negative, i did try tho, i think i saw it when i arrived at tokai tho

coastin - Zion I http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrvvDnFGfjY

went to tokai yesterday, only remembered some of the things everyone told me (momentum is your friend etc.) and it was very helpful, i also put a shorter stem on my bike and that also made a difference, the only time i crashed was when my foot came off the pedal on some jeeptrack, got a nice roasty and messed up my brake, which is a bit annoying. thanks for all the advise, it really genuinely made a difference

thanks for all the advise. i think for the next couple of rides i will leave some sense of self preservation at home, for confidence sake

does anyone have theme music that they play in their head while descending(pretending they are in a DH vid)?

just watch some jackass when you have the urge to watch people hurt themselves

Where can I get a ball pressure pump?

just finished cleaning all the drool off my keyboard . that ndiza is one of the awesomest bikes i have ever seen

i got a giant vt 2, but i am trying to get hold of a teocali and then eventually a morewood ndiza, i ride in tokai and rhodes mem occasionally, i want to be faster around corners, learn how to do jumps and drop offs.

I don't really know what to say but, anyway I am very slow downhill, and i think the idea of this thread is to have a whole bunch of post telling me(and others) that falling is overrated and if do this e.g. ignore the small rocks, but don't watch for the big ones, watch for the line next to the big rock. also please don't post dumb things, or if you do make sure to have it with some useful information

you know when you have a get rich quick plan and then see an ad for it 10 minutes later...

if cape town try factory cycles

there are good looking bikes and there are bad looking bikes, then there are ones that you want a poster of more than you want your next breath... my favorites are the giant Faith and the trek session, even though i don't do either DH or FR

think about something else on climbs, and make sound effects on the descents

wait what? is the terminology wrong? sorry but you should know what i mean most cranks are attached to the front triangle, not something in the middle

i really wanted to be able to properly explain it to you, so i will...witchcraft

thanks, before i was like "maestro is very cool and the way the BB moves on the mongoose is strange" now buying a bike just became a lot easier

to start off i don't know if there are even ten but, wateva there are some many ways of making a rear wheel go up and down but there is only one best way. think of lightness, stiffness, goodness at taking small/big bumps, if the crank stays where it is and any other things that rear suspension does what i want to know is: best for XC best for trail best for all mountain best for free ride best for down hill here are SOME vids of what there is to offer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IdrIAfb-is don't forget kona, trek, merida, specialized and anything else you know of

thanks for all the advice

Pakhuis to Sanddrif Boskloof to Algeria Sanddrif to Algeria Pakhuis to Algeria Kromrivier to Algeria i think i am only doing 3 of these(dunno which ones tho) and there is also a 30km ride thrown in as well

i've had a sinus infection since june and have finally had it removed. this means i am super unfit and am going to cederberg hiking at the end of november. I've been told that i need to get fit otherwise it's just not fun. so, obviously walking up and down mountains is going to help but, i was wondering what else i can do, is spinning a good idea? got any other one? i know running is very good but i would like to avoid it if i can

according to wikipedia and wiki anwsers the density of carbon fiber is 2.8 g/cm3 and aluminum is 2.70 g·cm−3 but carbon is much stronger this is probably very unhelpful unless you can find some find of industry standard for finding how hard you need to hit the tree before something breaks

where can i but the movie TT3D?

factory cycles has good prices ( if you are in cape town) i was very interested in a new one because the frame looks like a great building block to put lots of cool stuff on but someone told me in a very technical and complicated way that if i want a new soft tail i must not spend under 15 grand. cant remember what the technical and complicated reasons were but they sounded ligit. he said something about getting a new rear shock that fits, but isin't designed for that king of suspension and then doesn't work properly, or sumthing.

rather get a new fork?
