  1. Does anyone know where I can find a carbon rim (just the rim, 38mm preferably) in Cape Town. I melted my back rim over the weekend and can't wait a month for a new one from China.
  2. Would you guys mind putting the Large on sale as well?
  3. Think this is the longest climb in SA: https://www.climbbybike.com/climb.asp?Col=Du-toits-kloof-pass-extension&qryMountainID=15802 Take a left at the top of Du Toits, scale the biggest gate you'll ever see (wrapped in barb wire), and there is a 5km climb to the Telkom tower at the top. Probably the closest thing to an Alpine climb we have. Narrow tar road, super steep switchbacks, obviously no traffic. Fantastic views. Average gradient is 9%, but that is a bit misleading as there are two short flat/downhills sections which reduces the average somewhat.
  4. Why dont you guys join Tablemountainbikers (www.tablemountainbikers.co.za). The whatsapp group has over a hundred members on and is very active. There are standing morning and night rides on Table Mountain, as well as ad-hoc rides being organized over weekends, etc.
  5. Please put the Conti GP4000IIs back on sale!
  6. Took my strap to Navworld last week. If it's a HRM mk1, 3 or 4 they will replace it free of charge. For some reason Garmin does not warrantee the Mk 2, but Navworld gave me a new one at halfprice - came to R560.
  7. Shimano Road Cleats fit on the VA wattbikes - or obviously SPDs on the other side.
  8. Same happened to mine after about 4 rides (half on the road!). Took it back to This Way Out and they exchanged it for a nice pair of winter gloves - no questions. It is specifically the ones without padding with the synthetic suede type fabric that seem to be really crap.
  9. Thanks for the cassette, got it. http://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/shimano-ultegra-6800-11spd-cassette If you could put those compact Ultegra chainrings on sale it would really make the trip up Alpe D'heuz a lot easier!
  10. A deal on these Ultegra bits would be much appreciated: http://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/shimano-ultegra-6800-chainring-50t http://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/shimano-ultegra-6800-11spd-cassette
  11. http://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/vittoria-barzo-29er-tnt-tubeless-tyre Any 180mm rotor that works with XT brakes Please?
  12. A mate of mine is organizing this: https://www.facebook.com/The-Cape-To-Nam-Quest-242945952775496/ Wont get much more gravel grinding than that!
  13. I'm still hoping for one of these on special. Went the GP branch, but they only have the prizm ones on sale... http://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/oakley-jawbreaker-photochromic-9290-14
