    Very interesting reading all the pressures everyone is running. I weight 90kg and have 2.3 wide tires front and back with Wide Lightning rims. 1.1 bar front and 1.4 rear. This gives be loads of grip and I haven't damaged the rim as yet on trails ranging from Thaba to Van Gaalens. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Where can I get my hands on one of these, or should I go on there website and purchase it directly?

    I've had my Reverb for over a year now without any issue. Maybe I've just been lucky. I think it's time for a service as its never been serviced before (3000km). Who in Joburg can service these droppers? I'm sure the bike shop will most likely send it to the agents for the service, but is there someone in Jozi that can do it and do it faster than the agents. Mine was bought from Chain Reaction Cycles and not bought locally. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    I totally agree. Gauteng has nothing that can compete when it come to trails that has excellent flow, such as Garden Route Trail Park, Jonkers, Oak Valley and Paul Cluver. Redbarn and the Spruit comes closest in the land of the big smoke but it is still nowhere near those trails mentioned when it comes to pure fun and flow in my books. I wish we could have a Garden route trail park in Gauteng. Maybe we could built such tracks at King kloof....???????????? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Specialized Camber Carbon Comp large frame. American Classic Wide Lighting wheels. 2.3 Ground Control Tyres. 1x10 set-up with 34T Oval 11-36. Reverb Stealth Dropper post Easton Carbon flat handle bar 12.4kg with pedals I know Rockshox only weighs in at 560g, but my word, I swear it weighs more than that. The bike is heavy at the back. But I love it!!

    I've not come across that issue. Give Garmin technical support a call for help. They are currently investigating the issue that I'm having with the maps, and I'm sure they will be able to assist you.

    When I open the golf app, it just says that I can download more on Garmin connect. The Fenix 3 obviously doesn't have any courses loaded and the Garmin connect website doesn't allow be to download the the courses that I see on the website. I'll give The distributor a call to see if they can help. Will post the step by step procedures it if I come right
  10. Jakkals77
    This might be stupid question but how did you download it onto the watch? Garmin Connect on a Mac doesn't seem to give me that option.
  11. Jakkals77
    I don't use the Golf app much but, has anybody been able to load golf courses on the new Fenix 3 golf application? I can see the course data on Garmin Connect, but downloading them is another story.
  12. Jakkals77
    Thanks for the explanation. I'll wait for the final software update from Garmin before I install it on my device....????????

    Ive noticed that the grinding noise is Not coming from the chain ring but rather the chain. Ive had an Absolute Black Oval chainring and a Kitted chainring and on both the chain made the grinding noise. You need to add, or remover spacers between the chain ring and your crank at the front, so that it can line up with the centre gear on you rear cassette. The grinding noise is a result from the chain having too much horizontal or side ways movement. Just line it up properly and the problem should be solved.

    She's a beauty. Enjoy!!
  17. Jakkals77
    Yes it does that as well. i'm not sure how true this is but the guys at Freewheel Cycology said yesterday that Roxshock will not honour the warranty on the product unless this items is actually installed. At least I now have proof that it was installed.
  18. Jakkals77
    Hahaha.....Ja, the concept is the same, and the smile on your face is the same as well.

    Thanks 1. Regular 1-36 Cassette. I have thought about a 40T or 42T extender but for now, at least I'll get the legs stronger rather. 2. I also thought the rear tyre was installed in reverse and I forgot to check it last night as I had other things on my mind. I will check it out tonight. Thank for reminding me 3. The silver item on the dropper post is a "stop collar" that Roxshock provided in the box. It stops the dropper bottoming out (apparently its not good for the dropper post according to Freewheel Cycology) and it actually allows you to set how far you want that dropper to retract. I tried it out this morning as I didn't have it on previously, and it actually works very nicely.

    Correct, and a Easton EC 70 Carbon handle bar. Not all upgrades were done now. Only the wheelset. The dropper and bar was added in August this year, and the 1x10 conversion was done in March. I'm seriously enjoying this bike at the moment. Its so much fun to ride.....

    My 2014 model but some new toys where added recently.
  22. Jakkals77
    I pulled the trigger on these babies this week and I feel like a kid the before Christmas again. I cant wait for these to arrive.

    I'm interested to know how the navigation works on the Fenix 3. Let us know how it goes and good luck with the Transbaviaans
  24. Jakkals77
    Hmmm......Now I'm confused. Garmin Edge 810 or Fenix 3 for my MTB riding? I know its a nice problem to have, but what device would you choose? The 810 has the navigation and probably a better cycling computer but the Fenix can be worn as a everyday watch as well.......
