  1. Convinced. Pfffttt. It's like the new fangled one on the Trek Supercaliber. Sexy as all ****.
  2. Yeah, for me it would be a toss up between the Spark and the Top Fuel. I just like the clean look of the Spark's rear shock, and my alltime favorite road bike is my Foil, so I'm prejudiced towards Scott...
  3. The 2022 Spark 960.
  4. Ooh. Fancy. We usually sit on the pavement in front of the Dog Box Liquor Store in Bredell.

    947 Ride Joburg

    I think physically I'm good, judging by last week's efforts with Pritzen, but I don't think my head is in the game after no racing for all these months.

    947 Ride Joburg

    Yeah, I dodged a bullet by riding for charity. Have fun...
  7. I hate these single brand stores.
  8. They also make road bikes...
  9. One disadvantage of mechanical disc brakes is the weight. (It is heavy) The brake performance of mechanical disc brake is – it requires more force and also it is less efficient. And if it's traditional cable discs, it will be single piston, which results in uneven pad wear, and it slightly bends the rotor with each use, so setting them up is a nightmare.
  10. Don't buy a road bike with cable disk brakes.
  11. So, on another forum, there is a new thread about that taxi that dragged that cyclist for 100's of meters in Sandton recently. To give you an indication of the average motorists thoughts, here is a post from what you can assume is a rational, middle class motorist: We as cyclists are, pardon the expression, ****** as long as motorists can justify literally killing us. The same person clarified their attitude with: and It's completely shocking that motorists we have to share the road with can be this callous.
  12. Whats worse, is Matt didn't have the worst hairstyle in that interview. What was up with minki's hair?
  13. Er, nope. Pinion box FTW https://en.nicolai-bicycles.com/bike/ion-g16-gpi/
  14. How badly do you fall to toast a cassette?
  15. And you can apply it to the chain straight from the bottle...
  16. Wot on earth is "sheeving"? I mean I'd love to help the OP, but none of my bikes are sheeved. Ah, wait, Googly knows all. OP needs jockey wheels I think? Or some 26er rims? Rim break version?
  17. Ash was at the Tour Femmes route presentation and is quoted as saying she's looking forward to it, so I hope that means she's racing at least one more year.
  18. How about matching the flair on your handlebar moustache to the flair on your actual handlebar.
  19. Isuzu drivers are excepted. They obviously have some sense.
  20. Doug must just man up and sell a stake in the team to Premier Tech.
  21. And gone disc brake...
  22. A colleague was telling me yesterday he's not used to driving in so much traffic anymore after working from home for 18 months. I guess things like that also play a part?
  23. If I worked at a bike shop I'd put a "dry clean only" sticker on the seat tube of all new bikes sold.
