  1. Ok I just rode tokai guys, it was great. Lekker tailwind down some of the trails.
  2. PM me if you lost your multitool along fish hoek main road.
  3. I may be on the extreme side of things but it took me about 4 months of weekends to get used to a new bike. So apart from the setup it could just be that the fs requires different body English to get it to do what you want. Weight a bit more forward while cornering, or a bit of a bar twist while jumping so you don't sailor. I was ready to give up but then it all clicked, without changing any setup. But a 60mm stem has no place on a #duro, and 800 for life.
  4. How many new bikes in the last few weeks, out of interests sake?
  5. If anyone found it they would hand it in at the gate.
  6. Friday Freds any day of the week, what's this world coming to.
  7. You break another rear mech, my bru?
  8. I have a solution for your dilemma, get a reign to go with the coilie!
  9. I've got a 2018 patrol, and it is heavy in comparison to other bikes. I think my build is 15kg+, but I don't feel the weight while riding and the geometry is spot-on.
  10. I cut out a roughly circular shape from cellphone screen protectors, it does the job.
  11. Do you have enough pressure in the tank?
  12. https://www.pinkbike.com/video/464575/ Vorsprung does a series of videos on suspension, if you're interested in learning more about it.
  13. These sound like situations where everyone should come to a complete stop, and either wait for the obstacle to clear or push the bike around the obstacle.
  14. We don't need the results from stage 2.
  15. I did this thing, and throw in a charger2 while you're at it
  16. I think I forgot my sarcasm tag, here it is /s.
  17. Yes but what if you can't beat the faster person and still want to win, shouldn't the faster person step aside rather?
  18. I switched from 448mm reach to 475mm, but because the seat tube angle went from 74.5 to 76.6 the reach feels the same. So if "longer" is paired with a steeper STA it can feel the same, or feel cramped if you were to size down (while seated).
  19. Do you just need the eyelet replaced? this thing:
  20. As with all of these bottle cage accessory mounts check that it fits the frame first... It's gonna raise the bottle up a bit and it might rub against the shock or top tube, depending on the frame (or bottle). Also mine never came supplied with bolts and had to scavenge for a bolt with a small head that could fit inside the cage. I'm just saying it's not a guaranteed solution for every bike.
