    I wonder if it would work if you connected everything with ANT+ instead of bluetooth?

    There should be no import duties on a frame. When you place the order with the company (Hong fu etc.), there is a small currency conversion fee that all banks charge (around 1,5%). Then, once the frame arrives in SA, you pay VAT and customs on the purchase amount (total amount - shipping) which equates to roughly 16,5% with current VAT and rates.

    Very nice work indeed! I have a mate with the exact same problem - will forward him the link. May be worth having a drawing made up and then getting a shop to make a proper bracket on the CNC. Know any friendly engineering shops?
  4. Schnavel
    Yeah, that's the next issue - thankfully most new sensors and trainers are both bluetooth and ANT+ compatable.

    Mine will be completed in the next week or so - will post pictures once done!

    Apple TV, so apparently it's not possible to download the ride through that. However, as you mention, it saves periodically onto Zwift.com, meaning that I only lost the last 10 minutes of my ride as it had saved at the hour mark.

    It appears to have saved at the hour mark.

    I tried that now and it has most of my ride - but the last part is missing. Better than nothing I guess

    So last night I was riding on Zwift and was just about to complete my ride when the dark hand of Eskom struck... Is there any way to get my ride back? Does Zwift save the ride periodically on the local device before uploading it? If I switch my device back on now, will it automatically upload? I'm using an Apple TV to run Zwift.

    Cycle boat racing is going to be the next best thing since sliced bread - you need to protect yourself when cutting that corner and preparing for the head butt.

    Ciovita is fantastic kit. I have a few sets of their bibs and many different tops and the fit and quality are amazing.

    While Wheels Manufacturing are fantastic, they are expensive and take a long time to get to SA. Why not have a look at Token locally - give Warren a shout. I have used their products and have been a happy customer. http://www.tokencycling.co.za/

    Is it good to use for Zwift - Yes Is it a good smart trainer - debatable. Lot's of people have had issues with the Flux.
  14. Schnavel
    Yeah I know that one will work, but wanting to get the 4K to futureproof the setup.
  15. Schnavel
    It definitly works on the 64bit version of Windows 7, not sure about the 32bit though
  16. Schnavel
    As they say, if it looks too good to be true, it probably is...

    It works really well! I have mounted a screen onto it and use it as an up close and realistic view while training! On another note, Has anyone ever bought anything from tabooc.co.za? They have a really great price on an Apple TV that I'm wanting to purchase for use with Zwift: https://tabooc.co.za/product/apple-tv-4k-32gb/
  18. Schnavel
    Yeah they have, but I simply cannot justify the crazy price tag!

    My personal favourite: "Bike is brand new - only done 200km"

    Damn it! Just bought a gravel wheel set... Those look really great! How much will you be swilling them for and what do they weigh?
  21. Schnavel
    I'm assuming it's the same with all of the small gloves as well as every colour is sold out in small?
  22. Schnavel
    Mount the cassette and see if there is any lateral play - if so, then you need a spacer

    Stage 2 is really going to hurt this year. It looks like they are trying to break the course record again for the TT - legs will be slighly more rested with the short stage the day before.

    The Wahoo is a really great unit and is certainly a competitor with the Garmins. However, the deal breaker for the Wahoo for a lot of people is that it doesn't sync with Discovery - so no vitality points
  25. Schnavel
    Definitely an option, but just be careful if wanting to run a single chain ring up front. Most 29er frames can only accommodate up to a 38T single front chainring. Most people opt for 42T - 46T single front chain rings.
