  1. I'm looking for someone/bike shop/rental company that does what indoor trainer rentals. I've got a surgery coming up that will put me off the trails for 2 months maybe 3 but obviously I want to keep training to maintain a level of fitness (this will also help aid in recovery). I haven't decided yet if buying a smart trainer is worth it for me yet hence I want to start with a short term rental to see if I can get my head into it and possibly continue and buy one. If there is anyone who is willing, I'd be willing to chat. From chats with mates and physio, an OFF WHEEL TRAINER is the best option. Based in Randpark Ridge JHB. Regards D
  2. 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
  3. This is my thinking and why I want to look into adding it to my policy.
  4. Do any of you insure your riding accessories (ie. Shoes, helmet, GPS ECT)?
  5. 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 ????
  6. 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.
  7. 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!
  8. 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.
  9. 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
  10. 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
  11. Ive recently had mine rebuilt as I had a small accident. Here she is in all her glory!
  12. 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
  13. Hey guys, is there anyone who can help with a service manual or an exploded view of the Ritchey Comp V4 MTB Pedals. I had an unfortunate incident this week where my pedal decided to strip itself mid ride. I'm not sure what bearings were in there as it seems like they fell out when the pedal came off, I have very few tiny ball bearings left. I've included a pic of what pedals they are. Please help... D
  14. Looking for an update on trails in the Bronkies area, I've got family living on the Dam by the Kungweni Estate and apparently their is a 4x4 trail behind the hill that now has MTB trails? Can any one confirm or let me know of a decent 40-50km trail
  15. Gates have been opened again and trails is flowing through to the bottom fence is looking good. the bottom fence is also open
