JA NEE. race organisers often plead we don't litter because of the privilige of using certain roads/routes . it seems that the moral value of not littering in general has declined to the point that it goes by as the norm. taxis in our area of kzn make pit stops at rivers and just dump their LOADS of kfc in the river. throw freakin rubbish every where and look at sabc camres sheepishly saying "oh look at the conditions we have to live in , our kids play in rubbish and we don't have clean water" I SAY NAME EM. that might get the particular parties to commit to cleanliness

not really into stars and stripes... but those white wheels of cadel NOW that is NICE

wondering if this topic is still relevant? i have rocked on my WARP 9 this past SEASON. it is very fast. amazing quality for money. have just stripped it and got such a fright as to how light the frame and fork is!!!! i might just put it all back together and keep it... been thinking of buying carbon but this baby has served me well keeping up with okes like Donovan van Gelder and Anton Storm... if you have the legs it WILL come to play and not dissapoint

JA- don't watch this wearing critical Rugby loving south african glasses. just a must see historic movie. the out of shape rugby players bothered me till i remembered this was before the profesional era. i felt better walking out this movie than 2012

OK SO I NEED SOME WHEEL OPINIONS NOT COSMETIC ONES. WOULD LIKE TO KNOW OF EXPERIENCES WITH THE BELOW WHEELSETS THE SPINERGY LOOKS NICE HAS FUNKY SPOKES BUT TO BE HONEST NOT REALLY A "LIGHT WHEELSET" WHY BOTHER CONSIDERING THESE?
