Me rida my bicycle

Best way to go for lunch. Added bonus can't get pulled over for drinking and cycling ????

It was a awesome route but definitely not for the faint hearted ????

Happy with my achievement, longest I have ever done and the wind was brutal.

I liked the idea of a trail HT, I wanted something I could play with down the trails no matter the colour of the sign and still enjoy a 100km+ ride. So I built a down-country HT, 120mm fork, 150mm dropper, Flow mk3 wheels, 2.6 tyre up front and 2.35 at the back (doing the race to sea 100miler today the reason for the 2.2 at the moment). Love this bike fun and cheap to run! I sold my previous build for a new trail dual suspension and was so disappointed. The second or two I made down the trails did not matter because it took so much more effort to get to the top, I could not enjoy it as much.

Thanks guys for helping making up my mind real quickly. Was looking at that frame as a fun project but it sounds like anything but fun with offset wheel and special crank...

Those are nice wheels. The s1 range with the eyelids around the spokes don't crack like some of the mk3 stans rims do. Also if you have one of the newer 940 Scale's it should be carbon so a good wheelset will make a big difference.

Skill trumps travel any day of the week. I have seen loads of duals break pivots, frames and destroying wheels on jumps and drops. Though duals might make some people feel invisible because they are not feeling what their bike is going through on the trails, so when they run out of bike is usually just a little past when they ran out of talent and your rear goes like a rabbits nose.

Did you pay with Bikehub pay? Then they could have given you your money back and you send the bike back.

Looks like the paint cracked where the aluminium is moulded into the Carbon.

Hi In terms of the gears I found the difference from Deore to XTR is mainly the weight. Some small changes like from XT you can drop 2 gears at a time. So Deore would be a good starter. Forks if you are starting I would say as long as it's a air fork. Nothing wrong with Suntour air forks. Get something that is going to make you want to ride.

Heeltyd speeltyd. Decided to ride all my favorite trails in d'ville in a row. Bloemendal, Contermans, Hoogekraal, Fair Cape. Was a bit of climbing but definitely worth it!

Imagine coming down that road at speed or not looking where you are going ????

Carbon ti bolts all over for some color but more importantly new guide dog (coyote) ????

Na vandag pyn my maag meer as my bene lanklaas so lekker gelag. Just like minded people having fun ????

Bike took me for a quick beer after work ????

Lekker day out with some trailside mechanics but what's the fun in everything going smoothly ????

The garmin forerunner 45 is on sale now on takealot for R2800. Have seen them in marketplace for around R2000.

Was thinking about getting express but have never had issues with the app on android so thanks guys for saving me the trouble. ????????

Is the remote lockout disengaging correctly/completely?

I would take it into the office. I doubt the sun will damage it but I will worry the whole day that some son of a witch will do some affirmative shopping.

Stunner of a day! Social distancing, solo ride was good for the soul.

Hi cool send me a pm and we can arrange something ????????

Have not been for a decent ride in weeks because of work/weather but as they say "as dit pap reën moet jy skep". Today was just great haven't felt this good on the bike in a long time ????????

They do, I am almost always asked what the value is and if I want insurance. They cover up to R1000 normally I think but there is a choice to insure more valuable items.

Well at least you know where he lives ????
