Haven't seen a speed king, how vast is the difference between the 2...? Heard the mntn kings roll nice and are decent in pretty much all conditions... What i'd really kill for is a set of nobby nick's with the red sidewalls that come on the '09 Cannondale Rize Carbon 1... You'll see why when the pix of my fiets go up tomorrow...

I have a brand new set of ignitors lying in my garage that i rode with only once for 50 kays, they're 2.35's though, gimme 300 bux for both... On the topic at hand, i love my small block eights in our current dryish winter conditions, but crap in summer in the mud, in which case my nevegals rock, but yup, *** rolling resistance. Gonna give tubeless takkies on my new XC steed a try, Conti mountain kings, apparently they're excellent tyres. Anybody seen the price of schwalbe tyres lately...? Set of ralphs is gonna set you back like 800 S.A. rondts... Crazy...

AAh yes, The Thugster, nice meeting another hubber in person.

I use the gold Rock'n'Roll and it too washes off easily with kleen green, but investing in and using a hundred buck Barberi chain scrubber gives me that little bit extra piece of mind... K no more hijacking from me...

SHOCK HORROR...!!! tut tut tut SP. You've learned the wrong lesson... Nothing wrong with White Lightning, you should be washing your bike after every ride and scrubbing your chain clean with a chain cleaner and biodegradable de-greaser after every ride and then re-lubing it when it's dry before every ride. Squirting lube on a dirty gunky chain is just asking for chain suck...

Oke in the middle doesn't seem too keen on it either...

I'm battling to distinguish between the two and which one i love more...

It's in MARITZBURRAH...!

Just two more sleeps till my new girlfriend comes home, stay tuned for the pix... MTBaaisikilist2008-07-12 06:33:21

It's still under construction, but will be where main road crosses over the highway, on either side of the road with a tunnel linking the 2 sides. The aussie reckons some of it will be ridable by the end of august, cant wait...

Are those wheels available locally...? And did you have them powdercoated white or do they come in that finish...? Really want white wheels for my new bike...

You can have the rims anodised, or powdercoated if you dont mind a lil extra weight. Ally spokes can also be anodised, so can the nipples and hubs i guess...

You can still buy cruisers like that brand new...

DUDE...! You must never hit a woman...! Rather kick them... I rate you shoulda run him over, and if he was wearing lycra, reversed over him n then hit him again...

Dude didn't u say u were putting ZTR olimpics on it...? What wheels are those...?

And the dude at the front in the 4th pic looks velly velly fast...

WAIDAMINNIT...! Where'd u get 79 from...?

You cant use v-brakes on a rim that doesn't have a proper braking surface, ie disk specific rims... Well i spose you could, but you shouldn't...

Uuuh, the new Blur LT has a carbon linkage broo...

Yeah the 4.2's are what i want but they'll apparently only have white ones available in a few more weeks. Which ones are you talking about n where've u seen em...?

Almost ready to start my light weight XC build, got all my parts ready except the wheels... I simply cant have any other colour wheels on this bike but white... So do any hubbers have any ideas on which manufacturer makes a light weight XC wheel in white...? Preferably a brand that has local agents for spares etc...

Tried rietvlei yet...?

They're just as *** here, but dirt cheap for the component spec u get them with in comparison to other brands with the same/similar spec level...

Yup... (post edited out of respect for tnt1, you saw her 1st dude)MTBaaisikilist2008-06-25 01:33:15

People i think we're all missing a very good journalistic point here. Did anyone notice that Arnold Geerdts has been off air for a gouple weeks now...? WOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...!!!!!!
