  1. Didnt know they had a weight limit on them. Thankfully I weigh less than 75kg.
  2. Send it back to them and let them pay the pnp. They messed up not you
  3. Best is to read reviews on anything before buying. Sites like roadbikereview and bikeradar are always good. Weightweenies have forums where member discuss everything to death. One good thing about Americans they test everything and wanna tell everyone about it after.
  4. If you are running SRAM pair them with a 1070 Road cassette (quieter than the 1090) and you got a good set of wheels. If you prefer Shimano run with DA.
  5. I have a pair of these, http://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/mavic-ksyrium-elite-wheelset. 1550g for under R6000.
  6. Wheels should be first option to go lighter, rotational mass, power to weight ratio. Btw, Conti Gp4000s and Vittoria CX clinchers are about the lightest tyres you can get. About 205-210g per tyre.
  7. IMO I have found Mavic SLS to be best all round in terms of weight and price. Aluminium brake surface, so no fancy pads needed. Light at just under 1400g. Reliability and a good brand. A pair of Zipp 202's at that weight is over R20000.
  8. My gunsteling is Ristretto en Indriya. Ek maak gewoonlik 'n double shot In die oggend voor werk.
  9. Bianchi Oltre XR2. Standard or disc brakes.
  10. Bouhani and Viviani have been kocking on the door. Definitely the more challenging sprints would be going to Sagan as Cavndish is more suited to the really flat finishes.
  11. I see Cancellara has pulled out of TdF to concentrate on World Champs( or is that old news). I think the Shacks team TT is going to suffer because of it. No one is rooting really for Andy. Takes alot of pressure off him, hopefully he can get a stage win.
  12. Yellow saddle courses if you are in Gauteng. Down here in Cape there is a new outfit that will be teaching basic maintenace. I have the Bicycling book and have found it very useful. Only problem is it doesnt come with tools. https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/126583-iride-africa-introduces-mechanics-courses-in-cape-town/ http://www.yellowsaddle.co.za/
  13. @ gummi, is €2600 alot for a 800g wheelset?
  14. I see yours and raise you with my 800g ax-lightness Ultra.
  15. I think all the yoga loving peeps are after the chai actually. I brought some coffee back from UAE with the cardamon in and you can only have it black to appreciate it. Im sure it would rate as a 15 on Nespresso scale.
  16. I actually prefer the caramel and vanilla. I wasnt blown away by the chocolate. Who voted for the next flavour. I see the masala chai with cinnamon and aniseed is leading by 56% , ciocorrosso at 29%.
  17. bike24.com advertising them for €2015. Love the matte black finish.
  18. Everything is second to 'Lightweight'.
  19. I dont have an issue with someone posting wheels or frames if they post it as a blank.

  22. Sold out already on large Mille?
  23. No Mille shorts on special? Please?
  24. I did that on purpose so they could pick on me and I could beat the crap out of them and claim self defense.
