Single Track

Saturday morning...

Hi all. Trying my luck here... I am looking to borrow a 3/4 bicycle towbar fitted bike rack where the bikes stand upright. I have 4 Thule ProRide 591's which you can use in the meantime. Trying to avoid taking 4 bulky bikes on my roof all the way to uniondale. I am based in Cape Town. Should anything happen to the rack I will buy you a new one. Dont mind giving you the money wheñ I borrow the rack then you give it back when I return it?.

Bike recovered. It was stolen. It is not an accusation, just common sense.

Great to hear this!!! That made posting the picture well worth the effort!!! Sarah, I have sent you my cell number before reading this. Good luck dealing with the police, keep me updated.

Spot on, they paid R500.

I visit them almost daily and good bikes just about never come up.

It is a scam! Gor a mate to go to his "house" and guess what, nobody there was selling a bike.

Can someone tell me if the pic I attached is showing? Using my useless tablet! Picture should show frame, rear shock and trail and tar sticker.

This bike must be stolen. Arrived at cash crusaders yesterday and they cant sell for a week due to "police clearance" Bike has wireless computer sensor but no screen. I was in a hurry so just snapped 2 pics. It has a distinct Trail and Tar sticker on the frame. apparently price will be R2000. If you can describe the bike to me(components) I will tell you which cash crusaders to go to.

Thanks for all the advice. And if I get it set up and have a few practise rides- 1) Will it improve my time sig ificantly compared to mtb with slicks? 2) Is R4000 a good enough price that I may be abke to recoup after the ride?

Really? Why do you say I will enjoy it more? Ive never ridden a road bike...

I know close to nothing about road bikes but want to buy one for the argus. l've found a trek 1.2 on gumtree for R4000. From what ive googled it is very uch an entry level bike. I am ok with that but want to know if i will be abke to sell it and get my money back after the argus? Basically, is R4000 a good orice? they cost R10500 new at sportsmans. please forgive my typing, using a problematic tablet.

Hi all, The argus will be my first road race ever and today I realised that my bike, being 2x10, may work against me... I absolutely hate road riding(because of the other road users) but decided to man up and enter the argus. Will riding 2x10 make getting a good time in the Argus a big challenge? Should make a plan to get a road bike?

Eish!

Hi Meezo, I may take you up on your offer - Just checking if Madlight has SPD's or Eggbeaters. Where are you based?
