Headshot Posted March 11 Posted March 11 I remember when the tough terrain videos actually showed, well, tough terrain. Latest one is of Klipwerf at Banhoek, an amazing flow trail. Is this the toughest terrain the Epic has to offer this year? Are they trying to scare first time riders? 🙂 BuffsVintageBikes, babse, DieselnDust and 2 others 5

W@nted Posted March 12 Posted March 12 I see that team honeycomb are racing the epic with the new Stoll mtb with 32 inch wheels. So it begins... Headshot, Dusty and DieselnDust 1 1 1

I hope they update their Cateye's to reflect the correct wheel circumference... W@nted, Irvin85, DieselnDust and 6 others 1 8
W@nted Posted March 12 Posted March 12 I see their nutrition sponsor is 226 ers... Surely an opportunity missed for 32 GI... openmind, BuffsVintageBikes, DieselnDust and 13 others 2 14
Headshot Posted March 12 Posted March 12 (edited) 226ers should surely be on retro steel 26er HT bikes? This will be the first high media exposure 32" event I think. Will be interesting to see those big wheel's cruising past the puny 29ers. Now they'll know how 26er riders felt when they came along 🙂 Edited March 12 by Headshot Daniel de V and mazambaan 2
MongooseMan Posted March 12 Posted March 12 So the 2 transition stages have been made even longer (apparently to skip around farms due to foot and mouth) This one is gonna take some names I reckon Daniel de V, Spinnaroonie, ChrisF and 5 others 5 1 2
