  1. I’m into XC racing, so the geometry unfortunately does play a role and limits the choice of frame.
  2. Who is the dealer in SA, where I can view the frames, or does it have to be imported? I see it’s for frames of 130-140mm forks, mine is 100mm πŸ’†β€β™‚οΈ
  3. I previously had a carbon hardtail, absolutely enjoyed it before it got stolen. Since then, been on a boost dual suspension with excellent fork, carbon wheels and groupset. I have always thought of going back to the hardtail, since it is far more fun to ride. I have been thinking of getting a boost hardtail frame, swapping my components over and keeping the dual suspension frame for stage / adventure races. Where does one find boost hardtail frames? Only one i can find is the Trek Procalibre on their website. however, the frame is priced at the cost of the full hardtail bike πŸ™ƒ
  4. Excuse me sir, but internal rim width on those ENVE's is wider than the wheels on my dual suspension mountain bike πŸ™ƒπŸ€£
  5. The website provides a percentage breakdown for refunds if the event is cancelled. Unfortunately, if the event was cancelled in the month it was to take place, which it did, there is no refund.
  6. Thank you! Mine was sent from Taiwan, took a little over a month by now. Will make a turn tomorrow. I did not receive an option to courier it through a company with DHL when I logged my warranty claim πŸ₯²
  7. Hi Hubbers, Does anyone know where SAPO ZA63803 is located? Trying to Track down my BOA warranty order, thanks.
  8. You can remove the valve core on both presta and schrader valves, I removed by daughters schrader valve on her 16 inch tube and inserted stans sealant. Another option is to insert a tyre liner between the tube and tyre. I used to MTB (marathon bike) with with a tyre liner before going tubeless and I my tubes did not puncture. Used to ride a lot on table mountain and kirstenbosch. Even raced with the tyre liner, it is very effective.
  9. They are from a set of Token C28 wheels. No pics on my phone at the moment
  10. I can, but it depends on the quality of the spokes (if it does not need to be replaced), also, whether the spoke count matches the hubs, 20 / 24.
  11. Will send him a message and see if he can assist, thank you.
  12. I only see complete wheel sets Barry, thanks for the recommendation. I have never imported wheels, there are some good deals on Chain reaction. what is the import duty on the wheels? e.g. Prime 50mm wheelset works out to be approx R6500, I think without VAT?
  13. Thanks @jbr I am aware of Darkhorse, Csixx only has disc brake rims.
  14. What bike shops sell carbon rims on its own? I have ceramic bearing hubs to build a wheelset. I am looking for 50mm carbon rims with a rim brake surface.
  15. No address for their office. No company details on their website I have never come across an SA store that out right states that they do not do drop shipping. No credit card (mastercard / Amex ect.) security protection / guarantee to secure transactions. Free shipping on all products. Red flags?
  16. This event clashes with Race to Sea πŸ™ƒ
  17. Someone on Tik Tok has provided excellent guidelines on how to deal with this particular scam, where an Uber driver is part and parcel in collecting the goods. These guidelines are applicable within South Africa's jurisdiction. https://vm.tiktok.com/ZSevwAYBN/
  18. Out of interest, where and how was the bike stolen @cdreyer? Happy you recovered the bike!
  19. https://www.easybike.co.za/oakley-flight-jacket-steel-photochromic.html Please beat the price of R2400 I came across on another site. and: https://www.easybike.co.za/oakley-radar-ev-advancer-matte-black-photochromic.html
  20. Hi Hubbers, First time wanting to purchase a power meter, looking at purchasing a single sided, left arm Sram GXP Power Meter. Is the above enough, or do you require the spindle as well?
  21. First time I am hearing about this path, I am trying to see what segment you are referring to on Strava, is it this one?
  22. Chappies ????
