  1. Bosk@k? Not Naais!!, But No, Wrong Cruxpearl2007-03-16 07:00:59
  2. 40% straight?
  3. 23% - where the fu#$% does that come from?
  4. Seuntjie staan langs die pad en grawe in sy neus. Sy ma s?: "Nee sies man" Seuntjie: "Aag ma, Robbie Hunter doen dit ook!" Ma: "Ja, maar nie met 'n teelepel nie!!!"
  5. ek wil iets s? asb: As ek vir RH sponsor en hy "flip 'n middelvinger" on camera, met my kit aan, is hy gefire. PS: Die ander dag wys iemand my 'n speed camera langs die pad, en aangesien ek nie "speed" nie, wys ek toe daai mooi teken vir die camera. OOPS, daar flash hy want dis afdraand en my spoed het vermeerder. Ek wag nog vir my foto.
  6. Hey Velouria, I'm happy for you but that seat post angle looks funny. Don't think I'll ever get used to it. If it makes you go even faster, it does not matter that it looks funny though.
  7. Cause it uses more fuel?
  8. Chris414. I did not ride those bikes, so I can't say what the difference in ride will be, but my Carbon Trek rides 100 times nicer than the Aluminium Trek, I used to have. I've never had a Dura Ace grouppo, so I don't know what I'm missing I suppose. I would go for the carbon one if I were you.
  9. trust me . . . just give it a try . . . it seriously works the best' date=' i have tried so many different things, and this is the one i use now. [/quote'] Motorcycle chain wax will work on your quadbike, but it makes an awefull mess on an MTB chain. Been there done that.
  10. I'll second that - inexpensive too!
  11. Just take care where the gavel meets up with the tar. The garvel itself is not that bad, but there is a bit of a downhill just before the change to tar. The change itself is a sharp edge where you'll pinch flat before you can say snakebite. Experience talking.
  12. I would hate to have to ride with those power cranks. Way too lazy to even want to pedal full circle all the time. I have found though, even though I don't ride with a power meter, that closing gaps especially uphill happens much quicker if I concentrate on my pedal technique for the duration of my effort. Just stomping on the pedals alone, usually leaves the gap wide open, but that's just my unscientific experience.
  13. Bikemax, that link of yours just confirmed that I dislike ric_stern/RST. He's obviously quite arrogant and somehow seems to insist that everybody that has a different opinion is completely uneducated in his field. Enough about ric for now. There was an article in Bicycling mag a year or so ago about the world champoin time trialist that averaged over 40km/h on his own over quite some distance, the exact numbers escapes me now. Point is, he was using pedals/cranks that were disconnected - i.e. you can pedal backwards with one crank while the other stays still. This in turn forces you to pedal in circles, otherwise your foot that's not pushing down will just stay at the bottom of the pedal stroke - This obviously superior cyclist, contributed a considerable amount of his success to his superior full circle pedal stroke. My 2c regarding pedalling full circle.
  14. , Oom H ek stem saam, dis forkin duur pille daai.
  15. Berocca - that stuff atually makes a difference!
  16. As jy jou sakdoek gebruik kan jy daarmee maak wat jy wil Jinx. Probleem is, my sakdoek is gewoonlik natter as my neus, want my hele outfit is soaked.
  17. Vra die Extreme Leftist of hy nie syne op nog 'n PowerTap wil intrade nie. Dan hoef hy nie aanmekaar wiele/tyres om te ruil nie.
