Fine. just make sure you have ample sealant.

The thorns are more for your legs and arms. Thoes tyres will be fine with the normal amount of slime. If Kenda Karma's and SB8's can do the Kalchal the crossmarks will have no problem.

Like the stiffness of the frame and they are bulletproof. have owned 2 myself. have riden the Mongoose but not the Team and was not really blown away. Nothing taken from Mongoose, they make good frames. GT is just different.

GT...........

Anyone

Manitou Minute MRD 100mm Fork Standard Need some more info on this fork with regards to reviews. Has or is anyone riding with this fork? Are they any good?

Kranswurm, Are the baggage transport trucks loaded the evening at the yacht club or morning at game? Thanks

trying to smoog for 2 hot waterbottles...........

Already entered, but sure someone will take you up on this.

This is by far the cheapest most well organized and sponsored stage race.

Gabs is 3h30 drive...........try share the driving costs.

Wish my neighbour was that good!

Ahhh.... Must have mixed the 2 at some point, and thought the urine was what stung....

They have that at the refreshment restaurants...

Oh Oh oh....... Pula's for beer.....

For the Kalchal take a plaster or 2 with you on the ride.....

Somewhat limited to it's target audience but ingenious non the less. Tip for non smokers. Glue a folded 2l coke bottle label on the inside as a gator.

Plenty!

Pop Lock, you push a lever to lock out then push a button to release. Push lock, you push a lever to lock out and push the lever again slightley further to release. both do the same job. oh. Pop lock has a little dial on the mount to adjust the lockout. Basically adjusts the tension of the cable. TNOSE_E2010-06-09 01:22:55

Nothing technical just a long roadside slog. Ave speed 24km/h distance 60km or 72km. Duration +/- 3h Anyone welcome to plod with, just let me know. Heading off at 6am

Get fork oil from any bike shop. R60 - R100 per L. Do not use brake fluid in your brakes unless specified on the resevoir! Unless you want your seals to turn to toffie!

The fork and Shock covers work well to protect and help reduce mud buildup. I use neoprene fork protectors when it's muddy. Dont really care what people think of them... Just don't leave them on. You must clean under them after every ride. http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=4761 TNOSE_E2010-05-17 07:38:20
