  1. The eating's not the problem, it's all the Vitamin B And besides, rather watch where you're riding, we all know how that normally ends up!
  2. More stats: Age 46; height 1.70; weight 110kg; MTB/Road; Gauteng
  3. 46 years old, 1.70m and 110kg, 38 BMI I'm officially obese!!! Let's see where I end up in January '16
  4. Have to agree, have had a long reach set since 1998!
  5. I'll give this a go as well! 1,70m and 107kg, so I've got no excuse other than being a short fat f@#k, as my good friends call me! I left school at 78kg and finished basics at 86kg, so if I can get close to 90kg again, I will be over the moon. Beer and food might be a slight complication though. Roll on 7/12
  6. Hi Tenjou Tenji, I bought a 17" (medium) sized Merida Big Seven XT edition from Cyclelab Fourways, for around R17K, with full 3X10 XT, carbon seatpost, 520 pedals and RockShox 30 Gold Air fork with Poplock. I've since bought a full sus KTM, and am looking to sell the Merida for around R13K, including 4 x Maxxis tyres that can be tubelessed, and Joe's tubeless kit (new, still in blister pack). Let me know if you're interested.
  7. I don't know enough about the differences to make sensible comments regarding the FD, but when it comes to the brake lever XT vs SLX debate, having the engagement point adjustment really takes allows each user to dial the brakes in to their preference. On my KTM, it took the dead sharp brakes with almost no feel, to sharp brakes with really nice progressive braking action. That really allows me to enjoy downhill descents much more now, and surely that's what we all cycle for: Enjoyment
