  1. Jeepers. Those potholes in Joburg are hectic! You'd think Sanral would've had enough cash from etolls to keep the roads in shape.
  2. What an adventure! Many thanks for sharing it.
  3. Thanks for the link. Nice to read the behind the scenes stuff. [emoji106]
  4. You need to be more observant.
  5. Lekker!
  6. ... and we can continue to affectionately call it the Argus?[emoji6]
  7. Thanks for the video. Nice to see.
  8. Only another 4 years! It'll take me 20 years to get there..
  9. Edit: I am thinking of the other thread... ignore
  10. Something to add to the debate, or not? http://www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2014-09-02-groundup-after-daryl-impeys-exoneration-truth-could-be-the-ultimate-victim/
  11. Interesting!
  12. Oops. Double post.
  13. Great picture!
  14. Parking lot rage
  15. The flickpay website says pay with your phone at vida e caffè and get your first cappuccino free, so presumably I don't need to go to Hout Bay or have my bicycle with me... that's if I install the app...
  16. Ok, thanks. It's good to have a ballpark figure before advertising for R2000 and finding no takers.
  17. I've seen new prices between R550 and R2500! Hence my confusion (and possibly some bike shop's confusion).
  18. I was going to post in the buyers guide, but I'm actually trying to find a value for something I want to sell. This might also be the wrong place, but maybe I can turn it into a rant. I have a Fizik Tundra 2 saddle with manganese rails but I can't find a price/value for it anywhere. Possibly it's a model which has been superseded. Has anyone bought one or have an idea of a price? It was bought with a bike at the beginning of the year.
  19. Jeepers! Just around the corner from me. This is completely out of hand.
  20. By the way, lubed the piston and all sorted. B) Edit: I'd advise to try not get oil on the pads or rotor as it makes stopping more challenging.
  21. Thanks for that. I'll have a closer look. My last ride was pretty muddy although the problem surfaced quite a bit later. Perhaps my cleaning left something to be desired.
  22. They were serviced relatively recently. But I got the bike 2nd hand so I don't know the age of the set. Sticky piston sounds about right. I'll try have a closer look at that.
  23. Wrt Capricorn's post, I haven't moved the lever forward, although the click might be similar and it does affect the braking as I don't have a smooth increase as I pull the lever.
  24. Let's try with more info! The rear brake in question is a Shimano BR-M575. When pulling the lever, there's no resistance until 2/3 through the pull. Then it makes a squeaky click from the back and starts to grip. Make any sense?
  25. They're hydraulic disc brakes. It's hard to describe exactly what's happening.
