  1. Well done Full Sus a great read! I picked mine up at Crown today!
  2. I bought a cheap light off eBay (R420) and after 4 months the driver blew, 18 months down the line the circuit on the battery shorted out! Thanks to Hannes at Extreme lights it is repaired and upgraded and now working perfectly!
  3. 24" + single speed = BMX

  5. 27,5" is the way to go! 29ers are on the way out! By the time you need to replace tyres, they will be a lot more affordable! You will get the best of both worlds! My opinion anyway!
  6. I remember bunny hopping over 8 bricks high on my BMX in the 80's. The highest I managed to bunny hop on my MTB was over one of those big steel barrels on its side! Bunny hopping on a hard tail or rigid fork bike is easier in my opinion!

  8. Yes an awesome time was had by all!

  10. Definitely Mavic Ksyriums, seen a couple of Dura Ace rear wheels with broken spokes!
  11. They grow up so fast, cherish those moments!
  12. I just bought both left and right hinges from my local optician, cost me R250 and they fitted hinges for me!
  13. I hope you did not have that crazy guy wearing white cycling shorts in your group! It was a disgusting sight,especially when it started raining! Friends should'nt let friends wear white cycling shorts!
  14. Definitely don't join a club then!
  15. I think it is coming to the point where lifetime bans should be issued to first time offenders, that should send a message to others considering doping!
  16. My condolences to the family! Please let us know how this happened7
  17. Many of the greats have been caught doping, even the great Eddy Merckx, he was given a 2nd chance! In fact as far as I know he was only punished with a time penalty! We all make mistakes in life and need 2nd chances to prove our real character! Food for thought!
  18. I ride a CR1 Pro and it is definitely the best bike I have owned, unfortunately does not fall into your budget brand new but I am sure you could pick one up second hand though!
  19. Hi guys anyone know how the guy is that took a tumble just past Simon's Town yesterday (Sunday 4/11/2012) He seemed to be in some pain when we stopped to offer assistance but left we left when a fire engine and Police arrived, saw at least 4 emergency vehicles heading that way and was hoping that the guy was alright?
  20. Very nice bike , pity you up in Gauteng! Any idea of transport costs to Cape Town?
  21. The "damning" evidence is all hearsay!
  22. It is really a tragedy that this guy lost his life! It just brings us closer to the fact that something has to be done so that all drivers/riders of all forms of transport can develop mutual respect for each other! I have ridden my bicycle in London and motorists respect other road users and vice versa! Playing the blame game is what happens in a situation like this where emotions are involved, the truth is that respect will only be given when it is earned. We as cyclists will almost always come off second best so we need to"make friends" with motorists to start making this better!
  23. Sell the 29er it is going to be outdated next year anyway! Lol
  24. A nice ride to Millers Point! Watched the sun rise over False Bay! Seems fish are running, lots of boats on their way out this morning!
