  1. I have a 50mm rim brake darkhorse front wheel that lost a battle with an uber, broken and cracked in 3 places. Anyone want the hub and spokes (if still usable?). Collection in Claremont.
  2. Laptop stays at work, not sure it would have survived the crash.
  3. Don't write off the old backpack to soon. I had an uber turn in front of me on my way to work and ended up hitting him and going OTB, landed on my backpack and no injuries. (carbon front wheel not so lucky).
  4. Here's the item from my order history, even cheaper than posted. There are still some that look like the same as Supacaz designs, my bet would be they're all the same.
  5. I ordered some bar tape for my indoor bike. Temu had some Supacaz lookalike for R100 bucks, when it arrived it was packed in the exact same box that the original comes in and the actual product is indistinguishable from the real stuff, must have walked out of the same factory. Bought a couple more packs but I see it's gone from the site now.
  6. Thanks!
  7. Thanks for the answer, I can make the size work depending on what I get. I was thinking of using offcuts ideally.
  8. Hi All Quick question for those who know these things. I'm looking to make a key holder for the front door with my boys, I have access to a full workshop at work. The questions are: 1: What would be the best kind of wood to use? (Ideally a nice dark brown wood) 2: Where to in CT Southern Suburbs to get it (size roughly 300x300x20-40mm) Thanks!
  9. I've had the huawei 4i for the last 2 years that have been great, awesome noise cancellation as well. I see the 5i model is on sale for R1000 - https://consumer.huawei.com/za/headphones/freebuds5i/buy/
  10. Also had some heartbreak from @ group, 51 seconds short of a Sub 3. Was one of the better behaved groups that I can remember. Saw just the one guy go down hard after Smits at 60+km\h, watched him bounce and roll once he hit the deck. Had to come to a complete stop to avoid his bike that followed me to the left of the road. Hope he's okay!
  11. I've successfully done the substitution. I had an issue the first time, it wouldn't let me enter the details of the rider's place I was taking, just put me in for an international entry. Emailed them at info@cycletour.co.za and it was resolved the same day. "Thank you for your substitution, this is to confirm that we have received the consent letter from the person withdrawing and you are now entered into the 2024 Cape Town Cycle Tour. We will notify you of your start time in the week leading up to the Cape Town Cycle Tour Registration"
  12. Great race, well done team. My one request would be to have more bar staff on duty. The time in the queue to get a drink was close to my race time!
  13. Aren't FinishTime and RaceTec the same company?
  14. Very happy to see them DQ riders who were trying to jump up a group or two! I've often called out riders who shouldn't be in the group that I'm in, only to get an "It's fine, don't call the Marshal please" response. Spoiler - the Marshal was indeed called.
  15. Black Friday in SA is scam
  16. When you reach the free article limit, just open the next article in incognito mode
  17. Great, thanks for the feedback, will give it a shot this weekend.
  18. Hi All Just checking if the above is still the case or if anyone has been allowed to cycle her recently. I'm staying just below the pass for the long weekend
  19. I was A group and it was chaos when we were caught by B. I just missed the riders who went down on the train tracks, hope they are okay! Looked like it was 3 or 4 with one being a pure savage rider. Chatted to mate afterwards and he said there were matts over the tracks on the right hand side of the road but not on the left where we crossed.
  20. I sold a helmet to a fellow hubber that I wasn't using anymore as I had one a new one. He contacted me and was pretty upset as it had some small cracks on the inside that I had never noticed. I refunded him in full + shipping, in the end I think he left a 5-star rating.
  21. No issues with my Garmin 235 & 530 with an A52, however my wife's Garmin 25 sometimes has issues with her A32
  22. I see the online entries for the Sportive #3 are closed, can you enter at the registration today and tomorrow?
  23. Some much needed new rubber and a few extras
  24. Thanks for the coupon - where did you get that from? + upfront 25% discount - is this still maxed out at R4000 or has it changed?
