  1. .........and you're getting a Soma Juice?
  2. hijack: go drool over a yeti at thegearchange instead. edit: will add something meaningful to the debate. it is impressive that the sport has grown to the extent that shops like this can operate, clearly with big budgets, professional shop fitters etc, when I stareted mountain bicycling g my LBS was a little semi detached house in salt river painted turquoise....before the area became trendy. so yes this place looks impressive, perhaps its the right environment for a 40something director to drop R80 to R120+ K on a carbon full suss 29er that he just has to have in order to ride off road. suppose there'e a reason why they sell Aston Martins at the waterfront and Kia's in Paarden Eiland. want to shoot the breeze with the mechanic pull into your LBS, want to get "wow'ed" by a lot of trademarked jargon and drop R100k, you know where to go
  3. racing should be better, but will the winning time be slower? edit: spelling

  7. Don't bastardize a proper Cross bike into a monstercross, bastardize a 29er MTB into a cross bike...... Cross must remain pure!
  8. will be cruising the Argus with Buckshot who will be on his proper monstercross....

  11. how do track wheels fit in a road frame 120mm hub in a 130mm spaced frame?
  12. would rather see James Reid make a name for himself on the world XCO stage...... say what you like XCM is still plays 2nd fiddle internationally.
  13. I wanna see the bike they will be on. Oh wait this should be in the Chinese carbon thread Seriously, lets see the new Volcan.

  15. A million Euro's and we're celebrating 8th? Wasn't this guy touted as the next Merckx a few years back? Eddy, not Axel. yes, I am a little grumpy today.
  16. oops, your seat tube gusset just fell off.....
  17. realistically how many different mules are there or would there normally be......is all the 'R&D' just PR once the frame has been designed on a computer and then welded up? *disclaimer: not trolling, just curious.
  18. ja,ja....... decals are actually quite catchy, they should try use them for the basis of the bikes production paint job......
  19. not CRC and not DHL but a Wednesday afternoon order from another UK bike shop had me drive home from the office on the Friday afternoon with my swag......it can be done. SAPO needs to play catch up, although I think its too late for them now.
