    Might be a bit of a chore getting it here, unless you're relocating to NZ / Aus....
  2. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    That's easy, It goes into the same place socks go when being washed.
  3. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    that was NOT a snap. Dog was surprised awake by something falling on its pillow, and reacted by growling, though quickly stopped when it saw what was up.

    take it in to get serviced and inspected. May have a 140mm air spring in it, even!

    Also adjusts the toe of the front wheels to aid in heat generation / moderation of the front tyres. That's teh primary function of the push / pull feature, from what I've seen.

    https://youtu.be/U_uKHNJLSQs These explain it quite nicely.
  7. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    Damn, I like that movie a lot. And yeah, agreed.
  8. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    The lead actor (whatever his name is) is bloody excellent. Perfect for the role.
  9. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    Filthy Westerner, thinking he can improve on OUR design! And then no mention of it whatsoever when it's implemented for the same reasons you did it in the first place.
  10. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    or just mail tomoutside as he's an engineer there.... and a hubber.
  11. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    Not at all what the OP is looking for
  12. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    PREACH!!!

    Honestly, if I were buying a new bike now I'd be hard pressed to look further than the Slade. Great pricing, solid geo and local design for the win. Given that it's a darn sight cheaper than replacing my current steed would be, and it's a bit of a looker to boot, it's among my top contenders should I ever be in the market.
  14. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    yeah, something that can take a hit, rather than wince and collapse when there's a root in the way...
  15. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    yeeeeah, he's got them right where he needs them.
  16. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    This.
  17. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    Yeah,I saw that. ????

    I reckon if they'd redone the brakes and given the bike a new coil, the straight up low down torque of that XR would have been excellent for the trail. But drums need to be set up properly to be effective. And that kid wasn't small!

    Your biggest limitation there will be budget. Hardly anything good in those ranges, unfortunately. Personally, Eliminator Grid for the front, all day long. It's grippy, reasonably fast-rolling and long lasting. BUT it'll be around R 800 or so, which is outside your budget. Won't be at all "too miuch tyre" for a 60k ride.

    no, back protection is not compulsory. Only compulsory item is a helmet, and that's a half-shell. The rest is "recommended"
  21. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    And days after the best looking and lightest e-bike launch, they're not really looking that svelte
  22. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    Off with his head!!! It's almost as if taking part is reward enough. LOL.
  23. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    flippin good effort, man. Well done! No feckin way I'd be able to do that.
  24. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem
    HAHAHAHAHA @velouria this is SO true! If you've never experienced a Meurant Botha race briefing, you are missing out. It's worth entering a Dirtopia event just for the race briefing.

    Jinne ***, no he must keep it.
