  1. This sounds a bit like someone wanting some acknowledgement for their achievement... Are you perhaps a new world champion? Maybe want a "HubSA trophy" ??? Yea its nice for the people contending and great for SA to have such awesome results... But I doubt that hundreds of new cyclists are born due to Oom Sakkie winning the world champs... Most people don't even know how to change a tube, never mind who the VETS are.
  2. I also say scott... I currently have a the Scott Addict but my dad brother has the cr1... Scott is incredible value for money and awesome bikes to ride. I would not go for the Bianchi Centostrade reason being is for 20k you get the bianchi with veloce groupset. That bike weighs over 9kgs... Its a very heavy bike especially compared to the scott
  3. Selle Italia SLR Gel Flow... The 2012 models is a lot better than the previous one... BEST saddle I have ever ridden and doesn't hurt one little bit...
  4. Just checked and all of my setting are still fine and no blocked domains or anything Please Admin help
  5. Still not getting any mail... And why now all of a sudden? nothing changed on my side
  6. Hello guys maybe it is just me but for some or other reason I don't get anymore emails when people reply to my posts or send me a PM This is frustrating as I normally dont hang around on the hub the whole day so would like to know what is going on Please admin shed some light on this
  7. HAHAHAHAHA I have never even heard an idiot speaking so much sh#t... You are the steriods of IDIOT!!!!!!!! Having protein and supplements is just a way of giving food to your muscles... The same way that you give food to your body! There isn't enough carbs and protein in everyday food to keep you healthy and strong enough for hours and hours in the saddle or whatever training you do. If you go days without food you will die, ad if you train hours and hours a week and just eat the same as under normal circumstances you will break down all you have inside... Maybe that is why you are the Idiot here because you took no food and no supplements so your brain started to dry up... You should hydrate a bit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  8. I have no idea...!!! Quoted it from the above mentioned post
  9. Just one question??? Why would more psi (Meaning less contact) give less "ummpfff"... The harder your tyres are pumped the less contact you have and thus less rolling resistance? Thats logic!!!
  10. Just go down a bit on the Campy sight and see something MUCH GREATER!!! A 53/36 Crankset... How's that for a perfect combination of compact and standard!!!
  11. Sorry for the question? But why would you want the flywheel to have momentum??? So that you don't have to pedal so hard? My VA still has the regular spinning bike but my bike is a much better workout as the wheels don't pull your legs foward in your weaker areas? So on a spinning bike you don't use the full 360 coz your legs get pulled where on a normal bike you have you use your legs on the whole crank!!!
  12. Great thanks I think I am going with the 9 bar back and 8.5 front...
  13. thanx for the help so far guys... Also really need the GATORSKINS' not so much other tires
  14. Hey guys sorry for starting this again but something VERY weird happened yesterday with my post and got screwed up... I would like to know what how many bar you guys ride on with a ROAD Conti Gatorskin? But on clincher wheels. I bought a pair Clinchers and it can take up to 10bar of pressure. Gatorkin recomend 8.5 but I spoke to a few guys yesterday and they said you can go higher... What do you ride on? and what is you weight? Thanx alot!!!
  15. Hey guys thanx for all the replies... Just want to make sure... Are you talking about normal clincher tyres??? I want to know what your max pressure is on clincher tires
  16. My rims can take 10 bar so thats not limiting... The conti max pressure guide is as I said I heard people saying pump it harder
  17. Actually an ASPIRING Charted Accountant... So I try to find something that is broken
  18. Also my weight is about 81kg
  19. Hey Guys I've been riding with Conti Gatorskins for quite a while now... Brilliant tires and never gets punctured. I have always run them at 8.5 bar (Conti MAX recommended), but this morning I heard a few guys saying that you can pump them alot harder... What do you guys ride them at? and what would you say is the best "bar" to go fastest but also minimize a puncture? Thanx in advance
  20. Kyk na die nuwe verbruikers wet... Jy kon hom vat en loop... en hulle kan NIKS aan jou gedoen het nie...
  21. I currently ride the R2... AWESOME bike. very ligth and a real looker. Especialy with the zip404... You'll never go wrong with the SCOTT
  22. @chris Well true it won't, but you never know maybe with a crash... Maybe the bike gets sto;en and you need the same saddle... Point being that the SLR gel flow is amazing
  23. The selle italia max flow is to broad and will grind you like mad if you don't have a broad sit bone... Have also tries alot of saddle incl all the fizik and and and. At the end of the day THERE IS NO BETTER SADDLE THAN SELLE ITALIA SLR GEL FLOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Ill spend R4000 on that saddle if mine brakes and fly all over just to get it
  24. Hey guys I'd just like to really thank the guys from centurion cycles and from the bela bela race organizers for giving us a great experience on this yearts bela bela race. Last year there where potholes like mad and it was very dangerous. But as for this year all the holes where fixed and here and there where they missed one, they filled them up extremely well. I really think that they've outdone themselves this year. I'm sure if this will continue in the future the race will get much bigger as people wont be scared of crashes. Thanx again guys.......
  25. Yup most people are on the road by 5 o'clock... It is a bit shitty in the beginning but you'll get use to it. Just make sure you get a group to ride in if its still dark. Just makes it safer. I heard from a docter that it is better to train early morning because your hormones are all jumpy and in tact so you don't have any of your energy already drained... But as true that is I'm not sure. Most people go out at 5 because they still have to go to work
