After an armed robbery at our business 2 years ago a former employee spotted my wife's phone in the hands of one of his colleagues. He asked to look at it and not only still found some of my wife's pictures, but also a lot of pics of him and his mates partying etc. The police used it to track down everybody involved in the robbery. Unfortunately the case has been dragging on for almost 2 years in the courts.
I'm up too, ride @ 4:45 am. Nothing like a "middagslapie" on a Saturday arvie for recovery. Will wake up in time to see the Stormers trash the 'saders.
It also helps to remove the valve core; gets more air into the tire quicker. Screw the core back in quickly and re-inflate. This even sometimes work with a floor pump, depending on the brand of tire.
JB, do you think that will work as a chain lube as well? My Pedros has after 1 year of use ran out now and I am not going to pay R90 for a small bottle of oil if there is an alternative.
my 2cent's worth - Why must this be an either/or issue. If I can afford a decent 29er I will buy it and use it for marathons and stage races. The 26" hardtail I will keep for week-end fun and short course races. Comparing the two is like asking what is the best car - a single cab bakkie or a 4 door sedan; you probably need both.
I see that they on stage 4 they do a section of the Jan Phillips Mountain Drive - that's going to be fun on a roadbike. Will be interesting to see whether the riders change their tyres.
