  1. Thanks We use the clamps to hold the bike upright and in place and not to "lock it down" it so to speak. Always careful.
  2. Your link is broken. Use: https://www.wtrl.racing/zrl/Zwift-Racing-League.php
  3. While on the topic. We are in the market for a Thule rack and I see they mention that the racks are carbon compatible with their adapter. The adapters are only a small piece of rubber that wraps around the frame. Both our bikes are squared off where the clamps will go and my current rack doesn't seem to put any strain on the frames. I don't see why these adapters are needed. Comments are most welcome.
  4. Linden Cycles or Northcliff Cycles are also pretty damn good. First prize is Sprocket & Jack though.
  5. Exactly. Group of 4 with dogs robbed at gunpoint. Middle of the day around the bird sanctuary. Definitely looks like the exact same of thugs just milking Delta Park and now spilling down onto the spruit. The last incident on the spruit itself they ran into Parkhurst. Most likely a car there waiting to drive off and disappear.
  6. Excellent. I stayed there on year. Great accommodation.
  7. I was considering that. Wasn't 100% sure if that would be a good idea but looks like it is. Will definitely clean this one up at some stage and try it again. Not sure if it is even worth it considering the quality of the Lyne one. The replacement SRAM is perfect for now. Can't wait to try the oval.
  8. Looks like the church at the old post office in Curries Post.
  9. Cuts, bruises, and suspected broken wrist.
  10. Have you replaced the chainrings yet?
  11. The lady’s husband was a couple of meters ahead of her. These okes have no fear. Guy was robbed in Delta at 9:30 on a Saturday at the top by the school. Just before you go down the jumps and berms. Busy areas. WTF
  12. Problem on the spruit and Delta park is the crime. Armed robberies of cyclists and walkers on a weekly basis at the moment. This morning a rider was tackled off her bike just after Delta. Her bag was cut off her and the guy tried to make off with her bike. This at 10:45 this morning. A time where the spruit is super busy. As much as I love the spruit I won’t be back until it is safer again.
  13. Canyon R54k and.... Not included: Shipping & Packaging VAT Duty Fees I wanted to go the Canyon route and the offer looks attractive until you add the hidden costs.
  14. Quite a bit less than what they quoted me. My “office” Oakleys came in at well over that for nothing special.
  15. Sadly I didn’t make it all the way to battle the bat. The legs couldn’t get past Windsong and the weather was turning. Still managed to hurl myself back down Windsong (nasty little prickly plants and all) and back to the club via Khyber pass. At that point the dog was so thick i couldn’t see more than 5 meters in front of me. Worth every second of riding. Us JHB boys don’t know what climbing is.
  16. Why are you even posting this thread if all you add is you don’t like the design of the frame. What bike would you recommend?
  17. I’d phone the shop. I’ll sure they have a connection to do touchups or you could give it a bash if you have a steady hand. I’m waiting for paint for my bike. Cable rubbed down to the raw carbon.
  18. At some point they do the wrong person in and it ends up in a very unpleasant situation. Saw this first hand when a guy scammed the wrong group of people for an expo that never happened. Nothing was ever the same for him.
  19. Also look at the Silverback Stratos. Better spec for the same money. https://www.cyclelab.com/product/silverback-stratos-al2-29-mountain-bike-2020
  20. Is the scratch all the way down to the metal or the base coat?
  21. You really don’t half-arse anything you post. This is stunning.
