tiny hijack.... but doesnt SJS sell complete groupsets?

frustrating yes....i mailed them 2 days ago and am yet to receive a reply also looking for an alternative store

i am definately making a turn next week....supposed to be an easy week but we shall see just how 'easy' it's gonna be...hehe

must be referring to argus....website says it's closed http://www.chapmanspeakdrive.co.za/

climbed OKW from tokia side this morning, and this incident was on my mind all the way up

awesome pics

this is sad....goodness. i train there regularly. u just never know when it could be your last condolenses to the ppl he has left behind

such a shame. i do hope he is ok and makes a full recovery

yip....two other threads about this today already check www.cycletour.co.za

a spot to regroup? i think more like a spot to be dropped

Where is the barracade situated if going up from sun valley.? I went up from hout bay over the weekend and could get all the way to the peak before having to turn around. here i thought there was one barracade....

^ i guess i'm not gonna be lucky: "From a logistical perspective and in order not to disrupt the construction work being undertaken to upgrade the safety measures on Chapman's Peak Drive, the road will only be open only on the day of the event from 06h00 to 18h00. The Provincial Government will make arrangements to ensure that construction equipment is cleared and that work currently underway does not impede participants on the route." is it allowed to ride chappies from sun valley side until the barracade and turn around?

now i wonder how long before the argus will it be open....would like to ride it without potentially being harrassed!

woohooo

awesome pics!!!! looking at the results.....i dunno how u Elites and SV's avg close to 40km/h...OMG!!!

thanks guys !

so which sites do some of u use for online ordering? i know of CRC...which others?

thanks for the link. velo u sly one hehe i've been keeping an eye on the groupsets for sale yeah...need to relook

ah ok, 10 speeds have narrower cages...if i think about it logically well i guess i'm off shopping on the hub for a chain, cassette and STI's thx turtlek

well i did a search on the deraileur and got a spec off the shimano website which said 8 or 9 speed.... and the FD is obviously not affected by your cluster. never upgraded parts before so i am really clueless. why i ask, cause my FD (6401) came up as a 7/8 speed

well if i decide to go 10 speed then the RD is useless i am not sure whether to go 105 or ultegra though. they both are 10 speed right? it's currently an 8 speed

would it be worth it to keep these older shimano parts and match with newer 105's or Ultegra??? Brakes - DA BR-7402 Rear deraileur - Ultegra RD-5600 (think 9 speed)

...and how does one peak for an event?
