Hi everyone It's been a few years since i was last on here. Rode a little less and did a bit more trail running. I need to build this up for my wife Frame has been sitting in garage roof for 5plus years. I was supposed to be SS project but after my boy was born she snapped here previous frame and then we never got to have another bike. Plant is to build this as light as possible She will probably ride it for a year and then my son will take it over if we up grade. He is getting the school mtb now so soon will be racing flatout... 9years old and for now he is still riding xc with his BmX Currenlty i have top end carbon ceank Enve seatpost American clasic rims ..brand new Please help with ideas for a fork..what ideas ..650 is scarce and expensive new and recon not more 110mm travel otherwise bike wont ride that well..what do you guys recon Xt shimano breaks should be good enough? Not to sure about groupset Eagle pretty heavy..am sure i can find a second hand set somewhere at not too bad price Please help me with ideas gow to build this

Rode a Rapide rigid before the niner for about year and it was also a great fork

Been riding a niner rigid hard for a few years. Awesome for and goes really well on my SIR 9. Will never sell this combo as i have had some awesome wins and seedings on it

spinners or any artificial are great, you can always change the hooks to singles

ahhhh,, was an interesting topic till someone said vegan..

Daai manne vang mooi visse.

Prices?

Having done a few Attas this was the one to humble me! Having a sub 7 in my head and knowing it was wet i thought it might be my day. started in B Got a flat at 9km, took 2 tyres and 2 bombs with me..... min het ek geweet wat voorle tried to bomb te tyre, that where i broke the inner in the actau valva, a mate stopped and helped me, we spend a long time here, a rider stops and give me a valve, eventually 2 bombs later and a new valve and im on my way, Now its to pass the masses because im right at the back, my aim was to obviously start in the front and ride constant ,, but now it was yo-yo riding trying to pas. I must say guys were great , i asked nicely and they would give way,, during the race guys would be great making space, only one D^*6 who chirped something like-well you obviously started in the wrong batch so im riding and my seatpost that i replaced in the week come loose ..stop for that and fix it,,my new valve also leaks now,, stop again,bomb the leak,, still leaks and put a tube in with a bomb from a rider Tyre pressure is a bit low but i dont have more gas, on the main decent after King of the mountain i snakebite the flattish tyre., stop new and last tube, bomb from a fellow rider and of i go, my biocentric bb somehow come loose now and my chain is slack, i would have another 7 stops to get my chain back on, the rest of the ride was good Had some nice chats along the way. walked way too much this year but i knew my race and my time was over at 9km just want to sat thanks for the , 6guys who gave me bombs and the oke who gave me a valve without you it wouldnt be possible to finish my 6th Atta I would like to buy you guys a beer at a future event so plz get in touch with me Some pics of my support along the way and my circus dog

looks like it is

Seeding is you will end up pushing and not riding the climbs and that will cost you plenty of time

The above person has done 5 Attas but seeding seem to be getting worse every year. As for myself, Have always done Atta times of 6:30 to 8hours This year i have ridden Knysna mtb in a good time, Karoo 2 C in sub 4 and im still in D

*** lelike medaljes bir do groot race

maybe its a good thing

13hours ,,30mins?

decided to go 34x18 on Friday, It was def the right gear ratio. Had a blast , well done to the other okes

its going to be 34x20 Thanks guys

Might try the 32x19 We got lost of climbimg here..a average ride off 40km wil give you about 500 to 700m of climbimg I raced Attakwas on 34x20 maybe i must just ride more????

Morning guys i currently ride 34x20 but its a bit hard on climbs like Montagu Would a 32x18 be any better- and how does 32x18 compare to 34x20 Im playing around to get the right ratio for Karoo to coast. thx

Lekker verjaar Stuka 9 jaar vandag

The rest of the family. Stuka my fishing partner. Alska my imported bitch from Slovenia. Giga our oldest bitch in the house. Last pic is of Rockey(RIP) rescue dog but there will never be another Rottie like him.

Boris the Great. Solid as a rock..we can take him.anywhere with us no worries. His favourite place is definitely Beans about Coffee.

Best is to get one of those stainless cages that we use when we show. 4 weeks in there with breaks and night times normal. Being through this 2 times. The quiter you keep thrm.the better recovery they will have.

People told us years ago we will never be able to have big doges and a nice garden. So we made it a challenge. To be honest lots and lots of training and its never stops. They have this habit of eating the grass..not due to worms or anything like that so sometimes one of them will get carried away and destroy a patch. Unless they smell a mole ...dans daar groot *** en n groot gat. I have the wire there so they know its their boundary. Its gets switchen on when i see one off them has been in the bed.. They brake too many small plants when they walk and lay down in the shade. Back flower beds are open and thats where my young one likes to eat strawberries
