@ Patches you are on fire today bud!!!
ROFLMAO!
@ Patches Why not the Medusa?????
Did it with my Old Merida am 5000.
It’s pretty easy but you'll need a few bits and pieces.
As for a chain tensioner any old derailleur will do, I used an old LX I dug up somewhere.
At the front I suggest a proper downhill chain guide (e thirteen or similar). You could try get away with an old front derailleur set very low but if you’re serious spend the bucks.
If you know a mechanic try steal some old bits to keep the costs down.
Think me cost me R500 for the front chain guide.
Just loosen the bolt and move it lower down on the seat tube... then adjust your cable again.
Make sure that it still clears the teeth on the big chain ring though.
+1 to what he said!
Dont forget Booties to keep your toes toasty!
HOP SCHWEITZ!!!!!!!
+1 for the Ritchey!
You can't continue on the spruit but its easy enough to switch to witkoppen, right onto main, left through Baleuigh and you're there.
Shot Ricky Bobby!
I regularly hit 100KMPH on my MTB!
Does this mean I should stop riding when it rains?
What's a bonus???
If the disco biscuits are still kicking I may stop in after the Mau5.
Awesome vid!
Big up to the boys!
Dude the planets must have been aligned cause I've never had anything but excelent services from the guys.
OK I'll get a loudhailer then tjop
Sure a man of your physique knows that comment wasn't directed at you
I've got barends on my SS 29r.
Don't know if I am being mocked ... can't hear the fat bastards from the top of the hill.
Recon these would be pretty light:
- Tune prince / princess hubs
- enve xc carbon rims
- Sapim cx ray spokes
- DT Swiss alu nipples
- 2X spoke lacing
My Merida AM 5000 comes in at 12kg's
LENEGDAIRY :unsure: :unsure: :unsure: :unsure:
Bloody grammar Natzi!
I got all excited and couldn't type straight!
If it was an SS ride it would be truely LEGEN ...... wait for it ......... hope youre not lactose intolerant ..... DARY!!
we cant the deal is we gotta ride SS support only.
Renegotiate the deal!
The three of you would be fine but remember its a 4 man team pushing that icecream truck. You'll battle to find 2 other guys who can keep the momentun need for a SS up the hills.
If you're gonna push an icecream bike leave the SS at home!

Hi All, I am the guy with the new Cannondale they smashed on the head. Subsequent to the attack I have heard of multiple attacks in the Riversands area with 1 stabbing. It seems to be the same perps or group, a week ago a lone cyclist was jacked by 2 guys matching the description out towards Summit road. Avoid the area unless in very large groups!
