Tumbleweed Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Tubleweed did you check you get ones with a removable one. Yup, the insert is connected to the outer by two studs.
1hill@aTime Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Yup, the insert is connected to the outer by two studs.Who were the studs?
TNT1 Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Who were the studs? Me and Dangle. We even have signs. paulk 1
Pieter1 Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Yup, the insert is connected to the outer by two studs.Theyre pretty cool but I think they were R200 more than the fixed ones.
1hill@aTime Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Me and Dangle. We even have signs. you and Dangle in Tumbles shorts? man i would not put that on a open forum...
Tumbleweed Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Theyre pretty cool but I think they were R200 more than the fixed ones. I see the FA site has them at R899.
Caerus Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 (edited) Depending if I'm riding my trail bike or XC hardtail, I switch between having shorts on or not. Either way I ride with my bib shorts, if I'm doing a few laps down the beachfront, shorts without a doubt. Never had an issue catching my FOX shorts which I got from the Fox Store(R799) which have detachable inners. I have caught my bib shorts of my saddle a few times. Not had an issue riding 60km + in shorts/ baggies either. Edited April 11, 2012 by Caerus
Jeepdude Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 (edited) hey who left out 27.5 inch riders? let's see 26 inch 120mm travel or longer wear baggies... racers (budgy smugglers) lycra...27.5 inch and single speeders can wear anything (must be a cult thing) 29 inch MUST be lycra unless it's a Pyga or a Niner dually.... ? imagine explaining it all on wikipedia... wonder if the guy that wrote Downhills are your friend included that in his book?

Jeepdude Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 So I mean to say, vat jou baggies and MTB, ride to the pub via the parkie, get those beers, get wasted, bunny-hop the barcounter, leave your baggies with the oulike waitress en kom ons time-trial huistoe in Lycra, and sommer drag race a few roadies, robot-to-robot, uphill, just 'cause you can!

banna Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 I hear you...........but today's baggies are well fitting and with inline covers not really much space for getting caught by the saddle..............either way, lets agree to disagree. Just get a dropper seat post dudes. No snagging ever again.
jimmy hardtail Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Gonna start riding in tight cut off jeans...
patches Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Gonna start riding in tight cut off jeans... Nice! brakeless BMXer style! I have some skinny-jean cut offs I ride in on occasion... I do find they restrict movement quite a bit though
sadamhussein Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 i like to wear baggies (over a pair of lycras) because i have pockets to put my cellphone and house keys, but more importantly it doesn't rip when i fall - some of my friends are forever tearing their lycra on the most minor off's, and then they have to ride semi-naked all the way back. i'm all for practicality vs posing and trying to look like burry stander on the epic.

TNT1 Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Gonna start riding in tight cut off jeans... Have you got your tappit sign?
Pieter1 Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 I see the FA site has them at R899. Thats pretty much how much they were at the shop.
