  1. I’ve always loved the feeling of hitting a trail with a good machine underneath me. The roads just don’t have that same kind of adrenaline. But in a large way it also lets me take a break from my everyday. Because of this, I always want to have a mountain bike in my life, even if it means I can only ride it in the mountains once a month.

  2. It’s hard doing a review on a second hand bike. You don’t know it’s history, and particularly with this one, I don’t even know its age. But this is a special review, something different, something sentimental. This is my first Beijing bike. And my girlfriend bought it for me. Click here to view the article
  3. Nice one. Reads really well Would've loved to see how it faired against the Anthem 1 27.5
  4. Working, doing the teaching thing! And obviously a bit of writing too! But traveling is also part and parcel of being over here.
  5. I haven't yet, no, but it's on my list of things to do! I've heard they've got quite a cool community of bikers connected with that shop.
  6. Having been in Beijing for about 2 months I have learned a lot about what biking can be like in a city. Here it’s a chaos that you couldn’t imagine until you experience it. And for everyone who is involved in the fight between bikes and cars, it is a perfect place to get some perspective. Click here to view the article
  7. Completely different suspension design, amongst other things. I think it's the triangle at the seat tube/top tube junction that is the main point of similarity.
  8. Damn that Pyga looks hot, and the business too.
  9. Any gravity rider worth their weight in Stan's will tell you that a solid pair of knee pads is essential to feel confident about bombing trails at 100%. With side protection and a big, solid front pad, the 661 Rage knee pads look the business, and are aimed at pure performance. Click here to view the article
  10. Bontrager may not be the first name in gloves or cycling apparel, but they are certainly making their mark. Offering an array gloves to suit most people's needs, we have had their Rhythm Elite pair on hand for a little while now. How have they stood up to the abuse, and can they compare to the more established brands? Click here to view the article
  11. Here is their store locator: http://www.foxhead.com/locator/?co=za
  12. There's a Fox store in Canal Walk. And I'll get a list of retailers for you too.
  13. So you think you have what it takes to ride alongside the top road cyclists in the world? How about on a mountain bike while doing a wheelie? The man's got style, got to give him that. Click here to view the article
  14. The 661 EVO AM is the most comfortable out of all 6 helmets tested for the shootout, is competitive with weight and offers more coverage than the 3 tested here. It's also competitively priced at R2000.
