If not so potent, then at least a few wheelies for the fans. 😊 Legend.!!

I think many, me included, find them in the position of not being able to gauge the value of the instrument without having used it. I am finding myself more and more interested in one though ... Strongs to the fallen rider. 🙏

* double post *

Once popular with options from Mavic, Zipp, Bontrager, American Classic, HED etc, the design has become somewhat dated with most moving in favour of a full carbon wheel.

Noted. I generally use the original but at some point gave the Endurance a try.

Ok, seems I may have myself to blame. That said, will definitely pay more attention to this when purchasing sealant.

I wonder if this could've contributed... need to check if there are any dates on the the bottle.

What is the situation with stored sealant.? Does it have a shelf life.?

So Orangeseal failed me today. ☹️ No obvious reason why. Not a particularly big puncture, and adequate amount of sealant in the tyre. Anyway, now to wash down a sealant covered biked. 🤦‍♂️

Remco was probably just warming up while still in shot ... He very quickly disappeared into the sunset. Amateurs should know to give the pros a little more space. Imagine a pro being sidelined because he was taken down by some weekend warrior. 🤦‍♂️

I'm always in favour of a gentleman's agreement to go easy over any climb that comes that early, but my lobbying generally falls on deaf ears. 🙈

Many of us share your frustration. 🤬 Glad your member is ok under the circumstances.

No personal experience but remembered seeing this for what it's worth: And review below is from the Trifox site.

Better places/options/times are seemingly becoming fewer and fewer ... ☹️

LOL... sounds very familiar. 6am ride also became a 7:30am solo effort ... I was awake/up but just found getting done so difficult. 😊

This never gets old ...

Agreed. Perhaps a Parlee or Aurum. 🤷‍♂️ Otherwise maybe something custom from https://www.calculus-bikes.com/ 😍

Cheapest or free.? I suspect the outcomes are very different.

You mention footage, so I'd say be guided by what is revealed there. I had a shop overtorque a front derailleur clamp and crack the frame ... needless to say they took no responsibility for it ... Good luck.!

That unfortunately sums up my last experience with their online option too. Wanted to buy a couple of items but could just never conclude. Eventually I lost interest ... Glad your situation appears as if it will be resolved to your satisfaction.

Assuming you were not part of the problem. 🙈 What I get from this and already subscribe to is seek a significant other who has no interest in cycling other than supporting you ... it's just so much simpler. 😊

Festive season is one of the few times I can actually get out and ride mid week, but it's also the time I often think twice about going out for this very reason. 😥

Wow.! That's tantamount to CTCT being held in Paarl.
