    I'm using 36 - 10/51 on my "offroad bike" and 38 - 10/51 on my mostly "road bike". I prefer to have the range for incase you hit a very steep hill. I hardly use the 51 but like the thought that its there should I need it.
  8. Also got the Alpina Straight Pull Bladed Spokes from Rapide on my Tigré. I'm a fatty and they are holding up perfectly. They are also lighter than DT Competition, if you want to save a few grams ...
  9. Dont find a bike shop, find someone that specialize in suspension !
  10. Sounds like you shouldn't trust these guys, go get your bike and take it to someone that actually know what they doing. Up here, thats Cogent, dont know down there ...
  11. Haha Mr M, last time I checked you were the one left behind .... 😁😂 PS: I can only wish my heart can still rev that high 😄
  12. Also keen on hearing experiences with the Karoo Hammerhead 2. At the moment I'm "locked in" with Polar products, but maybe in future this might be the one.
  13. Enjoy the jokes while they last, your time is coming, slowly but surely .... 😁
  14. My sunglasses is prescription bi-focal specifically for that reason. It also make reading the bike computer easier when riding.
  15. Nice, did you buy at the Kia agents? It will fit nicely in my Sorento ...
  16. Hi David, maybe I'm wrong but I get the impression you still don't clearly know what the difference is. If that's the case, have a look at this:
  17. Now that you got clipless shoes, you might as well give it a try and see if you prefer it or not. If you don't like it you can always revert back to flats, your choice ...
  18. Its a matter of personal preffernce. I'm with @amac, I'm so used to ride clipless that I cant even imagine riding with flats.
  19. If you were closer I can donate a pair of pedals & cleats. If you dont come right let me know, can maybe send via Postnet.
  20. yeah, got that 😁
  21. Nope, from the photo clearly a crank spindle and not a BB 😂🙈
  22. Then how on earth can it be in such a sad state? Or is it only dirt I see?
  23. There must have been a manufacturing flaw from the start, I cant see any other way.
  24. Well then, miracles still happen .... 😂
