Cippo

Was thinking this too.

Which wheel in particular is the problem? I would think the Mavics are pretty similiar in dimensions.

A good secondhand one is close, that is if owner wants to let it go.

What size bike are you after. Check this CAAD 10 56cm at Bikelane in SaltRiver. https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/55420-cannondale-caad10/

Wonder if OGE still going to keep him on as a technical advisor. Is he not there sprint coach?

Lot of things to consider including age and price. If it comes without components and wheels you can spec those lighter, especially wheels and you should dip under 8kg. How long do you want to keep it and is it worth upgradig such an older frame with high spec parts.

What frame is it? Is it painted/ unpainted? Fork full carbon or with alu-steerer? Isp or trad- seatpost?

I would say light is under 1100g and sub 400g for fork.

If its comfort you want with responsiveness go for the Scott CR1. The only aluminium bike that should be considered over a carbon frame is the CAAD 10.

Fondriest needs to sponsor Lampre and get rid of those ugly Meridas. It is rumored that each team member drops 100W average in power when riding a Merida.

That TF Zero definitely needs Campy as it's really made in Italy. The rest is 'ok ish' with Shimano.

Congrats Tri and Super. Was a bit busy there basking in the glory of beating ' Dale. Awesome team choices.

What is the chance of him winning World's? If Slovakia can send a decent team with him and finish is not your average flat sprint, maybe.

Schmaak them shoes.

Thanks a million Gerald. Awesome skills there. 'Dale , what can I say. Strong finish on your side bru. Take it easy on me on the road.

Get a basic Ergofit (R300-350) and get her proper size from their before purchasing. Try this fit calculator in the meantime. http://m.competitivecyclist.com/

Contador has a bone to pick at the Vuelta. World Champs first though.

We might wear lycra but this sport ain't for sissies.

What a tour! Unforgetable.

What is this T de F you talk of?

Its coming down to the wire. ' Dale has 382 points in 36th place. I'm sitting in 25th with 403 points. Only 21 points seperating us.

I see from invoice you paid R6106.20 in total for custom, duties and vat. I punched the Euro value plus insurance into a Duty Calculator app on Istore and it kicks back duties of R3101 (20%) and vat R2822 (15%) which normally includes handling fees and come up with R5923 which is close to your figures considering the exchange rate. I placed the tent under sport and leisure category where tents are listed with camping.

Was €270 just for insurance or does it include postage?

It's still their fault. They should have mentioned on their information bar that it is a live broadcast.

' Dale 42nd - 352 points. Cippo 23 rd - 382 points. Chasing hard bru, gap is closing. Two stages left.
