  1. Have you measured the fore foot angle ? I had similar issues and needed leg length shim on one side and 2° tilt on the other side
  2. 180mm on my crmo Tandem 26" fork
  3. 2 liter spray bottle with 3 drops of dish washing liquid and then hose it down works like a charm for me
  4. Why don't you check the used ones here in buy&sell ?
  5. Normal rails are round with a diameter of 7mm. The carbon rails of many saddles including the S are 7x9mm and need a different clamp but it looks like the Giant ISP is designed to take any 7x rails so you should be fine . Just to be safe ask Giant
  6. I have seen a advert from Mannies bike mecca on his FB page for a Westair special. No idea if it's a good deal but here is the link: https://www.facebook.com/manniesbikemecca/posts/4880204372004506
  7. My fav. definitely https://www.sks-germany.com/en/products/speedrocker/ unfortunately in SA that stuff costs almost double than in Europe
  8. I like their desperate positive thinking. They were not tested positive, they were tested "not negative"
  9. have you looked at FRM ? https://frmbike.net/prodotto/gold-spirit/
  10. I think Meezo took grip mounting to the next level. At a certain point of doing a back flip the logo is level , look at the photos later
  11. Sidi alsi makes some nice wider shoes . They call it mega https://sidi.com/en/products/cycling/shoes/mtb-mega
  12. A saddle is a very difficult thing to recommend . If you want to be absolute safe look for one which you can really test . On a 30 min ride almost all saddles are comfy.
  13. Ottendorf is also a DHL parcel hub
  14. depends on your proportions I'm 183 and ride a L feels great but I'm also on a very long stem, very close to a XL
  15. where exactly is the pain ? front back left right of the knee? both the same?
  16. had some assos, vermark , pearl izumi, giordana… but since the latest addition will nit touch them. its a 4mm thin padded bib from sqlab
  17. sounds very interesting but is it just 10 high passes or why is Sani pass (2867m) not on the list ?
  18. There are also some 35 degree stems around (adjustable ones are not really for offroad use) or riser bars with up to 3-4cm of rise
  19. i am very surprised that these decals are drawn by hand. I always thought they are all stickers ???
  20. I missed the big screen and live stream at the showground
  21. should be for granted to be picked up by other cyclists if you walk next to the road with a flat
  22. read this in a satiric magazine it's too funny : Fontenay-le-Comte (dpo) - What a sporting achievement! Austrian cycling pro Fritz Gauhuber (27) is the only undoped rider to complete the 201 kilometer first stage of the Tour de France. He is thus only ten days behind the peloton. Gauhuber, who initially collapsed completely exhausted and had to be treated medically, is now on the road to recovery. "I am very proud of my performance, for which I have been training hard for years," said the athlete a few hours later, still completely out of breath and shaken by convulsions. "Many say that it is impossible to get through the Tour de France without any doping, and I can tell all of them that at least the first of 21 stages is quite possible. Still completely exhausted from the 201 km: Gauhuber, who drives without sponsors, because no one wants to support a loser, also reports how hard the tour can be without doping: "At the sections where normally doped riders sprint for the mountain classification, it was sometimes so steep that I sometimes had to push my bike. Of course, this is really good on the calves, "said the fair athlete. In return, however, he had much more time to enjoy the beautiful landscape. As soon as Gauhuber, who after all received the so-called "clean jersey" for his services, has recovered completely, he wants to make the second leg from Mouilleron-Saint-Germain to La Roche-sur-Yon (182.5 km). Presumably, the race is over for the rest of the riders - either because they've tested positive for doping or because they have reached their destination after 3535 kilometers.
