  1. A huge explosion! No dude nothing happens. You must use soapy water- it makes the tyre slid better onto the rim.
  2. Chuck out the old rim strip- you don't need it (added weight ) I've never seen a rubber seal used before. Use it if you want, but I don't think it's needed. Use lots of soapy water as it helps lube things and seal the bead. Best of luck.
  3. Is the extra R400 worth it for the Keo 2 Max pedals? Keo 2 Max (R1100) vs Keo Classic (R700). Weight wise the Keo 2 Max are 10g lighter. Opinions chaps!!!
  4. So Eastons run smooth and Mavics look hot
  5. Yup Splat I just saw the thing about not selling Mavic's aoutside the EU Here in SA they are darn pricey though!
  6. Atraut you have been a great help! Thanks! I'm not really worried about looks.
  7. Ok so that is three votes for the Eastons so far
  8. R4400 for both hey. Been doing reviews on the the Eastons but it doesn't look good hey. Broken spokes galore! I'm also an Easton guy- own some EA70's at the moment, but after all the reviews I'm thinking Mavics. Just need people's advice as I've never owned some Mavics.
  9. Any opinions?
  10. From your experience guys please let me know which one I should look at buying? CRC has some very good prices- unless someone has a pair either new or very little milege. Thanks!

  14. Very ambiguous...
  15. I just get a damp cloth and give them a good wipe.
  16. Chris I'm looking at getting a carbon road frame for my girlfriend- size 47cm. What could you source? It'll be her first carbon frame- so nothing fancy needed. Fingers crossed
  17. Any road rides on the weekend?
  18. Splat PM MR LOOK, he'll help.
  19. LOVE my Sweep
  20. Where you gonna use my bars and stem for this beauty chaunce? She is a beauty...
  21. I wonder if Contador will quit the sport now? I remember in the beginning he said if he was found guilty he would quit.
  22. A sad day for our sport. I have always supported Contador. Looks like I'll have to find another rider to shout for in the TDF.
  23. Mtb clipless? That way you can clip in either side. What you not a fan about?

    Fatties

    Yup its the use of carbon fibre that makes the bike fatter as it needs numerous layers. Added layers to certain areas of the frame makes it stronger- take the chainstay and BB for example. And vice versa the thinness of some seatstays (Cervelo).
  25. CRISIS that is hot!!! What's she weigh?
