  1. He does, they've released their electric groupset, and if history repeats itself it will knock the socks of Shimano...
  2. Hey WH, I'm with you, think DI2 is cool, but How does it handle multiple gear shifts? and can't it be wireless? These are not statements but rather questions to those in the know...
  3. See I don't have that issue, I have Zero Gravity Negative G SL's Custom Red and Black, Cannondale SI Sl BB30 Crank 53/39, Super Record 2011 Shifters, Rear and Front Mech, Cassette and Chain. I'm as light as I need to go... :blush:
  4. Words fail me!
  5. Bold quote? Don't believe DI2 can match the weight. Still not convinced electric shifting is necessary. Campag has an electric group, not sure I'd buy it. The power source looks dumb and there are still "cables" that need routing. I'll stick with my super duper thanks
  6. Simple, Replica Kits are cool for Kids (trying to be like their hero's and all) Replica kits are cool for Adults that FUN RIDE. It's not cool to wear LiquiGas in the Summer League, unless you're Vincenzo Nibali! It's never cool to wear a Leaders Jersey, EVER! (WC, Yellow, Pink Green etc.) Unless you're the Champion that earned it...Contador, Hushovd etc. Ex Champs can wear em as a Band, That's Cool! World Champ stripes on apparel is Fine. No one really cares!
  7. Guys, what's the debate? ASG have a right to their business model and CWC has his online business. There are pro's and con's to both. Bottom Line. We (Consumer) are the Jury. We vote with our wallets. If ASG (Importers) come to the party we will buy from the LBS. Until then CWC, Icycling, CRC and Total (and others) are where we spend our money. Others choose the LBS, every guy has his market. The joys of capitalism woop woop
  8. Don't forget the TVT Carbon from late eighties / early nineties "Z" used to race them as well as rebranded ones for Banesto and BIG MIG.
  9. Cool a good question, Pornstar I'm sure will have an answer?
  10. yup. Ordered Monday afternoon before Christmas, delivered to my door Morning of 24th Dec. Price was best delivered as sold. Very good in my opinion. Learned about the site from another Hub guy Scratch, so know he has used the place as well.
  11. My Edge 500 from Bike Inn arrived today. Full Bundle (incl DHL) Ordered it Monday afternoon this week! Garmin, Shipping & Vat / Duties(?) R2,495 R404 cheaper than the Cyclelab Killer Deal! What's cool is they sell the Neutral (Black / White) as a bundle (Cadence / Heart Strap)
  12. "ADVICE NEEDED" and you turned to theHUB, :D
  13. Almost, Organisers would imply Kevin. Sponsors, bring guys like LA to the table. JAG. but we are saying one in the same
  14. Kevin pay somebody? Can not imagine that in my lifetime. ABSA or the Sponsors will fit the bill if money is to be paid. Yup, I have dealt with him with regards money / epic, before I'm flamed!
  15. Hope LA's place isn't decided before THE EPIC, will be difficult to ride in cuffs!
  16. very disappointing, I wonder where to for them now? I wish them luck in finding a new spot. Can Pegasus appeal?
  17. Timed Fun Ride / Race vs Licensed Racing... I am sure it's been debated before, there was the same question on another thread about the elite mens time? Doubt they know their time, but they will know who came 1st, 2nd and 3rd.
  18. 101SCC

    Polar cs 300

    Bbox gave you the correct answer, EDGE 500 brand new from bikeinn.
  19. My Bike is a medium I am 1.83m fits great
  20. DOWN +1
  21. There is a Black Swimmer Olympic Hopeful?
  22. sure I saw Pottie in the results at a WC event, could be wrong.
  23. Haha, my wife bought one from a shop in Constantia to wear to the beach, so she could leave her watch at home. Didn't even know this stuff till I saw this thread, she never ever put it on cause the watch never kept the time...! Piece of SH!T.
  24. Bikes are EXPENSIVE, they are 'HAND MADE' in the EAST (not Benoni). Gone are the days when you ordered a Colnago and bam your size, tubing and colour arrive 6 weeks later with a letter from Ernesto to enjoy your new ride. (Hopefully these days will come back - Check out - Parlee) Agents order a period in advance (changes per agent) and that's it, stock till the next RUN. If you run out you wait, no short reorder times. Welcome to economies of scale. I don't agree with it, I don't like it. Expensive + Poor Service = Poor Customer Experience Coenie, fly to the UK and buy one. You know you want to! Grumpy is spot on, we pay the bucks we should get what we want, not what we are told to have!
