  1. Definitely not leaking at all, been swimming, showering etc and not issues at all.
  2. @Fisan Nope I didn't come right with them. Took forever to eventually get to inspect my watch, came back and said they can't change the buttons and said they'd give me a discount on a new one... wasn't going to fork out R16k for a new watch when 1 single button wasn't working. Found a guy who had a smashed Epix, opened it and removed 1 of the buttons and installed in my watch. Working 100% now. Maybe I should go work for Garmin and show them how to repair their own devices 😁
  3. Someone is selling an entry : https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/event-entries/768265/947-road-race-entry-centurion But as mentioned above, the person would need to do the substitution at the expo this week.
  4. Already tried this as well as soaking it in water for awhile according to their site, no joy.
  5. Hey guys I have a Garmin Epix Gen 2 Sapphire and the back button has stopped working. I took it to Garmin and just got a response that they will replace the unit for R16k?? Surely there is a way to replace just the button because I don't have that kind of money for a replacement watch when just a single button isn't working.... 😔 I've got multiple Garmin devices and never had any issues, so rather disappointed in this watch.
  6. Both trainers are awesome, you won't go wrong with either one. From my personal experience, I've had the original Kickr v1, then got the Kickr v5. Unfortunately the v5 stopped sending power and cadence figures (apparently it's an issue with this version from reading various forums). I started looking at the Elite range during this time as well. The new Elite Avanti that is hopefully coming at the end of the year or early next year looks amazing for the price point. The Suito and Justo also look like amazing trainers. I mean if Pogi can ride on Elite then I'm sure it's good for us mere mortals 😉 In saying that, Wahoo (Ikhambi Distributions) have been absolutely amazing, they went out of their way to assist me, so I can highly recommend them! I'm now currently on the v6 and couldn't be happier.
  7. I've got a Garmin Dual HRM and pair via bluetooth to my pc and works fine, no issues.
  8. I have. Unfortunately I don't have the original receipt as it was given to me as a gift. Also, it's over 2 years old. I've also contacted that guy, he can assist if it's a power supply related issue, which this is not 😞
  9. Hi guys My Kickr v5 recently just stopped working, no lights on the trainer even though power supply is fine. Can't pick up the trainer anymore. Does anyone know where I can possibly get it repaired as it is no longer under warranty (it's about 2 1/2 years old) or does anyone perhaps have a v5 lying around that also isn't working? Cheers
  10. Dusi2C was a great event
  11. Awesome thank you so much for the great explanation. I'm currently on 50% discount on devices, working at getting it higher. Much appreciated.
  12. Hi guys I'm really sorry for this stupid question, I've tried reading through the past few pages and it all gets very confusing.. but I am looking at getting a Garmin Epix 2 watch through Sportsmans Warehouse via the Vitality money back program. What is the best way to get the most discount? I've got Vitality on Diamond status and also got Money but only on Bronze. Thank you Wesley
  13. I'm in Roodepoort area.
  14. Anyone know where we can get a test done cheaply in JHB, wanna do it before arriving in CT
  15. Thanks, will check them out.
  16. Hey guys I have the Kickr Gen 1 and remember seeing someone offering an "upgrade kit" for the Kickr 1 to make it more silent? Do you know where I could find this? Cheers
  17. Just a follow up to my previous post. I would like to extend a HUUUUUUUGGGEEEE thank you to Jonathan from Two Wheels Trading, you ROCK!! I have never ever experienced such amazing customer service in my life. Keep up the amazing work. Jonathan assisted me immediately once I contacted him and sent through my new upgraded rim on Fri 7th May. The rim arrived in JHB on Monday 10th May and was sent to Josh from Cyclists Workshop. I'd like to thank Josh for his amazing speedy service in managing to rebuild my new rim by Wednesday 12th May just in time for me to leave for Sani2C the following day! I'm super happy with my new upgraded ARCH rim. All round what an amazing experience, thank you to all involved.
  18. Just been in contact with Jonathan from Two Wheels Trading and their response has been amazing so far, now that is what I call customer service! Will hopefully take my wheel in later today to get warrantied, hope all goes well.
  19. Sent my bike for service recently and mechanic pointed out the same issue on my rims...
  20. Which Makro's can one get this from?
  21. What a colossal stuff up at Lanseria this morning, systems down so they are manually writing boarding cards for everyone... Surely an airport should have a backup system you would think.... Lol
  22. So by my calculations, if it takes a person roughly 1min from the front of the queue to print their number and collect their pack then : 1min x 35000 cyclists = 35000 min / 60 / 24 to get days .... 24.3 days!!! So let's say they have 10 printers, that means 2.4 days of SOLID printing just to get all the numbers printed... I think I may just print my own number at home and forget about the expo... Unfortunately we need the stupid starters card to get into our chutes.
  23. So can we collect numbers tomorrow, got conflicting stories? Not going to make it to Cradlestone by 5 today.
  24. Hmmm, so not really a saving from Discovery then.. :-(
