Try Old Mutual Insure, for my 30k mtb I pay R125. Covered as an all risk item, meaning claim under any circumstance besides 'spupidity' .. as is don't leave your bike unattended where it could get stolen. Recently claimed for my gopro and was settled within 3 days

Not comparable to the JBL Partybox 100 you noted in the opening post, but the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom Portable Speaker at Takelot for R999.Bought it last year after it was rated the best budget speaker by some tech magazine, i use it daily with my laptop and phone. Still considering getting a second speaker as you can connect 2 simultaneously, good battery life and its waterproof. I see there is a newer model for a bit more Ultimate Ears WONDERBOOM 2 for r1400

Thumbs up !!

Have 2 action cams, usage is fairly often but not only cycling. Body boarding, snorkelling, trail runs,beach with kids, holidays. The Garmin Virb has the GPS data included which makes your rides and runs videos much more interesting, can link heart rate and cadence which adds more data to the visual.

Recently redone by MTB insurance, started with Cyclesure, Outsurance, Miway, I was shocked by some of the numbers I saw. Ended up with old trusted Mutual insure that wrote me up at R119 for R30 000 for All risk, meaning theft, damage, in race, not in race, etc .. fully covered. Added on my Gopro that is somewhat permanently on the bike now for R25 for R8000.

Wow - unbelievable poor service... and you are a patient man.

Why buy from someone with a 40% trader rating... the negative feedback is fairly old but i would of been extra cautious.

I'll pm you some details, she use to manage Howzit sports. she will be able to assist and she is fairly close to you.

Evan, what area you located ?

Not trying to put any shop down but here is my personal view of the shops close to me, and fairly close to Newlands. Crown Cycles - Love them, will always support them, but workshop turn around time is too slow for me. Olympic Cycles - Big on Service, but they overpriced, i don't support them. Bridge Cycles - 1 too many horror stories Trail & Tar - Love them, quick workshop turn around time, like the transparency of the workshop, will always try to assist on the fly if possible. Maybe not the cheapest but high service driven.

Trail and Tar in Tokai has been my go to for last couple years. I pass a few bike shops on my way to them, you should give them a go.

Activated my Mtb insurance on R30 000 replacement value @ r120 per month with access of R500 with OMInsure (old Mutual and Federal) Called MIway and got quoted almost double that amount, with 10% of claim value as access ! Also called Cyclesure who quoted me R188 p/m

Road route mapping from your location should be easy but taxi avoidance will be tricky. Perhaps mention how much climbing/elevation you want to include
