I have bought from CWC on several occasions, you can't beat their prices locally and shipment is always speedy. They are becoming SA's CRC.

They cover your bike for training and racing. In addition you get personal liability cover of a million Rand. During official events you get Death/Disability cover of R20,000.00 and Medical Expense Cover of R10,000.00

Rav X plastic cages - cheap, pretty, and they work. Also had the old type Specialized cages with no problems.

Mongoose, any day. Great value for money. Great bike.

They have a ton of clips of dumb-asses on bicycles doing their best to win a Darwin award!

Medals Schmedals. T-shirts for me. They should actually cost race organisers less money than medals because t-shirts give sponsors long term exposure, which they are willing to pay for.

This is why you shouldn't buy bikes from the china man: http://www.toxicjunction.com/get.asp?i=V4562

Very clever, Mr Splat.

Sharks let us down in the previous couple of matches, but that was a super exciting match on Saturday. There was a real "test match atmosphere". Go Bulls!Wallee2009-05-18 23:33:32

+10 points for Giant! Can't wait to see how the new Anthem compares to the old one.

Your bike is called Lightening?

So Williehond, did the Fortius keep you going through your winter?

I'm thinking of changing cellular networks just because that advert P!SSES ME OFF so much!

I Agree. It's a great frame, and Schwinn is good value for money. I definitely agree that you should start with an Alu frame, unless you have spare bucks lying around and are a sucker for the carbon look.

Talking of Gangsta: Gold Alligator cables, Token Skewers, Eggbeater 4ti's, Gold Ti bolt kit. All I am missing is the gold "grill"

Yesterday, I used the Amino Carb drink together with the Magenta Crazy Berry gel for the first time in a race. It really works for me. The gel bottle works brilliantly. No fussing for gel packets in your pocket, and trying to open them with one hand. No sticky packets left in your pocket. No mess, no fuss.

Thanks for the info morewoodkid. I will be waiting in line for one of those hardtails, I always wanted to own a Morewood!

How about "The bikes that downhill built, but XC perfected" http://cdn.content.sweetim.com/sim/cpie/emoticons/000202EC.gif

That definately looks like its cracked! the Oke talking crap Agreed

And that looks like a crack in the rear triangle!

Is that a single chainring on that bike?

Yes please!

I was hoping for a carbon frame, but if that is the same bike in the picture, then it is clearly not carbon.
