  5. Wait, Wait, Hold your Horses. I needed my camera which I now have with me, they will come today...

  7. For all you climbers where aero means zero and weight is everything... http://www.cyclingnews.com/tech.php?id=/tech/2009/news/05-08 mmm
  8. Yup, money and sport, that's what it boils down too, especially sports gambling
  9. Just read Breaking the Chain... Once you're done' date=' then ask the same question again! Lance is a professional, Taking a shower is a no no... [/quote'] Look I know LA's sh*t doesn't stink but even he has to shower / bath after riding all day Agreed, just do it on the ODD day that he is not being tested, where there is smoke there is a Makro, if you know what i mean...

  11. R32,300.00? When are the manufacturers going to realise the market for frames is R9,000.00 - R15,000.00! Whose got a spare R25,000.00 lying around for a frame? add a group, wheels and finishing kit - R60,000.00? Good luck with the Promo - I love Look frames hope there are wealthy hubbers out there to support it!
  12. New Version of the Racing Jackets...That is what I was told.
  13. Buy what you like at the best price you can negotiate...a good deal is when the seller is happy and the buyer is happy. Saying that, I can't believe bikes cost R100K! Madness
  14. Shamals are the business, Clincher or Tubeless, funky Carbon Hub, Light and most important - Campag Hubs!
  15. Had experience with Goodridge / XTR and it was not a good one 1. Once the correct Goodridge Fittings were bought Scratch had them on in an instant... Moral of the story is buy Goodridge Fittings, their website gives a breakdown of the appropriate fittings for each caliper system. Then it's quite pleasant really.
  16. I don't think the guys are making too much money, I would say the opposite... The fact that there is no stock means they have not ordered enough. Prob haven't got enough cash flow to stock the full colour / model range for the whole country. I think there is a preception that these small (read single brand) importers make a mint, it is not true. See deFeet, Fizik, etc. Just ask Shamus with Crank Brothers. I don't see him driving a GTI! or living in Westcliff. I think Fizik is a bigger brand than the importer can cater for. Too many guys start businesses under capitalised and pay the price of poor cash flow. This is obviously not a reference to Just Fun, J&J, Coolheat etc, I am not sure about their business model, so will refrain from a comment. Just my 2c...
  17. Me thinks after 94.7...
  18. Okay, I get it, Retro...
  19. Littering aside, the guy had an Orange & Black Bike, Yellow & White Shirt and Red Helmet...Pantani call style man quick! It's an Emergency
  20. Good laugh of a thread Chunky, you are totally (in)famous! keep well dude.
  21. Good, not Bad
  22. Don't Lie Chunky...I saw you with Gav in Bedford Centre! You are HUGE! You know who I am I don't need to use my REAL name...
  23. Gila, where are the socks and cool apparel...sorry I missed you in Cape town. Was mad busy. I was gonna buy when I go to Italy in May.
