  1. At least Vipa is home grown Chat to your LBS and get a number so you can request a custom paint job from the Vipa team.. Don't expect miracles but it's worth a try?
  2. Why no 29er NORCO?WHY? HOT HOT HOT
  3. In loving memory of my pet Dart! Took a lot to serve him at the table but it was worth it

  6. Thule 3 bike tow hitch carrier with drop down feature=9k http://www.bicycling...2/#!prettyPhoto Can carry 3 bikes weighing not more than 25kg each?what bikes are they loading lol. Buzzrack with the same features but a 4 bike carrier=5.3k Can carry 4 bikes not more than 15kg each which makes sense lol http://www.bicycling...ck-for-you-2/6/ http://buzzrack.com/...bike-carrier-2/ Just plain damn crazy.

  7. If you wanna blow 15k plus (money no object kinda stuff)go XX1,X1 or XO1. I currently have a Spec Epic comp carbon with Std 2x10 and twisgrips. This what i AM giving myself for Christmas Total cost=2K http://int.oneupcomponents.com/collections/all-products/products/oneup-components-sprocket http://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/raceface-chainring-single-narrow-wide Med derailleur recommended No chain guide needed with RaceFace No FD needed too hehehe
  8. Google everything you need to know on the basics of servicing a bike.Buy the necessary tools as you go along and by year end you will do it all on ur own Its not rocket science-it's a bicycle lol
  9. no one here included a hanger?? i never go offroad without one.
  10. The fact here is, who needs to be most careful here with regards to ensuring you stay alive? The chap in the vehicle? The chap on the bike? We can rant and rave all year long but you got to look after yourself at the end of the day. Ride to live and you will live to ride.
  11. Thanks,how many links would you suggest?Two to start?
  12. I find the chain on my epic comp carbon tends to come off when changing to lower crank-24T? It is not coming off during the change down but when on the lower cog. There is a hell of a lot of slack when not pedalling? Do i remove a link or what? I did replace my Sram X9 long cage rear derailleur with a Sram XX medium cage rear derailleur.Would this change the set up? Do i need a chain tensioner or is this slack normal? My set up is: XO twistshifters 2x10 crankset 24T-38T Sram X7 front derailleur Sram XX 2x10 spd rear derailleur cassette-11-36 10spd chain(not sure on the linkage) Please advice through experience or it'll just be guessing
