Capricorn Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 err.. i dont like rolling up unannounced. ?Was waiting for you to say what u just said Rolling in 10min should be there by about 21h15-21h30. Hope that's oritey with your folks. btw dont comment if i look like sh*t cos i feel like sh*t. damn bug is back. ))#)(*(_(#_$(#_$!!!! U sure i dont owe you anything? what did the VAT split come to?
jrussell Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 ya that will be fine and dont worry, ive been cleaning and fixing bikes the whole day so im probably just as bad haha. and that sucks! Your vat is R77 but you gave me R600 and your bars only cost R551 so basicly you owe me about R20 but its fine
Capricorn Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 thanks again Jason. still can't believe how light it is. will make them weightweenies very proud Checked it against my current bar and it's not that much longer. I reckon I'm gonna be pretty happy with the new riding position. I've simulated it before by sliding my hands as far down the bars as the grips will allow, and it felt pretty good.
DownhillingKing Posted January 20, 2010 Author Posted January 20, 2010 Patches has your order arrived, as mine arrived yesturday
Capricorn Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 hahha so they were holding the plane until Jason's and my order arrived Fitted the bars this morning. looks better than the white one. white was too pimp given the rest of the color scheme.
patches Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Patches has your order arrived' date=' as mine arrived yesturday[/quote'] ...nope... not yet The parcelforce site says it's at the delivery depot, but when I phoned EMS to see how much duty was gonna be, they said it hadn't been assessed yet. So I'm hoping today, or at latest by the end of the week?!
DownhillingKing Posted January 20, 2010 Author Posted January 20, 2010 Sucks what did you order? hope you get your stuff soon.
patches Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Sucks what did you order? hope you get your stuff soon. Yeah, it does suck! I ordered a nice new helmet (661 Evolution in Legend white), a couple of Thor DH jerseys, and Truvative Hussefelt bars and stem for my "build a freeride bike" project.
DownhillingKing Posted January 20, 2010 Author Posted January 20, 2010 O nice. What bike are you building up?
patches Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 well... the frame has still to be decided by the size of my wallet when the time comes to buy, haha! I would like to build on a Morewood Mbuzi frame. Crow was selling one a little while back. But if I haven't got the budget, I'll go for anything decent with 6-7" of travel. Forks I'm thinking Rock Shocks Totem, or Marzo 66's. But yeah, right now, I'm building up the collection of other stuff that I can put on my current ride as a slow upgrade, until I make a frame purchase and transfer it all off.
jrussell Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Patches go for 66!! Amazing forks. Cap, ill see you later at Tokia?
patches Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Woohoo!! After a long wait... my helmet and DH jersey order has arrived!! Finally! But I still gotta wait till work is done so I can go home and see it. Now just holding thumbs for Royal Mail to get my bars and stem to me patches2010-01-20 07:41:37
Capricorn Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Jason: big negative. drunk as a sailor (not cos of booze!! ) bug's got me on my arse today. managed to fit the bars this morning when I was still feeling a bit oritey. But it's only gone pearshaped since then. going to doc later this afternoon.
