  1. 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.
  2. 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?
  3. This event clashes with Race to Sea 🙃
  4. 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/
  5. Out of interest, where and how was the bike stolen @cdreyer? Happy you recovered the bike!
  6. 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
  7. 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?
  8. 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?
  9. Chappies ????
  10. Schwalbe Rocket Ron 2.1 both front and back
  11. I also run a kickr core and Dell laptop, had the same issues with Wifi. Since I started using a LAN cable, no issues. Zwift even loads immediately, as it previously took sometimes between 10-25 minutes with the WIFI to load to the pairing screen.
  12. My Scalpel
  13. For those who have been to the expo... Any good deals to look out for? Planning on going tomorrow.
  14. Thanks DJR thought I would take the opportunity as there was no wind to blow the bike over

  16. I agree. I had a 32x46 as well. On the 40 tooth it was ok, but as soon as you jump to 46 tooth, you spin and go nowhere! Can't remember where I read it wrt ratios. But the 34x50 will still give the same effect or you will still spin as much like the 32x46. I think going 36 in front would be perfect to fully utilise the range?

  18. I don't think you can be subtle with anything XX1 related ????
  19. Completely understand the bling factor! seems like the XX1 chain is very strong based on previous comments
  20. That is a lot of mileage -cK-! what bike / group set you riding?
  21. What group set you have on your road bike? interesting. What percentage wear is it recommended to change the chain? I do not have a chain checker tool / know how it works.
  22. Has anyone compared the XX1 and GX?
  23. Since the cost of these cassettes and chains are expensive... Has anyone replaced their cassette's / chain? If you have / haven't changed same, what mileage have you covered thus far?
