  1. Does anybody know where I can get a silver spokes for my SL's (think they are 2007 model). I broke a spoke about a month ago on the drive chain side of the rear wheel. I sent the wheel in to a workshop in the Tygervalley area and they replaced it, but when I arrived I was told that the supplier sent the wrong stock as the spoke was black not silver. I was told that they will order the silver ones but in the meantime I can ride with the black one. So its been more than a month now and everytime I enquire I am told that they are waiting for the supplier. Cyclelab also was going to order me one but I have now been waiting nearly 2 weeks for them as well. Can anyone perhaps help. CWC also do not have these.
  2. I have just about had enough now. A month and a half ago I experienced problems with my heart rate monitor (Polar S720i) in that the pick-up range was like 30cm instead of 1 meter. So I send the HR sensor and wearlink strap to Polar and the replace everything under guarantee. Now all of a sudden (since Saturday) abnormal high and low HR readings appear. After every ride I rinse the wearlink strap and sensor with water and dry it with a towel, but still experience this problem. What else can I do? Please help.Thanx
  3. Sweet and btw I like the couch I have two just like that
  4. That means its less than R5,500
  5. The only place I could get a strap the other day in Slaapstad was at Cycle Lab, think I paid R170 for it. My straps also last about a year and I have also been experiencing problems with the hr sensor. Bought a(sealed)battery at the chemist and still the unit would not pick up the signal if the sensor was further than 30cm away from the unit. Bought a new strap and still had the problem. Ended up sending everything to the agents and they just replaced the battery and it is now fine. So the only conclusion that I can make is that the battery I bought at the chemist was "below power", if that makes any sence. Anyone experience this as well.
  6. What is it with these polar products lately. I had a heart sensor replaced by the agents close to a year ago and now the same problem with the new sensor- it doesn't pick up if the sensor is further than 30cm away from the unit. So sent the sensor in after buying a new battery and strap and it would appear as if they replaced it again- have to go and pick it up this afternoon. BTW the turn around time of IHF is now 8 days Would appear as if alot of polar products have problems
  7. Had the BBB for more than 4 years no problem
  8. I thought Hansie was killed in a plane crash! Wonder who fixed this one?
  9. WE Bike het myne so 'n tyd gelede gedoen- die Ergofit storie en ja dink dit was so R500, maar dit was money well spent
  10. Those Novatec hubs are bomb proof and they run so smooth I still have a set on my sons bike and think in the 10 years that I've had them, had the bearings replaced once and I am a "dikgat"

  18. Ok this may be a bit way off- but I heard a bloke complain about speed wobbles as a result of slime that had hardened inside the tube.
  19. I am also in F, but will need a push going over the climbs
  20. I was thinking the same thing.
  21. Hoe sĂȘ hul by Cash Converters "kontant in die hand"

  23. I must agree, "Mr Dickens" talked for 5 minutes and actually said nothing I think they call it "the gift of the gab" or something
  24. Geesh got 1065m for the 99ner on Saturday and last years Argus was 1260m according to my Polar. So difference of about 200m.
