  1. Hudson, well done, many (myself included) are simply jealous of your ability at your age. I must point out some inaccuracies in your story though... in bold above. At your age it's OK to help some female folk, even if it takes time. Hell, don't we all wish we could do that. (At 73 I mean) To hell with the results, you know you did it (The Argus I mean )
  2. 4-kin skelms. Thassall.
  3. It would be sufficient to put the pic of his wet panties on twitter. You did take one? Surely?
  4. This here hub has gone to the dogs. Three pages and no demands for pics? OK, Vetseun tried , but that is just not good enough. Wassup folks? Or is the OP the girlfriend of Chuck Norris and I have just committed the faux pas of the decade?
  5. Dankie. Nou moet Meneer Smoove net die hele storie uitpak.....
  6. Thanks Rouxtjie, now you have my attention! What is Smoove if it's not oil and not a wax-solvent mix. Kom nou man, uit met dit.....
  7. Relax. I asked what makes Smoove better than other oil-based chain lubes. I asked that because I am really interested and would like to know if there is a lube that has the benefits of oil without the mess factor. You went off at a tangent about a variety of issues. What makes Smoove better than other oil-based chain lubes? Simple question. Oh, and please let's stay with facts (for example: it has such and such an additive, etc) Thanks
  8. Thanks for your response, unfortunately simply putting "....fact" after a sentence doesn't make it so. Why is oil better? ummm, because it's a lube? Oh, and if you prefer Smoove, I have absolutely no problem with that. Pray tell, how do you measure the wear of the chain? I presume you had a large, random sample of chains? Under identical conditions, with the only variable being the "lube" ? It's a personal thing, use what works for you.
  9. Clearly then, it's the thinking man's lube?
  10. If you can chew gum and walk in a straight line, you can do it. There are a few tricks, but they are all covered in online tutorials aplenty. Good luck.
  11. That's very considerate of you.
  12. Snobs of course nails it... The one of a kind customized seat is covered in the finest chocolate brown alligator and absolutely beautiful. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kkpHmrATuck/U1psomEASyI/AAAAAAAAzKw/PCSuQ3bg_1g/s1600/24k-gold-extreme-mountain-bike-5.jpg I agree that it's quite beautiful, and furthermore that this misshapen turd perched precariously upon a gilded pillar is a poignant metaphor for America--and if you need me to hold your hand and walk you through that metaphor, the gilded pillar is central and south America, the turd is the USA, and your ass is Canada.
  13. ???..because it was built for me?
  14. What makes Smoove any different from/better than any other oil-based lube ?(I don't consider solvent-wax blends to be lubes) Anybody have some facts? I'm interested in facts, not opinions of recent converts. Seriously.
  15. Add sealant through the valve stem? To get the tyre off you'll need to get both beads into the middle of the rim (i.e. the lower part) and then proceed from there. Of hoe?
  16. I haven't read the entire thread, but if you're buying Rapha kit why are you whining about the tax? Image costs..
  17. There's an eccentric inventor in Velddrif who was doing something similar a few years back..
  18. Apologies, I thought you were yoking, really. Just use a sealant. And ride. There's more crap talked about tubeless and sealant than could ever be good for cycling.
  19. It's a yoke. 1. Mr Tsai is pulling your chain. 2. I tried telling the story to my Crossmarks and they gave me a the usual non-plussed look. The last delamination I can remember seeing was a Bontrager 29r tyre in 2007.....and zzzippp...open goes the can of worms. I'm outta here
  20. post deleted
  21. I wouldn't know a Pinarello from a Chinarello from a Gonococcal infection, but I do think you should consider re-doing the punctuation in that post before people start getting ideas about your searching habits....
  22. Damn, I walked right into that....trick question obviously. Real cyclists stopped using QR when they shifted to 29 27.5 Older, slower, dommer.
