  1. I am glad that I have not seen it, it would make me do stupid things to get hold of it How many of my hard earned rands would I have to chuck at that beast to own it? Will Mike trade it for my beautiful young girlfriend with few miles on her? What about organs, I have a spare kidney and testicle?
  2. How well do you think the Status will fair as an Enduro bike? Is it heavy? Obviously you will want to equip it with single crown air fork and maybe air shock. I just wonder how it will climb......when one have to. I really like the look of the frame, no frills just a very clean look.
  3. Peaty is the ShizNiz. One of the best films I've seen ever!!! Cool of PB to premier it!

    Hai...

    Sweet! Where did you get in from?
  5. Nice Hairy. Is it the RL2 version? How is it holding up? The reviews look very promising, and in shootouts they waste forks twice their price.
  6. That Liteville always makes me think that it could castrate me, if I get into a top tube predicament on rough terrain. Think: Blunt scissor........hehehe.
  7. Oh yeah, that paint scheme rocks. Imagine what you can do with a three tone paint scheme like that! I am liking X Fusion more and more very day, it seems like solid forks. I might replace my noodly Fox with a 34mm Slant later this year.
  8. New Bionicon Edison Evo looks very nice!!!!! More here http://enduro-mtb.co...-scotland-pits/
  9. Hehe SLiiick, yeah I am in heaven now. I have always had flats on my bikes, but back in the day I could drop my seat way down and still pedal. Now I need to be in the optimum position to lug my "fit -ish body for my age I guess" around. I feel my bike is pretty sweet at the moment, the dropper really did it! Flats n droppers 4 Life!
  10. I got me a dropper post! Best puchase eva!
  11. Ek is gatvol vir hierdie tipe arrogante k@k bestuurders in Bloem! Hulle maak net soos hulle wil, en dan wil hulle jou aanvat vir hulle foute. Ek ry meestal net in 7damme as ek kan, want as jy durf naby die paaie ry sal een of ander breinlose bestuurder dit regkry om jou raak te ry. Ek is bly jy is OK, en en hoop jy kan daardie viswuif bietjie rook!
  12. I wonder what will happen to you if you buy your wife a Hoover for her birthday these days? Probably sleep on the couch for a while hey
  13. 559 is still reigning Enduro Specific champion........ Beats all these other sizes mentioned here.......
  14. I'd say definitely go for it, sounds like a good deal to me. I dont know what the road bike is worth, but believe me the Stumpy will give you endless smiles. Just make sure its not knackered, before you seal the deal. Check out this link on second hand check ups http://www.bicycling.co.za/bikes-gear/buy-second-hand-safely/2/
  15. I have Elixer 7 Trails, riding with them for over a year now trouble free. Awesome stopping power and modulation. Also the levers kick ass and Matchmakers are a genius system. Less clutter, the Deore, SLX and XT levers are bulky....... Just saying
  16. What do you want to swop him for? I'd think a bike like that would be worth around R7-9000, depends on the condition.
  17. True, but this is Specialized's take on the new Enduro Specific 559 that just came onto the market. So it should be bloody good.
  18. I had the same experience. Hubbers talked me into going tubeless.....Never looked back after that! Throw that crap away and do the same.

  20. That Capra is the hottest thing since Miley's hammer licking........ I need one!!!!!!
  21. Enjoy!!!!! I am heading off to Hogsback this weekend!
  22. I dont know about Wild Mountain Adventures, but check this link out. http://www.wartrail....odation(2078615).htm I have stayed in Pitlochrie, I think it is the most beautiful place inland. 7kms of trout stream, and you can actually ride some wicked cattle tracks on the farm. Its very steep there and the farm is HUGE!!!! I would defs recommend it. There is not much around the farm, about 40kms from Rhodes, 30 from Barkley East and 20 kms from Lesotho border. We drove Lundean's Nek when we where there, breathtaking views!!!
  23. Hi Nico Rhodes is a great place to stay. There is a bunch of guest houses there and some guest farms around the town. In Rhodes you can try the Rhodes hotel, its very old and has a great vibe to it. Also you can try Walkerbouts Inn, Dave Walker is the man to speak to there, he also used to brew his own beer which was awesome. Rhodes is a great base camp to go visit Tiffendell and to go flyfishing in the area, and off course biking. I havent been there in a few years, so things might have changed. Check on the net for contact details. Goodluck
  24. I also still like having the real thing, but only the mags worth buying. MBUK and Tread thats pretty much it. I suppose if I had a tablet, then I would probably buy less magazines. I just do not really care much about electronics, I like mechanical stuff and invest mostly in them.
  25. If its enduro specific, it must be super quick! Now I need it!
