  1. Regardless of what everyone thinks is right or wrong of skipping a red light, one thing is for sure the brands displayed on your kit as you fly through a red robot with your pluck yew finger in the air, is getting some rave reviews from grumpy motorists. I say great marketing, or maybe not.........
  2. Last year it was -5 deg when we got up, 3 is going to be warm
  3. The lead motorbike fell off the floating bridge, quite spectacularly, nice event
  4. bought 2 of these http://www.aliexpress.com/item/T6-Bicycle-Light-HeadLight-1800-Lumens-3-Mode-Waterproof-Bike-Front-Light-LED-HeadLamp-With-8/1560711701.html R500 for both, works like a charm
  5. i am in the wrong business.........
  6. How do I get 60 to 70kms at Van Galens? I know that getting to the greek church and back gets me around 40km. I tried finding concrete road i while back but got myself lost, it seems i am missing something towards the cabbage farm
  7. Just entered, then looked at the profile Clarens will be good training.....
  8. tried to enter today but no early bird discount, so i entered the Monster instead
  9. depends what else we have on, but we try get one ride in on either Sat or Sun,
  10. we get 800m in 65kms riding from Rooihuiskraal to Groenkloof and back. 90% dirt as well.
  11. or order from evans http://www.evanscycles.com/products/bontrager/standard-24-x-1-inner-tube-presta-valve-ec037895
  12. I always found them for my 26er http://www.amazon.com/Q-Tubes-32mm-PRESTA-Valve-ETRTO/dp/B001CNE7HG
  13. For 26 inch cut a 24 inch tube down the center, (butterfly it so to speak), use that as your tape and valve. Once the tire is inflated cut the excess tube off with a Stanley knife. For 29er use a 26 inch tube. Easy cheap and no k@k with valves. Tube and valve cost R50 per wheel.
  14. b Been riding them for 5 months 6000kms, rocks, jumps, mud, no problems at all. We built wheels with ebay spokes, novatec hubs, and R250 rims, which have been bullet proof. Well worth the money spent
  15. Look at onone.co.uk. or evans and ebay
  16. I bought Manitou Tower Pro Forks from CRC for R3300 in Jan. They are just as good as the Rockshock reba on my 26er. Just bought a steerer reducing kit as well
  17. Is there not an alliexpress store? I bought 2 flyii 202 frames from Carbon Matt store on alliexpress frames where R3500 each, including shipping
  18. I will sell you an unbranded copy at 1/2 price, who wants one
  19. i would check out https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/125808-chinese-carbon-thread/ and slowly build something nice
  20. Built one up already, but not branded, my own carbon chinablack for under R10k
  21. found a china factory, complete bike for R25k painted http://hengliu.en.alibaba.com/product/1695927968-218894541/chinese_carbon_bike_road_carbon_full_bike_for_sale.html
  22. just saw this, claimed 1.2kgs http://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Newest-Carbon-MTB-Full-Suspension-Carbon_1219363194.html
  23. so glad I buy my chinablacks directly from china, no need to worry if the pricey logo sticker is real or not
  24. So would this be the wrong time to open a genuine fake, unbranded, real thing look-a-like, bike store
