  1. Want to join "upgradeitis anonymous" - can someone supply me with the contact details
  2. Who`s the commentators on DSTV Supersport. So refreshing compared to the so called "voice of cycling
  3. If I remember correctly you can do it in both - check the process on this link http://www.parktool.com/blog/repair-help/di2-shimano-electronic-intelligent-system-installation-1 There is also some useful videos on Utube
  4. as described by Furbz above is 100% correct. First do this in the 3rd smallest gear (as per Shimano manual) and then do small adjustments in other gears if required. I don't know how I've ridden with manual now that I am used to DI2
  5. Yes works 100% you won't even feel a difference
  6. I cannot find an American Classic freehub for the 11 speed Campag groupset. I know that shimano 10speed cluster worked well with the 10 speed campag groupset. Does anybody know if a 11 speed shimano cluster on a wheelset will work with 11 speed Campag groupset
  7. Ten speed clusters of shimano and campag could be used with either groupset without any issues - does anybody know iof that is also true for 11 speed. I cannot find an American Classic free body for Campag 11 speed and want to try a Shimano cluster on the wheels
  8. Go and try any of the Anatomic Factory stores. I was pleasantly surprised with their range and quality of cycling clothes - not to mention the prices. www.anatomic.co.za
  9. Please send me some photos and size
  10. After a crash last year I only claimed the STI,s rear derailleur, peddles, saddle , handlebat and front wheel from insurance. They insisted on a full report from my LBS as wel as a full replacement quote. After they assessed (based on report and photos) they paid for a full replacement based on they cannot risk a carbon frame with possible damage and a maybe future claim. I asked if I can buy back the "wreck" and offered them about 7% of claim value. This is now my bike on indoor trainer
  11. Try something that will give you at least Heart Rate as well - help a lot with training intensity.
  12. HKGK check https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/136457-strava-dutchman-garsfontein/
  13. 2nd hand bikes - no value and no or very low demand. Use the advice above and convert your MTB
  14. I've always been very happy with Conti GP 4000 (Road Tyres) The last set I bought the front tyre started showing small cracks all over. It still run's fine, no leaks, no hobbles just the small cracks. Will keep on riding them until they ????? disintegrate or puncture continuously
  15. In South Africa they would start a Commision of Enquiry with a budget of a few million to investigate police brutality against a #$@#^% crook with human rights
  16. Try these guys: www.amtcomposites.co.za/carbon‎
  17. You can still do an online entry till 6 Feb at 23H00
  18. make an appointment with Jeroen Swart or John Wakefield at Science2Sport - they are tops
  19. Does not matter if more bikes get stolen in America the UK or anywhere else it remains totally unacceptable that this happen daily in South Africa and what's even worse our useless police (and government that controls them) does absolutely nothing about it.
  20. Frame it, hang it in your living room and lie on the couch looking at it - you might need 6 extras to make it look real
  21. That LOOK is flippen awesome. Who is the local dealers in JHB
  22. Rohloff Oil - the best if you can get hold of it.
  23. I did this a while ago and it works 100%. I inserted an aluminium tube into the full length of the steerer tube and glued it in with fiberglass resin. We even managed to lengthen the tube with the aluminium and an extra piece of carbon from another fork. Although it added some weight it was even stronger than before.
  24. No doubt that it's a chain catcher that's bend. It's purpose is to stop the chain from dropping on the inside. You can remove it and set up the gears perfectly or bend it back to original position.
  25. Your wife is obviously also on the Hub as spending R0 is just not possible. Please tell us how as I spend much more than I can afford.
