  1. Ok,have said before,I weigh 155kg. Vittoria Saguaro really impressed. They improved their design. Conti protection tyres,have a 240TPI count,which make the sidewalls strong,but the tyre heavy. Saguaro made their sidewalls 240tpi,and the top of the tyre(tread),120tpi for faster rolling. Also the Saguaro has directional knobs,that you can run either for traction,or speed. I turn the front for traction,and the rear for speed. Works beautifully Cheers

  3. Oh sorry,I must add that I built XC marathon bikes. HD-enduro Saguaro XC
  4. Hi peeps fitted new Vittoria Saguaro tyres to two builds. They are my new best tyres. Amazing,grip,grip,grip. Even the wet was deadly. BUY THEM!! Regards Chris
  5. To both guys for enduro tyrea. Don't look at anything but Hans Dampf 2.35 front and rear. Go for the pacestar(harder compound)at the rear,and trailstar(softer compound)up front. Those tyres are bombproof,and extremely grippy. They don't wear too fast either. Check on easybike.co.za Matthew Walsch has THE BEST pricing on german tyres. BTW,a new tyre getting insane reviews,is the Schwalbe Magic Mary,which is a do it all Enduro tyre. A bit more pricey,but still better than anyone else in the industry. Cheers Chris
  6. Yeah that's a GT Zaskar. Awesome bike.
  7. Thanks brother.
  8. Good day gents here is my cotic bfe that I have temporarily converted to XC. I think it looks hot. . .
  9. Hi hubbers I don't usually complain,but I think it was organised a bit shoddy. The waterpoints were horrible,and the pull away times weren't honoured as we were supposed to,I pulled away late. But the routes were cool,quite challenging,but nice. Chris
  10. Hi peeps, I live in Drumblade,which is on route in the race,but never done the event. Doing the 30km,so yeah,quite excited! Chris
  11. I do the tech stuff. Love it,jumps,rocks etc. It's actually amazing how the low pressure holds me,as a vetgat.
  12. Hi guys Just for the info,I weigh 158kg,and run by the 2.2bar. Tubeless snakeskin though.
  13. Hi guys Mate and I are pulling away at The big "G" tomorrow morning between 9/10. If anyone is keen,feel free to join.
  14. Hey guys, Whilst you guys are at it,you might want to give Matthew at easybike a shout. He is a Schwalbe guy,with THE BEST prices I have seen yet. Click on his site,his number should be there,and give him a shout. Awesome dude. www.easybike.co.za
  15. Hi guys, The Barn is amazing. Just always be tentative,I did a jump,mis judged,and found myself in the emergency rooms this weekend past. But that won't hold me back,I will be trying again in a week. Have been riding the Barn for about a year. Meet up with ppl that know the trail well,and they could show you some true secrets at the Barn. Hidden trail parts
