  1. incredible!
  2. Hell, my seeding is steadily slipping from A to becoming a B one one these days
  3. Never use them. They should just remove Water Points and give us a extra glass of coke at the finish.
  4. Makes no diffs at all./
  5. If any1 is interested, I've giving up on Track Cycling and want to sell my S-Works Langster featured in the pics. It's a Size 56. Only changed the seatpost and saddle. Open to offers but looking for around R7k
  6. I had my PowerTap SL replaced after the 1st one died after about 3 years, the new one is less than a year old I think and it's got "play" if I wiggle it from left to right. Some one suggested tightening of the cones will eliminate the problem and it did to some extend but now it's back to having a lot of play again, we talking about 2-3mm play to the left and the right. So, now I'd like to know who service the hubs, replace the bearings? Can the bearing be ordered and installed my my LBS. I've tried going on www.bikemax.com but the site is down.
  7. Don't do it if you are racing. I did that one season only finished 2/7 Races.
  8. Take a pic with the tyre on a digital scale Chris:P - Better yet, weigh like 10 of them and give us the Av weight.
  9. oH pLEASe, this must be a silly prank! I find it quite amusing !
  10. Also still running my XTR V's, I can't see a reason to spend extra cash on Disc's, I love the simplicity of the system, on the fly adjusting if needed ect. But I have ridden bikes with Disc's and the stopping power is amazing and less stress on the fingers / hands during long descents.
  11. Lilo's father almost did not make it to the finish, his only been cycling for a month of 3 now and it was his 3rd Mrb race, not sure if well get him to do another Mtb race after that:P - Like Auction Lamb says, it's not for the Av Joe Smoe doing 1 or 2 training rides a week.
  12. Me and Lilo did it. I did the "59km" and she did the "37km" Firstly I'll mention things you should Not change - The Marking on route was brilliant, more so the Locals at the turn off were very supportive, they all deserve a pat on the back, the one even helped push me up a little hill +1 there. Water Points, I did not stop at any but I should have, Lilo told me they had little chocolates already opened and ready to eat at some of the water points, good stuff! Technically I'd not change the route, I found the downhills rid-able at fast speeds so that's always nice after we spend hours climbing. What I did not like about the race or rather the info we received Re: Distance and Total Climbing was not accurate. The 59km was in fact closer to 63km and the 37km was just over 40km's - the total Ascent for the 63km was between 1600-1700m and the 40km was 1000m. The only thing I'll change about the race is the distance, spending almost 4hours on 60km mtb is to much.
  13. Oh, might also join now that Killarney is off tonight:P
  14. Do you guys think the "old" 970 Crankset blade prices will start dropping now?? I have 2 x 970 XTR Cranksets in need of new blades..
  15. I don't like getting my bike dirty so the less dirty bits the better. I don't mind if the ground is dry but if it's wet or has wet spots I'd rather not go that route

    Niner Air 9

    Nice!
  17. also got one...
  18. I felt really "pap" this morning during my ride so think I might have to skip this one...although it does look really nice out side.
  19. I only use like 5 gears combo's, they should make it less not more! Can save more weight that way or keep it the same weight and make it last longer:-D
  20. Thx, hy ry no gniks nie, gaan begin ry, ons skat n Medium frame mag dalk pas, hy is so 1.79m lank. Ons gaan vanaand na n 2nd hand bike kyk want hy virtaan nog nie hoekom alles so duur moet wees nie, die bug moet nog byt, maar as ons nie reg kom nie sal ons die naweek n draai daar by julle kom maak!!
  21. Hi Chris, Tania se pa is ook op soek na n Mtb, hy soek iets vir so R10k, in n medium HT, wat kan mens vir dit kry???
  22. Jy't goed gedoen NeverEnder om so lank by te hou, ek was self op my einde, gewoonlik ry ek op my eie vir baie langer, bly om te sien ons attractive meer League mannetjies, kan net beter oefening vir almal wees!
