  1. Thanks. I will go and have a look.
  2. Does anybody know if these are available locally?
  3. Has anybody seen or have SRAM wheels? What is your opinion of them? Any prices?
  4. Hey Gremlin... Watch this space.... It's coincidence that you mention it but at the moment we are busy putting packages together like the US do... We will be launching it soon... My luck. Will receive mine and then the offer starts.
  5. Yes also had great service from them. Also a replaced unit, no questions.
  6. Mine also dont lock and it is not suppose to lock. You should however feel the difference when you activate the pro pedal.
  7. And anybody know if these are in prescription? Yes the set I ordered are prescription. Have not received them yet, takes 4 - 6 weeks.
  8. SLX. Spares are available anywhere. Good value.
  9. Even better, they quoted me R4151 for only the lenses, including the frame the price was R8141. That is for the frame that CWC is advertising for R1599 I think. Luckily I have a frame.
  10. I am waiting for prescription set. Lenses alone is R4151 for Rydons.
  11. Where is the website that we can vote in favour of Vuvu's? I am sure that will manage quite a bit more votes than the paltry 19k something these idiots have got.
  12. I know that kit! Def not MTN. (hint) Only 2 guys on that team ride Cannondales. I cant really see which one it is but will phone both and congratulate them on gettin a 10 page thread going. Anyway looks like a lot of fun.
  13. It can definately be a lower back problem. If the cuschion between L4 - L5 or L5 - S1 is damaged it can pinch the nerves running into your legs. This can happen without any 'incident' taking place. MRI will definately show it. If that is the problem go see dr Hanhle at Linksfield. He replaced L5 S1 with an artificial disc and less than 1 year later I did Sani2C and can do anything I did before.

    Tri bike

    In my last IM I rode a P2 that was set up pretty relaxed, high upfront. I am a lot more flexible now and would go a bit more agressive. What I need to know is how the geometry differs from a P2 to a P3 to a Planet X or a Spez?

    Tri bike

    I got permission to do Iron Man again, so I am looking for a time trial bike. Any recommendations. I am leaning towards a P3 or a Spez. Only want to buy a frame and build it up myself. Size 58cm if you have anything lying around in that size.TryBoy2009-06-09 07:41:35
  18. Agree with Wolverine. A bottle or t-Shirt also gives the sponsor a lot more exposure.

    Q-Rings

    Q-Rings

    I know this topic has been discussed lots of times. I ride Q-Rings on my road bike and absoluty love them. Does any hubbers ride them on their mountain bikes and what is your experience? TryBoy2009-05-20 06:44:10
  21. Mule packs MORE than enough for a day ride. I always forget to take out stuff and end up with too many things in mine.
  22. I tried KCNC on SRAM but also went back to the original. They definately spin better.
  23. I cant seem to find recommended pressures for rear shocks on the Fox website. I know it can be done with sag but would like to test this. I assume though that the pressure is specific to each bike?
  24. Exotic? then look at the Ellsworth as well.
  25. Mr Min. After you cleaned it with soap and water.
