And the more humans the greater the chance for disappointment. Perhaps that's where the smaller online operators are a little better. 🤷‍♂️

On the road repairs are often just to get you back home. Most slug applicators work well enough for this but Dynaplug is apparently the gold standard while some will say it's the Stans Dart. If using slugs, complete a more permanent repair (mushroom plug etc) when home.

This.! The sense of entitlement is crazy and evident all the time. Nothing and nobody else matters to these individuals.

Wasn't the tragic loss in Sea Point not so long ago also a door.? I too got taken out by a door in Green Point in 2016. Also seen a few others over the years, not to mention the near missed. So yes, it happens more often than you realise with differing resultant damage.

It's the door that's flung open from your blindspot as you're passing that doesn't even give you time to close your eyes.

Another reckless door.! 🤬

Sidelined myself from MTB about 10 years ago ... back when 26ers were still common and 27.5 and 29 had just become fashionable. 🤣 Needless to say, not only have frame standards changed but so too have groupsets and suspension parts. Would this Cypher Calypso be regarded as entry level dual sus MTB by current standards.?

Thanks TRB. Having had a pink T-Mobile Giant TCR road bike, the Calypso's paint job is quite manly. 🤣

I see that some dealers advertise the Calypso as a Ladies MTB, some not. What's the opinion of the Hubbers.?

Polar still makes a good strap imo ... don't know if it's any better than any of the generic though. At the same price I'd get the Polar (which was the case the last time I needed to replace) otherwise I'd probably take a chance on the cheapest generic. With regards Ant+/BLE, suspect that's dependent on the transponder rather than the strap.

Just got some airtime on KFM news ... PPA advising to a avoid the area. Mention of 17 incidents to date.
