  1. Was recently at Van Gaalens, stopped at the floating bridge so my buddy could do it a few times as he has never done a floating bridge before, then came along a group of 3 riders so i took videos of them crossing, and here are 2 screen shots of the videos i took.
  2. I personally like the Fox Flow, im looking at purchasing one for myself as soon as I find it in the right color
  3. Ya i was there last week and the temperature was 43 Celsius in the sun at 2pm, unbelievably hot.
  4. @shaper, i honestly didn't even think of that, what a kluts.. Thanks haha
  5. Thanks L.T.G, could you possibly find out as i dont use facebook
  6. Thanks Mike Bike looking forward to it
  7. Ah Okay really looked like Table view hey @Wheeler2, we need a picture of your Merida standing proud next to some awesome single-track
  8. Another question, will Van Gaalens be open on Sunday the 27th? I cant wait to get back there and do that river section again.
  9. Clicking sound just as the rear shock starts compressing.. Very odd, could be the BB Bearing is maybe loose, or one of the pivot bearings or bolts might need tightening up.. Just check all the connection points are nice and tight. When i bought my bike the clowns that assembled it didn't bleed the rear brake, brake handle would close fully with no resistance and no braking, although i did install my slx brakes on my Merida before i even took a ride in the garden, i also had to shorten the chain by 7 links if i remember correctly, as if they put a standard chain on and never bothered to check if its too long so fixed that along with replacing the rear derailleur from deore to slx shadow and i had to tighten the cassette and the lock ring for the rear rotor was finger tight too,so after installing my old bikes xt rotors on the merida i tighened them properly too. So just double check all bolts, cable ties, lock rings, you name it.
  10. Today at van Gaalens. So far iv done 100km since i drilled my seat tube and no catastrophic failure yet..
  11. Wheeler2, awesome looking bike, not often i see someone else with the same frame Merida as mine i really smaak that green and black color scheme
  12. BSG, is that Bloubergstrand? More specifically table view area? The paving and view of the sea looks very familiar.

  14. Okay perfect, thanks EmptyB, much appreciated
