Rouxenator Posted October 21, 2018 Share Some of you may know I have a history of ending up with cracked frames. When I was in school I cracked 2 Frenchies (Peugeot Apline Foxes) and as an adult I started with 3 Americans (GT Karakoram + Zaskars) followed by 2 Taiwanese (Giant Talons). All of those were bought new. So I decided to buy my first used bike in August of 2016. It was a used 2014 Sola 1. Too my surprise, now 27 months later, I have clocked up just over 20,000km on this bike. Shock and frame are still original. Seems the Germans are a tough one to crack Rolled over yesterday on Durbie Dash. Hairy, Head f t Hills, WeekendWarrior80 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FirstV8 Posted November 25, 2018 Share My Silverback doing a good deed . On my Saturday morning route through the Bredel /Bapsfontein fields i saw a young tortoise walking in the tracks used by cyclists and bikers . I managed to get him on his way in the sparse grass which is just starting to grow after some evening rains . tinmug, HDW, sawystertrance and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henningvr Posted April 3, 2019 Share My new Slade Trail. I upgraded the stock Sector saddle with a Spez Phenom. I ditched the stock pedals for Shimano Saints, and added King KOM grips. I also upgraded the rear rotor to 180mm (replaced both front and rear rotors). What an awesome bike.
