The ASSOS Mille GT C2 bibs are DEFINITELY not the same quality as their predecessors. Was a big shock to me, taking in to consideration what you pay and what your are use to......

My GB came to me with Shimano GRX installed, being 1x11. I've got the option of either a 40 or 42 in front. Would one really look at more than that? Not sure I want to change to 2x?

Speed Company made a comment in their pre-race interview re the implications of a 2-3 minute deficit in the prologue. Hope it does not come back to bite them......

Again, no disrespect meant, read my previous post. In those minutes where the cyclists chose their rights over those of motorists, you could have had a accident involving multiple vehicles and maybe even some of the cyclists, given the narrow road. So yes, sorry you feel offended. Enjoy riding!

Hi there, I've lived in Paarl for a good 15 years and I am a cyclist. You also being part of this town will know there are sections with no shoulders, no yellow lines, real narrow sections, especially driving out south. Bikes being ridden 2 and 3 abreast at 11h30 in the morning just ain't really cool. That was what I was trying to get across. The value of the bikes make no difference in the issue being right or wrong. I referred to the bikes and tried to point out by "valueing" them that these chaps are seasoned riders, know the rules and know the issues we as cyclists have to deal with. Not the chap who has just pulled his 20 year old Raleigh for the next week's casual ride. I mean no disrespect to the said riders, I merely ask, knowing the risks involved and the animosity caused, why seasoned guys must still do it, block the road for their benefit. I am sorry if I have offended anyone here, never the idea. Cheers

To the four roadies (black and white tops), on your very expensive bikes in the Main Road of Paarl, holding up a line of cars whilst you are riding well abreast of each other. NOT COOL, not cool at all when we are, on a daily basis, delving in to the reasons for the issues between cyclists and motorists. NEE MAN, wees lekker!

What a shocker. Strongs there Dale, heal well! 👊

I sent a mail asking certain questions prior to my purchase. I got responded to rather quickly! Send David another mail, unfortunately these days one's computer has the ability to "decide" which mails you see..... david@everydaycyclesupplyco.com

Just did, thanks. Won't be winning any prizes based on complimentary commenting

Thank you

Morning everyone, I am needing to replace a 10speed Shimano rear derailleur. New would be first price, well looked after second hand will do. I'll take 105 and upwards, the code on the 105 is PD5701. Thanks

Thanks, appreciate the advice. Just rather gatvol of being taken for a ..... by an industry where pricing is already at a premium. And yes, I am raging(apologies), I don't have an issue with everyone earning a little of the cake, but don't make me the prisoner for you wanting to eat the whole cake.

I cannot think it would be Shimano itself? How does it make sense for them to "block" themselves? If it's Cool Heat, how exactly is that not "anti competitive" practises?

I'm trying to get some replacement parts for my drivetrain and brake units, XTR components. Standard answer is nobody has stock, Shimano cannot deliver. Deliveries "could" be possible late June, middle July. You can, however, get from overseas, not cheaper, but they have stock. Guess what - sorry, no deliveries of Shimano parts to SA. So the bigwigs at Shimano can keep us at ransom for their shite production schedules and lack of understanding of "freedom of choice"? Sitting here wondering how we just allow it? Nee man, NOT COOL!!!
