V18

Hi! Seeing your replies now. I'm trying out a msc zion first. Got it second hand. Not the exact fit we want. Bit high for the stoker right now. If the bug bites... Mercer will be the first one I contact.

Just bought one second hand. Going to do this. And take her for a full service ASAP.

Maybe phone metro and ask what the case number was and pickup time location. They usually take some history from bystanders.

Sell bike. Buy threaded bb bike. School fees paid. Or get one of them screw in versions by praxis or Endurobearing

BB type. Maak of breek vir 'n creaky-mccreakington commuter bike. My commuter has two jobs. Get me from A to B.... Without making a noise.

"Sorry for being a dwis. What can I say. The scorpion stings. The mamil bites." cluster B stuff right there.

This thread always makes me feel better. Side note. Opinions on the corona virus? Plenty of info out there. Just trawling for fellow hubber opinions.

This thread gave me leptospirosis. Knowing that trollface thermophile personally, I could only imagine him replying to a pre-angina mamil whilst eating ramen with the one hand and the other down his underwearless boardshorts. Take it from me mamil. Chill. You are burning through precious cardiovascular lifespan. Meanwhile thermopilies is watching naruto music videos and playing with his cats. Enjoy the race tomorrow and whooosssaaaaaa.

These bikes are too much for some trails in the Western Cape. Let's chat here.

You ous are using up all the Internets.

Ask the quary guys to dump a few buckets of boulders down the face of a steepish hill. Roll a few boulders about. Create a deathtrap trail with no soil to manecure. Getting exited writing this. I'm no avid technical rider but I love sh*#ting myself for a new trail. Except Ruperts folley for some weird reason. I actually shat myself there.

Anyone know of someone harbouring a white elephant full sus mtb tandem (xl/s) in a garage somewhere?

Good luck man. Some bleeding can be good for wound healing. As long as it doesn't form a clot in the space. Which it shouldn't at this stage. Holding thumbs.

This guys is the ultimate troll.

Kali protective brought out a new breathable full face. I really think breathable full face helmets make sense and is slowly creeping into the norm Most face plants happen when you don't expect it. (Not always after you scream STRAAAVVAAA, spray paint your teeth silver and WITNESS MEEEE.)

100% this. Medschool seems to be a new candle to the moths for cluster B personalities. Most Dr's are there for the real thing. To enjoy working for people that need help. Some just see it as some form of perverted hierarchical social ladder.

Just contacted Worcester Hosp. Nope. No intern Dr D Lackay Basson. Most psychiatric patients (with grandiose delusions) typically identify with being either Dr's/lawyers/Dominees. Don't ask me why. It's just an observation.

I'll see if he is in the Tygerberg/Stellenbosch Campus group. Doubt it. Antisocial/narcissistic personality disorders know no bounds. If he is. I have bad news. Scrapped from the roll for life if caught catching on criminalities like this. What a waste of 6+3y.

Hi knowledgeables. What is the import tax/duties on a bicycle frame?

Look for a rockshox Yari. All you want.

Honestly the weight of the bike is a non factor. The geometry/contact points/tyres/wheels/suspension/brakes far outweighs (pun intended) the weight of the bike. Obviously within reason. Pedalling a 20kg ebike with the motor off is a good example. I for one enjoy my bike being on the porky side. If any one of us has to lose weight, it's me! Also. The feeling of dampened chatter due to the significant unsprung weight makes the suspension do amazing things. Like butter. Obviously as a Clydesdale a 17kg enduro rig feels like nothing to me. But if you're a 55kg lady with limited watts, dropping the weight significantly may play quite the role. When my wife is done incubating our second boy I'm going to start building up a bike for her RIDICULOUSLY light. Just to see if it makes a difference to her.

Buy the dartmoor thunder rims on TrailTech. I'm liking everything about them so far.

Just bought a buddies ribbon. Waiting for the right spring. First impressions are that of amazing small bump sensitivity. Officially excited for 2020.

I would only try those green vittoria tyre inserts. Not only do they protect the rim/tyre but can get you home as a run flat option. Had foamo which worked fine. Trying heavier casings for now. If I hulksmash a rim too soon to my liking I'll go back to inserts.

To summarise all above. Ditch press fit. Go threaded.
