    Spruit Safety

    rode the spruit this past weekend from home ( enenvale ) , been while since i been on it and i big thank you needs to go out to the people who are cleaning it up ( vegitation ect ). also saw some signage warning riders against a hijacker ( pic of him on a board ) . But sadley i must say the number of vagrants on the bryanston side up to fritellies is worse than i have ever seen , they everywhere , so please gents/ladies on that side of the spruit be careful and ride in numbers .

Citec is a small German wheel company that has to be the most passionate wheels builders around , old school German phalociphy . great wheels , all hand build with a 5 year no spoke break guarantee , not many companies boast that .although not new to the world of wheels , they are new to SA.

  19. a helmet is desined to compress or in some cases depending on impact break thats how it absorbes the shock. cheap lids tend to just break but more expensive lids do a little more buy compressing before breaking ( thus the reason you pay top dollar for good lids ). So if you are happy to have your pip crack or compress when you fall , go for it ! just do a good job so that no one in your family has to feed you and change your nappies for the rest of your life , couse thats not fair on them . bejond me how we are debating wering helmets , whats the planet coming to.
