  1. Hi all What all would be involved if one wanted to convert a 29"r to a 27,5"r.....apart from rims and tyres taking into account it's a Cannondale Lefty 29'r
  2. The stuff legends are made off hey..... A extremely proud day to be a South African Go Impy you biscuit !!!!!!!
  3. I would suggest to get in touch with the guys who custom paint bicycle frames as they have the know how on this....... Cycle Art is one of them Alternatively you can look for other companies at the back of local cycling magazines
  4. So the question remains............. Have you converted to 27,5" yet
  5. What about the old proven 25 hours day bar.......Bar one

  10. Dude, you have no idea........ I am yet to use any of this stuff myself hey Nice to be able to help fellow Mounties if they get stuck. Nice thing is the Fiance also runs the same setup in her bag.......so we have more than enough to go around Oh, I forgot to mention that I also have one of those small "puncture" repair kits.....and some chain lube just in case So much for paying through my ears to put my Lefty on a diet hey

  12. Dude, its been something I have been toying around with aswell I was told by my local LBS that any road wheel will work on a 29'r frame as a indoor training wheel. Can someone here maybe confirm this ?
  13. Awesome news about the possibility of you guys stocking Dale's Love the name !!!!! As the Hype.........I'm totally in and will suppost these guys as much as possible !!!!!! It as it take's serious Balls to open a store in this economic times. Given the area and the atrocious service the local shops in the area and the stock they keep...it's sure exciting to finally have a decant shop on our back door. How do we go about if we have possible products we know suppliers would like to stock in this shop ? I'm asking as I have a couple
  14. Freaking nice !!!!!
  15. Dude, that is totally awesome and very excited times ahead. Being in the area is going to make it very convenient.........and if you add Cannondale to that sweet looking list you sure will have two Dales won over to be serviced and washed there
  16. Is there any indication of the brands they are going to stock ?
  17. This is really exciting news.............about time we get LBS in this area. ..........And with this store not being far from the Modderfontein mountain bike tracks, would be kewl if they could hookup and get something really decant going Looking forward
  18. Hi all, I have taken delivery of my brand new O-Synce Navi2coach GPS/Bike computer. Here's the official URL: http://www.o-synce.com/en/products/bike/navi2coach.html Prepared to be blown away by the ultra compact unit filled with features and functionality only seen on top of the range GPS units of other well know and established brands. The unit layout is so easy to navigate around and with the added functionality that one can customize your screens you want to view it's really nifty. Mounting the unit on the bike is also really convenient as you are supplied with two mounting options. One being the normal handle bar mount attached with cable ties "Supplied" and double sided tape, also supplied.....or a stem based unit also mountable with double sided tape and two separate cable ties supplied. I will give you guys and gals a more in detailed review as soon as I have played more with the unit Jokerman
  19. Dude, look the importers up.......if not mistaken they are in Cape Town. Pretty sure they will be able to advise you who they supply locally
  20. You dont by any chance have the guys in Wineberg's number or name ?
  21. Hi all I recently bought a 2012 Cannondale 29" Flash Carbon 1. I would however like to change the standard black wheels to something more Zooty What 29" rims do we get in SA that comes standard in White as a colour ? Your assistance is greatly appreciated in this regards Jokerman
  22. Yip, those are the same one's I'm riding now too.......GREAT pedal and best bang for buck
  23. Shimano Pedals are one of the easiest and cheapest options out there....and falls within you price range Also look at Beepop, they work well....but you might need to modify your shoe to fit the cleat
  24. Does anyone know if there is still places open for the 10km ??? Only saw it now and we are in the facinity, so would like to come join you all........ I sent a emial to 'entries@advendurance.com' awaiting their reply
