  1. We can sort something out for the middle of the week if that suits you.
  2. I can still sort something out next week if you want.
  3. Never ever underestimate my ability to wangle a morning or two off
  4. What was the cost?
  5. I could be wrong on this one (I wasn't looking that closely) but that was what the conversation seemed to indicate.
  6. I don't think that is the case anymore.A couple of us spotted some guys testing a pair of e-bikes at Tokai recently and had a chat with them. They mentioned that one of the bikes was seriously powerful and had enough oomph to pull a wheelie and throw the rider if too much throttle was applied.
  7. Cool stuff but the standout line there is "the police were not particularly knowledgable about the procedure for reclaiming stolen property" That is hysterical...
  8. Good stuff. But it would have been nice if the OP had let people know.
  9. There are a whole bunch of helpful guys in this sport.
  10. That's the trick isn't it, fixing the mistake and fixing it properly. If you do that you have a customer for life and not just a one off hit and run deal.
  11. Why not turn that"you" into a "we"? Go on you know you want to, you won't regret it.
  12. This. So much more bike for your money and so much less stress when you scratch it for the first time.
  13. As far as I know the stores are supposed to have a policy of asking for proof of purchase or ownership for bikes (may not be company wide but I know some do).
  14. Swing by Tokai tomorrow with us, pretty sure that will make todays mud look minimal.
  15. There is a whiff of that around isn't there.
  16. my that is a quick return to form.
  17. You will soon work out who to listen to and who to ignore. There are some really good guys on here and a lot will go out of their way to help you no matter the situation. As for the others? It's the internet so who cares.
  18. Hey Myles I messaged Ian, just waiting for him to get back to me.
  19. There is nothing wrong with getting another opinion (or a few dozen) here before going ahead and taking it to be looked at.The owner has now armed himself with more knowledge if the bike shop are difficult about this.
  20. Trail map is here - http://tokaimtb.co.za/trails/ If you loop from Tokai around Silvermine and back you can probably make up a ride of around 50km with a lot more than 900m ascent.
  21. It's because he is eleven that he can, with minimal effort.Believe me I have an eleven year old here and I have given him the heaviest oldest bike I could find and he still bins me going up and down. The sod.
  22. I'm loving the really small warning printed on there lol, by the time you can read that it is way too late. Is it national kill an XC rider day?
  23. Nor is he.Please if you want to make a point don't exaggerate stupidly for effect.
  24. Honestly some brakes are just noisy, as long as they stop you okay just leave it for now. They may quieten down a little when they bed in more.
