  1. Get yourself Spaanjard motorcycle chain wax for R149 on takealot. Guess what... it works and you don't pay for make-believe science.
  2. https://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/shimano-ultegra-6700-10spd-cassette 11-25 Ultegra cassette or https://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/shimano-105-5700-10spd-cassette 11-25 105 version
  3. i am also thinking about changing from the 2x10 to 1x11 setup. I have sram currently on a stan's 3.30 rear hub. i was looking at rapide options, but need clarity on whether I will need to do anything with my rear hub for the 11 speed cluster.
  4. I had the pleasure of getting a set of the black and grey socks for our DC team. The socks are very good quality and a superb fit! The colour combos available are also really cool!
  5. Indeed a stinky topic. You will need ointment, bullets (they go up you know where) and possibly surgery if prolapsed. At least two weeks off the bike. The pain is excruciating! You may need a doughnut to sit on at work too (but this was simply to embarrassing). Good luck, i would not wish this on anyone.
  6. Incidentally, I have the same problem with vitality. I could be getting a smoothie/vida every week for free on vitality rewards. Another Polar!
  7. Once more a very insightful assessment, thank you for your input. When purchased in around 2012 the watch was still one of Polar's flagship multi-sport units (if I recall correctly, it was one of their most expensive too). The reason the watch does not relate to software 6 years later (actually 3 years for me) is because no driver has been released by Polar-my main gripe. The unit has all the functionality I require and I did not wish to change it. It has been well looked after and maintained during its short lifespan of 3 or so years. Unfortunately, Polar's reluctance to provide a driver for it, renders the unit useless and, as already mentioned, forces a customers hand to buy a new product. Wired, I really hope you are able to find a driver for it!
  8. VelomonatiCT, that is a really insightful. Imagine I posted that I am angry with Shimano because the 105 cassette I bought does not work with with my ultegra derailleur. Then you respond and tell me that you think 105 is great because you can use it well with your Tiagra parts. The fact remains, I do not use windows 9. I use Windows 10 (today's technology). Irrespective, Polar has not suggested that they are waiting on Windows 10 to fix all their bugs where after they will release a driver, but have advised their customers to buy their new range of products as they are not releasing a new driver for windows 10.
  9. I am glad someone has posted this. I recently encountered the same issue and wanted to post the exact same complaint here. The attitude adopted by Polar to this is absolutely atrocious. Polar's suggestions that: "WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO SHIFT OVER TO OUR NEW FLOW COMPATIBLE PRODUCTS FOR FULL PRODUCT SUPPORT" is indicative of a complete disregard for their customers. The after sales service was one of the reasons I opted to purchase a "top of the range" unit from Polar. The polar after sales service, as evidenced by this, is nonexistent. I am certain that a driver for windows 10 would not make a dent in their annual books and this is simply their attempt to force customers' hands to purchase their new units. Polar may have forced my hand inasmuch as the unit I purchased for a great amount of money has now become useless, but be certain, I will never purchase a polar unit again, nor will I suggest the purchase of their products to anyone. Their measly saving in not developing a driver, will assist their many competitors: Garmin, Suunto, Wahoo etc. Thank you Polar for forcing my hand! I will be buying a new unit and will make sure to increase your competitor's asset value. Great business foresight.
  10. Bicycle path...great option.Created for cycling
