Yes that is amazing thank you for doing this legend. I will pop in there and get you back somehow.

Hi guys taking a chance here lost my Axs battery cage on Klipheuwel or Faircape over the weekend if anyone picked it up pls contact me. Thanks.

Joss at Specialized Tygervalley.

I run Ikon 29er 2.6 tyres at 1.4 bar on Tygerberg trails also big guy and very fast. Run these with no issue.

I ride those trails a lot and I enjoyed it to do them in a race, a bit more stress. The USN water points were great and I have enough Gels for a while now, that last 10km was brutal, I saw one or two falls but overall it was ok. Was my first race on my new bike. You will never be able to ride the cement road, Nitida to Aurora and what I think was kliprug or part of it.

The big lower here is Clicks because I was going to buy my Vooma and Energade jellies tomorrow.

We are going to make the best of it and have a blast. Did the 55km mtb last weekend and this would have been my first double. At least I will have two medals for 2015.

Sub 3 for me this year then.

I bought a very nice helmet from Sportsworld which has great protection and is well priced. Check it out its a Etto.

Yes, I see now I am looking for something that only the CIA and KGB can find. I bought one off E bay, thanks for the tip.

Hi guys, I had a crash over the weekend and cracked my Edge 500's screen. Garmin dont stock this, does anybody know of a place I can get this replaced or buy spares for it?

My Ikons did the same, it formed a bubble between the layers. But a Mtb tyres should last you a year then I replace them anyway so for that 12 months I give them hell and don't bother trying to extend their live.

Items found their home again!

Set the sag at the 20% mark and go for a ride but take your shock pump with. Choose a short section that will test your shocks and test it with 5psi up and down. Did it because my LBS told me to do this and I got my shocks perfect, I also ride a 2014 Anthem X with CTD, but my pressures are 110psi at the front and 250psi at the back but I am a bit bigger than you. Then test your rebound, this might take a while but I found 4 clicks from slow to be the best, otherwise the shock shoots you back to quick. But take time and set it up on one of your rides, it will make all of your next rides so much better.

Seems like these guys can save a lot of time if they use normal tyres. My Ardent ust never slashed anything in two years.

Can Mavic hubs be replaced?

Hi on my way out of Hoogekraal today I picked up a pair of sunglasses and a helmet. I assume it fell off a roof. Contact me if it's yours because it looks like high end stuff.

I only go to them, am I right Russel?

Hi, traded my XTC 0 29er for a Anthem X 1 29er.

Hi, I went from Silver to Black. Excuse the background.

My 2014 CTD works great on my Anthem and I love it, the 2013 shocks had problems but there is a fix for it, Fox don't even ask questions when a 2013 gets booked in and just install the upgrade seal kit. The Google reviews will scare you but there is as many good as bad reviews, but Fox is a bit high maintenance for me so far. For me I don't want anything else on my bike than Fox.

Its a brand new 2014 Anthem X, I will check it out.

After a failed attempt to by a frame off the Hub and converting my XTc 29er to a dual I came across the Anthem at my LBS. The bike has full Fox ctd suspension and reading up on it it seems to be problematic. My question is should I go for this bike, I want to move more to off road riding and my XTc is very fast, well as fast as a XL rider can go, but I like the look of the Anthem and really want to expand my off road capabilities. Will I have to say goodbye to asphalt, any advise will be great.

I have 1439m on my Garmin and 52km.

I also did the 55 but suffered from cramps from about 25km into the race ( never had that before) pushed through and improved on my time of last year. Much better course this year but that last 5k's could have been easier.
