  1. Agree fully, after this should go for the classics or head back to MTBiking. One can still hope for a bit of a sparkle though.
  2. Im a fan what can i say, and i got him for 10 points i think. He should get me some points in the TT, some puncher stages and will hopefully land in the top 10 GC, TBH i never knew he wasnt BMC's main guy until it was too late.
  3. Im Banking on Cuddles and Uran to start making me some points soon as just about everyone has Quintana.
  4. My wife is 5'1" and rides an XS ladies avalanche, she barely rides but loves her bike. Bought it new 5 years ago and has about 200km on it.
  5. Sure it was the same saddle, you get the normal/K:ium and carbon. Big price difference between the 3
  6. They should be sold with every rigid fork.
  7. I ride a Rigid with the FSA bars (bought second hand). You need to treat carbon and alloy bars the same way (check for any where, small knicks ect.).
  8. I ride FSA and they are great, i felt a fair difference from the alloy bars. Would love a ENVE bar, those things are so drool worthy.
  9. Eish thats a *** one, see if you can claim from insurance as theft from your property.
  10. Its not stupid, it is a choice. If he has the time,money and patience then why not.
  11. Never have many issues to be honest, been pretty lucky i suppose. But then i am normally the buyer and not the seller and i stick to what i say. Rouxtjie, A thousand posts is a tad much, i do look at how many posts they have and i think 250 plus is usually a decent marker. For instance you wouldn't sell to me and i have been here for 4.5 years and have contributed where i feel i can, limited knowledge and all. It is your choice though, just hope i don't want/need something you are selling.
  12. Everyone drives like a chop at some stage. He has apologized so move on, as for the *** comments made, you people have issues and need to move on in life and you probably the worst drivers of the lot as well.
  13. A few pictures and rough estimate pricing would help.
  14. https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/101045-fuel-ex-99-project-one-xt-mint-condition-warran/ I would try swing this guy into your budget.

    Slow Poke

    Im a horrible runner so i know i need to save my energy for that. Also have a bad knee so need to be strong, as soon as i get lazy it starts to hurt and i start to walk/limp. Never nice to see the field getting away when you have fought so hard to stay up there.

    In a race the only time HR matters is when it is stopped. Focus on how you feel as adrenaline and all the others around you help in dragging you further and faster. like everyone else, save yourself for the run, you will lose or can gain the most time there.

    Cricket......

    Swap Adams for Harris and bring Bouch in for Mcmillan and that would be a team to watch for sure. Just think Adams was more like Tahir in his consistency. Would consider having Ashwell Prince in there instead of McMillan
  18. I ride with a 36 up front (26" hardtail) and struggle to keep up on long flats with guys on normal gearing, maybe im just week and cant spin fast enough.

    Cricket......

    We have never had a quality spinner in test, what we could do with is someone who can keep it tight (to keep some pressure off our quicks) and can bat a bit. We can develop Duminy in the meantime to be a quality all rounder. I would prefer playing Abbot at this rate, or give Piedt a go and see.
  20. If you in two minds and cash is not a big thing i say do it. You will learn a couple things quite quickly especially the right line through rocky sections.
  21. It depends on you in my opinion, I went rigid and love it but i am building my 29er with a squishy fork. If you plan on doing long rides you better get used to it as it really does take its toll. Like Rouxtjie said it can be quicker on some tech, i find quick sweeping single track to be faster as well. The problem comes in that it does make you more tired. If you have two bikes definitely have one with a rigid. Give it a bash though, it does make things more interesting.

    Flat track the way i have seen it play, if they get stuck into any of our spinners we will have to go back to the seamers. We should have been playing a spinner with proper holding capabilities. Its time we start making our top 6 score runs and relying on a 7th so that we can have the option of an extra bowler on difficult pitches.

    I would play the extra bowler at the current state of our team, Dale has been injury prone of late, Philander has picked up niggles here and there and Morkel can always hurt himself with his frame. In test bowlers win the game and if you are a bowler short you are always going to struggle.

    Good team, although i would look at another spinner if the pitch is conducive to it and would play De Kock down the order. He has a lot on his shoulders as keeper already and he needs to gain some more experience. Amla or Faf (can really graft for his runs) to open.
