I bought a pair of Fox Defend Pants from Fox Racing South Africa but sent them back as their sizing is just wrong and they didn't have a larger size in stock. They looked like very good quality. https://www.foxracing.co.za/products/defend-pant They have confirmed that they are getting Fox Ranger Pants in at the end of May. So will purchase a pair as soon as they land https://www.foxracing.co.za/products/ranger-pant Want to try them for winter riding and I think they will look better at a coffee stop than winter lycra's

SE Converted Scalpel 3. Very happy with the ride.

That is a beauty! Would also be interested in some pricing info

No more struggling with Suunto's crappy BLE HR Sensor that seldom works. Used it a couple of times without any issues, so so far so good

They might just need a different photographer. The saddles always look in the wrong position in their photos. But they are bringing out really nice looking stuff

Was really good to see Mr Meintjies at the front yesterday.

That how you know that you have hit a 4 or 5 star sector, they go for an add break! Glad Gilbert won. He is one classy bike rider.

Is the weight per tire really 700 grams Maxxis Rambler's weigh in at 375 grams.

Would be great if Advendurance actually confirmed with Sun International as well of their plans to move the event. Then maybe Sun International would be able to move the accommodation bookings for the Promo Group Code Race to the new date. Although I agree that it was a tough decision to make, I think it's pathetic that the head in the sand approach is being taken regarding assisting with logistical re-arrangement. They are the professionals and should have means in place to assist with most eventualities. If you are able to negotiate preferred rates for an event, you must have the means to open that channel to make amendments. Currently the single most expensive single day event in the country!

Oh That is nice!!!! Wonder if we'll see some of the mainstream brand Gravel Frames on Paris Roubaix? Surely a slick 40c tyre would soak up the cobbles.

The race day presentations are going to be exceptional with both those characters in the mix.

Two giants of the world of cycling will form the high-powered MERIDA FACTORY RACING team to leave their mark on the 2017 ABSA Cape Epic. José Antonio Hermida and Joaquim Rodríguez (Purito) have shared many training miles over the years so now both riders have stepped back from the world of UCI World Cup Racing and the professional road racing world respectively, new challenges have been bubbling away in the back of their minds.

Just my 2c. Think that it is tough to expect Max to publicly crucify his buds if they are actual friends. I am sure if you asked Max he would not condone the actions of BS and KE. But if they are proper friends, that friendship is probably worth a lot more to him. I would like to think that my friends will stick with me even if I manage to cock up for some or other selfish reason. On a different note. Can't wait to see the 2017 RM Element on the top step of some podiums.

Been eyeing these for a while now. Excellent price and service from the guys at http://www.cycleteknix.co.za

Look awesome

Must have been a tough decision to leave Phil Buys. Chuffed for Alan Hatherly none the less.

Ah. Obviously

So based on that, what you are saying is that Dan Martin dopes. Lizzy Armistead dopes. Karl Platt and Urs Huber dopes. Annika Langvad and Arianne Kleinhans dopes.

Why no Linus Gerdemann?

I have FSA Team Issue Crankset that uses a MegaExo 8060 BB. It is time to replace the BB and I am struggling to source one. Any suggestions if alternates such as Shimano or Chris King will work? http://ftp.cyclingnews.com/photos/2006/tech/shows/eurobike06/eurobike064/CK_C8060CC_TeamIssueMegaExo_Comp.jpg

Philip Buys and Kevin Evans. They are also both on Scotts. I think Nino and Vogel will partner for Epic.

My wife purchased one of these during the holidays. Awesome and great value for money. http://www.severin.com/gb/The-perfect-coffee/Fully-automated-machines/Fully-Automatic-Coffee-Machine-S2-One-Touch-KV-8001 http://www.severin.com/var/asmsev/storage/images/webseite/start/kaffeegenuss/vollautomaten/kaffeevollautomat-s2-one-touch-kv-8001/112289-32-ger-DE/KV-8001_product-medium.jpg

When you get a chance.

2x Ridiculously hot bikes. I would love to see what they look like if you swop the wheelsets. The E-Thirteen's + ENVE bars would look super hot.

You should consider the Rocky Mountain Vertex 990 or 999 RSL as well. Really an excellent bike, stiff and responsive. Plus if you are looking to spend that kind of money, the Element 999 or 970 RSL looks the business.
