  1. New baby has arrived
  2. The King of rock and roll on the wrist today.
  3. What business, Rapide or the guy that’s moved to Scotland with his elongated debates ?
  4. He no longer builds wheels. Doctor George, laced and built my first wheel with him in 1988.
  5. Jozi still has some pretty good wheelbuilders within its surroundings.
  6. The man didn’t believe in this tool. Made for much entertainment and serious cost implications to hubbers and none hubbers alike.
  7. I still live them weekly, when I get a Yellow Saddle sticker’d piece of work to fix.
  8. The worlds greatest wheelbuilder who hasn’t managed to build one single decent enduring wheelset.
  9. I know a guy.
  10. The Monaco wears quite big.
  11. A little bit of blue waffle with the Tissot PRX yesterday.
  12. Could also be a severe case of arthritis. Very possible for people who identify as a 90 year old man.
  13. It’s an expensive exercise wanting to be relevant.
  14. Try Craft Cycles in Sunninghill.
  15. Tudor P01 today.
  16. Brake hose must be 0.0005 mm long if the system only has 6 ml if fluid in.
  17. Spaceview with this 55 years old girl today.
  18. 😂😂😂 It’s hardly like soccer or Formula 1 And often the supposed “best bike” of any said year runs 3 rd or 4th an entire season.
  19. I was keen to comment along the same lines. But in fear of a LeHub lambasting, it’s all about the bike (to keep the peace)
  20. Yes But they hung on to it for dear life. Marketing was always their main priority and they will easily patent a proprietary name for the sake of it. Brilliant brand from a man who put his heart, sole and bones on the line to build his company. But sometimes they are asleep at the wheel, whilst other brands take a corner quicker and smoother. I was very fortunate to sit with Dr. Andy Pruitt at the Morgan Hill offices for just over a week. He was working us through body geometry and all the science behind it. Much of that was pure genius with the interest of the rider (end user) as first priority. I remember sitting at breakfast and Mike Sinyard was sitting at our table in Salt Lake. They had the TDF on the big screen, it was an absolute pleasure watching the man leap from his seat with overwhelming excitement, as one of the teams were all kitted with Specialized Helmets. I personally feel that some of that Sinyard passion and magic is no longer part of the brand. But enough of that, a lot of hot air to say absolutely nothing other than, hard tails will be here to stay for a very, very long time.
  21. Yup Not gonna happen. I think some of these bike companies are losing the plot, thinking a WC podium bike is the bike the everyday man wants, but they forget what the everyday man is willing to spend. Specialized are always late to the party, I mean how long were they trying to ride the Horst-Link wave 🤷🏻
  22. My Scalpel rode like a pogo stick. The tension load in those chain-stays was insanely stupid. My KHS soft tail and Airborne soft tail rode better.
  23. My apologies. It was actually an RS4 The van he sold years ago to save his company, but has since bought another one, which stands in the exhibition foyer of the head office in Morgan Hill. The Porsche he used to like running around in from his German offices o the other hand, was one awesome piece of machinery.
