In the end, as always, it is not about the bike. Put Stander on any bike, He will still be in the top 5 of the olympics. And again it depends on the terrain and type of racing you do. In the end it is all about who is the better rider, not what bike you ride. A real painter can piant with any brush and still be great.
All I can say is don't ride a normal rocket ron when it is flattish. Had a slow punctured, was still able to ride it(or so I thought) First fast turn I took the tyre jumped of the rim because of the soft side walls. Was a very painful experience. I like the Racing Ralph evo Snakeskin, but hate the Ron.
You will have to find someone in the same class as yourselve. I you are Burry Stander and you "just want to finish comfortably " you will kill the strongest of amateurs

I cycle from Centurion to my offices in Woodmead. We have showers and lockers at the offices, so keep clothes and accesories there. I keep of main roads as far as possible and mtb helps with keeping on the ground beside the road.
I am trying to import some stuff from dealextreme. It should be free shipping to here, but I am not sure about the import tax. If I buy 50$ worth of electronics from them, would it be worth shipping it from overseas? Can anyone tell me how the import tax works and is there anyone who imports from dealextreme who could give some advice?
