  1. Only and really only if you know what you're looking for, including size, and know your prices, otherwise they see you coming from far
  2. R100 bucks from me send payment details
  3. ah, the voice of reason! you say
  4. opinions please, worth it?
  5. I think one must ride where it is the safest for self and others, and not use a facility just because its there. So if a cycle lane has pedestrians, social riders and dogs on it one cant reasonably accept its safe to ride 40 ks/ hr on the cycle lane, there are many other users who will be endangered, then rather use the road. Common sense prevails
  6. If one put something other than a skeleton in there then well
  7. just the amount of admin after shooting someone will be a pain in the budd, apart from other potential repurcussions, so not worth it. Insure your bike and take pepper spray, use if you can otherwise claim from insurane and move on.
  8. giant maestro tech just as old, both work extremely well so no reason for either to change
  9. giant not a bad bike but tallboy in a class of its own, worth extra r8k i would say
  10. Pm me if you like to take a ride also not keen to go alone and not all that fast
  11. spez amira (princess zebra) at 7.64 , difficult to calc costs frame R21k wheels secondhand R7k groupset and bits and bobs from old bike so R4973/kg spez stumpjumper s works secondhand R40 k 11.2 kg all in R3571/kg
  12. I would ask for a refund. Mot sure what price range we are looking at but go for well known and tested products
  13. So how many cyclist ride this road, up and down?
  14. Eisn and one thought this system works?
  15. ta, insurance sorted so replaced with a set of mavic slr and rebuild roval hubs on new alu rims on own cost as a second pair of wheels, so all sorted. i have a platform bike rack, too slapgat lazy to put it on but lesson learned. on the exhaust fittings, wont it stuff up turbos etc? cant really picture my beefy exhaust pipes with curly bits on it lol, so onto the platform rack i guess
  16. i had some play on my wheel turned out the bike shop did not fot the correct spacers for 142x12, now all sorted
  17. think it should be okay. i am on the old 7800 Dura ace and only had to tune gears a bit
  18. interesting one and a valid concern. lately i avoid most road races unless there is full road closure, especially the flat and fast ones where bunches are big and all over the road, trucks, cars and motorbikes all competing for a narrow strip of potholed tar. So apart from scimping on marshalls i also think depending on speed, roads and conditions participant numbers should be kept at more manageable levels.
  19. yes 11-28 you dont want to give up the 11 despite what anybody will tell you
  20. the actual problem is that the green looks horrible, spray it all black ! jokes aside i think its reasonable to accept a neutral colour if its not the current model any longer, if it was blue or red or something I would agree. take the bike and ride man
  21. Thought if you can afford 3 k for two races you can afford wheels
  22. Past hickups send the. Polar file and they took that
  23. Groupset,fork are your big cost stuff maximise that and upgrade frame later now is good timing for either a new buy ir secondhand noting 2014 models a hitting the shops
