  1. So Pardilla and Gerdeman are leaving. Either a decent GC contender is going to signed (heard rumours of Gessink) or Qhubheka is going to forgo any GC ambitions and go for stages only. Heard that too. They have mentioned they looking for a signing from America and the UK. Apparently Steve Cummings(UK) from BMC but that hasn't been announced yet so speculation reigns
  2. I could end up like Green Edge at the Giro. Down to 5 and the others keep crashing!
  3. Sadly I did!
  4. My Team Alberto Contador Chris Froome Joaquim Rodrigues Andrew Talansky Mark Cavendish Marcel Kittell Arnaud Demare Arnold Jeannesson Jacob Fuglsang
  5. When I bought my carbon 29er, I kept my 26 inch Merida 96 and swore I would use a horses for courses approach as to which bike to ride! Well my Merida has not been ridden since! Love my Hardtail 29er!
  6. you would be a brave man to bet against Ariane Kleinhans
  7. Whats a new Dogma retail for?? I see there is a second hand one in classified section going for R100 000. Surely AA must realise that for R91 000 (R10k cheaper than 2nd hand) that something is off?? just saying!
  8. Remember guys, that the U23 jersey will only be worn in U23 events. Aside from the worlds,these are few and far between. Remember also that, rightly so, MTN will be keen to have the national champ jersey in their ranks so they wont give that right up to Orica without a fight. It is not as clear cut as it may seem. logic says Meintjies=U23 champ and Impey=elite champ but They raced over the same distance with the same opposition and perhaps the fastest man (for whatever reason) over that distance has claims to be the champ and wear the jersey.
  9. Any more feedback guys?
  10. Won't let me edit my last post sorry it is a Titan carbon 29elte not racehttp://www.titanracingbikes.com/carbon29relite.html .

  12. Hi all, Probably not a new question but want a bit of feedback if you have the time. I am finally getting to upgrade my old 26er to 29er. I am pretty competitive and am going the hardtail route. I am also a teacher so have limited budget. I have options on a new Bergamont revox 8.3. Spec in short is full X9 and I am getting them to upspec the hoops to ztr crest with x9 hubs. weight as it stands will be 11.4 subtract the exchange of wheels. Old set were Alex xd lite. Brakes are avid elixer5 and Tyre racing ralf tubeless ready which they will convert for me. Option 2 is either a titan carbon elite which is xt rear and deore front with a solo air shock compared to a Reba rl it is a 3x chain ring in front compared to a 2x I prefer the 2x but suppose that is minor. I can't seem to find a weight on the titan. price on the Bergamont will be 15700 compared to about 16500 on the titan. Advice please guys if you can . http://www.titanracingbikes.com/carbon29relite.html vs http://www.bergamont.de/en/bikes/archiv/2013/revox-83/
