  1. Assos is the best. You'll waste your money trying something else, the guys at cyclesharp are the best when it comes to apparel imo https://www.cyclesharp.co.za/product-category/assos/
  2. Lets put this whole thing behind us, come ride the epic with me 2021, finish it, and regain your honor.
  3. Slightly off topic there, I was simply making sure you are aware that the greatest Mountain Biking event in the world is about to start. Ill make sure of this for many years to come. But, for once you might be right, back packing in Europe might have been a better Idea this time round
  4. The world comes to a standstill as the MTB race that measures all is about to start. Take a bow.
  5. Sorry, like I tell my staff, dont present me with problems, come to me with solutions
  6. Mavic is a very bad buy these day’s, confirm with your lbs..i promise
  7. Strategically you're absolutely right.. however, I am addressing OP’s perception regarding the role of weight in bikes & cycling
  8. 1st off, you're wrong, a few points : - Most riders will never be on the level to understand what a difference it actually makes, 99% of riders go to a shop, pick up a heavy bike for 30k vs a light bike for 140k, and make a decision, they don't know ****.. - Let me inform you, and remember this. There is a huge difference between body weight and rotational weight, so 2 riders exact same weight, one loses 2kg’s of belly fat and the other one loses 2kg’s on his bike, wheels ect ect.. Do I need to explain to you who will see the biggest improvement? I hope the intraweb and all members familiarize them selfs with point nr 2. -i will say this, with mtb’s it makes less of a difference than road bikes, example: Lets say you riding your tommasini plaas hek with your 10mm mavic wheels vs a guy with a Bianchi XR4 and Bora Ultra 50mm’s, both pushing exactly 270 watts, the guy with the XR4 is gonna pull away from you like your youth. Luckily after reading this you at least know why. Its my pleasure.
  9. No offense dude but thats just a plain pale not good looking green. Cost for that paint is 100ZAR. Labour is no more than one hour on that. Hope you took some Vaseline. Bogus put real gold on my bike for R2500.
  10. Carbon bike repair Centurion/Joburg quoted me 23k for a small carbon repair job and paint job limited to 3 colors. Bogus charged me 5k. Faken Arseholes. So happy I went with bogus
  11. Specifically referring to the guys in Joburg.
  12. Will never support them again!!! Their excessive pricing makes me sick, do yourself a favour and compare a quote between them and bogus which is the best if you dont believe me!
  13. For me its certain shops for certain things, there are winners in each category, categories are : Best Shop to buy Giant & Pyga local Best shop to buy Cannondale local Best shop for a bike service local Best shop to buy Assos online Best shop to buy Parts online Best shop to buy Santa Cruz local Certain Spez shops are better than others local Best shop to buy Accessories online Sorry There are 100’s of brands to mention, but I dont care for them Depending on what I need, ill go to the shop who specializes in whatEver I need, my opinion
  14. Dealt with them before. Not good
  15. Donno why, but i like this race. A lot
  16. Cant comment or ask as I have not done the event. But Kudu’s to this guy, incredible achievement! Respect
  17. Ja bra, you have a point with the backloggers and its true, but the redirect part is a k@k storie
