In the shape that you are currently in you an easily ride in the Elite bunch and no need to worry about the wind

I think it was about 2 weeks Looking at the Order on AliExpress now, the order was placed on the 13th and seems that it was closed on the 25th.

The last time I bought from AliExpress was a helmet which was around R550 and the custom / delivery fees were R187.00 I think that if it had come via the post office they would have charged me VAT (R82.50) and a handing fee (R73.00) which would be approximately R156 A bit more but it got delivered to me and it was a much better and quicker experience than dealing with the PO.

AliExpress have moved away from the Post Office. My 2 or 3 previous orders from AliE have been delivered vis a courier to my door. The catch is that there's a fee to pay

My previous order was delivered by CN Express but when they came to deliver it was the same guy from Fastway. I've never had an issue with an order from Temu, they've always arrived and normally before the delivery day.

I just buy the cheapest ones, normally around R170 and I've done many miles in them, even managed a 2:47 at Ride Joburg this year 😉

I got a set from Temu recently for like R20.

Oh gosh, they've really become useless then. Let's hope it's way sooner.

They used to be really good, would receive a quote within a few hours of dropping off the unit/s. Now they on a permanent go slow. They do eventually send the quote. Just have to be patient I suppose.

They must really like you if you only waiting 2-4 business days. I dropped off 2 faulty Garmins on the 18th Nov and I'm still waiting for quotes (almost 2 weeks)

Anyone know how what's Garmin's turn around time for a quote these days ?

Maybe you really fit and your HR is lower than you expect ? Are you able to test with a different HR monitor ?

But they know how FAST you are !!!

But they know how FAST you are !!!

Anybody done a Garmin replacement recently ? It was about R2500 to get replacement model, is it still the same price ?
