  1. Don't ask this lot to do an upgrade. Just do it.
  2. Pretty sure it is just people voicing their favourites.
  3. Just make sure your headset and wheel axle are also correct and do not have any play. But by the sounds of it the other posts have more than likely focused on the solution. Buy new pads and see what happens. No need to throw the old ones away until tested. With life the better quality pads you buy the less issues you have. Please post your solution when you find it.
  4. Nope. But you are correct. My opinions. And yes correct best kept ro myself. Thank you for your observation. Out of here for the day.
  5. You got it for free. Free Friday. I don't do feelings or opinions. There are too many of them out there. Enjoy your Friday. #freefriday
  6. Chris thanks for the coffee again 😁. What job do you do again? How many times do you go back before you get paid? A bike is pretty simple. Not saying I know it all don't get me wrong. The shop should have a checklist they run off for every job. It eliminates crappy work. Ask the customer to have a ride before they drive off. It is not hard to get it right. There are a lot of complaints here about bike shops. They need to improve to get my money. As mentioned I have my guy now. He is good. He doesn't like me coming back so he gets it right first time 🙈😂
  7. I wouldn't have minded if the fit fitted. It hurt my back. To the degree I couldn't sleep. So I did my own fit. Now I get 8 good hours every night. As so many times mentioned here. No every fish is for every pond.
  8. Yes. You are correct. I have now found the right mechanic for "me". I sit and talk to him while he works on my bike. No *** no story. I am happy to pay for good service. I am not happy to pay for stupidity. Seems there is a lot of that around here. You do you boss. I will do me. I fall out with a lot of people. I don't like lies either. My world is small but the people in it are pretty much all my best friends.
  9. I was gonna say. Follow spez, this will be their new weapon in 2 years!
  10. I have almost run out of shops. Eventually if you have been riding long enough someone in said shop will let you down.
  11. 7 passes road. One sign has been vandalised. Nice day. Nice weather.
  12. He was the fella I saw. Rude, obnoxious and arrogant are the words that come to mind. That was my experience with him.
  13. Bike fit pffffft. Waste. Been to sports science institute and their fitment nearly broke me. Couple grand that was. Spent a day doing full test and adjust. I feel good. Mostly I feel confident some geyser hasn't told me what I am doing wrong. I do about 18000 a year. So that's my take.
  14. Anytime. It is old Copperhead here. Got me a Lynskey now 😂. The Karoo is a touch of magic. But in winter it gets super cold.
  15. Calitzdorp to Oudtshoorn. Spectacular Karoo morning. Happy today everyone.
  16. I have been super impressed with these. Got them from bike addict. For the amount of riding I do I am satisfied.
  17. A lot of pain and struggle the last 2 days. Will be a rest day in Calitzdorp tomorrow. Then George then Knysna. Weather been pretty good. Cold but clean.
  18. Montagu to nearly Touws Rivier. 2 big passes. Bit of wind. But all in a good day. Happy weekend y'all.
  19. Through the Karoo back to Knysna. I should have brought my winter gloves. Hands were frozen at 8am.
  20. A beautiful Tokai yesterday. Borrowed a mates ebike and it was just sublime.
  21. Barrydale to Montagu. Lovely ride.
  22. From Knysna to Barrydale. 3 days in. 3 days to CT. Weather dependent. Some nice rides out there. Scenery is top notch with all the rains we have had.
  23. All 7 passes. Brilliant day.
  24. Yip interested. Cost and all that please let me know. I will be riding from CT so meet there. Super interested. Please DM me or WhatsApp. My number is on my profile. Nice one. I ride a lynskey rigid hardtail. But timing looks legit.
  25. Can't wait for a vegan car to be launched. Actually no. Give me a gas guzzling fosil fuel burning super charged V8 any day. Viva.
