  1. Finished my CAAD12 build and it rides like a dream. Just need some nice deep sections now.
  2. Nice bike, may she bring you many happy miles. I've also just got myself a Caad12 frame and will be starting my build this week now that i have received mostly all of the parts and components.
  3. I just recently bought the same frame and want to fit the new Ultegra R8000 groupset on it. What BB conversion kit did you use, as I’m having issues with fitting the cable guide (not enough space between the frame and BB)? I got the Praxis BB30 conversion and it doesn’t seem to be compatible with the guide that fits under the frame.
  4. Not 29 March? 23rd was last week.
  5. The are two group to choose from in EL. The Eriks group that meets at 05:15 on a Tuesday and Thursday morning on the corner of Beach Road and Old Transkei Road in Nahoon. Or you can join the Tribal group in Beach Road, Nahoon. They leave at 05:00 from their shop on a Tuesday and Thursday morning and is a bit more of a relaxed pace. Both groups do around 30-40km and ride time is more or less and 1h30. Hope this helps. Enjoy your stay in Slummies.
  6. Racing Knysna Cycle Tour next weekend so I’m in urgent need of some Darkhorse race wheels. At 1,195 grams these babies will make the race a whole lot faster, on the up and down. + It will just complete my bike. http://i64.tinypic.com/17febc.jpg
  7. Agree, works for me as well. Never had a problem since using it. Best part is that its cheap as well.
  8. Well after last weekends performance he didn't look to be in top form for the classics + he had the strongest team.
  9. Doesn't look like it. Expecting sunny skies, light breezes and temps in the high 50s Fahrenheit.
  10. I don't see what all the fuss is about...it's just grass with a few rocks. #arenberg #jk pic.twitter.com/O3qMqOVzmj
  11. I just hope Paris Roubaix won’t be anything like it was in 2011. All the teams were marking a Cancellara out of the race, letting Johan Van Summeren slip away. No one was racing the race, they were racing Cancellara. "If I had stopped for coffee, they would have done the same" Wasn't nice to watch, but I suppose that’s bike racing. Go Fabian!!
  12. I'm sure that swill still change on the TV guide.
  13. Just saw now on Twitter that SS will broadcast RVV @14:00, SS8. Great news!!!
  14. Lol! Now that was a Classic!
  15. Also checked now. Looks like it will on SS8, starting at 13:00. Remember the uproar created last year on FB and Twitter when SS decided not to show it live? Well we got our way!
  16. Thanks for all the updates.
  17. GO FABIAN!! To me, the best classics rider.
  18. Also looks like the old Scott CR1 to me. http://images02.olx-st.com/ui/5/71/65/1268900483_81306665_1-Pictures-of--SCOTT-CR1-CR-1-TEAM-CARBON-ROAD-BIKE-W-DURA-ACE-NR.jpg
  19. I really enjoyed the racing last Saturday, great event and great prep for up coming events, can’t wait for this Saturday. Good fun!
  20. VA220 @ 06:05. Sien julle manne daar. Good luck en lekker trap!
