  1. Whats wrong with Campy ? Huh! Huh!
  2. I have a Mastercraft set bought from Makro. Its there house brand and lifetime warranty. If you want to buy more sockets or spanners to add to your collection they are readily available and well priced. If you are not going to use it everyday like a full on workshop does then it will last you for years. You can have a look at there catalog online and they have great tool drawers to buy later. I have had mine for more than 5 years already and not one socket or spanner stripped or broken.
  3. Sorry had to edit that post, forgot the Campy bits.
  4. Its the Colnago's with Campy bits.
  5. Nice finish with Italian livery.
  6. Btw, www.festinashop.co.za is having 10% off all Festina Tour de France edition watches.
  7. I have been trying to find out when the 100th Anniversary will be launched if there is going to be one.
  8. Some specials http://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/mavic-ksyrium-equipe-wheelset?quicktabs_1=1#quicktabs-1
  9. Sometimes you see a mag has hit the shelves already and Zinio has'nt recieved it yet. Love it though, I used to have boxes of old cycling magazines stacked away. Now its all on my tablet.
  10. Contador and Sagan. I dont see Sky backing Froome all the way with Wiggo exiting Giro. Cav is the fastest but Sagan is the better overall sprinter across all stages. Bring on Le Tour.
  11. Light wheels were discussed awhile back but cant find thread now in Tech QA. Lightweight means probably below 1500g and as other have mentioned it dont come cheap. A pair of Mavic Aksiums which are bombproof wheels weigh in at 1800g and they cost new about R2900. Your best bet for lightweight and cheap are maybe a secondhand pair of Darkhorse or Chinese blanks. Check Chinese thread for advice. Even second hand wheels gonna be over R4000. Zipp 404's weigh about 1700g and even those second hand a few years old are under 10000 if you lucky to find a pair. Rather save up a bit longer and get some bang for your buck instead if settling for R4000 of dissapointment.
  12. Thanks for the mention but it's 'Cippo ' with two P's.
  13. Designers are in Europe, company started by a Saffer, Mark Blewitt. Frames are then manufactured at their own facilities in Asia and headquarters are in Asia. I have seen a few of the bikes here in racing groups. Seems pretty solid. Bikeradar have reviewed them and consistently gave them 4,5 stars. Similiar setup I think to Silverback but comparitively up there with the best of the top end bikes according to international reviews.
  14. A reason to ride MTB, Twenty IX or C29?
  15. Scwheet, now just a Fizik Cannondale Team saddle.
  16. Your Look would 'LOOK' stunning, whats stopping you?
