Winspace Hyper 50

Thank you for the replies. If i get a good box then it wont be a waste, i just dont see using it within the next 2 years. Theres a Evoc for under R3500 which i feel is a good deal for that level of box. Looks like theres a few options that I've got to weigh up

A bit of a revival. I'll be flying to Perth and I've got 1 bike to take with. I won't be coming back soon or traveling once there. Do i get a proper bike bag/box ie Thule/Evoc or do I just use a cardboard bikebox? Issue I have with cardboard box is the transport both here and there as those boxes are huge and you'll need a bakkie to transport comfortably. There are some good 2nd Thules/Evocs on the market but saving 4k Vs a cardboard box is massive What are your thoughts?

Hey, has anyone recently bought from https://torchsa.com/ Are they Legit?

Have a chat to Ian @Vye. Excellent service, flexible with orders and really really good turn around times once designs and costs have been finalized. Our first order of 35 odd bibs and 45 jerseys took about 7 work days...#nopressure😝

I would go TCR, bombproof frame and I recon it'll be a lighter build too. Which ever one you go for make sure the size is right

I recently had a look at the Storck range, Cycling friends was at the last wp league race and no where did I see a UCI sticker. Not that it means much but is it UCI approved? @Sidmouth That Merida offers the best bang for buck for its spec. Goodluck with the purchase!

Good day everyone I need to replace the chains on 2 roadbikes. Sram 1110 on the one bike and Red22 on the other 1110 rider loves X-chaining and is more worn than the Red22 but both need replacing. I like the 1110 as its cheap hard wearing ( if not X-chaining, LOL) and the Red22 I normally fit on race weekend. I left the red22 on since the DC. I clean and lube the chains about every 2 weeks and I use Squirt as lube. 7 months, +-5500km is too little for my liking, How will Shimano Dura Ace (Ultegra not much cheaper) HG901 compare to the Sram Chains? Thanks!

Thank you for this! They don't have Gamestop tho????

Hi Fanie Unfortunately EE does not have what i'd like to buy, looks like EE is more SA based companies

Hi everyone Anyone using https://za.investing.com/ ? I signed up with etoro last week only to be notified that they are not accepting SA accounts anymore and then I found the site above. Are they Legit? looking at buying stock of an American company Lekker day for everyone!

Winspace hyper 50s for the win. Theres someone on bikehub selling them. Have a look on youtube for reviews but so far soo gooood!

Merlin is great, did a purchase a month or 2 ago. As long as its just bike parts, wheels, tubes, tyres, groupset etc its just supposed to be 15% and R150 admin fee to DHL. They once threw in a cliffbar bar thingy as a gift and this messed up my duties amount. As long as there is no clothes/helmet/gloves/shoes you're good to go at 15% Lekker shopping!

Thank you for all the replies I've been hearing some bad stories about the Ranger and this is making me rather want to play it safe and get the Dmax. And then there are others who praise the 2.2 Ranger with no issues just normal servicing. The bakkie will be kept for a long time, 10+ years so reliability is a major factor. If I do go Dmax is it worth going auto? Hilux is out as work only allows the petrol(budget cap) Im going to look at the Navara today aswell I've decided against the GWM as I dont know what to expect after the warranty period is finished

haha
