  1. Can anybody clarify this, is Suikerbosrand Nature Reserve open to cyclists or not. Have you ridden it this month? Please not heresay just confirmation please. I have tried calling unsuccesfully. Thank you
  2. Hey Fillip Sorry to hear about your incident, Heal up soon buddy. Group rides from now on only
  3. I want to give a shout out to Wayne from rapide (yet to meet the guy) I recently purchased a single speed bike that needed a few new rings and chain etc. So after riding it on the Sunday and wondering where can i get the replacement bits in a hurry and knowing i wouldn't be able to pop out during the week as i was busy at work i decided to try this inter net ordering thing . Expecting no feedback and little customer service as i knew Rapide was a local supplier using local courier i was not expecting much in terms of customer satisfaction from service etc, but i needed the parts and wanted to ride my bike that upcoming weekend so i took a chance. By 18:30 pm Monday night i had browsed the lekka web site, contemplated the teeth of the rear and front rings and finally decided what ratio i wanted so clicked ,ordered my new gears, chain, and hell i saw a nice 720mm control stick so took 2 of those as well ,swiped the credit card so to speak and then wondered , will i ever get the stuff , will it be correct etc . Any way to cut a short story long Within 15 minutes i had an email from Wayne ....not from an automated bot response ,as i needed to query an item so emailed back and got a answer on my order. And wait for it here is the firecracker whistles and fireworks moment!! by 14:00 on the Tuesday afternoon all my bits had arrived correctly and the Courier guy was even all smiles .... So all i can say is i am chuffed to use a local supplier who is helpful uses good couriers and delivers on what they promise. GOOD SERVICE

  8. I am really keen to build a single speed, where is the best local bet to get everything one needs? Sorry for hi jack
  9. I recently rode my mates single speed, and really enjoyed it. Id like to try build a nice one but on a tighter budget. Where can i find a chinese carbon frame , not a dodge one (or are they all dodge?) Looking to build it as light as i can . I currently hav a set of wheels, so looking for the rest of the bike in parts seen a few items in the classifieds, but where else is a good place to start looking ? Thanks all advice will be appreciated
