  1. Can anyone help me with a contact number for someone at Garmin SA.
    I ordered a watch from them on the 12th of February and made an immediate payment the following day and sent the POP. To date I have not received my watch and have not even received acknowledgement that the order has been placed.

    Nobody responds to emails.

  2. Flip okes show some respect to van zweel. He has a massive engine... hide among anonymous names and calling him out isnt cool. Show support an Everest is ******* hard. The speed record attempt is interesting he needs a better hill for it. And thirdly his food choice just chill. He is different i raced against the oke he is a talent. Unmanageable but a good athlete... we all on the page to share the love of riding. Support him...

    I tend to agree with you on this one, sure we all have our own opinions on foul language, diet and lifestyle but I believe we are all here because this sport brings us together, a mutual interest if you will. Van Zweel sure does a lot of 'talking' via youtube but he is/was(not sure if he still is) a SA pro cyclist and he sure has the power to back up his talking. So why not support him?

    It takes a lot telling everybody beforehand what your goals are and run the risk of publicly humiliating yourself when you do not achieve them. I am actually glad he gives info about the ride and upload his half everesting efforts to strava so people can see what it takes riding at that level.

     

    I would love to see  a few of these keyboard warriors try and ride at that pace for 10 or 20 repetitions.

     

    So please keep the updates coming Paul.

  3. WTF

    Gravity on the downstroke make for free riding

    Longer cranks means more power, more free energy

    Seriously.......?

    Sorry this tjop is a lousy engineer 

    It is almost physically impossible that an engineer was involved with the making of that video, there is so much wrong with it, it should be banned from youtube.

  4. Unlikely to be spoke tension. The rim would collapse before the hub cracks.  Most probably a fault in the hub casting.

     

    have seen a similar failure with a tune hub where the hub split open for the freehub in the direction of the axle. hub was replaced by Tune.

    I also doubt it was from spoke tension , rather a material fault , Do you know to whom I can speak that represents Tune in South Africa? 

    thanks

  5. Good afternoon,

    Today was supposed to be the first time I get on my bike after more than 2 months off the bike.

    As I took my bike out of the garage to clean off the dust I noticed the rear wheel was buckled which seemed strange because I got the rear wheel built by a well known wheel builder not that long ago.

    On closer inspection I noticed the hub flange broke off. 

    What should I do?

  6. I bought a entry from a guy who has an index of 24.7 and was seeded in E my index is 18.6. So my question is will they move me up the to a faster group?

    What seeding index do the guys in B and C generally have?
