  1. Very impulsive decision to enter last night. Most unfit I’ve been for the joyride world championships so let’s see how far muscle memory and carbs can bring me😅
  2. Someone with a shimano 10 speed road shifter laying around? My Ultegra shifters are starting to miss shifts down where it just doesn’t click
  3. Shot thank you, I didn’t even think about temu yet. Let me do some googling as well. The more I think about it the more the frame bag sounds like a win
  4. Ah the joy of leaving your jocks at home, what an uncomfortable day in a pair of jeans. Yeah the HT is what I have, I am looking for a cheapish gravel bike but for now I'll have to do with what I have.
  5. The plan is to leave my extra set of vellies at work and then I should be able to leave my laptop at work as well. I am on a hardtail but not really space to mount anything on the bike
  6. Hi everyone, Any tips on bags that you use for commuting? Space for some shoes, laptop, clothes ? Then durable and somewhat waterproof?
  7. Wow he is so close to that silver
  8. Any updates on the podium?
  9. Bra don't get me started. I use that site at least every 2 weeks as I go down my illogical dream bike rabbit hole, may it be gravel, road, MTB or even monstercross
  10. This is after 3000km about. Is this normal or a defect?
  11. Hi Everyone, Any idea of how long these tyres last? Friend of mine have been using the Schwalbe indoor for the past 10 months. Let's say 1 hour a day three days a week. It starter developing bubble, Is this too soon or expected?
  12. Ah that would be the dream if one could cycle from Durbanville all the way to city center and be safe. A few years ago I cycled from Table view to waterfront as a student for about two months. All along the my city route. Looking back, it was definitely ignorance and youthful immortality thinking, but wow what a dream it was. There is just a different enjoyment to cycling too and from work, your brain just switches off. Most days I would arrive home not remembering what happened along the road. I would go as far as to say I would pay money to do that again if it means it would be safe.
  13. This I would say is your best option, shimano 12 speed. Set and forget about the gears, cheap to maintain. Rockshox air for the win and the bike looks cool.
  14. Good point, will try and get it through my work
