  1. I experienced a slightly different problem today. 2 mins into my ride I noticed I wasn't seeing any speed/altitude etc metrics. I stopped & thinking it needed to acquire the satellite, switched it off but it wouldn't switch back in. I tried a hard reboot, pressing all 3 buttons, it flashed on but immediately turned off. Thinking it was a flat battery I tried charging it at home to no joy. The aforementioned 10 sex power button press started it but there were no updates required and the support guy at Wahoo said it's likely to happen again and they'll probably cover it under warranty. Has anyone else experienced the same issue? What i the Wahoo warranty service like? I have the V1 Element Roam which is no longer available......... Cheers
  2. Check with Aero Agencies, they are a great alternative bearing supplier.
  3. RIP fellow cyclist Condolences to your loved ones ❤️
  4. Thanks again, chatted to Jacques, one had to send via sea freight, customer arranged his own. 👍
  5. 🤣🤣🤣
  6. I'll give them a call tomorrow or hes going to donate to LBS in Tuscany....used for 2 month's
  7. In the past someone said they play along then tell the Uber driver to pi$$ off, thus the scammer incurs a cost
  8. Hi I recall a thread but can't find it .. . Is there a difinitive solution to transport an e-bike battery from Italy back to SA at a non-prohibitive cost? Family leaving Italy in 4 days time....
  9. Add an ex-wife and you have the perfect storm!
  10. Thank you. Just had to visit family, will have a look tomorrow
  11. Thanks, Im busy checking that out - I clicked Link With Strava bug it'd giving me the option to select either Wahoo or Garmin, wouldn't I need to link both as I upload from both to the same Strava account?
  12. Thanks, maybe, but I haven't noticed it, I'll have a look. What I'm trying now ( in case Wahoo automatically pills through to my Strava apps when I authorise), is to delete the app from my phone and re-authorise either via the chrome version or redownload the Strava apps but log in via my second profile. It would be so simple if I had one bike and one head unit....😊
  13. Maybe I'm trying to get too complicated but here's my issue, hope someone has an easier way than a factory reset..... I have a Wahoo GPS on my mtb and Edge 530 on my roadbike Soooo selecting a bike is seemingly not going to work? My plan is to keep one bike on my Strava apps on my phone and the other logging in via Chrome, saved as a "favourite" thereby getting 2 Strava apps. My issue is that my Wahoo Element Roam won't allow me to change the Strava acc, only unauthorised or re-authorise. Is the only solution a factory reset of my Wahoo head unit? Apologies if I'm over implicating.....
  14. Thank you very much for all the suggestions, lots of food for thought....💪💪

  16. Hi there As I've started on the chain waxing journey (very happy too) I'm keen to track my mileage especially on my roadbike as conditions are very consistent. On older computers we had an easy to access odometer but not so on my Edge 530 or my Wahoo Element Roam. Am I missing an easier way? Is there a 3rd party app out there? Maybe useful for MTB would be to track hours? Now if I could just write more than one line of Python.... Cheers
  17. Excellent description, know the spot well. Very tragic.
  18. As long as it's just the clear coat or not structural you can sort the bars. A few years ago I got taken out by a car and he ended up parked across my toes (I kid you not), effectively breaking my carbon sole. I got hold of some carbon resin, cloth and peelply, did the repair and refinished both and my shoes were better than new.
  19. The merging of the 2 incidents is what I was initially thinking. Just a sad, sad thing.....
  20. Wow, that's tragic. Same as the week before, although the bikes may have been speeding, both avoidable. What I've seen often from the beginners that come out of the woodwork every year before 947 is riders just u turning from the cycle lane but shouldn't have happened.
  21. I heard that u-turn theory but about a motorcyclist vs a cyclist accident on the Caves road the week before. I'm not so sure this happened in the Kerry Grundlingh accident.
  22. As per previous posts: It's called "stuck down". If you're in Joburg get the best suspension service from Jakes at Shockingly Good Bicycle Service: 0714398832
  23. When a pro bombs it down an Alp at over 100kmhr, it's not the chainring size that makes a difference.
  24. I'm with the above comments, when I lock my suspension and get to feeling what a HT would be like makes me glad I've got suspension. The philosophy that HT teaches you to ride better is like saying driving without a windscreen teaches you how to drive with barely open eyes...I'm married to my dual suss for life! 😀
