  1. See the vid made it onto pinkbike... http://www.pinkbike.com/news/mountain-bike-stolen-at-gunpoint-2014.html
  2. Hi Hubbers, I was hoping someone can help me. I am looking for the route file of the 2014 MTB Argus - 55km route. Maybe someone has done the route and they can just mail me the Garmin Route file (.gpx file). I know there were a group of people that tested the route. Maybe one of them recorded the ride with a gps device. Thank you. Krynauw
  3. Well, that was kinda the plan! I wanted to route some trails (Paarl + Wellington + Ceres) and then make them available here on thehub. But at this stage it doesn't seem possible? Argh...
  4. Hi Hubbers, Thinking of getting an Edge 810. I have a question regarding the routing capabilities of the device. I played around on the Garmin Connect website and tried making a route via some singletrack and jeep track. The connect website deals fine with the jeep track and lays a nice route all along the required roads. However, as soon as I try putting some singletrack into the route, its as if the website doesn't recognize that there is a trail. It just creates another waypoint on the closes jeep track. Am I doing something wrong? Or is there a limitation on the roads that one can use? If this is a "real" limitation then I might just end up getting the edge 510. No point for me if I cant route some nice ass kicking singletrack on a ride! Thanks for viewing!
  5. What do you guys think of this deal?? I want a coffee machine!
  6. Yes, I would also like to know how to do this!
  7. How much discount will one get on Momemtum?
  8. Just had a look on the site, details will be posted tomorrow wrt features, etc Initial pic looks sexy! ????
  9. Hi hubbers, I have a question regarding the vitality mall and the istore. I have read that you can now buy istore products through the vitality mall. You can also finance the product interest free for a period. Does anybody have experience with this and how it works? Thanks Krynauw

  11. Hi hubbers, I need your expert opinion again. I am thinking of investing in a cycling gps device but are unsure which one. Garmin? Polar? Suunto? Also, I run every now and again which will also be cool to track. But i mainly cycle. I am looking at the edge 500 but then i should probably go for the edge 510? I also have a iPhone 5 with tons of cycling apps, etc but would like a dedicated cycling device. I am also considering the garmin 310xt, its hideous but it tracks cycling, running and swimming. Please help! Thanks Krynauw
  12. I come from a Downhill background...currently riding a lefty...awesome fork, even in the rough stuff. It took some time to adapt to the lefty but once you get use to it there is no looking back. And believe me...these forks are strong...just watch some of Cedric and Aaron's vids from back in the day when they were still riding for Cannondale...we are talking about backflips, street, DH...all on a lefty...nuff said. But its like you said...at the end of the day...its rider preference.
  13. Tallboy Carbon - "Bike of the year" - Nuff said. ????
  14. Hi guys, I am looking for a lefty adapter for my Tallboy frame. I spoke to omnico but they will only receive stock in 2014. Is there any other suppliers you know of? Thanks again. Krynauw
  15. You know why I love thehub? This is exactly the reason why! Thanks for the replies guys, so I am going with the L. This is serious cash so had to make 100% sure. Going to put my 2013 lefty on it, hope it works as well as i think it will! Thanks again!
  16. I have attached my ergofit numbers. Thanks.
  17. Hi guys, I need your expert help again. I am 1.82cm in length. I am considering getting a Tallboy 1 carbon 2013 (one just before the TB2) I am considering getting a L but i am uncertain if i need to go to the XL model. The sc bikes are generally smaller. My ergofit says i need a toptube length of 63cm. The L is shorter than that, but cant find the exact numbers on the sc website. Only the TB2's stats is on there. I dont want to ride with a huge long stem. Having said that, i am doubting the ergofit numbers because it also states that i need a seat height of 72cm from the BB but i am closer to 76cm. So confused! Any SC owners out there that can please assist me? These frames are obviously not cheap and dont want to make a wrong decision! Thanks guys. Krynauw
  18. Great. Will do. Thanks!
  19. Hi Hubbers I need some advice. I am think of importing a Thule platform bike rack from France. I looked on the SARS customs and excise duty schedule for the % applicable on the bike rack but cant seem to find a suitable category in which it will fall. Does anybody have experience in importing a bike rack? And what the customs will be? Thanks guys.
  20. Great. Thanks guys. Seems I will be picking one up this weekend!
  21. Hi Hubbers, I need your expert opinion on the Thule G2 platform rack. They retail at about 7k for the 3 bike and that is a lot of cash for a bike rack and that is why I first want some feedback from anyone that currently owns one. I have looked at cheaper platform racks but the ease of loading the rack to the car on the Thule is a selling point to me at this stage. Also, I see the manual refer to when using carbon frames on the rack, that I need to contact the manufacturer of the frame first to see if the frame can be used on the rack? I am assuming this is just to safeguard Thule. Cant think that the clamps can cause damage? Or am I wrong? What do you guys think about the Thule platform racks? I only want to buy once therefore I like the quality of the Thule products. Any feedback would be great! Thanks Krynauw
  22. Tankman...you have PM. Looking for a Tallboy 2 frameset. Or anyone that can assist...will also consider tallboy 1. Thanks.
  23. My Flash 2 Carbon 2013...climbs like a mountain goat! Love this thing...
