So you better get out of my way on the trail, and quickly, and don't expect me to move over when you want to pass ...... also don't park in my parking spot at the trail head ....even if I am not coming to the trail Sure you going to have many happy miles on her
Chris NewbyFraser Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Traitor Still ride my Escape hybrid for mid-week training. Much safer in the dark. Plan to make it semi-cyclo-cross
Chris NewbyFraser Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Pics or it's not true Cannot do pic yet - it's got a Tiagra crank. That's worse than bad porn
GLuvsMtb Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Wanted to fix my wife's old 26er so that she can get riding again. Everything was shot, so got her this instead. And it was cheaper than trying to repair her old bike. Does anyone know of charities that will accept the old bike as a donation? Still some good parts that can be built over to another bike.

Hairy Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 Built the Stumpy up to near completion last night. Thanks to load shedding it was a late start! Final bits and bobs later today. Overall the frame looks great, and I think the build will eventually be good looking. Still to fit chain and she can ride.....But the front wheel needs to be tjoobless converted today, need a shorter stem and a new 780mm bar With fresh grips. As it stands, the garage dead lift promises the lightest bike I have owned in many years

It is the best handlebar I have ever used.

WezGK Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 So I got a Specialized Transition yesterday... first race today, was the Trinity Sprint Triathlon... loved it!
Hairy Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Where is the Rocky?In a box, in my house, waiting for the courier guy to get it to JHB
Hairy Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 I hate Spaz .... all the other minions on other brands want to talk while out riding, but they are ruining my street cred and I can't keep slowing down to stay with them, STRAVA beckons.
RocknRolla Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Managed to do 3 hours on specialized crave on saturday. Was not too fond of the stiffness of this bike. Was scared I may buckle the wheels on some of the rollers on Saturday. Very aggressive geometry.The carbon fork is stiff as flippen hell, there is no flex in any direction. Nice eccentric bb for chain tension. Paintjob is something to behold...
Headshot Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 This thread has deteriorated into a Spaz mutual appreciation circle.
