  1. http://www.juma.co.za/wp-content/uploads/JUMA_Map.pdf they used to have the profiles on the site, replaced with this "Disney" map
  2. Hi, I was touched by Edgar's story (From part time trail builder to rider). I looked for him on the batching to see where he would start (he has big dreams of doing well) and I see that he is riiiiiiight at the back ... ZB group. Can't someone put some stick about to get him bumped up so he can enjoy the race? maybe E or F group? It sounds like he's been grafting for the event and it would be a shame for him to be delayed by the inevitable bottle necks which crop up on the course.
  3. Anyone know if a route profile is going to be made available for JUMA?
  4. What group did you start in? I had this strategy to up my seeding too, hope it pays off!
  5. Yeah, prob not woth the effort. Happy with the 26er for now tough.
  6. Thanks guys, I wondered if I could replace the rear triangle?
  7. So I was looking at the geometry of my full sus Giant anthem 26er and wondered "if I change the front fork and rear assemblage would a 650b conversion be possible? Anyone know if it'll work?
  8. Hi, So I found this forum while trying to finding a seat for my kids (aged 2 and 4). I thought I'd share what I found. My challenge was a) it had to be cheap and b) it has to fit on my soft tail (most of the options I found were designed for hard tails). What I eventually went with was a Bilby Junior Front Mount (R700 from Sportmans Warehouse). http://www.sportsmanswarehouse.co.za/bilby-junior-front-seat.html#.U9jk6vmSx8E The design was to fit on the front of the bike and hover over the cross bar. However, my bike (Giant Anthem X1), and I guess many other Mountain Bikes, wont fit the mount. So I tried it on the seat post and hey presto! Now one of the kids can ride behind me and the other on my wife's bike. So as long as the kids stay under 15kg all should be good. Cheers!
