  12. LOl Rodti I had the exact same reaction, I was really thinking move more to the left or right I cant see the bike proper We are sick in the hub. I think the new poll is who wanted the hottie to move over to the right so we can see the bike
  13. I am also having a miniscus opp the doc said he will decide when he is in whether to remove or shave whats your issue I feel absolutely fine until I bend past a certain point. When i try stretch it seems flear it up and make it worse takes a few days to settle down.
  14. I dont often comment on this type of stuff but must say I got my stuff (bike scott) from cajees in Eastgate (park meadows) The guy who runs it (mukaran) has been nothing but a gentleman. He gave me a price that was far lower than any-ware else and believe me i researched. After sale service has been great and I find with my limited knowledge of servicing and stuff his service guy to be great (mike) That is not to say I dont still buy online (cwc and what not) Dont know much about fourways but i have to say thumbs up to cayees parkmeadows

    rotors?

    Here is the situation never got real understanding current setup Alec wheels with Avid juicy brakes and 160MM Back rotor and 185MM front rotor (both avid and 6 bolt) New setup in the process XT wheels which are cente lock need to get rotors pref light ones. what are my option I know i can buy a converter from centre lock to six bolt but that seems silly as it negates the advantage of centre lock and its heavy I dont mind going to 160MM on both if thats an answer I do know that avid just started selling an avid 185MM centre lock rotor but its R500 a rotor any advice or even avids local number (agents) so i can ask them
  23. not necc i will look at the page back very impressed, nice ride
