  1. Take the wheels off, box them and post them over, will probably cost about R500. Then bring the frame and components in and you wont pay the 15% import duties as that is only for complete bikes, and yours will just be bike components. The 15% you save should more than cover the R500 shipping you pay for the wheels.
  2. 29ers also dominated. Looking at the photos, Evans and Stander were on 29ers as were most of the lead pack. 29ers are faster
  3. NO BAR ENDS - the way to go. They catch trees and look tacky. I ride without them and never has issues resting/relaxing my hands.
  4. I am also having problems posting, all of the fields come up and I can load photos but there is no post button to actually post the advert
  5. Thanks for the advice
  6. Can anyone tell me how you determine the correct road bar width? Thanks
  7. Awesome stuff
  8. I have used Cytomax for over 10 years and swear by the stuff. The Tropical flavour is awesome and if you buy the 2.2kg tub it works out to about R11/litre which is MUCH cheaper than USN Epic Pro.
  9. And Compendium, they are the cheapest on household and cars (but not far off) they insure you most expensive bike for free if your policy is over R1000 p/m and then you pay 25% insuance for your other bikes. Someone like me that only has 1 car on the insurance and 4 bikes valued at over R30 000 they were R250 p/m cheaper than anyone else. And the bikes are covereed for races and crashes
  10. I rode there this morning and saw the race. This is so tragic.
  11. Where do I get these, must have some.
  12. Which is still probably R1500 cheaper than it is here. I am all for supporting LBS, but refuse to pay 100% more for an item. The LBS mark ups are much too big and they are going to feel it more and more in this computer savvy day and age.
  13. Hi, I am looking for a SRAM X0 or Shimano XTR 2x10 groupset. Thanks
  14. Because only specialized bikes break? What a tonsil
  15. LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
  16. Read the tests done on the Amarok in the latest 4X4 magazine. It got a terrible write up. It is a nice "townie" 4x4 but I wouldn't take it off road.
  17. Yip they hate being THRASHED by the cool cats, at their own sport
  18. 2 complaints, firstly, why bother having pre-entries if you aren't going to bother checking the numbers and then running out of socks? I know it sounds petty comlaining about socks but I pre-entered and expect to get what everyone else gets. Secondly, why cant they have a regostration point in Pmb also? I dont know about comrades but for Dusi you can register in Pmb or Durban. Loads of people travel down from the North and stay overnight in Pmb, but then have to travel to Durban to register. You should be able to select your registration point and then register in either Pmb or Durban.
  19. I also want to know how the Bulls won the world cup? There were more Sharks players in the starting 15 than Bulls players.
  20. Thats now 3 dead cyclists in 3 weeks that I know about. Really depressing start to the day. I am going to stick to mountain biking and take my chances with the bike jackings.
  21. Try Fedex, i just shipped a bike from PE to Durban for R350
