  1. Used a Wheels Manufacturing adaptor on my Turner - no issues.
  2. Excellent website - great to see prices! Any chance of more custom options - e.g. dropper posts on jet 9's, wheel upgrades, cockpit upgrades/options etc?
  3. And this is why the vast majority of non-cyclists regard all cyclists as selfish, arrogant and inconsiderate...
  4. You could always park in Hout Bay, ride the Atlantic Seaboard to the Start, ride the "Fire" Race and then ride back to Hout Bay...
  5. I wonder how much more climbing is involved in the following - Boyes Drive, Red Hill, Ou Kaapse Weg, Constantia Nek, Suikerbossie?
  6. Light trail bike - maybe. Enduro bike with 80mm rear travel - don't think so...

    Berg & Bush

    From talking to people who've done both (I've only done B&B) it appears that B&B is a bit more technical but that Sani is harder/longer (esp Day 2).
  8. How about uncontrolled / uncontrollable dogs off their leashes - plenty of those around in Emmarentia and Delta Park...
  9. I've had both. For the type of riding you're describing buy the Anthem - it's a great allrounder.

    Maxxis

    How about the Ardent Race at 720g. Tougher than the Ikons and better grip than the Crossmaks?
  11. Campy Zondas or Fulcrum Racing 3's - if you want to try road tubeless, get the 2-way fit. Not sure it's worth the extra moolah though...
  12. How much do you weigh? If over 90kg's don't even bother with saving even a kg on your bike - it's not worth the Rands...
  13. What a lovely problem to have - very jealous. The Ripley just looks like the dogs to me
  14. I want to replace the DT Swiss Nude shock on my Scott Genius 910 with a FOX CTD Kashima 190mm with Remote. Does anyone know who I can speak to about doing this?

    Berg and Bush 2013

    Was hotter than Barberton and Sabie - can't talk about the others.

    Oh, and get off the riding line when you are walking, goddammit!! Edit: (Particularly on Mike's Pass. I'm not saying I would have made the final bit, but I might have, and I'd like to have tried... ) Couldn't agree more - it was nice and dry this year and worth a shot - unfortunately not to be...

    Berg and Bush 2013

    It was certainly hot and windy - I really, really battled on Friday. But - the water tables were very well stocked and I wouldn't have missed it for the world. Will be back in 2014!
  18. And at about 6:30 every morning up Conrad Drive, Blairgowrie...
