worriesnot Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 Pyga really impressed me.Was lekker to be able to chat to Pat Morewood about some of the/his bikes and also giving advice to a friend on which model to get. Pascoe now firmly in my sights. oh, and that Hungry Monkey is just an absolute thing of beauty...
BenGraham Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 I just watched this http://www.bikemag.com/gear/exclusive-yeti-launches-new-switch-infinity-suspension-platform/ and tried to understand what the heck they were on about. Eventually I realised that this is why I ride a hardtail. All this mumbo jumbo about small bump compliance and etc etc. I'll keep using my legs as my suspension thanks, they are much cheaper and as yet the maintenance costs have been quite low.

KarlvN Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Now, for the all important question? Why is Cape Town excluded from all this fun, eh?
MTBeer Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 I just watched this http://www.bikemag.com/gear/exclusive-yeti-launches-new-switch-infinity-suspension-platform/ and tried to understand what the heck they were on about. Eventually I realised that this is why I ride a hardtail. All this mumbo jumbo about small bump compliance and etc etc. I'll keep using my legs as my suspension thanks, they are much cheaper and as yet the maintenance costs have been quite low.I ride a dual sus and don't know what okes are on about half the time with suspension settings. I just get on and ride the bloody thing as fast as possible. I change the odd setting occasionally - can't feel any difference - so don't bother to do it again for many moons.
Carelpieterse Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Some gorgeous bikes on display there. "At the fair last year, fat bikes were all the rage. This year there were barely a handful on display." The fat bike trend fizzled out quicker than Vanilla Ice's music career. To all the guys who bought fat bikes last year and now want to flog them... http://www.naoligo.com/kkk/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/ha-ha-nelson-Simpsons-nelson-ha-ha-93-p-672x480.jpgSilverback can't keep up with fatbike orders for November and Desember ...........! For most people this would be the second bike and not the only bike........! Try one and you will know what I mean! Long live fatbikes!
MTB0007 Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 FatBike my only bike .. Makes riding a Blast again No road bike no Mtb just a cool fun ride ..
