  1. Sounds Great! Also near and around my area. Bonus!
  2. I got the ZTR Arch for my SS because I knew the ride would be rough and needed a rim which could withstand the punishment. hey have not let me down yet. bought them as a wheel set from Buycycle.co.za
  3. The fork is a Momsen FR29.
  4. 8K, that strange... Got a quote from them last year for the 3 bike euroride which was R6200.
  5. Tron Light Cycle! Me Likey!
  6. At least it minimizes the probability of any technical issues.
  7. Apparently Noakes is folling the New Atkins Diets which says that you have to cut out most of your carbs for the first two weeks and then slowly start introducing them in small amongs. The idea is to find out to which cards you body adversly reacts and which it doesnt. Nobody tells us that foods (like medication) have side effects. These may not be serve, however they may cause something like weight gain. So, in this way everyone can develope a personalised eating plan with the correct and correct amount of carbs for them. Been doing this for the last three weeks and it is working. Substituning cream for milk in coffee, eat loads of good fats etc.
  8. Cyclesure Tel: 0861 292 537. Very competive prices and cover for almost anything (including brakage during races)!
  9. L-Glutamine promotes growth hormone.Was taking it last year for about 5 weeks. Only noticed that my hair started growing thick and fast. Unfortunately also startinggettingnheadaches from it, so had to stop.
  10. They said it should be on www.route69mtb.co.za soon, possibly by tomorrow.
  11. Tomorrows race is at the Voorttrekker Monument. Don't under estimate it if you are doing the 50KM! In previous race they have taken us right up to the tower on the first lap. Not sure however if the route for the USN race is the same.
  12. Check your cleet positions! Used to suffer from major cramps until they were corrected.
  13. Just finished building this.
  14. Are the dates for the Pietermaritzburg stage correct. I thought they were moving to September/October this year?
  15. You mean the female talent that usually makes guy attemp an obsticle which he would not normally do!!
  16. Someone mentioned an excellent spot somewhere in the cradle area where I can do some good long continuous MTB climbs. It was apparently a public dirt road with more than 4 KM climb. I cant remember anything more that that. Could someone assist?
  17. I also say this is a scam. For future reference Paypal does provide buyer and seller insurance. So if a transaction goes wrong, Paypal can repay you the money. Its part ofthe service they offer. Same goes for ebay.
  18. I'll definety be there! Looks like it will be around September/October 2012. At the Vlei 24 hour this weekend, Wendell said that they had put in a bid to host and that they would be expecting 1000 riders.
  19. How are the commutes going in the Northern subs? I am thinking about commuting from Weltevreden Park to New Road in Mirand. It's about 30km each way, also on a single speed! Will ride mostly along Witkoppen Road, then turn left onto Main Road and travel all the way up to crowthorn and then on to New Road to my destination.
  20. This could have occurred if there were underlying cracks in the tube material before it was bent into the shape required for the frame i.e. material defects. Good news is that it can be repaired. There is a company in Kempton Park, Johannesburg who do very neat Titanium welding. The weld could then be smoothed over and you wont even notice the difference. Maybe look at that option.
  21. Cool! Thanks Stretch!
  22. Where is the best place locally (Johannesburg) to buy single speed components and rigid shocks?
