Think some people are to scared to move back to 26'ers, because then they have to admit they were wrong and spent a lot more on their bigger wheels than they should But I really dont care, just like posting pics:) Here is a pretty 29'er DH bike, when you have long downhill jeep sections in your downhill run. http://29ermountainbikereviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/mountain-bike-downhillspy-shots--intense-cycles-prototype-29er-downhill-mountain-bike-vujmvssn.jpg

Just to add some colour to the thread threads without pictures is no fun http://i.qkme.me/35njax.jpg http://cdn.memegenerator.net/instances/300x300/38670103.jpg http://i.qkme.me/3patap.jpg

If my bike was rolling at the age of 15, It was a good day Luckily I only had a choice between a 20" bmx and a 26" "custom jobbie"... and only one worked at a time, haha bigger wheels is not going to make you faster, maybe just give you more street cred to the scott-merida-spez sheep, lol

think somewhere on Hub is a discussion on this, but don't know if it was wiped out with the "Great Crash". Maybe do a search

Maybe I also have a few missing, haha, thanks for correction:) Atleast some F1 to keep me busy this sunday! Those European guys are ultra smooth, but are the as crazy as those British and their "colony", The american states of america. Think the Bear Claw still has something to prove, so def keeping eyes on his run!

This Sunday is rampage time (my favorite event to watch). Any predictions?

Why havent I heard of these local guys... and I live in Stellenbosch, so they close-by. Looks good. Faktory Bikes All Mountain bike: Our 27,5" wheeled, full suspension, 150mm travel, mountain bike, is light (2.22kgs or 4.9 pounds for the 18" medium frame), capable and modern. Accommodating all the latest standards, like a Tapered steerer to a 142 x 12mm rear axle to internal cable routing. Geometry, and wow, how do we like it... 67 degree head angle, 72.5 degree seat tube angle and seat stays at just 438mm(centre of bb to centre of hub).

Ragley, the other two brands are mainstream and everyone on every corner has one.

let me know when you ride, ill join up, although i push uphill, those ups kill me, it just has to look like an incline and im pushing, haha. I live 500m from the gate, so its my daily routine, Hit Eden, move over to g-spot, do few runs there and ride back home.

Kids don't need brakes , only reason why Disc wouldve been nice for me as kid was those buckles. but its summer now, so no wet weather for a while and by the time the winter is here again, he/she might be big enough for 26'er

Eden(Just across from G-spot)used to be good, with atleast 4 trails running top to bottom, but felling of trees makes it bit tough there at the moment. Had some nice Rockgardens on the old DH track after the patch-up Jonkers also long Singletrack and a DH haven't seen any roots or drops in G-spot though, the builder(singular) keeps it ultra smooth

Tell me about it, CRC becoming very expensive quickly, haha. But dont see it stopping until we are at R20 a pound:/

Carbine Updates for 2014: ISCG MOUNTS, MOLDED CARBON DIRECT-MOUNT FRONT DERAILLEUR, INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING FOR RS STEALTH DROPPER POST, 3 BUILD OPTIONS FOR COMPLETE BIKES BOLD, NEW GRAPHICS

I build my own, except for BB insertion and headset. Other than that, the rest goes fast. Most bike shops dont sell singlespeeds from the floor, but import an OnOne frame and let them build it, would still be an awesome build and you can just do the "Bling" yourself. eg. Saddle,Grips,Handlebars etc. My fishing (and visits to Sealine) has almost completely stopped since I started riding bike again. Fishing takes a whole weekend, while biking sorts me out in a morning or afternoon, without the fishead smell, haha Have A Gold Trini30 in my closet freshly spooled with PowerPro and replaced Carbotex washers for last season, but yet to see some Toothies again, haha

Do you want to design, build and weld the frame itself, or just adding the parts, part of building?

You know you must remove the brakes to be cool;)

See they've got there own thing going with reducer, @$70 no to bad I guess: http://www.cannondaleexperts.com/Cannondale-Reducer-Headset--SIHeadshok-to-1-18_p_304.html

If its a normal 1.5" to 1 1/8" steerer shock,its easy. I have reducer in my bike, nothing fancy about it, also not very expensive. Start from around R300 up to wherever expensive headsets, like ChrisKing go.

I had tubeless with shrader, not a single problem. Benefit, when you need to "bomb" them, you can just go to the garage and use their pumps, instead of getting an adapter or using expensive bomb I say, stick with schrader

nice to watch,thanks for upload. They seem a lot less wreckless than the normal roadies on the road, at least these guys are aware of traffic the whole time, which some people forget to do.

One of the nicest coloured frames I've seen, especially with brown saddle and gold

Completely possible... but the "Enduro" definition so wide, it includes bikes from a mere 100mm - 180mm+ travel, not to mention all the lockout and gear options available. These are really do-it all bikes, but some will be easier to pedal long distances than others. Eg. Jeff's 29'er trance

Damn, They got it, before the Scott 29'er giraffe crew got to take some awesome pics with it.
