  2. Been my go to shop since he first opened his doors Kudos to Louis and team!
  3. 1.) before getting on the bike, move indicator forward ( covering the 30% marking), apply pressure to rear shock( sit on saddle supported against a wall) and indicator will move backwards displaying 30%( if pressure is set correctly) if not reduce air pressure to achieve 30% sag. 2.as far as I know the rear shock does not come stock with any bands, I had to buy a set and started with 2 etc.
  4. When changing to the low setting the one big adjustment I had to make was adjusting my saddle as far forward as possible, so much so that I had to get an in-line seatpost headh it is possible on a 9point8 to adjust my reach apart from that , the bike descends like a demon:)
  5. 1.) I have a V1 Following and initially ran it in the H setting with a 140mm fork upfront ( I do run my stem low , without any spacers below) though , switched it to the Low setting after a few months of riding and have not looked back, Bike still climbs well, regarding pedal strikes: the 140mm fork lifts the BB slightly and have not experienced pedal strikes through rocky terrain etc

  7. I am by no means trying to downplay the incident, this is indeed a concern etc. I had a chat to the guy at the gate and he said that they know the kids(perpetrators) as they sometimes catch fish in the dam etc. What I meant to say is that Jonkershoek has not been infiltrated by hardened criminals.... as with all places...be vigilant and never let your guard down..
  8. Cycled there this morning No issues, encountered lots of riders and hikers etc.A couple of people did raise their concern at the gate, was told that it was a couple of mischievous kids.
