    You are the only arsehole and wanker!!!!!!!!! What we need is guys playing because they ARE the best players! So f-off and go and watch some soccer!
  3. Absa has a complaints line, call them lodge a complaint get a ref no and you should receive a prompt response.(if you don't, lodge another and continue until you do) I had to make use of this twice and each time my problem was quickly and efficiently resolved.
  4. What does it actually do?
  5. Who has one of these and what do you think of it?
  6. Thanks for all the replies! Will definitely look at the Rudy Project's
  7. I am in the market for a new pair of sunnies. Is the photochromic glasses worth the money? What photohromic glasses would you recommend and why? What shop/shops stock them? Thanks!
  8. Nicely put! Knowing how to use your weapon is PARAMOUNT!!!! Your mindset should also be right, be prepared to use force and maximum force if necessary. Personally, I carry a pistol.
  9. The sweat washes out easy promise! I like my things clean and fresh! Including my bike, if you don't that is your loss! Nothing like riding a clean bike with fresh, clean clothes and gear! Hope you at least wash your cycling pants and shirt, I wouldn't like to ride near to you otherwise!
  10. Thanks for all the recommendations, I will stick with the white as the gloves is the problem. Will get some fizik tape and wash the gloves till they either stop staining or fall apart!

  12. My gloves are X-ZAKT ones, much cheaper! But still, how long will the color come out? I think the makers should at least put care instructions on the gloves! And warn that they could stain white tape!
  13. I plan on getting the fizik tape, but what if the gloves stain them? My problem is to stop the gloves giving of color without washing them till they fall apart! The only way I could get the stained tape nearly white again was to place paper towel soaked in jik on it and leaving overnight.
  14. Hi Guys, Need some help! I bought a new bike and gloves(bike has white bar tape). I washed the gloves by hand using sunlight soap(the green bar), I saw they were giving off some color and washed them a second time. Let them dry and used them the next day. I was horrified to find the gloves totally ruined my handle bar tape(stained blueish/black). I washed the gloves several more times and every time they give of color. I then sent the distributor an e-mail about the above disaster! They generously offered to replace gloves and bar tape, I took them up on the offer today. This time I machine washed the gloves as distributor recommended. Then tested them on old bar tape, same result they give off color! My question is this, how many times must I wash them? I would think once would be enough! After all what is the use buying new gloves only to wash them "stukkend"! Any recommendations/comments will be appreciated! Thanks! Ps There was no washing or care instructions on the packaging or the gloves.

    Frame size

    Thanks for the info so far...................! This is what the fit calculator worked out. My measurements might have been out by a cm or so!(difficult to do it yourself) If I read it correctly the eddy fit(second column)works out to 57.6 so 1,6cm bigger than a 56, would this really have such a big impact? From this column my top tube is way to long at 59cm! Any suggestions? The Competitive Fit The Eddy Fit The French Fit Seat tube range c-c 56.4 - 56.9 57.6 - 58.1 59.3 - 59.8 Seat tube range c-t 58.1 - 58.6 59.3 - 59.8 61.0 - 61.5 Top tube length 52.7 - 53.1 52.7 - 53.1 53.9 - 54.3 Stem Length 10.8 - 11.4 9.7 - 10.3 9.9 - 10.5 BB-Saddle Position 78.6 - 80.6 77.8 - 79.8 76.1 - 78.1 Saddle-Handlebar 51.1 - 51.7 51.9 - 52.5 53.6 - 54.2 Saddle Setback 5.7 - 6.1 6.9 - 7.3 6.4 - 6.8

    Hello fellow hubbers! I know there has been various discussions on this, but please help me! I am 1,84m tall currently ride a 59cm bike but had to shorten the stem a lot to "feel" comfortable on it. I also get neck and trapz pain on longer rides. Would a smaller frame suit me better and what size would you recommend? Would I be comfortable on a 56? Thanks!
