Hey Aub!!! Was good to see you again. Been a very long time and so good that you came to give Downhill a bash. You must get your brother to come ride!!!

 

Well done to all the new riders, so glad you guys had a blast. Hope to see you all at the next event.

A vid the Frerichs brothers put together from footage on Saturday.

I was told that this was Grant's 1st DH outing (he does have some MX experiance ) and Ryan's 1st time back on the DH rig since breaking his wrist at the Contermanskloof National earlier in the year.

I was riding with Peach this afternoon and he said how much fun it was. Here in Gauteng we only have short rocky courses.

 

Pity I missed out on this one, sounded awesome!

[nigelhicks]

I doubt that banana can be straightened unfortunately - i think thats a new rim for you sonny ....

[geecee]

Pringles have a certain amount of warpage. I think yours is a bit more like a pretzel.

Take it through to Evan's Cycles in Arbour Crossing (You live in Toti don't you?) They straightened a mate rime off a Makro special that looked worse than yours for around R100

[geecee]

yeah might do that just heard some *** stories from that crowd too, but you never know

[nigelhicks]

give it a try but coming from an oke who worked in a shop - that rims toast ... if they get it dead straight then they are geniuses.

 

What rim is it?

[Grebel]

I haven't dealt with them before but my neighbour swears by them. It's just a rim so they can't really do that much damage....
