  1. I like the handlebar detail !!
  2. Adam Hansen move from pro cycling to triathlon https://cyclingtips.com/2020/10/adam-hansen-on-his-move-to-ironman-i-just-cant-wait-for-this-new-chapter/
  3. EF Pro Cycling to ride special Rapha x Palace Skateboards kit and bikes at Giro d’Italia https://road.cc/content/tech-news/ef-education-first-special-edition-rapha-x-palace-277679
  4. World Triathlon officially launches new brand identity https://www.triathlon.org/news/article/world_triathlon_launches_new_identity
  5. If you are just doing structured workouts, there is ERGVideo https://ergvideo.com/ErgVideo-free/whats-free (windows platform) The software is free and you can import your workouts, else if you use Trainingpeaks and have a plan, you can set up to directly import your daily workout. There are also some free plans, but have not tried them
  6. I have seen Veloton are launching soon, not holding my breath. i signed up for beta testing over 2 yrs ago, still yet to receive any response or anything further on it. Over the years they release video snippets of people racing on the platform, to sort of keep people interested.... so will wait and see!!
  7. Seems another player will soon be in the market. You can sign up to be a beta tester https://cycleroyale.com/ Anyone heard anything about Cycle Royale? FB page created a week ago https://www.facebook.com/cycleroyale
  8. Just ride them, am sure they will be fine. I have Chinese, 38mm, 50mm and a 55/88 combo for the tri-bike and have ridden them all for the past 5-6 years without issue. You could probably take the Bora stickers off, with a hair dryer and a plastic scraper (plenty youtube vids on this) and then have unbranded wheels like many of us. Plenty discussed here on using Chinese wheels https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/128083-chinese-carbon-wheels/?hl=chinese
  9. There already been emails and social media saying it not happening. Even posted on the hub https://community.bikehub.co.za/features/_/news/industry-news/new-owner-for-947-ride-joburg-r8171 So you can stop getting nervous
  10. November cancelled https://www.ironman.com/im-south-africa
  11. Using Mobdro on android box and watching on ITV4
  12. If you going to record everything with Garmin, don't bother uploading from Zwift (turn off the sync), then won't be duplicate. Just upload from Garmin 520 I suspect you have connected via bluetooth and your garmin HR is ANT+ and is why not showing up in Zwift
  13. Looks like an FSA crank 3x with chairning bolts. Remove all 3 chainrings, put a 32T narrow wide chainring where the middle one was. You will probably need single chainring bolts. Get chainring and bolts from https://www.rapide.co.za/product/rapide-single-chainring-bolt-set-of-5/ You will need to know what the BCD of the middle ring is (might be written on the chainring you take off) else you will have to measure it. Remove FD, cabling and shifter and should be good to go once crank refitted.
  14. You can try it for free and will likely answer all your questions
  15. Ant+ because it is the most stable and does not suffer with interference from other devices like bluetooth does
  16. We only just got the Alphafly Next%, and already another Nike Next% shoe on the way, predicted release September USD200 Air Zoom Tempo Next% https://www.nike.com/za/running/zoom-tempo https://hypebeast.com/2020/8/nike-running-air-zoom-tempo-flyease-next-2020-release-info?amp=1
  17. Have only read articles where athletes have blacked them out to run in rather than in their sponsored shoes.
  18. Nike Alphafly R5300 https://www.nike.com/za/t/air-zoom-alphafly-next-racing-shoe-mGK8M0/CI9925-100
  19. I follow a reviewer on YouTube "The FOD Runner" and he raves about them.
  20. Really, just after I have done the referral to next year, what options they given you? As the deferral of Weymouth, after advising because of C19 I could not fly, afford the quarantine time required by the UK government coming from SA, they let me defer to 2021 also saying that it was not the norm but would allow it. I subsequently queried whether would be possible to defer to Bahrain in December rather and was advised no and that my allocation for Weymouth 2021 has already been done and if for any reason I cannot make it then, I will not be able to defer further, even though the initial deferring was not of my doing but because of logistics of flights, quarantine and C19 pandemic. So if there are other options, I might go back to them and see.
  21. I got the same thing with my deferral of Weymouth, after advising because of C19 I could not fly, afford the quarantine time required by the UK government coming from SA, they let me defer to 2021 also saying that it was not the norm but would allow it. I subsequently queried whether would be possible to defer to Bahrain in December rather and was advised no and that my allocation for Weymouth 2021 has already been done and if for any reason I cannot make it then, I will not be able to defer further, even though the initial deferring was not of my doing but because of logistics of flights, quarantine and C19 pandemic.

  23. Get a track bike or fixie/SS and change it to what you want https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/c/track-bikes
