  1. This is starting to sound like a dating site
  2. I have a 1 x 11 10t to 50t Garbaruk cassette and derailleur. 38t up front. Love it.
  3. Here is a carbon 1x11 Scott hardtail going for R10k asking price: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2033341837027413/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks
  4. Thanks very much for all the feedback gents. We are going in July as we are from KZN and will be in the Cape for another event. We are extending our stay by a few days to do the Cederberg Circuit. We'll need to take all weather gear I guess.
  5. My mate and I are bike packing the 250km Cederberg Circuit, over 3 days (approx. 80 km per day) in mid July 2023. Can anyone pls recommend *catered* accommodation en route? Most places seem to be self-catering. On day 1 in particular we need catered accommodation about 80km to 100km from Citrusdal. Thanks in advance.
  6. Have had terrible service on a new unit which was faulty. I will try Wahoo next time.
  7. I have been waiting a week now for a quote so I can place an order... the wheels are coming off with Bike Addict it seems. Was good while it lasted.
  8. Fair play - they admit wrong, apologise and promise to do better. Good response from them. Can't really ask for more.

    Amashova 2022

    Amashova is turning into a gravel / MTB race
  10. I think Admin should plug the hole that this thread has become. Put a seal on this discussion.
  11. With the exception of their bibshorts, which in my experience are worth every penny, their stuff is definitely overpriced. R4000 for a shirt, with no real benefit over other brands, is just silly.
  12. One would expect Momsen to respond here and to inspect the bike and take care of the issue.
  13. When will they be taking over? I really wish I could see and try on Lake shoes before buying.

    Squirt Lube

    Squirt lube has given me sticky chain links which don't move freely as designed. I no longer use it.
  15. Lots of laywers on here without law degrees.

    Ladies saddle

    Specialized Mimic Power Saddle for ladies is a great option.
  17. They also had LOTS of warning given covid hit our shores in March and TB was originally in August. They were not taken by surprise.
  18. It is also illegal. People seem to miss this. Did we agree to T's and C's allowing them to not refund in these circumstances? If not then they must refund us and cannot refuse to do so. If the terms are hidden somewhere then the CPA applies if not pointed out.
  19. I bought a new MTB from Cyclelab 3 months ago. Got a great deal but the setup they gave me was poor - the only way to describe it. I am based in KZN and am looking for someone who really knows what they are doing to give me a proper bike fit for a reasonable fee. I do a fair bit of long distance MTB riding so comfort and a proper fit is important to me. I am experienced enough to have made basic adjustments at home but my setup is close, but still not quite right. Are there any bike fit gurus that anyone can recommend?
  20. Covid hit in March 2020. TB was originally scheduled for late August 2020. If they incurred their costs before they belately postponed that is a result of bad planning by Ecobound. I have found them to be unprofessional in this process. Their approach of "no refunds" at this stage is unlawful because there is no clause in any T's and C's agreed to by riders allowing them to do so. The problem is it is not worth suing them for your entry fee. Bad planning and a greedy approach means the riders get screwed while they make their buck without putting on an event. How could they be so foolish to open the 2021 entries before holding the 2020 event? Now there will be little room for transfers (plus an undisclosed "admin fee") to 2021. Once again they make sure the riders take the loss while they smile at their profit.
