banna Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 No, I'm referring to the bum cream thing. I just can't look at an XC bike the same anymore. http://circlecitybicycles.com/cbutter.htm Ha ha! Ja, I know you were talking about the bum cream, but I gotto tell ya, if it wasn't for that stuff, I probably wouldn't have had a bum left after doing the Epic last year. But ok, having said that, bum cream doesn't come within a 10 meter radius of my Troy Lee baggies!
grb285 Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 hahaha it obviously stems from teh old school days of DH - these pics are of me racing NATIONAL DH at Paarl in 1995! 1inch front travel, plastic brakes, skater knee guards, lycra leggings, and romo pot helmet! Gotta Love it ... oh and that is a young Pat Morewood standing on the side in the first pic in the Jowetts shirt! With Paul Walton (Fabian Barels mechanic) sitting on the haybale http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v748/20/62/587070358/n587070358_2173606_6723.jpg http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v748/20/62/587070358/n587070358_2173607_7095.jpgBRILLIANT!!! I love it man, those pix bring back so many memories of those days. The 'bull bar' bar ends, that helmet. MTB was a baaaaad looking game back then. I'd love to go back in time and pin some of those downhills again on my new bike.
patches Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 Ag ok, if you really have to... hahaha! ok, ok... I'll leave my little bike outta this. Here's some pics from when I had an AM/FR bike http://www.mtbiker.co.za//images/photos/657/383/0f612cd7a53052de1db9c2c4.jpg http://www.mtbiker.co.za//images/photos/657/383/99f7052dd875e93da9a1450d.jpg http://www.mtbiker.co.za//images/photos/657/383/c1480c79f5c06b6e6326ad0b.jpg

Not my best jump work, but I liked the way the photographer (Peach) got some "magazine" pics. Here's what I replaced that Yeti with: (Morewood Ndiza 4X bike. I still have a Morewood Izimu for DH but the Ndiza is so much fun that the Izimu is my 'lend-to-a-friend' bike now, )
DirtyFrank Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 AND...if none of that helps I might as well post this: [Pics that make you think Why The Face!] That is very sexy!
grb285 Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 That is very sexy!It took me about 10 minutes before I noticed there was a girl holding the bike up.
Cycle Factory Posted June 23, 2011 Posted June 23, 2011 While waiting for the HD I rode this: Don't forget about this one:
nigelhicks Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 ok here are some better in-focus images (with seat up and down )
Flowta Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 This is mine sorry about the pics, will try get some pics in the sun tomorrow.
Flowta Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 These puppies are going on tomorrow for my funday wheels. Rims 32mm wide
Capricorn Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 sweet sled flowta. What bike is that? For some reason, I think i saw it, or something very similar yesterday coming up strand street at the buitengracht intersection, presumably up High lvl road. Not u perhaps?

For some reason, I think i saw it, or something very similar yesterday coming up strand street at the buitengracht intersection, presumably up High lvl road. Not u perhaps? Thanks man. It's a GT Sanction (similar to the Force but with reinforced gussetting and slacker head angle). The fork is a Maverick DUC32. Unfortunately was not me.
banna Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Upgraded my Tracer this weekend with a Fox 36. Notably stiffer than the Revelation I had on previously. Ps: sorry for the high saddle height in the pic! I had to cycle back home from Majik forest and it's kinda difficult going uphill when you're knees are around your ears...
