  1. There is no one better than Werner at Dagley Cycles. He used to work for Omnico when they still had a JHB branch and probably knows more about a lefty than anyone in SA Blueberry rd opposite Eagle Canyon Entrance 0769217099 I,ve had my lefty seviced with them every year without fail
  2. This is my thinking and why I want to look into adding it to my policy.
  3. Do any of you insure your riding accessories (ie. Shoes, helmet, GPS ECT)?
  4. If your can't mix 11 & 12 SPD components. You must either get all 11spd or all 12spd. My opinion go all 11spd, there are plenty upgrade kits available new and used in the the classified section. #shimanoforfishing #SRAMforracing ????
  5. Hey all, I've got Wahoo Tickr HR monitor that I've been using for a few months now. All's been fine until Thursday night when it failed to connect to any of my devices, tried changing batteries, tried resetting it as per Wahoo Troubleshooting page, nothing seems to work. Have any of you have the same problem and manage to find a solution to getting it to work. It was purchased from another Hubber so I obviously don't have store warranty but who could I contact to try see about warranties? Cheers in advance D
  6. Everything you have should be compatible, I've been running Shimano cassettes with SRAM chains and shifters for a while and never experienced any issues. Rapide chainrings are great and run week with both SRAM and Shimano cassettes
  7. Hey guys, might sound a bit dof but it's there a Shimano compatible XD Freebody? I've got a Shimano m8000 hub and want to change to XD drive, I e read a few forum.s online but very mixed results. Give it to me straight Cheers
  8. I had no issue leaving my bike rack in the boot of my car, I made sure that the service technician and the receptionist knew I was leaving it in the car.
  9. I just want to say that having a bike at your disposal is probably the best thing that a person can have. I'm not going to post a photo or say that I had the best view at the top of some mountain on my ride today. But what I would rather say is that it makes life simple and enjoyable. I had to take my car in for a service yesterday and instead of waiting for them to take me home or back to the office I opted to take my bike with me, once my car was booked in I bid farewell to the friendly staff that helped and hopped on my bike and took a leisurely cruise home. Its the simple things in life that keep us happy and a 4km ride home made my day. So where did my bike take me today? HOME, with a SMILE!
  10. One of the best view in JHB I recon. Had to dig deep to make it to the top in one go. Started at 14th avenue and stopped once I reached the top, hardest part is riding a 36t up front and an 11-36 cassette. The view is worth the suffering.
  11. If the race profile put us as going up the ICONIC Sani Pass then we are in for one "hell" of a climb. According to Strava efforts by previous people the segment has a 20.5km ride with 1305m of climbing. Looking at where the starting grounds are there is still another 5-8km from the grounds to the start of the segment. Day one is +-65km and day 2 is 70km
  12. Here is a bit of showing off for a Friday - Hakahana Tails Enduro And hopefully the next Cannondale I will hang along side old Lucy
  13. Firstly I would never go to Northcliff Cycles they have the worst staff in there. I have been supporting ECC since the very beginning when Tony and Morne used to run the place, Since Conrad and his family have taken over i am yet to be disappointing. I popped in on numerous occasions to see if they had bits and bobs for bike build/repairs and projects, I asked not to interfere with what they are currently doing and if they had time to give me a call if they ever came across the part I need. Instead they let me have free rain at their stock room and the multiple boxes (I was like a kid in a candy store), I found what I was looking for and when asked how much it was they asked me to give them a price of what I would pay. Being the person I am I gave them a fair price and they agreed and off I went happy faced. They are very friendly, always willing to help and I will continue to go back . Keep it up guys!!! D
  14. Ive recently had mine rebuilt as I had a small accident. Here she is in all her glory!
  15. Anyone looking for a Rep in the JHB area? I have 10 years of experience in FMCG/Retail and Hospitality. I would love to get into the Cycle industry if there is an opening anywhere as I have a serious passion for it (as do all of us I presume). CV is available on request, please PM, email or call if you know of anything. Thanks Darren drkrul@gmail.com 0823211261
