true

But it's not Specialized

Wow I hope we get the EVO model this time

Why can't we all just be bicyclists? Was it not Robin de Groot that also come from road racing and wom her first MTB event, anyway this past year there was a few road guys and girls that went over and doing very well.

Yes I see there was a number off team just over 10 hours

It's in the rules if you mis first cut off you can go on but non finisher but if you mis second stage cut off you go home. That is good you could have in day with lots of technical problems would be bad if they just send you home after all that you have put in and it was out of you control. But if you are not fit or strong enough to do Epic you will not make other stages and then you go home

S track works

Hi Wallee, what app do you use is it on Iphone and can you go upto 42 cassette ?... Thanks

CH sounds like a good idea

I use Motorex grease and lube.... but there are cheaper good products I put grease on everything that's got thead and wheel shafts and freewheel hub. Wet or Dry lube chain and semi bath on shock and fork. I also put grease on bearings but they are sealed but I think it still stops dust entering don't think is helps the rolling part of the bearing

Can I place an order now? 2015 Specialized Stumpjumper FSR EVO 6S0B Black Medium

O thats after every ride plus ones a week cassette remove and clean and chain parktools chain clean unit with powasol

Powasol works for me and Motorex bike shine (just because I love my bike) No high pressure wash !!!

Yes that does seem like good option EVO sells a Wolftooth one http://www.evobikes.co.za/components/cassette/wt-sr42tred.html

I think a good option is the LEONARDI RACING General Lee cassette adapter 29-42T which you swap out with your top 3 gears on your cassette. I personally think one needs the larger range. They are expensive for only 3 gears at R2000 but a lot less than XX1 plus no new freewheel hub required. All you need is adapter and something like wolf single chainring in front total = R3000 and you have 11-42 x 1 http://www.evobikes.co.za/components/cassette/leonardi-racing-general-lee-cassette-adapter-29-42t-for-sram-improved-design.html From all the reviews I have seen the guys are happy with this setup but they do say shifting in a bit harder between original cassette and adapter but also do mention it did get better (maybe they just got use to it) I'm still going for X01 as I would have to us 30T in front for hills and then 11x30 would be to slow on flat but if you have the power I think this would work good with 34T or 32T. If you were happy with running 11-36 this would be much nicer
