  1. Nice gravel adventure today around the midlands in the heat. Notties - mooiriver - karkloof - notties. I called it a day after beer at karkloof
  2. Was a scorcher in the valley today! Karkloof country club may have run out of beer after our stop there.
  3. And yet we still use a pedal that has a clip..... [emoji23] But call it a clip less pedal
  4. Another one I don't get, how is it a clip less pedal, when you clip your shoe into it
  5. I'm running a 40t up front and an 11-42 on the back and I've found it fine for everything I've had to climb, several trips into the berg and it's been 100s.... And on the flats it's more than enough. In an ideal world I'd run a 38 up front and one of those e13 9-42 cassettes, but I don't see the need to change for the sake of changing while my current gearing is newish and working
  6. Lake make a wide version of their shoes, which is veeery wide
  7. Some midlands gravel grinding over the weekend
  8. I've only ever wanted 45c/50c at Holla trails on some very deep sand... If I was to stick to tar and gravel roads, I would most likely go 32c or 38c gravel kings
  9. The interesting question is if it does go ahead, do you qualify for kona 2021 in the November race or does the usual April edition have the qualifying slots?
  10. I've never heard of that model, I'm assuming it's actually the adv skin 5? I run in the adv skin 12 and really enjoy it!
  11. Just put in an order to see shipping costs and time line, R250 and over a week for shipping, which I assume means it's shipping from overseas (some of my other nikes did this when I ordered online). That's exactly why I wouldn't mind trying a pair, I could never get the Pegasus to work for my feet.
  12. I see the Nike trail 2 just dropped on the website... Does this mean it'll be available in store or only online?
  13. If you are going to try headlamps, I chose mine as it had the strap atop your head, so it doesn't slide down. Something to consider. That's weird, I actually feel safer in the dark on my bike compared to in the day, the lights actually work properly and are much more visible, I've confirmed this while driving and seeing other cyclists ride with lights on. The main downside is higher probability of drunken fools driving around in the early hours of the morning.
  14. I just use a head lamp, but a decent one (nitecore hc60) and it works great. I've seen people with essentially a head touch but on a waist strap and that seems to work OK.
  15. I just weighed my fork with thru axle, 1460g. My bike weighs 11.5 ready to ride (with little saddle bag and lights attached) , but it has a lauf fork on it...
