'Dale Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 What is cool though is that as a consumer, one can choose. There are pros and cons to all the wheelsizes. So, where you ride and your training/racing objectives determines your choice.
BLACKvoodoo Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 (edited) Wrong deduction, mate. I'm still on my old Giant Xtc1 HT 26'er. Not because I cannot afford a 29'er (if I really wanted one, you can buy them from R5000.00 upwards now) It is my choice, as I cannot see the benefit TO ME by going to a 29'er. It is going to do diddly squat for my riding prowess. So I'll rather save my money for something else.I was going to read what you said but I need to stimulate my brain, not retard it so... sorry for you wasting your one finger typing on me..

forkie Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Ja, but what bakkie do you drive?... Doesnt matter. There are only 2 things with wheels that deserve bashing - Harleys and Landys. (ford) Grebel 1
dirtrider Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 OMG this is sooo farken funny . So I should get a 29'er just because it will rank me higher on the social MTB ladder ? HT or DS ? I don't wanna make a mistake and waist my drinking money . Stretch 1
scotty Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 I fail to understand how anybody can feel insulted or threatened or even be slightly affected by what somebody else rides. You are not riding it, they are. How has it got any significance in your life? If thats what they choose - so be it. We are all different. Are you now going to give me a hard time because I drive a bakkie and you drive a mini? please...Agree 100%. Kavandje 1
Wyatt Earp Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 You're not getting my point. Well then elaborate and make a point for once. Let me cut is straight with you.You are a roadie and with all the coverage MTB is getting on telly at the moment you are suddenly following it a bit.The only name that has made an impact to you at this stage is Nino Schurter. Your dig at Burry was plain and simple being disrespectful.
'Dale Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Anyone knows whether Scott is going to put that prototype 650B into production?
TNT1 Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 So because Nino won 1 race this year so far, he is the new God of MTB ? He's been the God of MTB for years already...

I don't wanna make a mistake and waist my drinking money .It's waste , maybe spend the drinking money on education
Tumbleweed Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Doesnt matter. There are only 2 things with wheels that deserve bashing - Harleys and Landys. (ford) Hahahahahahaha! What's that old insult? 90% of Harleys and Landys are still on the road; the other 10% made it home... Clapped-out old Hardbody here, but I love it!
Tumbleweed Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 But what are you then actually trying to say ? Er, that they are about the same height...
Wannabe Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 I was going top read what you said but I need to stimulate my brain, not retard it so... sorry for you wasting your one finger typing on me..Or maybe you know it is the truth and that your argument does not carry any water. Don't bother replying, as I'm done wasting my time on you.
Wyatt Earp Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Interesting... the 650b seems like the best of both worlds though. There are pros and cons to all the wheelsizes. How can you have the best of both worlds when you have pro's and cons on all the wheel sizes ?
dirtrider Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 It's waste , maybe spend the drinking money on education Sounds like a very good idea .

Your dig at Burry was plain and simple being disrespectful. 3 points about me, HairySack. 1. I follow most endurance sports. It is not about the terrain.2. Africanmtbkid is a superstar. I admire his achievements and overall attitude.3. This is not personal. It's general discussions about a sport. Edited March 26, 2012 by danseuse
Wyatt Earp Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Er, that they are about the same height...Er, and then ? He's been the God of MTB for years already...Really ?
