  1. WTF,finaly registered, but I am on the waiting/query list? How the $%#& does that work, all the entries gone in 26 minutes?
  2. No sense in jumping to conclusions here. There has been some diffrences between Patrick and Richard, more than that I can not comment. (Simply because I do not know) This has been on the cards for a little while now and is common knowledge in Maritzburg. Patrick is NOT a victim of his own sucess, he built up an amazing company that produces some of the best bikes in the world with the support of an awesome team. Morewood was a partnership, in this case it appears as they were going in diffrent directions and reached a point were it was no longer reconsilable. Very sad, Patrick was the creative genius behind the brand and without him at the helm the brand just wont be the same.
  3. I did SANI this year on my Zula and it handled like a dream. Its a fast XC bike that climbs like a goat and doesn't skip a beat on fast descent's, tricky switch backs or technical single track. I have had a Giant Trance X2 and a Specialized Epic Carbon, they don't even come close to the Zula.
  4. WTF, It smells like dog food and gives you a rash!!!! Sounds dodge. NO thanks I will rather stick with my tried and tested 32GI.
  5. Moved from Specialized Epic Carbon to Morewood, best move I have ever made. Awesome bike running SRAM (My preference over Shimano) Try and take all the bikes you are keen on for a test ride an then make your decision. Good Luck
  6. I am using Maxxis Crossmarks (Front and Back). Great for hardpack and good rolling resistance and thats about it. I used Kenda Excavators before and loved them. I am also in market for some new tyres for Sani2C, considering the Maxxis High Rollers UST.
  7. Search the hub, probably the one of the most popular threads. BTW its called 32GI
  8. Greg Minaar Racing in PMB and Adrenaline Cycles in Howick.
  9. Keen on some kit for SANI2C when and how do we place orders?
  10. Anyone know what happened at the supposed 15:30 CSA press conference
  11. One monumetal cock up, no Metro cops or marshals manning intersections. Problems started in Soweto with taxi's and got progressivly worse. Hugely embarrasing riders seriously pissed off!!!!!
  12. Here's one for you Leekie: XT Crankset from my LBS R3500.00 (No Serious) XT Crankset from CRC R1721.26 It's a no brainer to me!!!
  13. Andrew was seriously pi$$ed off. Sorry Mr Till, but Charles Dickens quotes are not going to cut it.
  14. I bet the sponsors for the Tour Of SA are a little nervous right now.
  15. I missed Spercycling last night, has any one got the low down on SA champs?
  16. Thanks Bubblesm for the detailed report. It makes for some disconcerting reading, what an utter shambles. Three questions: 1. Where is the official response from CSA? 2. Are the results valid? 3. What horrors can we expect for the Tour of SA? $#^&^%# AMATEUR NIGHT catch a wake up CSA!!!!
  17. Welcome to the Morewood family. Looks awesome.
  18. Thanks for the advice Drongo.
  19. If you are coming to KZN, why not ditch the road bike for some mountain biking? Giba Gorge is a good option but Karkloof, outside Howick best damn riding in South Africa.
  20. Thanks for all the advice. Just a bit worried about chips that may lead to peeling.
  21. I have a black Fox fork that that doesn't do my new frame any justice. Has anyone every tried this, any advice, what paints to use, clear coat etc.... Apparently peeling is a major issue if you don't use the right paint. Any advice?
  22. What a joke, he should be stripped of his TDF title and given the two year mandatory ban.
  23. Hope for sure, running my red ones on white American Classic rims. Awesome hubs, you won't regret it. (Got mine from CWC Online at a good price) They really look good on the Zula.
  24. Thanks for the laugh
  25. Congrats, Great choice, I love mine best decision I have ever made. As a matter of interest why did you go with XT and not SRAM? Personal choice?
