I agree with the replies above, the Trance is definitely aimed at those who want to have a lot of fun on a mtb… A good combination of versatility and fun

Nukeproof Generator AMs, initially got a loose rim from CRC. Got a complete wheel too and Im just loving it. Not badly priced either.

Assbags!!

Also check out the instructional video on Stans website, http://www.notubes.com/helpcenter.aspx The best is to use soapy water to seat the tyre on the rim first.

Merida big99 seems like a solid buy..

Hi Hubbers A mate of mine wants to buy a dual sus 29er xc bike and is looking to spend about R20k on an alloy framed bike. Suggestions?

I have just done a solo mtb ride around Waterkloof air force, Irene farm and through to old Jhb road back down to my house. Riding along on the dirt next to the roads, I prefer to keep of the right of the roads facing oncoming traffic. This way I don't have to look over my shoulder all the time to keep an eye on the cars coming from behind me. On my ride I went passed a couple of riders going in the opposite direction, most of which keep to the left of the roads. Which side is the norm to ride on and does it not make more sense keeping to the right in order to see oncoming traffic better?
