  1. Wow, got me excited remembering my first ride which was also my firs fall..it can only get easier and u better controlling your great bike.
  2. Hi joe I built a new Pyga one10 for about that with xt gruppo, archex wheels gobi saddle and fox fork. Decide on frame, buy from dealer get warrantee..shop on hub for New components..new xt group set was available for 6 etc..u will get a hand picked personalized great bike for 30. Yes there are times u may get the full packaged reduced by lbs, u won't need the 2014 models as often it's just a change in cosmetics get the outgoing model at reduced price. Cwc had 20% off all items on Saturday, had x1 giant carbon for 36 less discount will be within your budget, so shop around and u will find all u need for 30
  3. Hi I have saguaros on front and rear and they are amazingly strong relatively light very grippy..never had an issue an a mate has done rd rising on his while a friend had rralf..ralf wears so quickly it's really very costly tires if distanc is considered. Good luck my support for saguaro TNT.
  4. I had a similar experience..2 guys broke into my place ...all hell broke lose we were asleep at time..alarm triggered ...my neighbor helped me apprehend these conte in the process to contain them they became pretty badly bruised ..we bundled them into the boot and took them to the police to report the attempted burglary..i left there feeling proud that i prevented another person from experiencing a theft by Locking up this **** ..days later was charged with assault to do grievous bodily harm..a charge that carried a greater prison sentence than the burglary..not to mention me losing my job due to criminal record..lawyers fees expenses piled up and eventually we struck a deal ..I withdrew theft case them the assault case..our first world criminal justice system.
  5. Hectic dude I wish u find that piece ****
  6. Hi I've had maxxis cross mark and ardent lust combo...good strong durable but bit on heavy side I've had ralf non snakeskin..very quick light not very durable.. I've now got geax saguaro TNT ..this has to be the the best there is ...strong, quick light durable.. My recommendation..
  7. Hi I hav to agree to pain here..had u gone1 level up on the supply chain to the importer your request to swap may have some merits, but you're dealing with 2 retailers who in fact are in opposition for business albeit selling the same products...these stores were kind enough to check what the fault was if small enough to resolve for you then realising it required some electrical hardware suggested you return to store you purchased. .they would have been perfectly within their rights to send you packing the minute you walked as the item was not theirs. In my opinion you should thank them for great customer service not slate them so from me "a big up to Thule, going beyond the call of duty'
  8. Hi I feel ur pleasure I have recently moved to town and my bed's view is the block house ..needless to say its a pleasure getting onto the bike and riding vs the schlep of loading bike racks bikes etc..took me 50 min before to get onto the mountain..enjoy.
  9. You going to hurt yourself with that bike....no dude
  10. My wife works at Cosmo....needless to sayi enjoy visiting her at office lol
  11. My major weakness is the woollies fruit gums..im an absolute junkie..buy 3 packets at a time and on my way home finish a packet..not good I've been told ..but can't stop
  12. Hi Griffin A friend of mine did his argus on sarguaro and been riding with hem in mountain since then..I must say they are very strong tires..I think the 'TNT' stands for tar and trail. Google them I have a pyga which had on ikon and crossmark combonation..these are good tires but felt the geax to be lighter faster and more versatile. Would highly recommend..although I have heard hey are a bit diff to put on the converse also true which is good to know;-)
  13. Hi I have them on arch ex it wasnt so bad..very good tires..
  14. Hi geax saguaro TNT great tires handles rd nd dirt very well. Lightish..Rolls well and grips when needed..all round fantastic whel
  15. Nice of them tho technically if this is a manufacturing defect and th frame replaced irrespective of whether first owner or not with a limited time from sale.
  16. Hi buddy I believed we not only have to be concerned about thieves at tokai but tazer armed thieves as well.;-) Give Bernie my regards Nad
  17. Hi buddy saw pic and it looks eina sorry it happ..but based on wht u described I'm sure u also think about how much worse it could hv been, the scrapes and bruises could easily hv been a broken jawbone or in typical Cale town fashion missing front teeth, so u have much to be grateful...besides u can now claim for a new helmet Take care get well
  18. Hi Well done enjoy its a beautiful piece of equipment you have there..nothing as exciting as finally receiving your long awaited personalized new Pyga. Enjoy and please give us feedback on the first few rides and whether ur expectations were met. Cana
  19. Yes they are all you mentioned but you forgot to mention very expensive per cup. I have the saeco bean to cup and I have a great full body blend that costs R 40 for 250g bag which yield about 25- 30 cups. The equipment may cost more initially but running costs are a fraction of the nespresso coffe makers.
  20. Rip condolences to the family.
  21. Oh no this is becoming ridiculous Sorry buddy..
  22. Giant + collectors = moron ...forget about the oxy
  23. I'd go with black for everything else..even SRAM red black gruppo
  24. I guess that is a lesson learnt from my experience ..
  25. More vigor required..police were called and in typical as fashion it took about 30 min to respond..in this time we retrained the guys whenever they attempted to escape (imagine wht u would do if u caught a thief in your house he he) Police eventually arrived and my friend accompanied them to police station to give his statement and complete documents to ensure this would not fall thru cracks due to insufficient evidence or documents.. 2 weeks later h gets a call from the police station requesting him to report to a detective in connection with his citizens arrest..he reports to them confidently and proud thinking hey want to officially thank him or maybe offer a reward..to his surprise when he arrived there they arrested and charged him with assault to do grievous bodily harm..WTF This sentence was more serious than the common house breaking charge the guys were initially arrested..he had to get an attorney..go through the drama of finger prints..potential criminal record..hectic ***.. After a month of anguish for the family he agreed to drop the charges against the guys who broke into house if they did the same..Now is this justice Me I said they must prove I was there..so wasn't charged but felt crap for my buddy.. My question is simple and would like a legal opinion please..what are our rights in our ability to retaliate if our property's amazed or family is threatened ..who does this constitution work for..it doesn't appear to protect the hard working law abiding citizens.
