Really like the rawness of the speed company racing boys. In their interviews, nothing is scripted and they tell it like it is.

Going to be a banger of a finish.

I have a Hero 4 black you can borrow and trial for a bit if you want. Older version but still really good footage. Pop me a message if you are interested.

I’ve used the bicycle couriers twice. Excellent service and fair price. Boxed. https://bicyclecouriers.co.za

Thanks. Fitted it and it seems to fit okay, but I don't want to be silly and ruin a brand new chain and or cassette, so being extra careful.

Is the following KMC link compatible with SRAM GX Eagle 12 speed? I've tried to search and can't seem to find an answer. It does however look different comparing to the SRAM link on my chain. It looks like a road link to me. If it is, I'm assuming it won't work. Any advice welcome, please. https://www.takealot.com/kmc-chain-link-12-speed-gold-2-card/PLID73147265

I'm no expert, but I think the chainring size shouldn't affect the anti-squat. It will affect the pedal-kickback though, which is a by-product, but I don't see how it will really make a difference. Edit: Ignore me. Mr. Google gave some good reading and Cliff has a point. Adding a cool link for those interested. https://www.trainerroad.com/forum/t/best-chainring-size-for-xc-racing/42442/46?page=3

All the best with the R&R

Get a membership at Wolwespruit. You wont regret it. I can show you around early one morning?

Great place to start

Trail and raw!

Early morning at Wolwespruit. First 30min with a light. The seasons have definitely changed.

Amazing. Thanks for sharing!

I say keep on riding, but take it easy for a couple of weeks. i.e. no 27 y.o. Funny business. Take care of your body and then perhaps consider riding less aggressive and being more risk averse. Falling is the pits. Falling multiple times in short succession is even worse. Sorry man, and speedy recovery.

Eish. Sorry to hear and see this. I don’t think warranty will cover this. But to be safe reach out to Pyga directly. Knipe racing in CT does Pyga.

Consider Csixx as well.

Yeah, I don't trust the worlds most well trained dog near my kids. I'm a GSD owner myself and keep eyes on him all the time when we play together. Animals and people who act like animals are never to be trusted wholeheartedly.

I'm terribly sorry about your experience. You'll probably find a host of opinions about this. I can't tell you what I would have done, because we do act strange in these 2-5seconds life threatening situations and I've surprised myself (for better and worse in these moments) I don't carry anything and I do my utmost best to cycle on routes where I have a very small chance of encountering skollies. Be that as it may, these things can still happen - even where I ride. I'd like to think I would have handed over my bike and walked away unscathed. A fiets is just not worth a stab wound in my opinion.

A better starting point to your question would be to determine what you view as top and bottom. After determining that, you can look for an answer.

After seeing the time, did you think “mmhmmm, I could probably top that!”? Lol

What bike is this?

What dropper are you looking at?

Great job - looks amazing!

Yip. I also abide by no. 5

Welcome back & enjoy!
