    Formula 1...

    Running these shows seems quite a task..... https://youtu.be/6OLVFa8YRfM

  3. Don't dare come to this forum with anything remotely interesting, we are all suckers for information. Been a rather interesting discussion!
  4. I just cannot get my head around this frame concept? How strong could it be, surely only for roadbike purposes?
  5. All VERY SERIOUS for a wannabe Friday?!
  6. I honestly think we as S.A. suckers get taken for a ride here. There is no way you sell out in 10 seconds. Remember, the foreign entries earn more income for the new corporate owner. From there they just make oodles more money off that willing participant. Oh yes, remember they can hide behind their corporate sponsor entries for their local "content". An audit on this process could be interesting!!
  7. It is time..... Enjoy all Epic 2018 riders, keep the rubber on the surface (or rocks)!
  8. Can't find WTB's to replace my current ones, any suggestions from the more seasoned Epic riders on tyre choice?
  9. So new water restriction measures announced today (quite severe). Whilst I understand the tourist value of the event is it not a bit "selfish" of the organisers to forge ahead with such an event when capetonians, cyclists included, are staring down the barrel of a gun with severe water shortages? Surely both organisers and participants need to understand the direct and indirect effect this event can have on the already stretched resources........ Not wanting to stir a fight, just putting some rational thinking out there!
  10. Same here, spent even more than that. All kinds of shite with the order, even me having to return parts which were duplicated in the order. But a bottle of vino....? Not a chance!!!!
  11. Hi guys, Any news for me on the above as nothing meaningful has changed to the order status nor the reversing of the double payment?
  12. CWC, your mailbox seems full, so I have to resort to this kind of communication. Afternoon guys, order number 113591, I'm super concerned about this order. I've yet to receive a confirmation that my order was received by you guys. Yes, on my account status with you it shows "processing". Due to problems on your side I've had to pay twice for this order, a rather substantial amount and it has gone off my account twice. I'm not really happy being out of pocket for that kind of money. I'd really appreciate some help here, 1) sorting out whether my order actually exists and 2) giving me my second payment back into my account. Please give me some feedback? Thank you
  13. So, my assumption is that every single high end bike out there, no names, is overpriced. We are being fleeced by our own quest to ride the "perfect" bike. The market feeds on this trait and thus keeps on stocking the market. Perfection just comes at a high price. Imagine none of us upgrade a single bike for one year? The other point is that PYGA maybe still plays in the "exclusive" market. A good offering, and not every second chap is riding one.......
  14. Rear travel, I THINK, is 110mm. I was very sceptical in raising the nose of the bike. for my type of riding it seems the 120mm is just right..... Can take it to 140mm later, but muuuuch later.....
  15. So here we go. New MAX colours with 120mm Fox 34 on the front. My first venture outside of the ordinary Fox 32 100mm setups. I don't have enough balls to ride this fast beast...... This setup does not really understand "limits".
  16. So how does one get it to SA if you change "delivery location"? Or am I being "dof"?
  17. Where/ how/ what does one do for a bike tracking device? I'd rather give him/ them my bike and get some possible payback later...... I'm sure shortterm insurance companies will start making this a "need to have" on high end bikes.
  18. Yikes, not exactly what I want to see right now?!
  19. How much duty did they charge you on the unit? See those prices are very good!!
