  1. Jawbones!! Pity they are so expensive! Got quoted on photochromic lenses - R1500 to R1700!!!! For lenses!!!!! Before I got the Jawbones, I used a pair of Diesel (Star Uncle which were pretty decent... Point being - cycle in whatever you are comfortable in...
  2. No thanks... Looks cheesy!
  3. July 29th - looking forward to it... Got a few new guys joining the ride...
  4. Looking forward to the ride again! I definitely have a feeling our numbers will be up again!
  5. How many guys currently ride? What sort of distance/speed/time do you do? Im not the strongest/fastest rider... My main concern is safety - heard lots of stories relating to bike jackings and attempted jackings?
  6. Couldnt agree more! If you compare component for component - nothing else comes close... I managed to find a 2010 Silverback Nabraska (same specs as the Ventura)for under 7k....

    Kwaaaawhwahahhahaha!!!! classic!!!
  8. 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...
  9. You can convert any wheel to tubeless!! UST - not worth the extra cash + they are heavier!
  10. 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
  11. The Critical Mass ride in JHB tonight is going to be insanely cold!!
  12. Looking forward to the ride tonight!
  13. Cool bike... ever thought about converting to rigid?
  14. Kapersky 2012 - Internet Security Dropped you a mail earlier..
  15. Damn - didnt work for me... re-installed plus cleared cache... any other suggestions?
  16. I have the same issue...
  17. 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!
  18. 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...
  19. 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...
  20. 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"
  21. interesting - great balance - ultra strong spokes!
  22. lol! things people make money off!
  23. 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...
  24. Any opinions/experiences with the EBC Gold Stuff pads? These are the sintered option from EBC... They also make Green Stuff - resin...
  25. 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...
