ASG these days are only out to take advantage of the cycling community instead of supporting the events. They have lost the plot!

Had a similar experience about a month ago. 2 roadies cycling up Riviera Road in the MIDDLE of the road, in peak hour traffic. They ignored the cars and caused major drama with the drivers. Really not cool. This type of attitudes that causes drivers to take it out on the rest of us.

Trans Baviaans MTB LSD Training Ride: 22-25kmph average, ONLY A riders. Saturday 7am@Engen Atterbury/Hans Strydom: Up Hans Strydom, around Airforce base, through Irene via train tracks.

Whats up with RaceTec these days? Emperors palace results was a mess, and now they havent even posted the results from yesterday.....

Have a look at my feed: https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/112120-titan-29er/ You dont have to buy as expensive parts. I really went all out. Titan by far the best value. Made by Merida....frame same as Big Nine

You get the frame in 17", 19" and 21". No weight restrictions. I build the bike with the following components: Titan 29er Carbon Team Frame (17") Full XT Groupset Stans ZTR Crest Rimms Schwable Racing Ralph Tyres EC70 Handlebar and Seatpost EA90 Stem Sielle Italie Seat FSA Headset Rockshock Reba RLT Fork All for R28500 Weight = 10.5kg

Frame is 1250g

I paid R7600 for the frame. Is actually made by Merida. Look exactly like the Merida Big Nine Frames...just half the price

Bought the new TITAN Carbon 29er Team frame. What an amazing bike! If anyone is interested, Contact Wimpie/Magnus at Cycle Fix in PTA EAST, 0128093609. Awesome service!!!

Tx for an epic ride!!!
