  1. I wasn't there but glad to hear you are ok and even better to hear how everybody pitched in to help a fellow rider in distress.
  2. Damn nice site. Well done and definitely a niche in the market. Good prices also.
  3. Very bad photoshop. First clue. Orange lights.
  4. Put him in the tree next to the trail.
  5. My bike took me to rescue this little guy from being flattened on a trail. https://fbcdn-sphoto...719597458_n.jpg
  6. Ignore the white stem. Due to be redone soon in umm.... black. 2004 Fuji Diamond Pro
  7. Smoked my last cigarette at 8:30 this morning. I feel fine at the moment. No strange cravings to be honest. I did prepare myself mentally for the past two weeks. Every single cig I smoked I told myself how *** it tastes etc. Also did the audiobook version of Allan Carr's Easy way to quit. Understanding addiction is the first step to recovering from it. Seems to be working quite well.
  8. Any suggestions on good pads? I recently went back to flats with some gnarly spikes and id hate to rip my legs again. Back in the day i slipped off a set of beartraps and ripped my right shin pretty much from ankle to knee. Not a pretty sight. The shin bone still feels dented and the scar tissue is super thin.
  9. Hi all. What would a set of Ritchey Rizer Severe Condition handlebars be worth secondhand. 30mm rise and 620mm length I think. Also a matching 120mm stem 0deg rise I think. Both parts used for less than 1000km on an XC dual suspension bike.
  10. Yip. Those forks stick out like a sore thumb. Surely if you own a bike like that you know what kit is on it?

  13. Will be there tomorrow. Time to stop playing around and start training again. Black Fuji Diamond and a sand colour Merida
  14. This deserves a big mention http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuXrItGbR0o&feature=related INSANE skill
  15. I normally use a little bit of sunlight liquid under the grip to get it to slip off. Use a syringe from the pharmacy to squirt it in. Afterwards just rinse it out and let it dry. As for cutting the bars... Not sure, never cut a carbon bar before. I guess a hacksaw with a very fine blade should be ok but don't take my advice on that.
  16. Any dips or bumps on the trail should see the rear work a bit. 75% compression is more than fine. As long as you don't bottom out the shock it should be fine.
  17. Still open? I need some stuff. Will be about R500 +-. Im in Fourways/Randburg.
  18. Great... Now all of the youufff leeeg will want bikes. Free bikes for all. Even if you have to go and take one yourself. Nationalization of bikes FTL!
  19. No problem at all. Ive done a lot of automotive covering with car audio installs. The theory should be the same. Just need to get to Bloem to get what is left of my Flite Ti. It got bashed pretty bad with downhill and trials.
  20. Niconda, ek gaan binnekort 'n out Selle Italia Flite Titanium self oortrek. Het al baie vinyl werk gedoen maar nog nooit gedink om 'n saal te doen nie. Sal laat weet of dit suksesvol was dan kan ek dalk help.
  21. Thanks Patches The susser is actually my Fuji XC bike with the seat dropped. Might see if my old Wheeler 15" is still at my folk's place. Just needs a few good parts to get it back to its former glory. Was a slalom/trails bike when I still raced.
  22. Gustav did you come right with the Scott? Im in the same boat as you looking for something to play with. The full susser just doesnt jump well at all Anybody else selling? Looking to spend up to R3500.
  23. Thanks again. I have the best partner in the world to ride with. My wife.
