  1. Cheers, yep! some big shoes to fill!
  2. So it allows you to move the front wheel to a more forward or backward position within the fork to give you a faster/slower responding bike. in essence changing the fork rake angle. its a nice idea - i will have to play around with it to see how well it works. currently it is set to 52mm
  3. Thanks! my ole man is Paul Furbank He’s been on the cycling scene a fair while and is the reason I enjoy the sport as much as I do
  4. So I finished this build late on Sunday. Popped it through the wash today and I must admit this bike is a real head turner! I struggled to source a BB and eventually settled with buying an overkill Ceramic Speed BB - damn these things spin forever! Sram force AXS was an easy mount up as always. I chose a few additional manufacturer extras for this bike - the Bossi titanium stem, seatpost and finishing kit(spacers and top cap) really paid off to make this bike stand out. As always brilliant Enve AG25 carbon wheels coupled with Maxxis Rambler 45c tires ensures this bike will have only the plushest of rides. A set of super flared Ritchey WCS carbon bars with some lovely contoured drops finish this build off to give a great first contact with the bike.
  5. I see, I have been using my Google foo and am now informed enough to make poor comments. let me send the supplier the question and get back to you with more info
  6. I’ve read that 4 times now and I’m still not sure what to make of it here have a cookie
  7. Some nuggets to drool over happy Friday everyone
  8. All the parts are now ready for this build. stay tuned for the Bossi Grit SX build with Sram Force AXS and ENVE AG25 wheels
  9. Planning on building a Sram Red AXS build on a blue Aurum Magma stay tuned for build pics
  10. 100% i got a fraudster to pay me back by contacting his family. Believe it, his father was a pastor in CT got 90% of the money back
  11. Where have you been my whole life
  12. Thanks guys, have updated the description to include the size
  13. No one here going to mention the hammerhead Karoo 2?
  14. all i read was someone got a happy ending
  15. not to mention the backgrounds on the two chats are different colours - different phones maybe. but i smell something fishy here
  16. Here we go bud https://lanoysports.co.za/collections/goodyear/products/goodyear-eagle-f1-tubeless-complete?variant=40149761917111
  17. I have some 28mm Goodyears in stock
  18. what type of riding are you doing?
  19. those are apparently incredible - but i hear are crazy expensive
  20. While that might be true - woolies fish goes miff as it leaves their doors. it’s a far cry from fresh
  21. It's not power that is the problem - It's the speed limiters. When riding on a flat section with my Mom her e-bike used to max out at 26. She is nowhere near strong enough to ride alongside me at a pace above that. we removed the limiter and now we are able to ride together at all times - limiters at 26 are stupid. 35 would be more than reasonable
  22. Oof. First results are fairly rubbish considering I skipped riding this weekend. 37 I feel is a little low apparently whoops average for my age is 60! so I have some work to do
  23. i keep walking into the garage and looking at this bike - its ruining my work productivity
  24. i just manually loaded the new software to get HRV onto my Epix Gen 2 looking forward to seeing the data
  25. i was wondering if anyone else would notice that - lol it has been fixed some eagle eyes you have there #youshouldbelookingatthebikenotthetires
