  4. not the best picture of my kit but some of you will remember this picture from a few months ago!!!!

  13. i weigh 64 and i ride my tires at 2 bars i am on tubeless so that helps my shock i do pump to a harder 140 psi though i find the 120psi reccomended is just too soft on some technical descents
  14. scooterza are you also going to frown upon andrew mclean who rides into cycle lab on his volcan with orange crocs on his feet because he doesnt look like a cyclist at that point??????
  15. look for the older Lx type brakes or older XT with the resivoir (sp) that is parrallell to your bars they are still the best shimano brakes ever made
  16. mallo those are guys that are working hard for thier bikes and that you see at races (except cyclenuts security guards well not yet anyways) the thing that the other guys are trying to say is that when you ride past diepsloot you see shacks and right next to it in the little afdakkie is a BMW Z3 or an audi A6 the point of my post is i can agree with what everyone has to say but when driving down corlet drive on a saturday afternoon on my way through to my grandmothers place i see a guy riding an ultegra equipped bike and some kkkkksriums rolling down the road while wearing his slops and his jean pant rolled to his knee it looks very suspicious because not only is he riding like he learnt how to ride yesterday but he also looks waaaaaaaaaaay too small for the bike!!!!!
  17. try both ways each person is different and the only way to find a winning formula is to try every possible way good luck
  18. i would have to do it in slow motion then this half an hour thing is like hectic fast hey remember turtles are slow
  19. then it is longer those tubes get in the way
  20. thats why i have two sets of wheels but if you dont have two sets of wheels take two sets of tires it takes me less than half an hour to change both tires if they are tubeless
  21. Right................. The kenda small block eights are out then! larger Nobs then? Bontrager mud X you wont be sorry
