  1. .someone say Valverde? The only thing that springs to mind is the World Champs in Hamilton Canada…LOL. The Spanish knew his was game for alternative, shall we say…opportunities! 😂
  2. What VPN are you using?
  3. .. the difference is, only one oke can pop a wheelie without “Phok”! 🤭
  4. .. interesting, I was under the impression that was still under consideration. Do you know when they filed it?
  5. With more even distribution… the disc hub now wouldn’t carry as much strain as current hub design, hence why You can go lighter with just a four set arrangement. If the guys at the big HQ’s look real close, this could be the next big thing… I’d SRAM them….🤭 and bring that tech in-house.
  6. Checkout my post on the new hub development from KOM… I think that’s the way forward… evaluating proper load distribution. Finally something that Holds real engineering progress vs marketing boardroom tricks to keep the lights on.
  7. .. just don’t ask what they do during lunchtime!😂
  8. Campag out priced themselves with the 13, it’s not often you see a one model released. I thought a Ekar Light would come to light and offer there past formulas as per all previous products, but no, I think glory days are over form our QR pioneers. Look at the Pro Peleton, one team uses Campag. 😬 Will campag stay with 13? Or is 14 a new target?
  9. Is prefer to only see what he did for the sport, his had a tough time dealing with his fame at a young age. I can’t really point fingers at him. He easily could derailed it all like JU, but he didn’t. Sure towards the end of all amazing riders the game changes. Just look at the racing stats on pro crashes, huge increases from year to year. His voiced his concern several times about the high risks riders are doing, and sub average UCI Finish lines. His done well as one does as you wind down your career. The man still has an engine… and I’m sure his numbers are still healthy IMHO And his not completely done… let’s just hope his past mistakes are just that.
  10. All tech geeks… pull up a chair, the future is here.
  11. 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.
  12. 6 seems to be the popular one… I wonder if Sram will even continue down that road, it’s not just here…🤔
  13. 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…🤓
  14. .. so this is what you guys do between 1 and 2pm. Noted* 🤭
  15. 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?🤔
  16. What a beauty! 👀, I’d use my lunch time to go Home and see her.🤓
  17. Well… at least Bukehub can see who are using their lunch break wisely! 😂😂😂
  18. 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.🤭
  19. .. 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.😃
  20. Tried calling SRAM local distributor, I get an automated message that they closed between 1 and 2? Is this a Slap Stad thingy?
  21. Bigger gear ratio jumps on a 1x…, it depends what floats your boat. Best to try out both and make a choice..
  22. …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. 🤓🤭
  23. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 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! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
