Fun day out ! .Sending wishes to the lady who got her wheel wedged in the drain/grating on the first left turn and had a very nasty fall, hope all is alright. Disappointed that there was only Coke Zero at the end?, or was that just me? Took me close to 30 min before I could send some sugars back in my body. Lots of congestion exiting the field at the finish AND no beers at the bottom beer tent for a good 30min. tbh the after race vibe wasn’t as good as I hoped, both down stairs and up. and agreed to the dodgey car guards. Road condition , road closure, mechanical support and water point staff were all top notch. Oh, I was tailing a ballie for a couple meters and he sent one out of his nose which I received all the blowback . When I proceed to tune him next time move to the side , he said “ f0£ off I shouldn’t be up his arse”. I legit think he did it on purpose, is this a common thing? Yrr

Thank you ROlf!!

Other info - tapered headset, boost spacing.

Good day , I’m trying to identify this frame, it has had a custom respray. I have added a few photos to help. The down tube has a bit of a geometric shape (not rounded). It has a serial number , but nothing comes up on the net. Appreciate any help.

However 9 out of 10 times. its an into, middle and end... buyers leave it at that, and you never hear from them again..

Am i the only one who gets ''Is It Available?'' and then no further reply or interest after that?, its like loads of hubbers are just out there to see the availability of items and not really interest in purchasing them????. My question is : how do we deal with that? Do we just keep calm and say yes?, or make the first line in your ad description ''if the ad is up it is available '' , or give the buyers a poor rating after just asking and then ghosting? On the latter, with regards to ratings, what if you give a buyer a poor review for a reason, as mentioned above, and out of spite he gives you a bad review. is there anything you can do with regards to that? PS - Perhaps Bikehub could come up with a feature were you can update the status/availability of your ad daily or after a few days.

Reviving this. Looking for a carbon repair in GAUTENG area (Jhb/pta), i have heard of CBR, but heard they can be pricey. Tried to get hold of bespoke carbon but not answer (perhaps closed these days?), can anyone recommend anyone “smaller” guy that does carbon repairs? Not looking for fancy art work, just want the frame repaired so I can ride the bike!

Perfect thanks man

Thanks man. Do you perhaps know if I can change it from the full to the 40km at registration? Or would you have to pay a fee?

Hi hubbers. If you have an entry for the full 94.7, is it possible to drop down and start with the guys (even if it’s at the back) for the 60km ride?

Glad to hear that then! Thanks man

Thanks man, any chain slips or anything there? And what size front and rear chainrings you running ? And how you finding that? I was planning a 18t rear, and 32 front . Most riding is on flat

Alright thanks for that, parts haven’t arrived just yet when they arrive I will have a look and fiddle! Thanks

Hoping I can get some advice. I’m wanting to convert to SS. I recently just purchased a chain tensioner , a 18t rear chainring/cog and spacers for the freehub . I’m wanting to know if I can put a 10 speed chain on this set up? Or will I require a SS chain? And if yes, hoekom? - also, roughly what tension / length should the chain be? Or will the chain tensioner sort that out? Thanks In advance for any tips or advice!

I have got 2 GoPro heros 3s. Used quite often for the first half of the year and then on the odd occasion for a while after that and for the last 2/3 years have barely touched it. However I think having one of the newer versions could make it more user friendly and result in using it more often. (Side note if you looking for buy a second hand hero 3 hit me up haha)

My vitus duralinox, believe it’s from 1979, below is a link to a nice read of the history https://on-the-drops.blogspot.com/2016/12/the-peugeot-px-10du-vitus-979.html?m=1

I have a 30t NW DM chainring for sram, that came with my bike and out grew that very fast, probably done less than 200km. Anyone want to swap it for a used 34T of same spec? Based in kzn.

I’ve been following this since day one, and learnt so much! Really cool project man!
