  1. no they stripped it. i just took headset out and dropout off and dropped it with them.
  2. my knees went blue this morning.....so the Western Cape was chilly this morning still, but ja i know what you mean.... i was actually a bit of a pansy and spent very little time on my bike this winter, but oh man it is nice to get my engine revving again.
  3. ermmmm...if i remember correctly for the colors (the orange is alot brighter in real life) it was 350, and the other frame (Matt black) was 250.
  4. Castlecote in parow East - epoxy powder coated two of my old beat up hard tail frames, i am very happy with the result.
  5. Hi all, thought i would contribute. I regularly get sick, mainly colds that become respiratory infections, after years of trying things this is what works for me, below is the protocol i follow if i have an active sinus infection (multi colored mucus), if i dont clear that it will generally lead to ear infection and bronchitis. i use a nasal rinse kit twice a day.....(i use it 2-3 times per week when healthy, this is one of the best changes for my sinuses) then i have linctagonc and acc200 in the morning and evening. and quite a high dose of both septogard and ViralGuard. finally 2 squirts of this into each nostril. *Disclaimer - I am not a doctor nor chemist, i just have found that this works for me.
  6. Thanks I just did.
  7. over this weekend I stumbled upon a neat little workshop run by an enthusiastic and friendly gentleman who by his outstanding service has ensured I will return if I need more mechanical assistance. contact and address below http://brentkellies....!visit-us/c12tf

  11. Cool vid, I need to step it up.... the only time I have slept next to my bike is when it was in my room because I was too lazy to put it in the garage.
  12. my 1st "restarted" cycling bike was a makro special. 1st wheelie off a pavement broke the saddle, fell and buckled the wheel. as the people that braai with their fingers say. "Goedkoop is duur koop"

  14. as for motivation, spend a couple of moments on thinking of those who cannot live an active lifestyle. think of the homeless, the sick, the deformed and the handicapped, and those who were able to choose to get up early for that ride, but now for whatever reason cannot. There is an old homeless cripple that begs in the road near where i work. That old man motivates me. My post comes off as depressing but that is not my intention. As a collective us cyclists are some of the luckiest people alive.
  15. Rule #6 // Free your mind and your legs will follow. Your mind is your worst enemy. Do all your thinking before you start riding your bike. Once the pedals start to turn, wrap yourself in the sensations of the ride – the smell of the air, the sound of the tires, the feeling of flight as the bicycle rolls over the road.
  16. hello all I started out as this. but then my owner carelessly left me within the blast radius of a Gamma bomb, the next morning i awoke as this........ i broke through the front doors of my riders office and threw chairs togther and chilled on the make shift couch........ i am actually not in a rage all the time......but i am DAMN fun to ride.
  17. are they in the bike shop that you moonlight in? if so then well done, If I cannot find one in salty air land maybe you can post one to me? I will post you a beer, surrounded by dry ice obviously.
