  1. Santa came a bit early this year, I got this!
  2. SRAM sounds like a train but fly like a plane.
  3. Very true, i'm back on my zula but test ride a cannondale flash 1 alloy today, man its a nice bike. It feel so much better than my previous 29er, and the dale is not even carbon.
  4. I had a full XTR groupset on a bike I recently sold, I now have SRAM X9 and the shifting feels way better on the SRAM. Maybe its because its new, on the other hand the XTR groupo was only 6months old.
  5. I'm also new to the BB30 thing, just bought a cannondale and thought you must have a BB30 crank? So can you use a regular crank with a BB30 adapter?
  6. I Would go for the spes, just because it looks the coolest.
  7. Wonder why you would say that.....
  8. Dont know, what brake lever do you use?
  9. When I ride without cleats it feels like i'm going to fall any moment. You have much more control with cleats.
  10. I dont have a 29er but this would be my comment aswell.
  11. The shop where you bought it should sort it out, if you have a valid case.
  12. How much R for the Enve wheels (correct spelling?)? I hear they are super expensive? What is the problem with the tape, I never ever had any problems with my tubeless tape.
  13. Some people clearly do not understand the question, the question was not if you still like your 29er I bought a carbon 29er hardtail (not a noname brand), top of the range spec. Sold it about a month ago and I dont regret it one moment. I'm back on my morewood Zula. 29er did not make a difference whatsoever speed and timewise and and it was HARD. I know its a hardtail but some people told me that a 29er hardtail will be between a 26 hardtail and 26er dual, BS its hard!!. This is just what I experienced my 2c and will not go into a argument about it.
  14. Geez, this is hardcore. I looked out the window and thought no today will definately be a rest day!
  15. Thats nice, it takes me 10secs to go from the one side of MY backyard to the other side. Or its more like 5secs.
  16. You took the words out of my mouth!
  17. Super hot bike Luke!!
  18. www.Mountainmailorder.co.za its like CWC just for outdoor gear! But i'm not to sure if they have north face, but they have bibler and MSR, which i I think are better anyway.
  19. Another lube thread...anyway here is my 2c. Dont use wet lube if its not necessary, because it makes a mess. Dry lubes, I have used squirt, whitelightning (different kinds)and lately the best one is purple extreme, it last way longer than squirt or white lightning and it cleans very easy. I have never used rock a roll but I would think its very much the same, its also very thin lube.
  20. As far as I now they actually do stretch, that is why you can buy pre-streched cables so that you dont end up with this problem. Then on the other hand Mr Single Track it is not rocket science adjusting a gear cable, you must have just done it yourself in the first place.
  21. For me its the best pedals ever, I have the twin ti ones, so they are light aswell. I had LOOK pedals before and I gave them away, I kept on pulling my feet out of the LOOK pedals.
  22. So what is your relationship with the event??? Nothing that I know of increased with 60% over the last year so there is no reason to justify a 60% increase, its obviously about making money, which I totally agree with, but make it a 20 or even a 30% increase.
  23. Atleast its a 29er so he is almost there!
  24. Hahaha good one!!
  25. Hahaha there is a lenghty discussion about this somewhere on the HUB, or did you know that....
