  1. this was great to see and a memory I will treasure...Sport is amazing!
  2. Apparently the Specialized 38c Triggers are the bomb!
  3. ....I ordered my Cross/gravel bike earlier in the week from BikeMob - Basso bikes to be imported from Italy. Super excited - will post when received. *new models only launch next week friday so will be shipped after that.
  4. Thank you - ordering tonight so will keep you all posted.
  5. Thank you - were you able to sort out all above mentioned delays etc via email/phone?
  6. Thank you - and the process of sorting out the clearance issue > were you able to sort that out via email/phone?
  7. Anyone else have some feedback on delivery time between Germany and SA? ( CPT or JHB)
  8. This is great news - so a week or two at most for delivery time! sounds good.
  9. Jurie, Sorry if this was asked before but how long did you wait for the bike from the day you ordered? Beautiful bike! Enjoy!
  10. lol thank you for this.... if anyone can advise - please advise! Looking at this bikes costing - +- 3000USD even with 15%on15% the bike is still cheaper than some gravel options in SA. Bike look sexy as hell-aswell
  11. Congrats on the new bike ! I am looking to purchase the :https://www.canyon.com/en-za/road/inflite/inflite-cf-slx-9-0.html cross bike as there is a serious lack of gravel/cross options in SA. If I may ask how long did it take to receive the bike - from the minute you ordered to you receiving it in SA? Also when discussing the VAT/import duties , did you do so telephonically/email or did you have to go somewhere? Enjoy the new bike!
  12. Any chance of an ALL WHITE product to be launched soon? you know - us roadies like the all white on white sock look ;-)
  13. Thank you! Heal up soon! I believe you went down!
  14. My 2cents , - Great race - Great turnout - Great course - Great Venue BUT This was my first CAT1 race , towards the end of the 1st lap we were averaging 43 km/h. We made a left turn as the pace was super fast we were all forced into the gutter ........on the righthand side of the road , in upcoming traffic..... I was waiting for the comm to take control of the race which didnt happen. I pulled off to the left hand side of the road ( left of the white line) to start a new echelon and was joined by maybe 3 riders. Which ment race over as we were out or the slipstream of the main race. As I fell back I asked the follow vehicle how riding on the righthand side of the road with upcoming traffic can be allowed and got a mere shrug of the shoulders. PPA races have comm motorcycles giving us warnings when racing over the white line. Today we went way beyond and nothing was done. Hopefully this can be addressed as safety should come first.
  15. I can truly say I have seen a massive difference. as I work a 7 - 5 pm , my time is limited. With specific interval work I managed to get my racing seeding up to a B (ppa) and CAT 1 - WPCA after not riding for 9 years. One of the biggest positives I experienced was the ability to track when I need more rest and when not. Also a simple difference was in the interval itself : Lets say I have to ride 2 minutes at 80% HR - you can clearly see how my power drops during the interval, where now I keep the watts constant - now I can clearly see my HR increasing even further. I enjoy the science and tracking ability of power training. It is however only another tool. Time in the saddle trumps all.
  16. I hate to break it to you but ..............................................WIND
  17. Had the same struggle now - go to 'more reply options' save your pic on your desktop and then you can browse to include pic
