. Looking forward to the ride tonight!
  6. Cool bike... ever thought about converting to rigid?
  7. Kapersky 2012 - Internet Security Dropped you a mail earlier..
  8. Damn - didnt work for me... re-installed plus cleared cache... any other suggestions?
  9. I have the same issue...
  10. Was a great day out...A well organised race.. Some of the single tracks through Cullinan section was superb, albeit in terribly smelly in some places - lol Pity about the traffic on some of the single track sections early in the race - would have loved to have attempted some of the technical bits with the appropriate momentum... The longer wooden bridge punctured my front wheel - one of the wooden planks turned upside down with the nails facing up... Viva Stans Viva!
  11. I personaly would like to have a choice of what marketing I receive - and what I dont... Its as simple as that... Have a proper "opt-in" / "opt-out" on all forms...
  12. last time i checked there were around 220 ppl who entered online for the 30km! 60km was 110 odd... expect a full field tomorrow... my 2nd MTB race - so will be hoping to have an ride tomorrow...
  13. I registered on SA-Active... When I called Tour De Frans - they could not give me an indication of how they got my contact details... Their "marketing" lady got the list from somewhere...They couldnt confirm where I had consented to direct marketing - which is an issue in the eyes of CPA! This is a criminal offence and I will be contacting the NCC... "From April 1 the National Consumer Commission can be contacted on 0860-266-786"
  14. interesting - great balance - ultra strong spokes!
  15. lol! things people make money off!
  16. an extreme car needs an extreme bonnet scoop! 1760nm is INSANE! Good luck in keeping this monster in a straight line... will be an extremely opposite-locking-jaw breaking- Sunday drive... I'd rather settle for a Ariel Atom...
  17. Any opinions/experiences with the EBC Gold Stuff pads? These are the sintered option from EBC... They also make Green Stuff - resin...
  18. that sucks! They sure look really good though... Saw a GT Zaskar at FPC with a set of blue Cobalts... hope you manage to sort the issue out...
  19. unless you "un-suction" them - toss them in the boot and re-apply them when u ready to rock n roll again...
  20. I grew tired of having my water bottles full of mud/sand... Fitted a The mud guard - which works well.. Doesnt ever stop the dust from settling on the water bottle nozzle - nothing practical can help with that... But we are MTB'ers after all...the elements should only aid in our perseverance...
  21. Also - is there any security device that will stop the cups from being stolen?
  22. Wow - whats the price on one of these??
  23. Hi Lizle Can we come into your store to purchase? Its tough to see some of the pictures you posted above...
  24. Just cant do it! I have my 1st MTB race this weekend - Voriberg. Last time I was in the saddle was this past Saturday for a 30km ride (pretty flat)... How much trouble am I in?
