i race with a selle italia flite on my road bike and now my mountain bike as well it really all depends on you in the end i know a lot of people that use ariones on both bikes so give it a try (unless it is the one with the carbon rails) and if you want to get rid of the gobi i might have a buyer for you as well!!!

thats me in the white FiT kit and dobbyson in the black 10/2 kit with our helmets on backwards!!!!!

LOOK is the way to go no questions!!!

thanks for the pic's pantani i now realise which way my helmet should be on

hahahahahaha nice first post welcome to the hub and good luck with the topic Epoh i will take two cokes and two packets of popcorn i think this will be fun!!!!!!

i was chatting to Geoff and he says everything will be rideable by the end of january so looks like we should be able to have some fun in that area prety soon but when we were there it also looked like they were geting ready to put up the sign boards asap so maybe even on saturday that side will be able to be ridden i really hope so!!!! anyways chat soon gonna hit the sack now cheers dude

cool sounds like a plan dobbyson and i went to the other side of the highway... but it was hectic muddy and we were not too sure where the trails were so just did a loop of the ones we saw and i was impressed they were more logwood style with loads of rolling tight turns and some pretty decent single track looks vey promising for the future i really cant wait

little ben you are quite the beast on the bike hey wish i was as lean as you hahaha anyways please send my regards to your dad and remember to take him some proper food that hospital junk is just K@K oh ya if you want we must organise a ride sometime would be good to ride with you seeing as you will give me a good workout!!!

Thank you Andrew and Ali was a great ride Dobbyson and i enjoyed every minute of it trails are still very new so they can only get better Big ben hope you are not too badly hurt Sonic hope your ego is not too badly bruised and hope the wounds heal quick was great meeting you hog and i am very impressed with your new toy it looks better in real life other than that sorry for not introducing myself to everyone i was like a very excited kid in a candy store i just wanted to ride ride ride hehe P.S. i was the only crazy guy wearing white with FiT branding on my kit!!!!! hope everyone had as much fun as i did and chat soon

nice one now all i need to do is identify the bike to introduce myself tomorrow!!! nice ride HOG

big ben you can follow me through from kempton park tomorrow if you want??

? Some say that the step between 52 and 34 is too big and that you will have problems shifting up and down. Interested to hear if it shifts ok. ? ? <P =Msonormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN style="FONT-SIZE: 9pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-ansi-: EN">No problems thus far' date=' the front derailleur was moved?slightly higher.<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p></SPAN> <P =Msonormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN style="FONT-SIZE: 9pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-ansi-: EN">Down not really a concern cause the chain just drops down.<o:p></o:p></SPAN> <P =Msonormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN style="FONT-SIZE: 9pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; mso-ansi-: EN">Up - just make sure you don?t over shift, like doing half a shift, forgetting you have done so and then doing a full shift.

i will be there seeing as it is my day off woohoo

sweet stuff sounds like brilliant plan!!!!! good night dude i gonna go sleep

i met that guy yesterday aswell really good guy!!!!!

ok seeing as i dont drink it will have to be a fanta grape and maybe we should just meet for a coffe shop ride a nice big choc chip mugg and bean muffin never goes a miss!!!!

if you were closer i would give you mine i havent used mine in ages since i started using the cable tie method if you worried about the ties scratching your frame just use some insulation tape on it before tying it down!!!

well do a naked lap with holy roller at 24 and you should be forgiven!!!!!!!!!!!

ah no ways then you gonna miss out on my 21st dude thats not cool

happy happy Bob Ian well done on that corner that was the one sonic and i were chatting about yesterday a lot!!!

sorry rad already sold i will clear my inbox now i sorry again hope your legs are noit too sore to join us this sunday at cradle to cave????

this whole thread is such a joke hahahahaha i mean capri if you have an issue and want to punch someones lights out you should want to punch my lights out my bike is the best bike in the world just because i paid for it myself!!!!!! another example about working hard for what you have, my best friend owns 5 bikes well over the R60 000 price bracket and you know what yesterday was the first time in two years he has beaten me in the 94.7 this year is the first year my bike has had proper wheels with sealed bearings but do you see me being envious or Jealous????? Nope you should have heard me screaming and jumping for joy to hear that my buddy had stuck with the bunch till after the krugersdorp highway that is a major achievement for anybody in the elite bunch I see you as one of those guys that when on the bike you are very angry with things and when you dont get your way or you have a bad ride you come up with k@k excuses and end up blaming your bike GET OVER IT DUDE LIFE GOES ON and as i said earlier in the thread if you really want one of those desirable bikes then get off your ass and go train and all that anger confusion and Hate will go away i promise you!!!!

I was the dude that videoed you three when you were riding up the hill towards the krugersdorp highway great job boys i am very impressed and humbled!!!! the video's will be up on facebook tomorrow i will post the link on the thread for everyone who wants to see!!

ok sorry i am late havent read the whole thread!!! capri you know what sickens me????? i ride a 9.5 kg bianchi by far not the lightest bike in the peleton but on my day i can ride away from most people on it life goes on it doesnt matter about what bike you ride or what you wear its about how you ride it and what you do on the bike if you have an issue with people that ride bikes more expensive than yours then get off the hub go train and work out a plan to get sponsored for a nice expensive bike!!!
