  1. ...running a 45mm already
  2. Ya, had a bit of a rant that the Yeti in the classifieds is a large, I'm a medium myself. Having ridden a SB-95 previously, I was thoroughly impressed, so the 66 is high up on my list. But alas, I'm a shorty...
  3. Sure, but every component on my DJ bike is better than on the Reign.... and the Reign is 3-4 years old...... I don't know.
  4. That is a tempting prospect, but I couldn't do a straight swap... I'm particularly attached to my XT brakes and I feel like the bike as a whole is worth more than 7k, not to say that we can't make a deal though.
  5. That's basically what I was thinking too, the Sukuma. But finding one is another story entirely..... Custom, like maybe British racing green or something? Giant Reign... yes, but no. I don't know why, but it doesn't do anything for me. The NS is just way more attractive.

  7. So, it's time to look at a new ride. I'm currently selling my Nukeproof Snap and Argyle fork (if you're keen PM me )and looking for a 140mm+ all mountainy ride. I've found a fork, 160mm Fox Talas, and have all but decided on an NS Soda Air, but thought I would put it to the people for some opinion. My budget is max 17,000 for a frame, has to be 26 and minimum 140mm travel. And go...
  8. There's also this kind of option: http://www.pinkbike....wed-2-2014.html You get the 42T cog and a lot of the benefits without busting the bank.

  10. Mountain Biking in South Africa is really on the cusp of something special. We are producing some world class athletes but we are unearthing even more.

  11. Impressing and certainly making the wintering side of the world jealous, Stefan Garlicki shows some great style in the sunny Cape, while most of the Northern Hemisphere settles in for the cold or straps on the skis. Click here to view the article

  16. A spongy, lightweight padding that can take a beating like proper hard-cased pads may seem far-fetched to say the least. But the time spent on G-Form's pads has been anything but painful and they have proved their resilience time and again. Click here to view the article
  17. After receiving disappointing news of its exclusion from this year’s Giro d’Italia, Ferekalsi Debesay changed the team’s fortunes when he took the first victory of the season in La Tropicale Amissa Bongo on Thursday.
