  1. So using a 32t hollowgram crank is perfectly compatible with Sram eagle? Or do you have to run a larger 34t spider front blade?
  2. Gym opened in constantia that has an altitude room 2800m above sea level. I tried it out the other evening and I must say it is very different to normal sea level training.
  3. Is this just another gimmick or will it change my performance? Need something to keep interested over the long winter....
  4. Chances are the shop will now go bust and liquidate making it harder to get your money back. I would first get the cash and then splash it on social media.
  5. Looks like we have some serious rain on the way for the first 4 days. Stage 1 just got interesting and I need to get some extra break pads and a sense of humour!
  6. Just swopped my Shimano XTR for XT. I go through XTR pedals every 9 months or so. Comes clean off the axel and cannot repair it in the field. I would just stick to XT but I have a warranty and they hand me new XTR's. I just nod and accept...

    Tankwa Trek

    I did Tankwa this last weekend. I would say GR300 is tougher but the weather is cooler and the terrain not as rugged. But there are no free miles in the Knysna forests it's either up or down. Heading to GR300 tomorrow, looking forward to it.

    Argus 2014

    From finishing middle of A group last year to C! And I PB'd- 94.7 (2:30) and 99er 2:44.... You think is worth moaning and trying to get reseeded?
  10. My roval hubs and spokes are giving massive problems, keep popping spokes out. Mechanic has advised to rebuild with new hubs before the Epic. Any views on these hubs? I just want reliability. O and I love my Chris King road hubs....
  11. My specialized shocks are so lekker after the 150hr service.
  12. Anyone know what the distance will be before we hit the dirt section?
  13. I ride D-E, the group seemed slow rolling to the climb and then took the climb really slowly allowing everyone to get back on. There were 5-6 guys working hard in the second half and one rider that had bees in his head and took us on an interval session for 20min. By agter Paarl the group was tired and the pace slowed only to hot up in the final sprint by guys I had not seen all day. I have no issue with wheel suckers that appear for the bunch sprint. I just need to get back up to B-C to suck those faster wheels....
  14. You think they will allow me to watch the service?
