  1. Not yet, but have one hanging around at home
  2. That sucks about you AC, I've been off the bike for 8 weeks because of an sternoclavicular dislocation (other side of the collar bone). Doesn't sound nearly as bad as yours, but still can't ly for too long on that shoulder and wake up with a stiff neck most mornings. Hope it heals up fast. Depends on what you consider narrow the ISO width (i.e.bead width) is 19mm which is the same as a ZTR Arch (Not Arch EX). Also are/were those Wierwolfs tubeless (TCS)? Have the WTB Vigilante 2.3 TCS and Beeline 2.2 TCS and they feel great, not a hint of rolling.
  3. I bet you we're probably in the same weight category.
  4. Thanks, what price did you get it for?
  5. They'll BOTH be 3 on 29 November Yes, they were born on the same day. Don't know how many confused looks I get when I mention this to new people, including one response, "From the same litter???
  6. He looks VERY much like Congo, but Congo has only 3 white hairs on his chest, Ming (the Labbie/Mastiff cross) does laps in the pool, Congo on the other hand just goes on the top step (second if it's REALLY hot)
  7. Any chance of a link or pic of the el cheapo gun?
  8. Currently running a WTB Vigilante up front and Beeline in the back (IIRC you have a Trance 27.5?) So far been enjoying them, small sidewall cut on the Beeline (could of happened to any tyre), but a plug sorted that out, no problem. CWC Tygervalley had a few Vigilantes a while back. I can pick one up for you and bring it past sometime (work in Bellville and live in Hout Bay). Else I'm sure droo can sort something out for you too.
  9. Made me think too, that look they give you as you drive down the driveway. And everyday at they go down to the gate to welcome you home. (worked from home the one day and they went down to wait for my wife to come home, they do the same for me at 17:30)
  10. No, you don't need to have done the others
  11. Only thing that's even remotely acceptable is a set of 2.5 Hookworms http://cdn.maxxiscentral.com/tyreimages/tyre-image-Hookworm_l.png
  12. I have one I picked up recently, send me a PM
  13. It follows on from Omega Man's post, "they/them" referring to a large volume of the MTBers. When I say don't know better, I'm referring to the knowledge that there are other genres within MTB (XCO, XCM, XCE, AM/Trail (or Enduro for racing), DH, DJ, drinking beer, etc.) each have their pros and cons and some people have more of an aptitude for one than another. I tend to do more AM/Trail riding than anything else, because of lack of time, fitness (did an intervarsity XCO event or 2 when I was fitter), etc. But I'll still be doing the Origin of Trails.
  14. Just to add, they don't know better.
  15. Enduro is actually just the race format. I believe Trail and All-Mountain have plenty of numbers.
  16. It's the landing that hurts
  17. There's a guy that I've seen at 2 Dirtopia Enduros that rides them with his fully rigid Kona Unit. And he's pretty quick on it too
  18. Front use these http://www.evobikes.co.za/wheels/wheelset-accessories/mavic-15mm-to-normal-qr-convertors.html Rear use these http://www.evobikes.co.za/wheels/wheelset-accessories/mavic-adapters-for-12mm-thru-axle-to-normal-qr.html
  19. It's a dogs life But sometimes you gotta work for it Be a pillow Be a horse
  20. 2014 Sensor and Force have both been available in SA
  21. Any idea who did this?
  22. If they're bermed they aren't switchbacks. Berms have their place, but not there
  23. I would take the TM
  24. Can you post the specs or links to them?
