  1. Thanks for the replies guys

     

    Its not learning to do it myself that scares me im quite passionate about the sport and quite frankly i have moved from being annoyed with lego to be annoyed with getting MTB components on right

     

    It is the adjustments im scared of i always think that the adjustment is not to its best because im the one who did it

     

    thanks for the you tube video bro makes sense

  2. So i decide to go ride street to practice some skills at night cause i work and all ..

     

    I Ride 50 meters out and bam one of the links on the chain f... out god knows why making the rear Derailleur and drop out hook onto the spokes subsequently bending the 2 components (deraileur/drop out).

     

    So i presumed it cant be that bad cost wise, bend here and there.

     

    Today i get the call R1060 for Derailleur and the drop out with labor ,

     

    Look on a site the same Derailleur cost R500 but here is the issue don't have anyone to help out for FIX

     

    Anyone keen on making a buck on the side when i **** up and cant fix myself.

  3. please don't wear those dorky full face helmets. it looks so stoopid.

     

     

    Oh and seriously?????

     

    NOW THAT SHOULD BE LIKE A BAN FROM THE HUB !!!!!

     

    Dorky which is your opinion and to my years of riding the only one regardless dorky is cooler than disfigured

  4. Jeez

     

    everyone has been rather busy in the 5 hours i was not on the Hub.

     

    It saddens me to see that people argue when a equally shared passion is at cause true that the arguments are at times justifiable and that xc and DH is completely different but at the end its all about owning set of wheels and sharing the passion (apologies to the unicycles in your case a wheel)

     

    To come back to the filming story I think in most cases DH riders ride for themselves beyond anything else so modesty i think is usually to the rendez vous ,

     

    But with all this i still dont know who is coming which suck's cause promised the man i would let him know how many are pulling through and i realize sunday is shuttle day but the tokai filming is only from 10-12/13pm so it's worth it

  5. WHERE= Tokai

    DAY= Saturday 13th

    TIME= 10.00am

    WHY= You Tube footage(go pro sa)

    WHO= Good - semi skilled DH Riders

     

    Coming???

     

    Theaxt@gmail.com for more details

     

     

    NOTE : This is for fun, not for money or anything else so if you keen to demonstrate your skills pull through.

    Sounds like you have some cool filming gear well Im thinking of putting a post on the hub (saying on this date we going to do some footage you got some skill bring it to the track I have friends + myself that will definitely be keen to do a film half day so Saturday or Sunday 9.00 am till 12.00pm meet at tokai go up and get some video footage in ,some jumps ,little explanation of the forest etc.. but i am open to times ,dates and suggestions just want to have a rad time and put the cool stunts on the net and get people to acknowledge tokai is a really cool track, Let me know what your thoughts are and when we could do some thing like this.

  8. Yip but if the product was in the banner at that price they were probably just intending to do there indirect marketing and it worked cause you all shocked about it. quick tip for e-commerce sites at the top when entering or login or anything like that there is a lock at the top click on it and see if it a approved site , that will give you certitude that you dealing with legit people and also when people get ripped of they always make a point by telling as many people as possible so Google it and check out the forums.

     

    adios

  9. Ahh i get so jealous when i hear people discussing how they managed to ride during the week with a

    9-5 job during the week including traffic (cause that does become part of the daily working hours)

    I get home and its 7.00pm and to late to go Ride even though im 10 Minutes away from Tokai forest.

     

    PS anyone keen on rounding up DH riders for a fun day at Tokai ??

  10. Come on sunday morning and help us build the new track. 8.30 at the gate. Bring a spade and a good attitude and you will be making friends ( and trails) all day

     

     

    SOUNDS GOOD.. question though every Sunday or just this one?

     

    My birthday is Sunday so i will be going away but any other Sunday Im super keen let me know

     

    sweet...

  11. Hey man,

     

    your best bet is just to get out there and ride. You'll find like minded riders.. they're out there!

     

     

    for sure..

     

    But its always cool to create a friendship especially on the way up ;)

     

    So over and above just meeting random downhill riders who lets face it dont have much time to stop greet,meet,talk and carry on

     

    if you would like to be part of a group effort

     

    let me know

  12. Hey

     

    so my name is jullz , I use to be rather heavy in DH and stopped riding for approx 4-5 years (Bike got stolen = Heart got broken + Injury)

     

    But Im back and with even better gear ..every Saturday some buddies and I ride up Tokai and would like to know if there are any fellow downhill riders that are looking to have auwsome time every saturday morning and join us on our new routine ..

     

    Let me know!! or email me theaxt@gmail.com

     

    (Preferably DH rider or or semi skilled free rider)
