  1. Lately received a lot of lowball offers. Not even a "hi, would jou accept an offer of x amount." Just: Rxxx Nothing more. So i just started to reply with just as much disrespect/lack of sillables: NO
  2. Just to throw another spanner in the mix: What about IDT riding. I often find myself riding in a very wet bib even with a fan on etc. the natural cooling from riding outdoors keeps my clothes a lot dryer. even things like a simple sweatband on my wrists help keep my handlebars and towel over handlebars dry. Back to the point: I wonder iff riding in salty corrosive wet bibs on the trainer does not help deteriorate fabric fibers. Just my 2c
  3. Have you ever shouted at your wife to help you measure your chest and waist...... only to anyways decide you dont fit into the (insert size here) measurement since you intend to lose 5kgs and that will make you 1 size smaller. come 1 year down the line and you picked up 2ks and you now look like a armgat gestopte wors...
  4. Wear the size that fits and stop being bothered by what the label says. In Hi-Tec for instance i am a L in the 3-in-1 jackets but a XXL in their Rain jacket.. also a XXL in ciovita Tinta. Really cant be bothered what the size prefix is anymore as long as it fits good
  5. Is the board a buy once @ R60 or is it like a day licence where you have to buy it for every race?
  6. Help!!!!!! I cant seem to add the SASeeding Ticket to my name on howler. Any idea what i am doing wrong?
  7. Looks very much like a Haro CR road frame with the almost teardrop down tube

Upgrading to the shokz Openrun Pro just to have the ability to have the outside noise and being able to communicate on gravel races.
  9. THIS I think we underestimate the washing line drying effect on ALL clothing not just cycling kit I always tell my wife "ons was ons klere in sy M..R in nie dra nie"
  10. Will post pictures tonight for all to see. I suspect we are not the only ones with this issue. For context MTB 25mm offset clamp with an Selle Italia SLR (saddle is pushed all the way back). this is also the main bib eater ROAD: 25mm offset clamp with an Selle Italia SLR( Saddle is pushed all the way forward) no wear on bibs whatsoever) Gravel: 0mm offset clamp with Spez Phenom (saddle pushed all the way forward) No wear on bibs but a skin pinch on my left side, probably due to the SLR 135mm vs the Phenom 143mm. I will get a SLR for the gravel when some shop has a sale on them again
  11. Its not your saddle. It is your saddle/seatclamp/inner thighs that is the problem. I will dm you pics of my assos and ciovitas. my assos wears a hole in them due to the chamois beim lower on the inner thigh. My ciovitas chamois stitching goes first to such an extend that it almost looks like it has the unstitched sides like an ASSOS. So every few months i send 3x ciovita shorts to their store to have restitched. the first 2 times they did a warrenty exchange but then it dawned on me that i am just a fat .... and that my inner thighs rumming against the saddle clamp is the cause. its got nothing to do with saddle model and more an INTERFACE issue. Hope it helps
  12. I have a 56cm Farr gravel frame laying around iff anybody wants a project frame. its unpainted so needs work but other than that its perfect.
  13. Morning Anybody used their upgrade kit before? They seem to have a solution to make my 1x11 Force1 into 1x12 and use a gx derailer. a mechanical mullet setup. just want ot get feedback before n buy and ship this side
  14. Big guy here. Heavy sweater aswell. The ciovita DriRelease is my go to. It has a solid strand of yarn running the full lenth of the garmet so it spreads the sweat evenly for evaporation. I can confirm that NO it is not hotter with a base layer and YES the spreading of moisture for evaporation does help cool you down. Even in 40 degree summer days i dont leave home without it.
  15. Morning. Any comparison between the Breville Barista Express and Kenwood Manual Espresso Machine? Both look very similar in design and features but the Kenwood is quite cheaper. Regards
