DR ◣◢ Posted October 16, 2012 Author Posted October 16, 2012 Quick question for the more experienced riders on Breedts Will a 32x32t or 32x34t be ok on the climbs?Not keen on going back to 3x9 just for 1 ride.

DeltaAlphaMike Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 And here I am considering changing my 26 to ss just for breedts. To do or not to do there in lieth th question =)
Sidewinder. Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 I've been looking at these http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=55373 How's the fit for wide feet?
DR ◣◢ Posted October 16, 2012 Author Posted October 16, 2012 Keep in mind the 45% odd import duty and VAT so your R454 becomes R915+- landed cost Check out Solomons or Sports Basement instead.

I'm putting the order with a friend's free shipping order so I dont think that will be an issue? Any idea if FPC paulhof sells shoes? River Rat 1

Be very very careful. The whole order could be subject to 45% duty. Ive heard horror stories with customs. Sports Basement is only a little further down the road from FPC Sidewinder. 1

I am thinking of a 32/16 for breedts. I have been doing NF on 32/16 over the last few weeks as well as the spruit so I am getting better with that now =)
Thug Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 The problem with selecting the right SS gear ratio for Breedts is the return journey from the top of the climb, as generally i'ts big blade all the way back to the garage. Ideally I'd probably ride a 34x19 but seeing that I don't own a 19 it will probably be a 34x20 on a 29"
Green Bean Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 (edited) Hey ladies, have you decided what you taking?!!! Your normal stock std MTB or your SS with either your 32x18x26 or 32x16x26 or 34x19 or wait your 34x20? 3x9? :-) Can I go in the Jeep and wait for you'll on the top with some ice cold beers?
