I don't usually like tops with our flag on but this one is quite nice

Doing the 100km on sunday

It isnt the Cannondale that I longed for,but got a decent deal

Did my first one this year and asked myself, why did I wait all these years to do it. Great vibe, actually great everything. You will enjoy it Belgian Biker

Its the Handle Bar in Sea Point. http://thehandlebar.co.za/.

+1 great guy, great service, always very helpful.

Cannondale Supersix evo 5 105. R24k. 7.9kgs

I saw that ad too, clicked the link and saw it was a medium. Maybe the cannondale I want is destined to be mine haha

Thats the site I used at first. Then read some of Brad Pilons material and if you want some slapstick comedy on intermitten fasting then check out the videos of the Hodge twins, although most intermittent fasting protocols are more resistance training oriented. The only challenge I found was adjusting eating closer to race days or long rides, but I just ate high carbs all day the day before and problem was sorted. Then reverted back to eating between 12 and 8pm after long rides/races.

I met a guy with the GT carbon pro(the one below the one stated in this thread) a few months back. He had nothing bad to say about it, however I dont know how in depth his knowledge of frames etc go. I saw a medium frame one on the Obike.co.za website with ultegra Di2 groupset for around R26k.

I agree with all the Eat less comments. Google intermittent fasting. Been doing it for 6 months, lost 20+ kgs, no supplementation and eating whatever I want to. I eat Lunch and Supper, if i want to eat something in between I do. Dont waste money on products when your body is equipped to do it by itself. Use the money wisely, like spending it on your bike or kit or something of the sort.

If you dont come right finding a 2nd hand bike here then have a look at this. http://www.bridgecycles.co.za/CAAD8

Looks like it. So stupid to use the Cycle Factory logo too

Fear keeps one loyal, if they are afraid they have something to lose, they'll do what you tell them to Did the CS guys give you an original pinarello with the money they made selling the OP a fake?

Talk about some commuters. Two weeks ago I saw two guys cycling on the wrong side of the road, in between the fast lane and the centre Island of a dual carriage way.

If you are able to spend a bit more, then Im sure you can get a decent bike. If I had known prior to getting my first road bike and wanting something entry level or there about I would have gone for the Cannondale CAAD 8 Tiagra, then it was retailing for R12500, now at bridge cycles in Diep River its going for R9500. http://www.bridgecycles.co.za/CAAD8 I am a bit biased towards cannondale cos thats the brand of my next bike

Eina for CS if it is true that Pinarello International is suing them and Schnavels friends dad.

Eina

I will agree with this. Even though my shimano 2300 components have been good to me with the amount of riding I do, I am now looking to upgrade.

As far as I know the SCR comes with Shimano Claris groupset, 8 speed, Compact crank and 12-25 cassette. I have a bike with the same setup and when I started using it I was 107kgs. My personal experience was that it is sufficient for long climbs.

The anomaly that humans struggle with all the time LOL.

Ah, well I spotted a 2012 Supersix 5 105 going for R18k or in that region. Thats the will power or lack thereof.....2014 Supersix evo 5 105, 2014 Supersix evo 5 105, 2014 Supersix evo 5 105. Come on you can do it

I must admit, my neighbours KTM was super nice. Just had a look at the Revelator prime :drool:

Is there any major difference between the 2012 supersix 5 105 and 2014 supersix evo 5 105?

Just sent you a PM
