  1. Does anyone know which country in the world offers groupsets the cheapest?
  2. Agree 100% - be honest with what you are selling
  3. Lots of people build custom bikes out of China, the thread you referring to is dedicated to a discussion about suppliers, product etc
  4. Been going to china for years - Unfortunately counterfeit product out of china is so easily available and generally 'copied' very closely that so many people go for it. (as mentioned above, Zipps you can tell by the HUB, Camp by the spoke design - the vast majority of carbon wheels that come out of china have Novatec hubs) that's normally a quick sign. There are many factories that make for the international brands and then sell the exact same product unbranded, why don't people just go that route. Many times you can do your own design, make it unique. Sorry but i have no time for people showing off counterfeit product/and less time for people selling counterfiet product - either way they both should be locked up
  5. there from about the 14th Dec till the month end

  8. Mr Price has gone into Carbon rims
  9. Looking at the route profile, take a GU at +-28km and another at +-42km this should get you over the marginal climbs that are on the profile all else seems alright Time to rest up, give it horns in the morning Interested to hear how everyone did after the race We should organize hubber riding shirts - just a thought
  10. Perfect i would split off at the Walton/Whisken intersection - which days do you ride
  11. Does anyone commute from fourways to midrand?? looking for a commuter partner
  12. Legendary!
  13. Theres the roadies that leave from Engen on main every Tuesday to thursday morning starting at 4.50 Might be a bit fast though but nice route
  14. Not good to do it alone. PM Jigghead, i know he was planning to do the spruit early tomorrow morning but from the rivonia side
  15. What about VG - never ridden it before?

  17. Some details from todays ride - includes all the stops though.
  18. Nice ride! Good to meet everyone - that swim was well deserved Thank you Nancy for your hospitality
  19. a few people have advised me not to carry my carbon road bike on a bike carrier which supports the bike on the cross bar and rather get a carrier which supports it by the wheels. can anyone else advise, as the price difference is massive between the two different carrier options
  20. While on a road ride this morning along cedar road, as coming down the steep hill passed broadaches I saw two MTB riders cross cedar road and back into the bush. By the time I passed I couldn't see anyone and only assume they rode down onto the banks of the Klein Juskei. I didn't know there was a route there it looks incredably dense down there Was it any Hubbers, or dose someone know that route - would like to give it a go with someone familiar with the route
  21. +1 for ME!
  22. Sun is out, pool is warm summer has arrived - but O garden service hasn't!! Any one use a good garden service in the jukskei park/douglasdale area, mine just gave up and bailed says garden is to much work ????? Please help, if no help found I will have to pack my bikes away and use the weekends to garden
  23. Wish I could - doc said I need to rest!????
  24. Online says the tracks are only rideable from 6.30 Never ridden there before, which colour route you thinking of doing?
