As mentioned before, stock on the Supersix Gen 4 is a problem. Would also like to know the ride quality between Supersix Gen 3 and Gen 4, is it worth the upgrade? Cant fault the Supersix Gen 3...

As per previous comments, make sure you have the Mavic Exalith pads. Mine took a week or two to bed in before the squeal reduced. The "toe in" on the pads also helps. With the correct pads my Exalith has a slight whining noise when the brake is engaged and the speed approaches zero. Otherwise it is silent.

The Rhino climb is a challenge and will test you, but very rewarding. I have done this a couple of times. Another option is to go up and go down Black Rhino 2 instead of doing the full climb. Black Rhino 2 will be fun with a HT! lol 😁

Cool video! Bringing back some good memories… I did it in 2020. Excellent race! With all the climbs on Day 2 its hard to remember that you did so much downhill on Day 1… make sure you pack your climbing legs for both days. Oh yes, since 2020 its 5km longer to get to the Hell! @milky4130Hell&Back is a whole weekend before DC 🤣 whats the problem? 😁

Lots of options available: 1. Living Colour, between Yzerfontein and Darling, lots of single track and you do the entire Wolwefontein trails (day permit) 2. Khwa ttu Nature reserve, just outside Yzerfotein has some nice single track (day permit) 3. Darling, many options, gravel with plenty climbs, but you need to join a local who can show you the routes on the farms, unfortunately no markings etc... (free) I have also met some friendly local MTB riders at "Die Skuim" coffee shop who I joined... Perhaps that's also a good point to start if you keen to join a group.

Good deal on your Garmin Heart Rate Straps?

I have a set of DarkHorse 36/50 and so far they have served me well! They roll forever. The guys at DarkHorse (Irvin) pretty helpful as well.

Hi all, anyone know who has Maxxis Ardent Skinwall 2.25 x 29” in stock in Cape Town? Tried the usual shops but all out of stock...

FairCape Vrymansfontein: Was on the FairCape Vrymansfontein loop this morning from Adderley Road. Please ensure you have enough sealant as the entire section from the first bridge to the 2nd are full of THORNS.... I had plenty thorns in my wheels, two riders was stranded due to insufficient or poor quality sealant.

Bloody hell, I am twice a week on that road... What time did this happen? Glad you ok. Wish they get caught soon.

Had a run in with a big Cape Cobra yesterday on the new corridor at Conties (200m from the pump house gate). He was in the single track and fortunately we managed to stop about 3 meters from him. Took about 5min for him to move into a hole on the side of the track...Please be careful
