  1. Dont mess around go and have it checked out there are many things that can cause it, hopefully it is just something minor but dont leave it.

    road bike

    Buy from Cyclelab they have a 30 day swop out policy if you dont like the bike swop it for something else
  3. ok so it was the reflectors on my wheels, and not the triple chainring everyone laughed about at the start of the race
  4. 1hill@aTime your Fudge packer had me in stitches good one
  5. I see that you do have a power meter! So if you train properly and for arguments sake do 20 Min interval at 300w on a farm gate that weighs 15Kg and then do the same thing on a 6.8Kg beast your workout is exactly the same although your speed varies, if you ride with someone of same weight + ability on above mentioned bikes at same speed one will ride at threshold and the other way anaerobic, and will end up going backwards in training. Use your power meter dont listen to all the other garbage!
  6. To ride the heavier bike at the same speed as the lighter bike you would need to generate more power. if you are training with a power meter and using it properly the weight does not make a difference as has been noted 300w is 300w. in a race the heavier bike would be slower.
  7. Cyclelab you can join online as well www.cyclelab.com
  8. It is now 2008 (believe it or not) The cycling industry is stuck in a paradigm and the the current model of doing business is changing and a lot of people stuck in a comfort zone are kicking against it! Unfortunately some good people may be lost, but that is business! Expect to see more online Shops and more wholesale warehouses direct to the public, as low margin higher volume stores take over. Why did we stop shopping at the corner cafe and go to pick n pay. The small pharmacy with unrealistic margins is dying I now go to Dis Chem for better deals sure I miss the warm fuzzy feeling of personal attention but I go back to Dis Chem There probably will be a market for boutiuqe type personal bike shop's but I believe the industry players must Adapt or Die.
  9. Jason no wonder you havent sold it that frame looks like it has a crack
  10. Hi Phen you cant copy from ipod back to PC with iTunes You can however find free software to do it and I think ipod explorer is one of them try google it or go to www.ipodlounge.com and you will find something there
  11. The sad part of it all is the rest of the team, Robbie Hunter for one who worked there butts off dont get any of the prize money now!
  12. I see SRam is in the process of wanting to purchase Zipp Should be interesting product range! SL-C2007-09-23 08:19:10
  13. CSA will have a lot more income from the new cyclosport licences and a portion of that can be used for each province, to test a certain amount of club/league ,Provincial and Classic races. Youll be suprised that people even cheat at club level races
  14. Did anyone here do the Hunter Allen power training seminar, and was it worthwhile?
  15. Do you work for Probike Mampara? as you always seem to be advertising
  16. With the extra income from cyclosport licences we can give each region a dope testing budget to test a certain amount of races from club races to regional to national events.
  17. Not to shabby at all but it probably cost them more than that to be there. I was watching Gary Player being interviewed and he made a statement that Ernie Els and Retief Goosen together have made more money out of golf than all the Sportsman in SA put together, and went on to say that what sport should you encourage your child to Play! It makes me very happy to see TBW way ahead of some serious competition
  18. I am so sick of all the doping stories I was planning to go on one of the tours to the TDF next year, but now I am seriuosly reconsidering spending +/- 30K on watching a bunch of dopeheads. I can go to the Grahamstown festival and check out all the junkies there and save a lot of money!
