    Didn't look like he clawed his way back to me. It looked like he was waiting for the right time to attack and in the last lap he attacked properly.

    Thank you. My lbs fitted the large yellow GIANT decals on the down tube and I can't quite decide whether to take them off or leave them on.

    So I finally built the wheels. Tomorrow will be the first ride.

    I find that clamping lightly on the top tube holds the bike quite securely and I can swivel it into the position I want.

    Hi thanks. It is the Chris Willemse stand. Probably not the sturdiest stand but at R450 on special, I can't really fault it. For home use it is perfect.

    I was very fortunate that my LBS managed to secure a 2016 Anthem frame for me. I did not realize that the mediums were so difficult to obtain. Can't wait to take her for a ride, but the wheels will take me a few days to build, in between family commitments.

    Check Meezo's diagram, number 8 shows the location of the grub screw and the little rubber grommet hiding it, for the XT brakes. I'm pretty sure that the XTR's should be the same.

    Not really enough info to go on. The ERD supplied with the rim is hardly ever correct and one can't assume the original spokes are the correct length either. You need to measure the actual rim ERD and the hub flanges and use a decent spoke calculator to determine the spoke lengths, then you can measure the existing spokes and see if they will work.

    I agree. I bought this book and it has taken the mystery out of building wheels. Made my own truing stand and have built several sets of wheels, very satisfying.

    It does not mention anything about the Epic on the entry. They just mentioned in the article that it was "traditionally seen as a warm up event for the Epic".

    Not motorised so i don't see why not.

    Yes sometimes a little bit of encouragement with a long stick is required.

    Nonsense Vetseun, you know you were not wearing a camelback! It was your boep.

    Just remember we are in their territory. Stop and wait for it to finish crossing the path. Summer is aproaching so there will surely be plenty of snake encounters.

    The VIPA is a collaboration between VIctor Momsen and PAtrick Morewood.

    The compulsory photo stop at the lookout point, I just love the Red route.

    Some really cool goodies inside RS.

    I seriously doubt it, judging by the photo's of his work that I have seen.

    I'm sorry but you lost me at "R35k". To me the effort of changing gears with the XT shifters on one bike and the XO shifters on the other is insignificant.

    Mmmmmmmm, this article is dated 27th May 2014!!!

    I suddenly feel compelled to rush out and buy some Squirt lube

    Lots of folk here in the Eastern Cape will be cheering for Rourke and Travis. Go guys

    Philip Buys took the win

    This is the difference between having a good idea and actually putting it into production.
