Sports science right? Do they have good mtb setup experience?

Thanks will check the link out, thanks

For social wknd riding only, mainly downhill singletrack riding. Is a professional bike fit vital? Who is the best peeps for this job? Whats potential costing to setup bike and fit me

Welldone on dropping the 20kgs, awesome. Not lekker on the roids tho, eish bru stay off the bike till thats sorted. Well il keep u updated on what this norco can do, in my limited skillset hahahaha

Even my 3 yr old told me thrice today, this bike is nice lol Thanks man

Thanks, many safe miles. Excited to take it for spin tomorrow

Thanks buddy Il be waiting for your Norco review, i will be doing it aswell

Yeah, isnt my first choice but she is a stunner. Thanks gents and thanks for all the help deciding. Will give review on her once i take it out

We need a pic hey

I only had the grey option, glad i settled for the FS1 Knew the bike aint light, but feels heavy than what i expected.

She has arrived..... Need to setup suspension and seat adjustment

Well, i called up couriers to check on it, after already checking online lol. Arrival ETA is tomorrow, supposedly. Just hope it comes, else its only Friday. Wait is torture, like a kid waiting for his birthday [emoji1787]

Won't happen this year as most stores were sold out on ST this year, or atleast the entry level Stumpjumpers

Just a copy is fine, no need to certify

Full carbon, new for R40k, thats a great deal! was a lockdown special hey

got it - advice well received.

Thread reboot-because anything possible on 2020. So anybody have more experience with these pedals. I have shimano 520 spds but looking at these as an option

Lots to consider You want new you can go Titan cypher,Pyga hyrax,Norco Fluid, silverback stratos,Spez stumpjumper (new one will be released probably November).Trek recently had entry model fuels for R39k. Do you want 100mm fork travel or 100mm+? Twin shock lockout system or doesnt matter? Dropper post is vital ensure it has or allow budget for it. Got a decent budget, google the bikes you think look the nicest to you and then read up about them. Try to go test ride all the bikes you interested in, will do wonders in helping to decide.

Luckily you still lived to tell the story. Damn idiot, why ride away ....geez the coward

Very smart , i like thanks for the pic

So you didnt enjoy the narrower tyre? Im going to do same with old tube and wrap it for chain slap protection

Looking good man, hows the thicker tyres? Very grippy. Folks seems to say get narrower rear tyres helps alot and keep the thicker infront. You used cable ties for your chain stay rubbers? Check this link https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/88646-diy-chainstay-protector/

Did you just straight swop out (besides for the washes)the rotors and new bigger pads too?

How is your bike going though? Happy with it? Pics man , pics

Lots of my research suggest that need bigger rear brakes or maybe just upgrade the pads. Once i test it out i will review if needed, im 77kg so lets see how it does. I do want solid brakes though without that brake fade i experienced on my hardtail rockhopper. As for tokens, no idea what they are or used for lol.
