  1. Hi all. We had a break in last night. Area: crowthorne kyalami Bikes: 2014 giant trance 27.5 size medium, matte black, new lyne amp wheel set, mint condition. 2010 giant trance 26 size small, white, new wheel set, mint condition.
  2. Having fun at red barn this arvie.
  3. Hey Bennie, the case is called a lovemei case. Got it online for R450 incl del. It is for a samsung galaxy s4. Very protective but very weighty.
  4. New pair of saints courtesy of CWC seeing as my old pair are now on the gf's bike. New protective phone case as well to try out.
  5. Anyone know who in GP stock fox launch pro pads?
  6. hahahaha, shot for the feedback guys.
  7. hey guys. Looking for elbow pads but not sure on which will work best for me. I broke my arm 3 weeks back near the elbow knuckle and have been advise that it will be safer to wear some protection on the arm for the next couple months when riding. anyone have any real world suggestions on what could work best? something with a hard cap is preferable. the pad needs to be worn at all times so not just putting it on when descending. I have been looking at the following: MXalliance 661 Rage hard cap troy lee EG5550 Full throttle fox titan race leatt elbow hard any advise would be appreciated. I am only looking at buying locally, not interested in importing goods at this moment.
  8. got some new bootiesMT44 and pedalsM424http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r543/shakamara01/shoepedal_zps9444a9b1.jpg then added in a mudfender http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r543/shakamara01/mudguard_zps4e882c4f.jpg http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r543/shakamara01/mudguard02_zpsb38251f6.jpg http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r543/shakamara01/mudguard01_zps46e629a2.jpg and then some bike protection as well, this is just a pic of the bottom part of the downtube but most of the bike is covered in all the cable rub and chip spots http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r543/shakamara01/downtubeprotection_zps810ab1f4.jpg
  9. Kyalami, just off Ditchley road barbeque downs.
  10. They my local LBS as well. Never had an issue with them, quick, efficient and friendly service everytime.
  11. Hey all. Been looking at getting a full suspension bike that is more trail orientated. Think I have narrowed my choices down to these two, mainly for budget purposes, the trance 2 27.5 or the trance x1 29er. Both I have found round the 20k mark. Im looking for a bike to buy and ride, no needing to add this or that upgrade for a while. I live in gp and currently ride a 29er ht. I ride the usual places, van gaalens, red barn, kings kloof etc. Looking for a do it all bike, odd marathon, fun trail ride once a week, im going to keep the ht for distance rides. any feedback would be appreciated.
  12. Giant trance x1 29er?
  13. Thanks for the feedback. Was that for the 2013 and 2014 range? Looks like the 2014 one forty has a little better spec than the trance. Had a chance to look at a trance 2 this week, nice bike but was informed of almost a 20% price increase from this month. That logic doesnt make sense at all to me. Surely if you have already imported your goods you have paid what needs to be paid and the current exchange rate and import duties doesnt effect your stock prices. Sounds like normal 'taking the client for a ride' speech to me.
  14. Does anyone know if the merida one forty range is available locally? Read some good reviews on the bike but cant find any local content. Looks like a good option when paired against the giant trance 2. Any feedback will be appreciated.
  15. Elvis, awesome crazy boston http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r543/shakamara01/IMAG0158_zps54e1f223.jpg Honey the spaniel and Brutus the boxterXstaffie http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r543/shakamara01/DSC01904_zpsd5fa2052.jpg
  16. I might be mistaken, but those two guys standing by the hay stack look alot like Patrick Morewood and Andrew Smale?
  17. Pm me if you interested. My company will be putting various options together soon. Price per set will vary from R150 - R250 depending on what material is required. A basic set will consist of: 2x chain slap protector, cranks and about 20 circle square and rectangle shapes in various sizes. Material to choose from will be clear 120mic, clear 250mic, or either of these with a colour base in various colours or a custom print with the 120 or 250 mic clear cover. All materials are vehicle grade cast vinyls so they are conformable and the adhesion very robust but can be removed with little or no glue residue. As soon as I get a gap I will put up a post with pics, colours and the basic sticker set.
  18. The Rietvlei cycle shop has stock of the humvee. Bought mine there 2 months back for R850.
  19. shot for the feedback guys, what i can see is that it is old stock to clear, hence the price, just not sure if it is worth going for a old stock bike and the trade of mine. what else is out there for prices between 10-15k that can compete?
  20. hi all, new to the forum and need a little advise on the raleigh rm9 full carbon, x9 rear, xt cranks and hubs, juicy brakes, fox front, got a deal on a new one for R10k with trading in my current nomad40. Any feedback and reviews will be appreciated
