Miss him too. The new commentary DHI and XC lacking the past passion. The XC overhead drone shots are useless while the on track drone stuff is great. Why try to fix what's working really well?

I'm biased but wouldn't hesitate buying another Vincent, worth checking out: https://vincentbikes.co.za/

Correct. When a turbo is under boost it pushes a massive amount of heat through the exhaust, at idle you can hold your hand there no problem.

Been following these guys on IG looks like they do good work....need a quote for a touch up on a chip on a Supersix Evo Black

I interrupted his post/mid ride brekkie one morning at Bidon to ask for a selfie and he even insisted on standing up and his mate took the pic. I was struck by his humility and the fact that he's just a cyclist like all of us....I wonder how my request would have fared with one of the Spanish, French, Italian or S American primadonnas....

Couldn't agree more!

In one Be Lekker video on a climb, Daryl was huffing and puffing and Froomey was chilled...

Asked them about it a year or two ago ...apparently the expocosts are very high.... I shake my head at the big road races that charge you around 1k to enter, have a couple of big sponsors and still see the expos as a money machine....I'm so glad my racing days are behind me....

If you're going to let employees ride/drive your vehicle's expect them to be abused. The high staff turnover of the delivery industry would increase the abuse exponentially. On a daily basis I see delivery motorbikes riding where the front and rear wheels travel a different line.... Something that was discussed many years ago in trying to get SA onto bicycles was not only our complete lack of cycle lanes, but the terrain and our weather. I see taxis in Northriding (Joburg) using the paved pavement on the oncoming side of the road....imagine how they would abuse cycle lanes. I rode motorbikes as a teen in the late 70's and 80's and and will never mix it with 4 wheels on 2 wheels. PS the upkeep on an e-bike will be greater than on an ICE motorcycle. Said motorcycle will be patched up many times and will do in excess of 30-50,000km. E-bike ridden by employee? 🤣

Yip yip yip

The scam word still in OP. With Loadshedding phones and emails are less than perfect. It's a tiny part, don't trash an established reputation just because they didn't immediately reply. I know the guys at 3 of their stores well, they might not all be the most dynamic but they are one of my go to's.

Nope. Worked fine after replacing cable. Then started its ****. Luckily I had 2 wheels to try and rulled out cassette. Chain still in spec, therefore thought I'd give casing a try. This was on my road bike with Ultegra 10sp. On my MTB with Eagle GX I've learned to go to housing first if there's an issue as B screw etc Al set right over time....

I had a similar issue but harder to diagnose with a used chain and cassette Replaced the cable housing and solved the issue. I had priorly replaced the cable but not the housing. IMHO the housing wears way before the cable ...

We'll done. I'd like it a lot in a simple format ie where it's just the mount using o rings to fasten it the bar like this? Might add a lot of complication? Attached pics of Bryton mount I used to have ..

Should scam him back and get courier delivery address to share where he lives for all to see. That should instill a bit of fear.... And to add insult, send him a box of dog turds!

That's a really good policy!

As per OP: Rock damage therefore insurance or he pays, I can't see Trek replacing under warranty. They might however give an accident discount. Family member had their Top Fuel frame replaced under warranty after it broke so they do honour their warranty.

Looks like one of the circles? Too much partay last night.

I reckon the Brakistan schools rugby is just naturally fierce....I'd to be k@k scared to play against any of them...🙂

This is a serious discussion, stop horsing around! 😁

I recently bought a set of Zipp wheels (my second buy) from them and can attest to their great service and willingness to do a deal. Thank you Thomas, the wheels are better than the rider....

Ah ok, thanks for that. I'll have to try watch it on the app, that's a bit of a hassle.

I agree, use the net or phone around. I used to feel Cyclelab were expensive but they have become my go to for some odds and ends....

I don't see the Men's race on the Sunday DSTV schedule - did I miss something? Just lots of short track repeats...
