  5. Which Constatia Kloof which Area?
  6. Yes I find the 3 pack offer from CRC is excellent I use XT chains and at around 180 rand a pop from CRC really cant beat it for value for money
  7. No but we did on Sunday but it was not planned our route we were exploring ended with the only option of portaging down into the garden's had a quick spin round and made a quick exit
  8. Koppies behind Silverstar and Botanical gardens some evil technical stuff there. The monster is a good one if you want distance can use breedts as well
  9. Shimano Warranty on XT should be 2 years
  10. Ridge line above the gardens
  11. Did some exploring with Eraser today was great fun ended up doing quite a bit of portage but also found some nice tracks Here are some pics of the tracks taken from our ride. We got a bit lost and ended up portaging into the Botanical gardens
  12. Ok 6 30 it is. If its pouring with rain we give it a miss have a few guys who said I must let them know so will sms them now to see if they are in
  13. The Recon SL was the one thing on my previous bike I never changed I just could not find a need it's an excellent fork.
  14. Just putting out a feeler would anyone be interested in riding tom (Sunday morning) weather permitting. Does not have to be a long ride even 3 hours or so is fine leave at 7 and be back at the Gym around 10 to 10-30. we can just make a route up as we go depending on time and speed of group.
  15. I think 2.2 would be a good starting point ride try adjust to what you feel works for you. Dont be surprised if you take a while to get used to lower pressures and may want to run a bit higher at first.
  16. If its not raining or storming going to ride tonight will go by the gym car park around 16-45 .
  17. I like that
  18. I carry the following Multitool with chainbreaker Rear Hanger Cable Ties Tubeless puncture kit normal tube patches bombs and co inflator pump 1 gear cable inner tube and gator tyre levers chain link also 2 cleat bolts as above chain lube Cash
  19. Shame Guy how long untill you can ride?
  20. Yes was great morning really enjoyed the ride and company. Couple of things surprised me I underestimated distance to teak thought it would be about 23km to get there so the 31 or 33 was a surprise. Also leaving at 7 is too late if we want to do a full loop of teak and get back at a reasonable time we need to leave no later than 6. With only doing one side of Teak plus the one section being closed it was still a 73km ride so with a full loop of Teak it will be a 90km round trip coming back on road throght the cradle and up past mulderdrift quarry. Last thing is we need to put a 20kg camelbak on Fowlstart to slow him down on the climbs
  21. Great stuff another friend of mine just phoned to say he is in and he might bring his friend as well so thats 8 of us so far. Pray for some nice riding weather
  22. Dont all shout at once no one want to ride tom?
