Personally I do not think that it's all that bad, but I do belong to many other forums and I must say that the hub does seem to have the most perverts by far. Just my 2c worth.
Will put an extra case of beers in the fridge...must be terrible being without beer for three months, mind you Afgan is probably better known for other substances...... M
Got to admit that there are many stunning bikes in the Pro Tour this year, but the PRINCE is by far the most devine looking bike for sure. Cannot wait for mine!!!!
Racman, For 15K I will recomend a Pegoretti Marcello or Duende. You will never ride anything else after you ride a DARIO PEGORETTI custom built bike. Steel is real and thats the deal. M
Steve, here you go again. Why SHOULD we all use TACX? Or why carbon compound indeed? Perhaps if you explain why it would be useful. [/uNQUOTE] Simply put...because it freaking works. Put the paste on the handlebar/stem and seatppost and you will not have any squeakes or slipeage. The proof is in the pudding.
The local (jhb) guy has told my LBS this is normal (it was also leaking oil), I don't think it is. Today I spoke to a the rep? from Omnico and actually he was quite rude (and to be honest I was rude right back) but told me to leave my bike a the LBS and he'll have 'another look' . FOX make really good shocks.....but the local importer OMNICO and PTA/JHB rep really make things very difficult. Solution ....try ROCK SHOX.... at least they listen.
Colnago and Pinarello are starting to build certain of their carbon frames in the east. It's the only way they can compete against the mass producers like Giant etc. If you can't beat them, join them seems to be their new philosophy.
It's for classic builds like yours. The Concor Light is the more modern model that Lance used for many years and probably still does. It helps to be the importer of SSM.
