  1. You are a legend! Good on you! I hope the owner comes forward
  2. Hey skaap I bought an AR4 in January. Love it to bits! Thats not the price, the SRP is R31999 and shops will give you a discount if you ask nicely enough. My 2 cents. I love the felt. It got a great write up in last months bicycling magazine where it was termed the 'do it all'. I do triathlon every now and again and the AR4 was created with this in mind. Remember with the Felt, its tour proven!
  3. whats nbmc?
  4. so whens the next one? Would dig to join up
  5. You confusing terms. Mountain bike encompasses trail bike and a XC (cross country bike) An XC bike will have less travel and a more racier and aggressive geometry whereas the angles on a trail bike are more upright and relaxed. A trail bike will also have more travel as it is designed to be more at home on the technical stuff, whereas an XC bike is designed mainly for speed.
  6. I am so bored of this 26 vs 29 debate. Its like petrol vs diesel debate. Yes 29ers are quicker, but not by that much that every1 must now go and buy a 29er. For the average bloke its gonna save you 5 mins over 100k's, is that really worth it? Personally Im a petrolhead and couldnt care about the small savings of a diesel because I love the sound of an engine screaming. Same way was I love the ride, look and feel of my morewood zula. If you are a pro then you have no choice because the other guys do have an advantage over you so you would be a fool not to. There will come a time when I buy a 29er but for the time being Im more than happy just to be out riding. People with 29ers make it as if you cant even ride a 26er anymore. Remember why you ride peeps, to get out in the fresh air, to keep healthy and to have fun. You can do both just as well on a 26 or a 29 inch bike. LikeI said though, if you a pro you need to go 29er.

    @ Motorist Another thing, you chose to take pics on your phone while driving, this too is illegal! The cyclists are breaking the law but so are you! Its all relative in the end. You think using your phone while driving is ok, they think riding in the traffic is ok. Neither are correct in this situation. GRanted you wanted to expose something, but you did that by doing something illegal.

    I have mixed emotions on this one. Firstly I am a member of Club100 and a proud one at that. I must admit though, there have been times when we have ben riding (as a club) down busy roads (not the cradle in these pics) and riders still feel the need to ride 2/3 abreast and swerve into the lane etc etc etc. I was talking to a non cycling friend and together neither of us could understand why a cyclist would do that and not ride single file and keep left. In fact I think mototrists would be far more patient and respectefull towards cyclists if they were to ride single file and keep left. Cylists do have a right to use the road, but there are conditions to this, and when in big groups single file and keeping left is one of them. There are times when 2 abreast is permitted, on a road with one helluva shoulder. This war will go on forever as long as cyclists think they own the road and ride the way they do. I have'nt even started on the guys that jump red lights and stop streets!!! If everyone were to start riding single file, keep left and stop at red lights and stop streets I think the situation would change drastically.
  12. hahahahaaahahahaha

  14. My guess is the pedals I had the same problem with my MTB, as soon as I sttop up and gave power ''creak/click' Make sure the lock nuts on the pedals are well tight

  18. A buddy of mine is looking to rent a road bike for argus. He says hes been to a few shop in CPT but they all booked for the race. Does anyone know where he could find a bike to rent?
  19. Cant be clean with broken bottles!
  20. @tombeej There goes your theory!
  21. Ive heard there is a supply problem. Try Achtar at Solomons Cycles in JHB Woodmead. He may be able to make a plan as he couriers stuff all over the show. Im coming down next weekend and I could stick it in my case. Does'nt chain reaction have?
