  1. Do you guys mtb on that section after krugersdorp hill (hillsnax) where the Silverstar Casino race was held last year? Is this private property?
  2. Ek het erens 'n quote gelees: "The intelligence of the monster, called a crowd, is calculated by the square root of the number of people in it". Dit is van toepassing op die idiote. Ek ag a klip meer intelligent as Julius Malema..Ek het meer respek vir 'n bosluis op 'n bees se hol vir die laer as 'n barbaar f*kker.
  3. F*ck JZ F*ck Julius Malema F*uck the ANCYL F*uck the government
  4. BMC's are awesome. I did the same and built up an Streetfire SSX, although my paintwork is not as flashy..enjoy it!
  5. very nice! Can't wait to see what they'll do to 105.... daggavis2009-04-02 02:28:16
  6. This is for you techies.. My question is regarding carbon cranksets..Are the crankarms entirely made from carbon or is it alu wrapped with carbon? The arm that is attached to the chainrings with the spider (5 arms), is the spider also entirely made from carbon? Trying to work out which (alu or carbon) is actually stronger.. Thx
  7. Used Squirt & white lightning but personally i think its crap. Only use Finishline dry lube mtb/road
  8. PS, can you give some feedback on how you find the Red groupo? Stunning bike!
  9. Weird, I wanted to qoute on your 1st post regarding 4 bolt stem designs..somehow pulled in Big H's quote..
  10. JB, does that mean i'm skating on thin ice here with the 2 bolt Easton EA70 stem I have put on my BMC? I don't think EA70 qualifies as weight weenie stuff but is it a proper, strong stem? I looked at the KCNC Fly Ride which was cheaper but somehow I didn't trust it and decided to go with easton... Regards
  11. Is this frame the same as the Schwinn Peloton Pro or the Schwinn Peloton LTD (High modulous) frame? Awesome bike! I seriously considered buying the same frame but since it is an economic recession I settled for a much cheaper BMC Streetfire SSX alu frame..maybe oneday i'll also ride a plastic bike and planet X is definately good value for money...
  12. Have you ever been zonked??
  13. Jealous? Nope...They are playing on uncle afbob's stoep. Traffic was hectic this morning and cars coming that short downhill hoerkj?nd vir hom all the way to the 4 way stop.. That section particular has no wide shoulder and they were blocking the cars. Lots of trucks who drive like maniacs. Please just be safe guys and always try and "think car". Not every motorist sitting behind you is a cyclist and as understanding as I am. I hope I never have to be the ou phoning your loved ones if you are run over.
  14. To the roadies riding just after 6am 3 abreast in the lefthand lane on Hendrik Potgieter just after the dip & turnoff to Fearherbrooke estate on your way to the N14 intersection............... WELL DONE YOU CHOPS!
  15. I agree with JB. JB, remember we had this same discussion when I collected my road wheels.. I used Continental Sportcontact 1.3's on the mtb and the wheels run so much smoother than nobblies on tar. Then I started to run out of gears due to the ratio of say 44/11 compared to a roadbike with 53/12 combination. I'm currently building up a roadbike slowly. The effect of lower weight with gearing suited much more for road riding and not torque required fo r mtb'ing will make you a lot faster. I did the Bakwena superclassic last year on the mtb with slicks and although this is flat and fast route I could just not keep up with the guys with similiar fitness levels on their roadbikes.
  16. I'm also looking for a pair of road shoes.. What's recommended up to 1000 Quid? Is the Olympic road shoe (R700) as good as the hurricane mtb shoe?
  17. I ordered my groupset from them in December, delivery took around 10 workdays before the Post Office courier delivered in my hands. Just remember to have the cash on you when you have to pay the courier the VAT, they don't phone you before hand to arrange a delivery time they just rock up at your place..
  18. eish i also have the es-30
  19. Laat my baie aan Belgie dink. Was daar vir vakansie 5 jaar terug oor kersfees en dit was awesome. Belge is baie vriendelik en omdat hulle flaams praat het ons goed oor die weg gekom... Ek mis daai land, miskien eendag kan ek gaan kuier in Nederland
  20. Thanks for the feedback. I heard somone say the Looks pedal body is too narrow and those with big feet will rub against the crank arms? Have anyone experienced this with the Look Keo Classics/Sprint?
  21. I have to decide between Look Keo Sprints or Ultegra 6600 pedals.. What do hubbers think I should go for, considering durability, performance etc? Thx!
  22. Too expensive! Northern Farm still better at R180 for 20 entries - 9 bucks a ride.
  23. True, neglible weight difference but R1,000 more..
  24. How will france feel if someone removed the chicken from their jerseys. Chicken = France..France = chicken (no pun intended) and its their whole history and pride..
  25. How the f*ck did a antelope, the sprinbuck devide the f*cking nation??? He must then stand trail and go to prison. But then all the animals printed on our beloved bank notes should be removed as well. If you discrimnate againts the springuck what about the lion, leopard etc..
