Thanks, bridging it out makes sense.

New or used, Joburg area. Any ideas anyone? Thanks..

Howzit. I'm really wondering what the baking powder could possibly be used for, besides the obvious. There has to be a plausible reason dude! Otherwise, the kit is well stocked and will be much cheaper than the ready made kits.

I skeem that everything that needs to be said about the two bikes has been said... except the bashplates. see pic for comparison. Oh, they both crash equally well too.

Experement by patching a new unpunctured tube with what you have before heading off on a trip. Atleast there will be no suprises when you do need to repair a tube. Carry a standard tube as backup as this one can always be patched.

Dead F800... We were returning from a cool ride around the Parys dome area and close to Lenasia. Everything was perfect and I was styling through the mud like a rockstar raving to myself how wonderful the bike was going. We stopped for a few minutes to speak kark and then the kark started. The...

What about both? TKC front and E07 rear. I really like the E07 rear and it is wearing really well. The front seems to be wearing a lot faster than I anticipated. By my calculation, the TKC rear was costing me about 30c/km..
