patches Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 Keeping the Morewood torch burning haha, yup! When I left SA I had 4 Morewoods. Sadly only 2 of them made it across to the other side of the world. I sold the other 2, and picked up a Trek in the process. That little maroon one is the ultra rare "Zulisa" fourcross prototype. Only a 2 of them made (AFAIK) and only for the old Morewood United ride team. This one was made for either Mick Hannah or Fabiene Cousine for Crankworx Les2Alpes 2012. Here's Mick styling on the little morewood, better than I ever could Hairy, DJR and RossW 3
patches Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 Been looking for a solution. Need something for 2 bikes and this looks like a winner. Can highly recommend. They come in 3 options: classic rack, fender rack, and fat rack. They say the classic rack is only for up to 2." tyre widths. The michelins on my Trek are more like 2.5/2.6's (in size) and manage to squeeze in, so unless you have a commuter bike or fat bike, the classic works for just about everything else.
Jako De Wet Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 (edited) My OneUps finally arrived...I think a grey/orange CSIXX mudguard is on the cards and then to start saving for that Fox36. Edited June 11, 2019 by Jako De Wet Reme Le Hane, Andrew_Smith, Jackal355 and 7 others 10

Go for an all black MRP Ribbon instead, superior fork IMO anyway.Will help with the murdered look, apart for the "ugly" pedals spoiling that party........ PhilipV 1

Eddy Gordo Posted June 12, 2019 Posted June 12, 2019 thought it was rock guardz, but there are some others as well.
GiantTjop Posted June 14, 2019 Posted June 14, 2019 Finally bought myself a 29er carbon hardtail once more. Never used my road bike and thought this would make more sense as a type of gravel/road/commute bike Considering how relatively cheap it has been- i'm stoked with the outcome.Still a work in progress...

GiantTjop Posted June 14, 2019 Posted June 14, 2019 (edited) From a fellow Hubber in Cape Town. His ads are listed - search for carbon rigid.
