  1. Tony Pedro - Republic Sport and Adventure off North Coast Rd. He's my go-to guy since I don't get out to Good2Go anymore.
  2. Saw this on the Ibis feed on Instagram - looked amazing!
  3. I like this sort of story. Feelgood all the way!
  4. Definitely. My problem is that I ride mostly during the week, as I work weekends. Shout if you can make a Thursday.
  5. I was! Fat guy + steel + baggys + drop-bars = WTF?
  6. My recently refinished Cotic X at Holla yesterday... What an absolute blast! Awesome bike - I love it even more now. I got a few curious looks as I trundled past....

    I also went to Monument Primary - long time ago now. Growing up in K'dorp was too much fun...missed it when we left.

    Growing up in Krugersdorp and riding that place stukkend. Kadimah BMX track. Acropolis Cafe on a Saturday morning to waste my pocket money on Tarzan Boy and Ms. PacMan Walking through the veld after school and going down to the spruit - if you're from Noordheuwel, you will know what I'm talking about. My friend Gerhard's parents owned Hillsnax at a time - slap tjips and tomato sauce after walking there on the freeway!!! Getting my Raleigh Grifter in Std1, and NEVER, EVER going to school by car again - even at KHS (until we moved to Durbs) Another time, people Might as well be Mars, if you look at our world these days...
  10. Inbred is the bee's knees for this application.
  11. Stones hurled, riders punched....jeez! Tough bunch, these people.
  12. Geoff Moorehouse did it for me in the UK. R676.00 including postage. I know it's a lot, but worth it.
  13. Pewter indeed! Courtesy of Geoff Moorhouse. He can do custom as well.
  14. Something finally arrived from the U.K:
  15. 12k for the frame is dead reasonable. Buy the frame and source the rest.
  16. are the grips not on back to front?
  17. Like the name sticker?
  18. For sure.
  19. Thanks, man. Love this baby.
  20. Hey, there Cotic fans. Here is my newly refurbed X. I wanted to go with the retro logo, which anyone who has been following Cotic as long as I have will recognize. The Soul used to have similar graphics years ago. The font may not be exact, but no-one was able to help me from either Cotic SA or Cotic UK. I will see how I feel about the black on white as I go - I may replace with the plain black lettering (I have tons of decals - thanks Tyrone) The new, solid metal headbadge is on its way from Northampton, then she will be totally sorted..

  21. Yup! Especially when you can ride like that....
  22. I think it should benefit the African riders, but will they get called on to do the big races as much as before? I wonder when results and the need for them will overshadow the idea of "building" African cycling?
