I have both crest and arch .I have used the crest bike only for training and the odd flattish race .Arch is obvious stiffer and stronger .I weigh 100kg and have had no problems i=n 3 years with the crests but i still will not bomb them at 60km/h down breed,s or similar descent like i would the arch set

A sub 3 hours this year will actually be a very good time .No more N14 bunch riding and the extra climbing .This year the fit and strong will survive . No more hiding behind others

What happens if insurace already paid out .Just curious?

Fire eye SS hub rear .Front depends on fork

Fire eye S hub rear .Front depends on fork

Not to highjack this thread ,but i want to sell my brand new rapide carbon fork with straigh stearer .Not because of this incident .The fork is to short to use in my SS and will change the geometry to much

No road bike has or had them ever ! .I have 4 bikes and I cannot tell you if they are on or not .I know my laaitie looks at his occasionally mostly just before he takes a tumble .You never look at your handlebars EVER !

Same here .If i have little time i train harder over the same time period to make it worthwhile .I seldom check distance or heartrate when training and train until the wife calls or i don,t enjoy it anymore .For stage events i will do the hours ,but make them count .There is no time for long slow rides anyway

Even if the did you never look at anyway .No loss!

Anthem !Had one .Loved it !

No reason to enter the dark side .We all came from there

That is if you weigh as much as a parasite infested springbok in winter time .About 30kg ! Ok maybe 40kg,s !

Yup! We rate it as a brake cooking descent .In my case it was

Like always there is the F#$%^ SIZE not mentioned problem

Always pimp it until you start feeling embarrassed then back down slightly

Must be pretty lame team effort. IMO Porto did great work yesterday .If Berto had him in his team ,things would be different for team Sky

Why would somebody like Contador not be in a team ?

My first car was an Alfetta 2litre .Second was a Gulietta 1,8L .I miss those tempramental babies .After them i went for reliabilty and ended up with 3Toyotas

I use a bottle of lube between 4 bikes per year at a cost of R100 a bottle .How on earth is that being ripped of

Had 2 anthem's .Currently Tallboy .My riding buddies are always fixing stuff on their leftie.s

Used to buy online a lot .Problem is you buy stuff because of pricing and not because you need them .Sizing and models arn,t always the same as what you ordered .I have bought to much stuff that were wrong and the savings are minimal .I often buy things on the hub with great success. .Bought winter gloves yesterday at my LBS .The L,XL and XXL all fitted ,but the XL was just right in this particular brand

Love it!

Take it slow and watch your heart rate carefully .I am still getting exercise induced asthma at the 90min mark .Planning to ride 45km on my easy geared SS on Sunday just to make things more interesting

I did the monster feeling like that .Not a good idea to ride such an event if you are ill .I have not recovered fully and may only do the half marathon on Sunday

Take the crampblock tab,s and also take Rehidrat before and during .You have to increase your salt intake and Rehidrat has plenty of all you need and a Ph buffer .
