  1. All tech geeks… pull up a chair, the future is here.
  2. I think with the advancements on the rear, riders are indirectly changing up in the front… I suppose now we are almost spoilt with options, but how long can this drive sales till it all stops at 14speed.
  3. 6 seems to be the popular one… I wonder if Sram will even continue down that road, it’s not just here…🤔
  4. Sure the guys had a few run ins but you need to dive into the guys history of on bike performances. We are at stage that no rider for another 50 years will do what his done. Yes, his celebrity of the sport and done the odd mad thing, but last I checked.. his still a legend. But if his around the WC, I hope you see him in a group ride…. and let’s see if you can hold his wheel while he munches on an energy bar…🤓
  5. .. so this is what you guys do between 1 and 2pm. Noted* 🤭
  6. Interesting that many people are ditching this ratio? There are 16 sellers currently all off loading and upgrading. Would love to know why? Cadence to high or nicer pairing in the rear?🤔
  7. What a beauty! 👀, I’d use my lunch time to go Home and see her.🤓
  8. Well… at least Bukehub can see who are using their lunch break wisely! 😂😂😂
  9. Finally.. some good banter from WC!LoL. It’s all good. Absolutely all good. Just taking a fun dig at all the laid back folks.🤭
  10. .. it’s just, ….I heard Cyril say.. SA is open for business! LOL. I assume WC didn’t get the memo? LOL. It’s all good.😃
  11. Tried calling SRAM local distributor, I get an automated message that they closed between 1 and 2? Is this a Slap Stad thingy?
  12. Bigger gear ratio jumps on a 1x…, it depends what floats your boat. Best to try out both and make a choice..
  13. …I remember the days of fresh rubber, open the casing, with a little soft powder on the fingers, nudge her nicely into position, put it in the hole.. and boom, you got it hard, up to 120… and off you went,… and ever she got pinched, I’d take her for a bath, and she would blow me bubbles. She would just ly there.. till I brought out my toolkit, and I’d patch her over my bench with the finest glue available, and squeeze her tight till she had no air in her… I miss these intimate moments. 🤓🤭
  14. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Amazing, you actually need to be invited to do the series… achievement all on its own! Looking forward to Matt “the machine” Beers kicking some Yankee ass! We all know his got the engine! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    Scam Alert

    .. we choose our battles! Can’t always be running high pressures…🤭
  16. Time to change course… well done! All the best for 2024!
  17. Firstly, don’t do any cowboy mechanic tricks with a HP. Seriously…. if you get one of Those hard erasers you just turn tires inside out and start rubbing, the heat should assist with breaking up sealant. Why waste water and put unnecessary pressure on casing. IMHO.
  18. I guess we won’t see RD on a bike any time soon. Retired too early IMHO. But now will be regulated to an indoor trainer me thinks…. How sad.😕
  19. Nice Stealth Bomber you have there!
  20. Because… they want you in there “groove” 🤭 it’s all part of the hook, line and sinker concept.
  21. Some brands will do a 24 up front and 28 rear…😉
  22. .. made for Italian champagne gravel roads.. if you know you know.
  23. I own an Airace, these guys have won countless awards…. mine has patented head, handles 4 different styles of valves. It also can bleed 2/3 psi! . Shock and tire compatibility. It features an angled aluminium shaft, no plastic cramp here. Thin on top and gets bigger at the bottom, so no rocking, stable performance. Still pushing solid bars, I will not surrender her. She lifts me up. See what I did there <
