  1. My dad's completing number 30 this year. I'm starting with him in 2B & sure he would happily get in on this deal if you drop back or we end up catching you by Edinburgh
  2. Has anyone received a seeding email yet?
  3. Thanks for the reply, this helps a lot
  4. Yeah...
  5. So i've noticed my free hub isn't spinning as freely as it should, I took it apart this weekend, removing the bearings and cleaning everything and noticed there is some sort of pitting inside the "chamber" (don't know the correct terminology) that the bearings are running in/against. I've lubed everything up and put everything back in to just check if it made any difference. It did spin a bit better but not 100%, I then also noticed that when spinning my back wheel, it would spin freely but occasionally engage and move the peddals forward a little. So for the people out there in the know, I want to send my wheel in for a service, is this just going to be a single service or a whole new hub and wheel rebuild? What am I looking at price wise?
  6. I love my S7's! that being said, I had a hot dismount on the trail last weekend, first thing I checked, that my pants weren't destroyed, They were completely unscaved, my skin, not so much
  7. Just have to decide whether you want to go cheap or the great service route, if its the latter, look somewhere else
  8. Thanks will have a look
  9. I don't think i'd want to go more than R1200
  10. Not too keen on Mr price, was thinking more along the lines of first ascent, cape storm, indola or similar. I heard anatomics don't last so think i'll give them a skip
  11. I have my "I love my bum" bibs for the weekend and big rides but want to buy something cheaper for daily use. Considering a cheap pair of bibs or mtb baggies, and pro's that the one has over the other for this type of use?
  12. Do you do this? Great for keeping track of total distance covered in the year but surely it peves everyone off with the same route on strava twice a day
  13. Until the gun goes off and the hype kicks in
  14. If Strava says so it has to be true
  15. Is it just me or when you do a rough elevation gain estimate on the 60km route you get nowhere near the 1900m they say? more in the regein of 1500 at the most
  16. Thanks for this, I thought the race was on Sunday
  17. I'm nowhere near as snakey as i'd like to be, still quper keen for a tough ride
  18. Snap
  19. Does anyone know where I can buy a good quality plain black cycling jersey in cape town? Don't want any branding or logos, just a solid black
  20. Weekend buy
  21. Thanks guys for the feedback. Just a question, the import tax, when exactly does that get charged to you if the item is being delivered to your door?
