What the hell would we talk about in June and July if we all like Andy and Contadoos, neither have any personality.

huh?

Usually about 2 grand more than you can afford at any particular moment

The sad reality is that they will be snapped up in a flash.

Shot for the feedback, I'll report back once I have given mine a whirl

I must be honest, I have battled to get an X-King to seat properly on a set of 29er American Classics, the front tyre was fine though. 2,4 front and 2,2 rear...

In your opinion how much better are the X-Kings than the MTN?Race King?

i used to have the M-King/R-King combo and they were ok, but I found the M-King a bit sketchy in loose gravel, as a muddy tyre they were awesome, the R-King as a muddy tyre was average. I now have X-King 2,4 front and 2,2 rear, have not ridden them yet so will wait and see, I bought the bike with them on, but I think they may be good, as they seem like a good mix between the M-King and R-King. I have also ridden with Nobby Nic in the front and Racing Ralph at the back, and in my opinion that was by far the best combo I have ever used, so I will revert back to that once I have klapped the X-Kings-Unless the X-Kings change my mind. Shwalbe are a bit pricey though for the proper UST tyre, but most people I have spoken to say the Snakeskin is better and a bit cheaper. Once had Kenda Karma's and did not like them at all for any condition.

Is that the national colours kit, our riders will wear at The Olympics? If so then i am sure Cherise Stander will now withdraw any appeal.

Warner must be one of the best commentators, two weeks ago during Danny Hart's run he shouted, "Oh my! he's balls are so big he needs to wear a hammock!" then on Gwinns run: "This man needs a check-up from the neck-up!"

Hillbilly hand fishing's new promo shot.

Fixed

Thats quite interessting, alsmost like the football club vs country debate. If it were me I would do the TdF without a doubt.

Which Saffa's are riding?

That' there is the shizzle!!

I sent a mail to Momsen today and got a reply in a few minutes, they expect to have more stock in August, so a pre order will sort that out.

You are right, save it for "the world will end on the hub Fridays" en jy? Jy weet seeker, vertel vir jou vriende oppie wielnaaf....

Now don't Spark a debate that will be blown out of Scale...

Very nice, but I have decided to not build the bike up, cos I know myself, will spend too much moola and I'm a k@k mechanic, I'll end up taking the built up bike to the LBS and somer upgrading it and get myself into deep doodoo with Your clean sister.

There is no doubt that it will be a clown bike.

There is actually no correct answer to that question, so for the sake of not wanting to start a **** storm, I will abstain... Very thought provoking question nonetheless...

Voetsek man, closet GT lover.

But there may be other options that I'm missing...

Ag swaerrie don't be a hater, I quite like the slacker head angle of the Momsen, this may be the deal clincher, but bru, GT for life, maybe I'll build a 2008 Zaskar HT SS in Dec, alway wanted to do it. Raw polished frame, Brooke's saddle and grips, Thomson Iron stem, post, cobalt champagne wheels, iron Crank bros handlebars XTR brakes, crank.
