  1. I found a multi tool at Groenkloof this morning. If you lost it and can identify it then please contact me.
  2. bet it's quicker to change a tube on a loose wheel than one that is attached to a bike...
  3. you need to rethink your frame size. that just looks wrong...
  4. funny, they never say that when you go to test drive a sports car...
  5. squirt?! hahaha you guys are hilarious...
  6. It looks like Cancellara is not so keen on riding his sram chain anymore... image from cyclingnews.com
  7. my small blocks are 2.1 if u're still interested
  8. stans, joes and other amonia based sealants react with the co2 to dry out the sealant. if you use a fiber based sealant such as oko you wont have the same problems. if you are going to bomb your tire with stans in it then use an innovations big air canister as it's not compressed co2
  9. i had a choc berry this afternoon, awesome bar. hadn't had lunch and the bar kept me going till dinner...
  10. something unique comes to mind. take a look at these! http://www.lapierre-bikes.co.uk/lapierre/road-bike/webseries also bear in mind that you are going to feel the most difference in your wheels so spend the money there. and campag, need i say more...
  11. these poor bike shops make next to nothing and service your bikes for even less, then get dragged over the coals when they realize that if they don't do anything about their margins they're going to go belly up...
  12. seanGT, put the small block on the rear. it is a much faster tyre, less rolling resistance...
  13. i've had them for just over a year now and i'm still on the 1st pair of cleats. the alu plate that you walk on is wearing but the parts that serve the function of clipping in and out still appear fine, so yes they do last longer than plastic cleats.
  14. i changed from dura-ace to speedplay. the adjustability of the pedals was key for me. i had problems with my itb for a couple of years and only after changing did i get over the problem. all in all i'd say a really comfortable pedal with fantastic float adjustment system...
  15. not necessarily the case... grease, being thicker, will result in some freewheels dragging as you freewheel at higher speeds. the mavic wheels are particularly prone to this. you need something thicker than chain oil and thinner than grease. mixing the 2 to until you reach an optimum consistency works well.
