  1. Had a rad day shooting on these trails, Ewald is a brilliant photographer and captures the scene really well. There really is a lot more to ride there but I think we covered the best and most fun of those trails. All I can say is keep an eye out for the next months pics
  2. This one is only made red although I'm sure I could send it for anodizing if it really bugs you.
  3. Shot, Always feeling the blue. It helps me relax when I'm riding It has since had some reworking, I couldn't get the hang of the dropper on the right. Thanks Dirt Merchant Bicycle Co., Chat to Phia, she just got a shipment in last week.
  4. Just had my baby pimped out with some sexy new bits. Really stoked with my new build, the Spitfire came out awesome and the new parts are amazing. I finally got a taste of what Hope brakes deliver and I must say that I'm amazed, the power and control is unbelievable. New Hope Pro 4 hubs don't waste any time engaging and sound like an angel singing in your ear. Hope Cranks are light like a feather, super stiff and have style for days. Sleek new Gamut TTr Chainring and Trail SXC guide are silent and didn't miss a beat this past weekend. It wouldn't have been complete if I didn't get bars and stem to finish off the Blue, Bollywood to the max with Kore Durox Bar & Rivera Stem, looks rad and feels solid.

  23. A short video showing the fun side of the Braamfontein Spruit and why we ride it. Probably the most debated public area in South Africa. Open to the public and used by families, runners, dogs and cyclists it can get quite busy at times with tensions running high. We are all very lucky to have such an awesome trail/park in the middle of JHB. Great singletrack through the heart of (Jozi) Johannesburg. Thanks to my friends for helping film and make the video, to the Spruit Fairies for maintaining the trails & to Majozi for the use of his song.
