  1. http://crosstowncycles.wordpress.com/about/ Crosstown Cycles Contact Details Phone Number: 021 761 0112 Speak to Olaf.
  2. Crosstown Cycles in Kenilworth just off the main road next to the 7 eleven or Woodstock cycle works but crosstown probably a better option.
  3. Too true. I nod, wave hand, move elbow depending on conditions as a way of greeting. What gets to me is when some people don't respond.
  4. Never heard of Woodstock cycles. Just kidding. They rock.
  5. So true, I like retro bikes, casamila in Woodstock now import ss retro bikes. Problem is they are brand new and have no heritage. You can get an old frame for next to nothing and ride a true retro ss or spend loads of cash on a brand new ss. Maybe I'm just weird.
  6. It's Olympic cycles, what did you expect? Comment to be taken lightly.
  7. OK the thing is, everyone has different bums to put it bluntly. So peter might like the Fizik but for you it might be too narrow. The only way to really be comfortable is measure your sit bones and buy a saddle which allows your sit bones to do their job properly. I am super comfortable on my specialized saddle as it fits my rear. My rolls saddle is really uncomfortably and I don't dig it. My bum get's sore and my area goes numb. So generally to me the width of the saddle is important and if it has an indented center so that I don't go numb.
  8. Specialized saved my bum. Get your sit bones measured and buy accordingly.
  9. I read boobs.
  10. It's your email address in your signature. Write it out so: mobilebicycletechnix a t yahoo d o t c o m.
  11. Yebo, bought from edge design. Very light bike.
  12. Bought from edge design if you bought the scott with sram force.
  13. Too high a pressure and you bounce over everything. I had tubbies and used to pump them up to 170 psi, what a stupid thing for me to do. 115psi at the front and 120psi at the rear works for me, weight 82 kg's.
  14. More rolling resistance and a fairly heavy tire. Any race tyre will roll nicely but costs a bit more and will be lighter which means less tyre? It's a trade off.
  15. What functions are you talking about? No point bashing it but not mentioning what it can't do.
  16. Look at the dates. Fake.
  17. Softie. Nicer ride. edit: I would go for a hardtail as it's cheaper to maintain and I have always ridden a hardtail. (but it can become a bit harsh on really rocky tracks).
  18. Never believe the km's a bicycle has done. I cover 100km's in one ride sometimes so they basically rode it once and now want to sell it. Pffft.
  19. PM me if you go with the order. It's 2 Michelin pro 3 race tyres btw.
  20. 420 worth of stuff.
  21. It's a hazard. Going onto main road from Boyes is not cool. Very steep hill and loads of hooligans.
  22. Bryton is cheaper and better. Collects bryton pay slip.
  23. Word of advice, Drop the ipod idea. Very dangerous even if it's only one ear.
