  1. Cheap cork wrap for the first layer, thereafter Arundel tape. Super comfy.
  2. I've seen them in the flesh and the quality seems very good. I will take one with the modification we discussed, please... Drop by the shop if you need a deposit or such. Thanks a lot.
  3. Ryan's covered that before: On One rate it for 100mm, but trust me, it wont be a problem to run 120mm
  4. I get bleak when you guys are discussing routes etc and I am stuck at work.... Please stop.
  5. There are many accidents at that spot - even though it is dead straight. Never understood it.
  6. Saw this on my way to work - it looked really bad. RIP
  7. Let's face it - we all think our own bikes are the coolest..
  8. I had some Gen 1 (pre-offset wrap) decals made. see my earlier post. I have several of the larger decals if you want a set. will just cost you postage.
  9. 18 months? That's Firefly/Vanilla territory Try 6-8 YEARS for a Sachs. But...oh so worth it, as Ryan says
  10. I'm with Sepia. This sort of thing needs to be grown until it becomes a culture. The events they have in the States are evidence of the possibilities. I'm not talking about racing, per se, just riding. The recent Grinduro, the Salsa Ride Camps organized touring on publicly accessible routes. Bikepacking.com has a travelogue on it where the two protagonists travelled through South Africa and a few more Southern African countries. Frikking amazing scenery. What's not to like?
  11. Sunrace seems like it would be a more durable product, given their historical position in the market.
  12. Great write-up. More people need to do this. It's a very rewarding way to travel. Granted, I've only done a small overnighter myself, but it was AWESOME!!!! Kudos
  13. Indolas work for me, but the buiklt in chamois is in short form not bibs.
  14. I guarantee you: all are taking this extremely seriously. Cyclists are competitive to a fault. A few laughs lighten the load, I think.
  15. I've dropped 2kg in 3 days....must have been full of sh#t when I weighed myself before....
  16. Right outside my place of work...
  17. Don't feel so bad now - looks like we are all battling... For me the restaurant is the busiest it is going to be this year, so tough to keep disciplined (I am seriously considering hypnosis.... ) No ,ore excuses for me - I'm on board now. Good luck everyone!
