  1. You only adding 10mm it's very little so it's not gonna change a huge amount,degree wise it's not gonna be that big,I'm guessing half a degree maybe,maybe 1 but that is most probably extreme. Don't think you gonna feel a big dif in the climbing.
  2. Yea I have a 29er trail bike and the local distributors are no interested in bringing in agressive 29er tires so I will have to shop oversees.
  3. That amount of change is not gonna change the ego that much can,will make it slightly slacker which will make it handle better on the downs.
  4. The orange and yellow looks wicked,you got to stand out from the crowd.
  5. Hahaha by the looks of things lots of guys are having the nose slightly down.
  6. Have a look at Kulhavy his is quite low down so it give him more weight on the front wheel for climbing.
  7. Thing is all suspensions are different.
  8. Just want to see what some of the hubbers are doing regarding their saddles. I ride a full suss 29er bike and people are saying that your saddle should be level, I would think that it would level for a hardtail but with a full suss slightly nose down to compensate for the sag. What saddles are you guys using?
  9. No I have not, want one of your helmets but for the price there are a lot of other helmets that are cheaper as good and good looking. Have a look at the review that was done on helmets on the hub and you will see the 661 EVO,Bell Super and POC in a shoot out, and for almost 1k the less than the POC the 661EVO comes out tops. The same goes for sunglasses,I think the POC is overpriced compared to competitors with similar technology. Hats of to POC for being the first to bring MIPS to helmet design,I just think that they are really appealing to the higher end of the market and not us lower down the pecking order.
  10. Arch EX should be fine you don't weigh as much as some of us big ass guys,I would of thought the crest would be fine but all their rims have weight limits on.Maybe look at some of the guys riding the Crest and ask them how much they weigh and what sort of riding they do.
  11. So you will just pay Vat.
  12. If it's just a frame what are the duty prices like.
  13. So it can be done.
  14. Arch is strong but not as wide as the Flow,can't really say if the Flow would be any stronger than the Arch. Looked at a couple of rims coming out and they all going wider now and one thing I found is that the width makes the wheel more stable and you can go with lower pressures. I know how you feel but go look at some reviews of both and make your mind up from there. All I can say is if you go FlowEX you will not regret it.
  15. Sorry Bullet I forgot about my kit so looking at more like it will be+- 100kg or slightly over
  16. Went with Flow EX on Novatec hubs,damn are they bomb proof,makes your tire look bigger than the size states.I weigh between 95-98kg it's up and down all the time,gonna put some Hopes on when I got some bucks. I when twitch brass nipples and double butted Pillar spokes. Gained about 150-200 grams from my previous wheelset.
  17. These Mondraker are so damn niiiiice!
  18. Only place I know close by is Holla trails in Ballito,but traffic is a pain with all the roadworks.
  19. Yea sad state of affairs,as I said earlier wish someone would bring in Orange bikes,but if Felt couldn't cut it don't think Orange will.
  20. Carbon 110,they don't have a 29er HT anymore so maybe they going plastic and 29er
  21. Wish someone would Bring in Orange bikes.
