  1. Orbea is brought in by MoreCorp aka Cycle Lab. I've only heard of one issue where a battery died on a nearly new Rise. Customer had to wait for quite some time to get a replacement but everything has been good since
  2. Thanks! I’ll drop @droo a PM
  3. No worries man, thanks for checking 👍🏻
  4. @Alouette3 don't suppose you have any Reverb Stealth hose connectors as per the pic below? I need to convert mine from Connectamajig to the standard connector. Cape Cycles don't have anything.
  5. Anyone have a damaged Rockshox Reverb Stealth they are looking to get rid of? I need the connecting hardware as per the pic below:
  6. @Rushdee be careful man. There is a very good chance your details are going to be used to scam the next person or to apply for loans etc. Speak with your bank and maybe Transunion to see if they can get hold of you if any applications are submitted with your details
  7. Either way someone gets robbed
  8. Custom Bikes is the new Yeti Agent. Same people who bring in Hope

    947 Ride Joburg

    Did a 3:08 last year, seeded in I for this year. I'm not too clued up on how the seeding works, is I ok or should I be asking to go earlier? I would like to go for a sub 3
  10. I'm thinking more like Bentleys, Ferraris etc. Pay a fortune and then take a bath
  11. Same can be said for anyone buying a high end car
  12. One flaw in that video is comparing a pretty entry level motorbike to a pretty high end MTB. Otherwise I think they nailed it
  13. That Motul oil will work 100% and will probably be 10x cheaper than the Rockshox stuff
  14. DRI in the Vrystaat
  15. Been a happy Kickr user for the last 4 years. One unit replaced cause bearings crapped. The local guys had my new unit with me within a few days after submitting a claim on their system, no questions asked. If the bearings go again I'll find an engineering works to fit some new ones cause I'm out of the warranty period now. The belt is a generic item that can be sourced a lot cheaper than the official Wahoo agents. I'd love tp get the new Kickr Move, but there is still loads of life in my current Kickr. I've used mine with Zwift, Sufferfest and a few other apps with no issues around compatibility at all
  16. Local distributor will deny there is an issue and no warranty claims will be entertained....
  17. I also struggled initially with the slick version. This weekend I installed a new set, but changed to Muc Off rim tape and they snapped into place first time
  18. Rythym is a very good fork and has thicker uppers than the equivalent 36 Performance and Elite models so is stiffer. Going up 10mm is easy and can be done with a R1500 air shaft. No need for a whole new fork. If you are feeling like you are too far over the front, or the front is too low, a higher rise bar and shorter stem can also do the trick to raise the front end of the bike.
  19. Picked up a 2022 Trance X E+ 1 on sale earlier this year. Great bike with great spec. No way it is being moved on any time soon!
  20. Booked and paid. Looking forward to this one
  21. Given their apathy towards the Norco brand, I don't think Cube will be making any impact at all
  22. I've got a couple pairs up for sale in the classifieds if you have a UK 9.5 sized foot. Specialized 2FO and FiveTen Freerider Pros
  23. and now the boss says something different. But Pat knows best!
  24. Confirmed with my Pyga contacts that they have different rockers between the frames. The Hyrax kinematics don't play nicely with a longer stroked shock. Probably not the end of the world, but worth keeping in mind. Apologies for the hijack
  25. Changing the stroke of the shock does nothing for the angles as the eye to eye length remains the same. I'll ask Barry why he said the conversion is not possible 🤷‍♂️
