  1. Hey, I saw a similar machine in a pub here!
  2. Notice anything here? News Thu 1 Apr 2010, 10:30 am BST News archive 500g barrier shattered by groundbreaking new frame By James Huang, technical editor
  3. Can you buy separate cassette sprockets? Never seen them.
  4. Puhlease! What a load of sentimental BS! You sound like one of those Hollywood couples that pledge their love and promise to be together forever and everyone is surprised when they bust up. We all know where this is going to end up dont we. In FOR SALE in under a year. Good luck and I look forward to your next build as well.
  5. Actually, some gliders do have engines and I was wondering if sidecars on motorbikes need to be on a specific side depending which side of the road you are on.
  6. Hey Elvin, cant comment on the stickers as I've only used my Park Tools ones on a mates bike and she converted to tubeless anyway but have you maybe checked the inside of your tyre for a thorn. The offending puncture causer is often left imbedded in the tyre and keeps repuncturing the tube. Just a thought. Hey Joe, where did you get that satellite dish mop? Could do with one.
  7. R700 excl Vat is not too bad. Reckon it must be better built than some of the others for sale here if it is used in mining. 6000lux is about 550 lumens? If its accurate its in the same ball park as the others and the wight is not too heavy.
  8. I wonder how much the charger is?
  9. Physical and emotional pain? What did you do? Swim?
  10. Nationalaaaaise Them!!!!!!!!! The beauty of the spruit is that its accessable at so many different points. From the top....Alberts Farm, Emmarentia, Parkhurst, Delta Park, Fratteli's, Blairgowrie, William Nicol, Field and Study, Bryanston, Riverside, Paulshof. It is moderately uphill from Paulshof up to Alberts Farm and you can throw in a few steeper climbs if you want. Nothing too hectic with a few obstacles here and there to test your skills. Much more accessible and less intimidating than Deer Park.
  11. Really nice pics. Would love to know the story behind the broken rear tri on that Yeti.
  12. Clever boy!
  13. Really doubt you can do that. You dont have much of a lever on the bolt itself. I reckon if you strengthen the hanger and put in a softer bolt all you will do is bend your derailleur in a mishap. My 2c.
  14. I've got an Oregon. I went for a 2.5 hour traiing course on how to use the unit and the software. Worth every cent. I wanted a real gps and not an Edge as I want to use it in the car as well and I really dont need the HR function on it. The larger screen is a bomus as well. Anyone know if you can convert a Google kmz file to gpx?
  15. Oregon 300.
  16. Do they have a MTB trail on that thing?
  17. My service charge is there in black and white on Jo'burg Powers 2009 tariff schedule. It applies to all 60a single phase users. Your rate per KWh is depenedent on your amount of usage.
  18. My meter gets read every month and yet I still get an estimated interim consumption charge. I have mailed Jo'burg connect with no response. Daylight robbery. What's the demand side management levy?
  19. I reckon grondpad has hit the nail on the head. Rietvlei might be up there but I cant say personally. I also dont think any piece could be complete without the Spruit and Northern Farm purely from an accessibilty and range point of view.
  20. Which mag?
  21. Milky, how does a cyclist crash into a car turning right? Trying to see how this can happen with the cyclist riding in a responsible manner but am at a loss to do so.

    Chains

    Pure chain breaks are very rare. You can twist a chain during an incorrect gear change either bending it or forcing it to break. Chain breaks also occur when a chain has been incorrectly assembled. If you are unsure of what tool to get I would try and forget it at this late stage. Good skill to know but learn to do it properly. If you feel you need to get one get a quick link as well to join your chain. Get an old chain and practise a few times as well.
  23. Only VISA accepted at WC facilities.
