  1. @Cheabb78 oh dear. the whole reason i got it was because of power on the road and the smart trainer. just made more sense to have the same set of data then for the mtb aswell
  2. oh FFS.. Just bought a 130 plus for the missus and a 530 for myself. Then again i'm on my 3rd fenix and my brother also on his 3rd. funny how they kept failing just out of warranty and then we had to pay "half" for a new one. eventually told the guy its BS iff they expect me to almost yearly pay half of a new unit. on the other hand... Leatherman used to replace your unit iff you sent it in for a service. now you have to pay R150 just to get a blade sharpened. something to do with a business model that they cant sustain anymore and that we as saffas got to be knows as abusers of our leathermans..... BLAH BLAH BLAH
  3. Just bought a Stages (think its gen1, it was a bargain in my eyes so couldnt say no) crank for the MTB. Been using a powertap on the road bike for a while so i know my way around the usual Power data. My question is: Will the Stages provide new data ie L-R balance for instance? want to know if i have to set up my head unit differently for the Stages than the Powertap. Regards Calves
  4. have you received the letter that the bank must sign? thats the last piece of the puzzle iff it was OKed. otherwise it might still be up for review
  5. bought one of these https://indola.co.za/shop/mens/winter-cycling-jacket/
  6. Is the trail network open to ride on other weekends?
  7. Their bikes do look like a love child between Canyon and Cabal. With regards to trainers looking alike.... SAME FACTORY. The new titan racing frame has been around a while, same with Swift Evil twin. You are paying for Marketing at the end.
  8. To be fair, ELITE did the same with trainers also going 2-5k more when their 2nd shipment landed and the SARIS container is still in Durban port so we can have a look what their prices retail for when their new stock is uploaded. I think of the lot, Wahoo is just first to land their trainers with the new price, i think the other brand will follow when theirs land. I think the core issue here is there is always a hike in prices, but never a reduction even when all our stars align. the inflating of RRSP is also suspicious sales tactics that aggravates us.
  9. Resistance bands, a broomstick cut to lenth and LOADS of creativity. Changed my whole outlook on going to a gym
  10. The picture sums up their sales tactics. https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/185213-rrsp-of-so-called-sale-items/page-4 Also started a topic about similar sales tactics after some clothing RRSP also skyrocketed they have blocked and reported me so many times because i post this picture...
  11. Worked for a certain inporter in Landsdowne... You are correct in saying all shipments is payed before it goes onto the water. We are being screwed with importers telling us they pay exchange rate on landing the shipment here. With regards to your Durban harbour importer, i have purchased a trainer from him due to mine having a problem that cant be fixed( emailed parent to confirm this), money has been payed and thus far he hasnt even asked for a shipping adress... PS.. to make matters worse, I was never informed that he does not currently have stock when he quoted me.
  12. So on the article on BikeHub's Facebook page I was playing connect the dopers.. I couldnt find a photo but bear in mind that Shan Wilson and Brandon rode Cape Epic 2005 together.. A little while later i receive this (screenshotted) from a certain offender
  13. LOVED Mine PLEASE just be carefull when replacing battery. Broke 2 of them this way. never seals again and water damage the next ride. other than that..... FANTASTIC
  14. On a different note....... How was the littering on the other routes? did the 50km and was disgusted by the amount of bar wrappers some only half eaten that was littered.
  15. Can I still take you up on the offer for the reamer?
  16. So the stars and brittish flag in the case of other mentioned countries will be top left corner iff i apply your rule correctly? although i do understand the more simple 90 deg rule seems a better fit for my OCD brain
  17. That is to mount SRAM XD casettes. its to cater for the 10tooth 11th gear The Lockring is now basically a sleeve that treads on further in. Hope this answers your question
  18. According to FOX (who is recalling some rear shocks) its illegal to resell a recalled product "Consumers should immediately stop using this product unless otherwise instructed. Retailers, distributors, and OEM customers should hold this product and stop sales and distribution until further instructed. It is illegal to resell or attempt to resell a recalled consumer product." On PINKBIKE this morning
  19. Can you post it to paarl or de doorns?
  20. Cervelo Bigla (Miss Moolman-Pasio's Team)
  21. Just a thought. I put my reamer on my strong hand side.. For when these skelms want to rid me of my belongings. So now you have a tool AND a weapon stashed away... Like i said that was just my logic when installing them. Might be what the Giba Gorge cyclist used to defend himself
  22. Can I get one? lost my Reamer
  23. Yup. it came with the new ORANGE step cast fox update. Factory still have the gold kashima and float etc gets black now. https://www.google.com/search?q=fox+new+black+stanchions&client=firefox-b-ab&biw=1366&bih=657&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjP4YmNs_rOAhViL8AKHZwEA5AQ_AUIBygC#imgrc=aJX8wBulVe_bHM%3A
