  1. Just a note... It may be because I am getting old... I have a carbon HT... When I rode it at SuikerbosRand my back hurt like hell... however... I ride my rode bike all the time and it feels as smooth as butter... Geometry is different... I am not sure what it is... but it aint comfortable!
  2. I have mentioned before... I ride the kakest, cheapest RRs that are not even tubeless... and I run them tubeless... in 9 months of riding... never had a problem... and I have been riding in the Rhenoster Concervancy... pelindaba rock... sharp rocks and thorns and loose rock everywhere! I never ride less than 2 bar on 2.1(too soft on the wrong terrain and you will get side wall cuts no matter what tyre)... and I have american classic rims (perfect fit for almost any tyre)
  3. Site needs flash player... And if you can get a spot you are either related to the organizers or you murdered someone and took their place
  4. On a 9 speed chain... I use this for the PowerLink: Missing Link Remover Sometimes it gets opened and closed 10 times before I replace the chain... and then I use a new one with a new chain... But I wonder if I could still reuse it??? I am sure I can
  5. cmon... thats a good one! :clap:
  6. HAHA... Mr western cape... I heard about you guys... spend more time looking at the mountain than actually riding... I think the sport you should stick to is watching TV... For someone to be smart enough not to let his sport rule his life is in my books the "better man" go G-Unit!... Making every ride epic is impossible... unless you are the poser! but making the ride that you want to be epic, epic... now that makes a true cyclist... @DD: I suggest should get a tighter fit... because your stuff is bouncing around like an amateur..pffft
  7. Weird how it is that I always assumed mountain bikers to be tough, go-anywhere anytime kinda adventurers... I bet all the roadies will pitch up
  8. I ride 170mm... I noticed no difference in power... In Fact the jury is still out on this in the scientific testing community.... lots in google that go either way
  9. haha... where you been hiding? I thought you did the "ignore" function... not working out for you eh? Still... there is not fact in your little tirade... again you missed out the salient points... but I have come to expect that from you guys... Go Lance Go!!! :clap:
  10. Well Technically... he did... until its proven otherwise... he is still clean in my view! You guys are media ducklings... following the hype in a nice little row... believing all the twists and turns.... thats cool!... you make my day entertaining... thanx
  11. @Luck Luke: Seriously dude... if you spent as much of your efforts training as you do finding reasons to doubt that this man has done more for cycling, sport, well-being, cancer and motivation in general than you and - i am big enough to say - myself... you would be able to ride the tour de france and win it drug-free... and that would be an awesome statement to the world... c'mon... I know you have it you!
  12. I am willing to do a service to all of you who want to take up your justifiable right to boycott the suggested companies... I will accept these nasty goods that have been defiled by a "no contest"... Put your actions to more than your keyboard... selling these goods makes you just as culpable as the companies you wish to bring down... so by giving them to me... I will be able to ease your conscience... and give you the chance to show that you are true to your word... What can I say... I am just a nice guy!
  13. Dude I am willing to take a bet that this bloke is not in anyway a crusader for rights other than his own
  14. I am confounded by your ignorance of the cycle of democracy... I will not be the one to educate you... in fact I like to see you make an ass of yourself. but then for a ring-leader... I guess you like totalitarianism...
  15. again with opionions.. tut...tut...
  16. I will continue to support Lance Armstrong... If a business supports him... I will support them too - if I need any of their goods... That idiot with the first article missed the point completely... governments control corporate... and if they dont... VOTE!!! The big corporate is not the enemy... its unfounded statements from idiots!
  17. I do not think i am lance!
  18. That was seriously epic! well deserved and long time comming! Dont like rodregues-however you spell it! I never watched the all the stages...but never saw roddi do anthing but follow and take advantage...eeergh! Even Froome took control more than roddi... Viva el fillet :-)
  19. wow.... when I started cycling I was k@k as poop! slow... not much stamina... but I tried like hell to race all the races I entered... everything is temporary! even when you are strong you have k@k days... now things are a little different... for me now to expect a "weaker" rider for whatever reason - including alien abductions - who is front of me to stop on a steep incline and then start after I have passed them... is asking a bit much... I know how difficult it is... What happened to real etiquette! Its a race yes... but part of a race is that you are racing against other people... not other obstacles! If someone is in front of you... its their line! suck it up... find a way around and stop bitching like a girl! ..if they find it in their "space" to move over for you... that is a friendly gesture.. not expected.. appreciate it. AND SAY THANK YOU!
  20. Not so! I run the cheapest, nastiest ralphs as tubeless and i have never had a problem... However i run them on american classics...
  21. Yipeeee! I got my glasses now... and I had just transferred the money @ 9am... 2 hours after! Super awesome
  22. Mechanical doping should be illegal
  23. Cycling only gets into the news if there is a probability of doping...
