@guidodg where did you get that Fork, I am looking for one for my Frankenbike.

plus 1 on the Bontrager lights, not cheap but works very well.

want to know as well.

I use Garmin Livetrack and works 95% of the Time, with my Edge 540 but with my FR965, I have not had once when it did not work.

How effective are those Cable Disc brakes?

They are almost walking distance from your work.

Yip, my pod is still Garmin but if you get a Dual(ant+/bluetooth) Wahoo pod works well, my wife uses one.

Sounds like a good bike at a decent price, is it the correct size for you? if so Nice bike, MVDP can not be wrong.

One thing that I must mention, recently I started putting my Garmin 540 to "sleep" instead of switching it completely off after each ride, now I get more than a week on a charge, I typically ride 3 times during normal weekdays and Saturday long ride 2-3 hours and some Sundays.

One of the main reasons, I use Garmin is Vitality, so I have become so used to the ecosystem.

Good thing that I did not enter this year, maybe my training will be up to scratch in November.

I think wahoo is a good alternative, I am a Garmin fan-boy but my soft strap is a Wahoo.

Look on temu, they had something similar for a good price.

There is a stolen bike section that you can post on.

There are two Garmin dealers on Bikehub, @Iliska and @GarminGuy, they should have something

If you are willing to travel to the east you can bring the trainer to me and test it, I am in Boksburg, send me a DM is interested.

KTm is bust as far as I know, or is it only the motor bikes, then stick with Silverback

Have you tried the APP?? Try inserting the battery ghe wrong way for 20 seconds(shorting the unit)

The one and only, I sort out hubbers that misbehave.

WHAT AREA?

Try cjain waxing, your chain will last 5 times longer. The investment is worth it.

Recently 2 cyclists got knocked very badly in the Edenvale area(Gauteng) by a Lady that went across 4 lanes and hit them head on, apparently, she was on some medication, one cyclist is in hospital in an induced coma, other one recovering with a few broken bones.

ICE band is the easiest and very cheap, R110 last time I got mine.

Looks like a near perfect day out - I am not even riding, and I am getting excited.

I think I have won the Garmin lotto, I have had a number of garmin products with only one issue, I bought a FR205 with Zero issues, then I bought a FR225 "unboxed" from Garmin when they still did the unboxed deals, it failed within 6 months, that was replaced by a FR235, I had that for around 2 years sold it bought a Vivoactive 4, after 2 years, I bought a FR965, still have it, all of the watches with Zero issues, Not even mentioning my Edges, I had an Edge 500, then got a 810, sold it got a 520, sold it and got a 530 on a Evans cycles Black Friday special, passed that onto my wife and I now have an Edge 540, all with Zero issues. My only problem so far is the heart rate straps, I use a very old wahoo strap with a Garmin pod - as I said I think I won the Garmin Lotto.
