He has done 16,600km this year I think that is the lesson here...
Very odd, his user name seems so legit?

Awesome! Thank you so much for the feedback Theo. I hope you still enjoying the helmet.

Absolutely love it, shifting is a pleasure and perfect every single time. Much cheaper than both Shimano & Sram wireless products. imho, better solution than Di2 that still require electrical wiring (to "replace cables") and with AXS still the ultimate solution but at a hefty price point.
Did you purchase these locally or bring them in? What does the setup cost if you don't mind me asking?
32k for an aluminium DS bike with NX groupo, I have certainly lost touch on bicycle prices if this is a decent price.

If this was Bouhanni.....
I disagree, it was a slow line deviation and he didn't even look back to see he was going to be overtaken he looks forward up until he crashed.

Think they keep a record of alergies etc, more info than on the bracelet alone.... in which case there is significant costs to maintain a database and be available at all times that paramedics may need this info ...
At least that is what I heard decades ago ....
Would appreciate update info on this
I think you pay R37 a month for the membership, as far as i can tell.

but these okes must be making a fortune. the margins must be amazing.
I did some looking around, they all cost this much, so maybe I'm missing something.
and medicalert.co.za do still exist, but seemed to have missed the boat on this.
The medicalert "version" is considerably more expensive.....

Good day Everyone,
I am doing the Sani2C for the first time this year and are really looking forward to it.
Thanks in advance for everybody's input as some of the previous posts on the forum already helped me quite a lot.
I would just like some advise on the car shuttle/transport etc at the Sani2C Adventure event please.
We had a family member that would have gone with to drive our car from the Glencairn farm to Scottburgh. Unfortunately due to unforeseen reasons this family member can not go with anymore.
I contacted the car shuttle service organised by the local schools and they are unfortunately already fully booked but they would let me know when there is a cancelation.
My first question: Would someone go through the trouble to actually cancel their car shuttle booking if they won't be attending the event or if they won't be using the car shuttle service anymore, given the fact that you forfeit your payment as a donation to the school?
Second question: Are there anybody that will not by using their car shuttle service booking? Please would you be so kind to contact me as I would then like to get in contact with the shuttle organisers and ask them whether they can allocate me a spot.
Third question: Are there any other alternatives that I can explore? Except flying in as we would need our own car for a few days after the race.
Thanks again.

I just did a quick tally of what its all worth and the coffee is by far the most expensive item!
4 x Bars @ R25 = R100
Smoove = R130
Energade = R20
Buff = R20
Pepper Spray = R300
4 x Coffee @ R210 per KG = R840
Aliexpress glasses = R150
Total = R1560
I honestly wouldnt want R840 worth of coffee beans in cycling box!
Your numbers are a bit off wrt the coffee, they are 4 x 250g bags so 1kg in total. This is a proper scam!
Here you guys can see I have attached the screenshot about the things they promise on their FB page and all their Social media platforms. I have then also attached a pic of what I actually received. What's actually sad about this is that they didn't even bother replying to my email when I expressed my dissatisfaction of what they sent in regard to what they advertised.
Almost 1500 bucks for that? Proper taking this pi$$ if you ask me!
I Currently run Sram GX. Casette (10-50) and chain is less than 6 months old. As far as I am aware I will only need derailleur & Shifter? Price on google is around R25k

I would jump on this!
It appears the FreeSoul commented on a thread back in 2018 with a similar situation,
- Buying an unseen bike,
- selling on behalf of a friend
The Opening Post
"I recently had a terrible experience on the Bikehub, the seller has a 96% positive rating with a total of 28 ratings.
This led me to think that I could trust the seller, he stays in the Western Cape. It was my first time buying a bike without seeing, also my last."

I don't think I've seen you make one constructive comment on this topic, all you seem to do is stir **** and from the word go you have been against the OP it's like you have some sort of vendetta against FreeSoul.
What’s the quality like and do they work properly?
The photochromic lenses on the Rockbros adjust perfectly, i have Oakley Jawbreakers with Oakley photochromic lenses and to my untrained eye there is very little difference. I suppose the experts will tell you otherwise regarding the UV protection and so on, but i have really sensitive eyes and they both work really well for me. The Rockbros frame quality is also really good I'm very impressed overall.
The Rockbros photochromic are fantastic, got my Dad and myself a pair. Check out https://www.outdoorspace.co.za/collections/eyewear
Would you be able to contact me on 0833966814, much appreciated man.
Cool no problem, I will give you a call to arrange.
Hi guys, I need some help.
I am going to be running crankbrother egg beater peddles on my bike and with crankbrother you need those special cleats, does anybody know where I can find them at a good price ?
I have a set for you,they are virtually brand new. I switched over to look x-tracks soon after I bought new cleats and haven't looked back.
I think this may help, I've used the Momsen bike archives on all my Momsen's.
Awesome, thank you I will give them a call and see if they have stock.
