  1. I ran race kings front and back. And was great in every event i used them in aswell as on my SS commuting. Think i need to go back to this again as the current maxis tires on my ss are *** !
  2. if you can get a SS frame with sliding rear drop outs. its the way to go , or if all else fails listen to what Dangle said above .
  3. Maxis Aspens on my SS , not cool tires for punchers ,i commute and ride this bike almost everyday .need these to wear out now so i can replace them . I got Ritchey WCS on my other bike and the great.
  4. it's the tires I say , I had a pair of conti race kings on my last SS and did like a gazillion miles on them with no hassles . think I need to go back to them again .
  5. its because you hakkers are always taking up the whole track and we have to bush bash to pass you
  6. Wish i had your luck , im averaging a puncher every two weeks at the moment . think my tires have more plugs in them than tread .
  7. I'm one of them , went from DS to HT and loving it . however this is personal preference , each to his own .
  8. the latter , one day when you a big boy you will look back and appriciate...........
  9. coolest toppie you ever met ......................
  10. We stopped at every water point and soaked up the atmosphere , ate like all the jelly babies ( sorry everyone but i have a weakness for them ) and trundled along again .Note to self : trying to climb with a Boostedgp who weighs less than my bike is , well HARD !
  11. You can call me anything you want but a roadie ! and you can keep your beers
  12. Big up to him on his attitude , i like people like this and will be happy to deal with him . Wish him luck on the sale . As said the asg specials have kind of killed his sale , not his fault but i think it will move in time

  18. Recovery drinks I only use after a big race BUT with a proper meal too or just a meal alone will do. Just did makele 3 day race this past weekend . after each day it was USN recovery max WITH a proper meal. Don't just rely on recovery drinks only , they do assist and are super convenient as pointed out by Eldron .

  21. Hands down the best MTB race on the calendar . Loved the heat , loved the climbs and wet my pants with excitement on the single track .

  23. Why they have not paid all their winning moneys back that they won while being on drugs , cause basically they stole it as it was not won fairly.
