So what is the distance for the long route riders? and elevation?
I have one for sale - never used R300
Anyone know where I can book last minute bike service for saturday?
If you are in the market for a new bike (cannondale) please let me know ;-)
I have a different experience from all the above. Changed from M9000 to Level ult. XTR were either on or off and felt the lever was a bit wonky but believe that was addressed with the m9100.
Level's modulate nicely and the lever feel is much better.
Everyone has personal preference, you won't know until you try yourself.
Comparison in weight?
I currently ride the Sram Level Ultimates, was riding XTR before.
XTR was hands down the better of the two.
I find the Srams squishy and inconsistent even after serving and being checked by the bike mechanics at multiple shops.
I have never had a good experience with any Sram brakes.
Next upgrade for me is brakes back to the XTR.
Many thanks! What rotors ad size would you recommend ?
Hi Hubbers -
Can anyone give me the difference in braking between these 2 ???
I assume both is very light but when it comes to braking power, which one is better option and why??
How do they compare to each other on muddy and wet terrain???
Entered! Anyone familiar with the 60km.....all I see is climbs :-)
I ave brand new one for R300 if anyone is looking for one
Based on all the hype I bought one to replace my aging WTB Rocket. To be honest its the most uncomfortable saddle I have ever used. After one ride I took it off.
Are you talking about the FORCE saddle?
If so.....have you ever tried the Power Saddle of Specialized? It's something to get used to
I had the Power Saddle Expert / S-Works Power Carbon Saddle and it feels the same as the Force Saddle I'm currently have on new bike...... NO DIFFERENCE!!!!
Did 100 miler earlier this year and no issues
I see Cycles United Online are selling for R499. Anyone know of a cheaper price online.
Edit: Bike Addict have it for R295.
Bike Addict

So who else are doing this event ?
As my 8yo son and 10yo daughter's first ever MTB "race", they had a blast. The mud and river crossings were so much fun for them.
What made it awesome from my point of view was how many people (especially those on the 50km race who blasted past us) shouted encouragement to both of my kids. Almost brought a tear to my eye. I had a good cackle at one lady who said "how awesome, daughter and dad date", and then someone who said "Amy will be proud" (He was wearing a BreakAway shirt). One gent had to do some rapid avoiding action as my son veered in front of him in the mud, nearly causing a fall, but all good. Just a smile and a wave.
The camaraderie was amazing. I'm just sorry to the guy who I tried to help with his bomb that got stuck and I emptied his tyre of sealant. I hope you managed to finish.
Events like this make it great for me to be a dad of kids taking up the sport.
And the organization was excellent.
I remember the 3 of you, awesome to see this and encourage them from young age!
Was one of them cheering them on, congrats to all of you!
Bring back Eikestad Venue and routes of DIE BURGER MTB CHALLENGE !!!!!
Ok so a few people here are doing training plans on Zwift, GREAT! But do you feel improvement in fitness and strength when riding outside after completing a training plan?
No, there are many rides that does not require a Smart trainer, some structured workout tell you at what watts you should be so you can control it yourself.
I'm using a Stages SC1 training bike....I thought Zwift is best with Smart Trainers so I was looking at TrainerRoad (also mostly for smart trainers) with their structured workouts and just manually adjust to watts required ?
Get yourself a Cadence sensor loose and speed sensor loose(like the new Garmin type even wahoo does them) then you can join Zwift or Rouvy.
Thanks man! I already have power meter / speed / cadence and heart rate monitor but not a smart trainer, so I think I won't get the most out of zwift then ?
Hi Hubbers....
Does anyone know off virtual spinning classes available online or Tablet Apps where you can subscribe and do some indoor spinning sessions?
Don't have a smart trainer so only something I can do with normal spinning bike and add some fun and decent workouts ?
CycleOps Phantom 5......anyone using it daily that I can contact?
