  1. I find it amazing that second hand bikes get so little in general but have good components. But then youook at new stuff with.... Parts like microshift and sunrace. And it's 30k+ the second hand market doesn't relate to the new market price.
  2. I have persisted with the red first ascent. And in getting use dto it. Doing 4hours is fine in it now. I think rule 5 is most important. I also noticed it hurts less if I I use no bum cream
  3. Mr price sport tops are nice loose fit. I even use there wickening normal running shirts. Works well
  4. Iive between Soshanguve and Hammanskraal. And cycle through the bush without issues. I try to avoid places where they know cyclists go with fancy bikes. And I ride with old shorts, safety boots and a back pack I got from Mr price. And I look more like a commuter. I, do believe this helps. I don't care what I look like. I do this for fun
  5. Seems like we need to start taking the,"loodpil" injection with again
  6. In every type of thing I'm do professionally. Hidden cables are never the best
  7. Phonetic alphabet. To help create a uniform alphabet
  8. Welcome. Enjoy. I learnt alot on the hub over last few years. Ignore the sarcasm and trolls

  10. But then again their is enough of the other stuff in our water in this country that we should be used to it by now
  11. I can't answer on bikes but on cars, garagedoors and gate motors bushes are far worse than bearings. I can't believe your weight breaks bearings except if they are cheap replacements.
  12. I see a few people saying selling 100k used.... I don't se where the post where OP says he wants to sell a used bike for 100k

  14. So I saw a used Liv at Cyclelab lab Pretoria and was even suggesting it to my wife. But was 2 weeks ago. Looks nice.
  15. There's no Friday this week
  16. Like I said apparently. Someone made a paot asking this awhile ago on the hub and there has been no response. And for me knowing how wonderful out country's management solves sewage problems and the cost of the race I don't know if I wnat to risk this without proper comms. And the organizers dont really answer the questions
  17. The 80km is not a problem. The problem I have is that it's flat and apparently there might be a sewage problem on the route. I've gone from 0 to quite good distance and climbing in 3,months of coaching. But I'm more training for stage races currently specifically the amohela. The miler is more a see what gravel races are like for when I want to do the Karoo burn 2025
  18. I Wanna do the 50 miler. But sounds long and lonely and flat. Especially for the price
  19. There are enough mtb races and now gravel races for me.
  20. The more I read about road races in general the more I'm inclined to not do them at all. I did one the ride for sight. My first. And was ok. Road was mostly closed. Tmbut even there was some local who just igonerd the metros and just cut us off.
  21. Was actually red
  22. Sounds like incompetent orginizers
