  1. I got the ztr 355 with Hope pro 2 hubs. Using the stans yellow rim tape. I hit plenty sh!t really hard at sani and have not lost any pressure and still run true. I thought the noisy Hopes would bug me but they let anyone ahead of you know your are there and makes passing less of a gamble on single track.
  2. If they answer the phone....
  3. It is not impossible but I suggest you find a really good aluminium welder. Look in your yellow pages or find someone who does mag wheel repairs or something. The only problem is that it will tend to "pull" from the excessive heat required to weld it. (it may warp the frame slightly when it starts to cool) It may also create a weak point at the weld and in time may crack there. I MAY sound negative but try it, keep a look out for cracks and ride it till it breaks or till you upgrade properly. mho
  4. Aah cool cos none of the flower shops and butchers have any....
  5. Anyone know where I can get a spare?
  6. I agree with you Jackes1754. It is clearly noticeable from the "should I or should'nt I" expression on his face. From what I gather the latter option was discarded - as well as the previous night's dinner.... I reckon it is sort of during - perhaps the expression can be put down to a so called "mock charge" or if you prefer "turtling". The peeper is touching "shammy"
  7. It's made in Japan, i heard they call it the "sprinter"
  8. It covers half the "For sale" block. I know it's a charity thing but i don't want to follow them on twitter. I can't seem to close it on the screen. Help.
  9. Above is my two team mates at the 2008 Sani non stop. They are both hubbers. PM me for my bank details and once I have received R1000 in "donations" I will release their names.......
  10. 15k on some potent chemicals will improve your time quite a bit
  11. Check the angle of your saddle too....it might be putting too much pressure on the area between your foofenyol and ballas. Try set it a little "nose down" and see if it helps.
  12. Ja there are two actually. Others battle their way up Breedts on their Scotts and Yetis
  13. Ja CAAD4, show us your Chumba.
  14. Excuse me for stating the obvious but last time i rode the cradle route there were road works being done to widen the roads. More road = More space for everyone. Problem solved.
  15. Sintered metal is what is used in most racing car clutches so i'd imagine thats pretty good although i wouldn't even know what my pads are made of........ organic sounds cool if you bonk in the middle nowhere you can lie down under a tree and smoke your pads
  16. Ja ask OPC about his R89000 water bill...
  17. Start slow, stretch when finished. Right or wrong thats what i do....
  18. If its clicking at the same point in the pedal stroke maybe the big chain ring is touching the front derailler under big load. Is it still there after washing the bike?
  19. If you want a good laugh on your morning ride you can always follow OPC on his way to work. Watching his blubbery ass from behind looks like two pigs fighting in a sugar sack.
  20. And from a distance Gnarly looks like a large group of riders...
  21. Gnarly does. Ask him.
  22. Where is the working shop? I got a Rox thats in need of attention, got about 2000km from last service.
  23. Calves are genetic... if you don't have any now i suggest implants...
  24. I hope this doesn't mean that she thinks she can start ramming down more pies now!
  25. Don't often use them but if I do have them on me i take one just about the time when i'm starting to wonder "why do i put myself through this sh!t on purpose?" which is probably too late anyway.....
