  1. TNT1....I'm with you.
  2. Yup.....I'm with the lbs...talk BS. Maybe I'm wrong here....but when I walk into a bike shop, and been asked if they can help.......I always ask the sale person if he/she is a biker......if not.....I'll ask for one. I always says.....you need to have a interest in bicycles....mtb, road, downhill...ect if you work in a bike shop....because the once with no interest will tell you...….."sorry sir...that will not work on your bike".......OR they doesn't want to help, because you didn't buy from them!!

  7. Flat...yes.....but there are those little climbs.......but not that serious. Very possible to do a 35km/h+ avg on this one.
  8. Also needed some advice please I broke my chain twice in 3000km and, yes I’m pissed about it. First time it broke on around 1800km and the second time on about 2900km. After the first break, the shop fitted a SRAM quick link and to my surprise it broke the second time four links behind the quick link. The first time when it broke I was on the small blade in front and on the second one nearest to the spokes, standing at the robot waiting for the green light, as soon as it turn green I pulled away and on the second peddle I almost hit the deck when it broke. The second time I was riding slightly up hill, in the same configuration as the first time and then suddenly I hear this cluck-cluck sound and I thought it was my BB, I stop and inspect but couldn’t find anything wrong, climb back on and as I gave the first stroke it snapped, as I mentioned it broke 4 links from the first time. The chain is 105 10 spd brand new out of the box and was fitted by the shop. What chain should I get(any recommendation), and what do you guys and girl think(maybe a **** chain) Rudi
  9. I use FIT and it works lekka. Had one or two or ..... of those flat battery moments but it wasn't the drink it was not eating enough. Rudi
