  1. It's purely a coincidence both bikes Ive hated are eBikes. Promise.😁
  2. I quite like that bike. Would not like to own it but the clean lines do appeal to me.
  3. The new coverage is a bit weird. The Whoop UCI insta is full of promos for the Jr racing but the Staylive coverage only has the elite advertised. I suspect that the Jr and qualifying may well be live on YouTube, but they are doing their best not to put that out there.
  4. This is surely one of the ugliest bikes out there? Or perhaps you disagree? Go wild.
  5. Wow, you poured cold water on that interaction 🙂
  6. Maybe the era of every brand trying to be Guchi or Jimmy Choo - i.e you pay for the name not what you're actually getting, is drawing to a close?
  7. Love the commentators who are late to the party, presumably because they're checking their grammar on chatGPT, and miss the point or humor in a comment they select to ridicule. It like make me lol
  8. I can confirm that the brake hoods are good quality and fitted the levers perfectly. They also survived my blunt force fitment procedure without tearing.
  9. Yep. I think I'll only use it for stuff I cant find here easily or at all. Its good to know they deliver and so far the quality seems reasonable.
  10. Just got delivery of my Shimano 5600 bracket covers ( not available here) and an Eroica cycling cap, for fun. Total cost delivered was about R365. The covers say Shimano and appear to be good quality and the correct fit for the levers I have.
  11. Ordered some roadie bracket covers and one of those weird roadie peaked caps - total about R300 and a bit. Was asked to pay R62 for vat and duty. Still waiting after about two weeks although an email from a courier claims by the 24th.
  12. That non-tech track provided some of the best racing we've ever been treated to. They need to dumb down all the other tracks and add 20 jumps 🙂 Rename it BMXCO ... Seriously though, great track and great efforts from the racers who displayed big engines and superb skills and style. Maybe need to call it DCXCO?
  13. Don't have the time to go back and read it all. Had to ride my bike!
  14. I'd say complex features and speed make it a technical course.id love to know what your definition of technical is if this isn't.
  15. U23 mens and women's on Youtjoop today at 1525 and later for the men's.
  16. This looks like a properly fun track. Check out the Pivot team track walk and ride videos.
  17. If you're just riding jeep track and decent gravel roads, a HT is just fine. If its a bit rougher you will need to get used to it but a fat rear tyre (2.4 on up) is a good idea. I run a 26" enduro HT at Tokai sometimes and have also fitted an insert at the rear (Nukeproof). This combo makes a big difference to the felt impacts of rough terrain,
  18. You sound like a candidate for a decent gravel bike. Either that or just buy a cheap road bike for the weekly commute/tar rides.
  19. Hey, i'm also old, and according to my son, fat, although i disagree with the latter.
  20. You just do it on the job. Take stuff apart and try put it back together. If you can't you ask someone who can and after breaking things and stripping threads you'll eventually learn what not to do. Just don't start on your Epic 8 S works. Same applies to cars. 😉
  21. Jeez, you okes are old and fat 🙂
  22. I so want to like nerdy Ric, but he's just so irritating and his attempts to Warnerize his commentary is laughable. I'd be happy with Olli and Bart and a guest every now and then...
  23. Yes, I'm happy with the service even without an app BUT, look at how GCN + was canned. Just now Supersport make WBD an offer they can't refuse and SA gets geo blocked on the Staylive stream.
