    This is very tempting as I am in Cape Town that weekend.. My only concern is normally with 12 000 people collecting your race number is a massive process now that want to add testing to the mix

    Is the de Bod pic legit, can't seem to find it on twitter or instagram. Any idea what time difference the suit really makes ? Know its massive in swimming just curious if there is such a big difference in TT

    The Aftershokz Aeropex bone has great reviews just not sure how it will work for running, looking for a good all rounder as I also listen to podcast but for this I can always use standard headphones.

    Hey Guys Looking for a pair of new wireless headphones for running and cycling. I currently have Jaybird Vista which is great but doesn't work properly with my Garmin Forerunner 945. I usually use just one headphone so i can hear traffic but I think some of the new headphones have a feature where you can hear traffic. Any recommendations ?

    Hey Guys, has anyone tried the asics gel-cumulus 23 ? I have always run with the asics gel nimbus and inners but I see the cumulus is on sale at Sportsmans Warehouse and it appears to be the same shoe just slightly cheaper and a bit softer ?

    Flat pedals

    Zama7 replied to igg's topic in What bike to buy

    Looking for pedals like the link above that you can clip in both sides but has a larger flat portion so you can ride semi comfortably using a normal shoe like for a short commute. I have used these ryders below but not great for a race when mud gets in you shoe you can only cleat in one side which sucks. https://solomonscycles.co.za/products/ryder-mtb-dual-2-0/?dTribesID=1gpkaHc5hCxGz1dYzluHVQl3ywMDJrXp|adtribes|39899&utm_source=Google Shopping&utm_campaign=Google Merch &utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=39899

    Flat pedals

    Zama7 replied to igg's topic in What bike to buy

    Hey guys I am looking flat pedals but one's that can clip in both sides for a mountain bike. I know Shimano had trail pedals like this a couple of years ago but can't seem to find them... Reason is commuting to work once or twice a week (5km) and then riding on weekends where I need normal pedals. Thank s

    Cleats stuck

    Zama7 posted a topic in Technical Q&A

    Hey guys recently book some look x track pedals but the seem to get stuck on my specialized shoes and I can't cleat out. The sides seem very deep on the shoes... Has anyone else had this issue? Should I buy spacers so the spd cleat sticks out more?

    Shorts or Bib ?

    Zama7 replied to ChrisF's topic in New Gear

    Anyone in PTA looking for bibs ? Want to buy one of these but if you add more to the order it becomes cheaper https://www.cyclelab.com/product/ciovita-mens-black-supremo-bib-shorts

    Zama7 replied to Phatcat's topic in Events

    Hey guys probably left the training a bot late, with regards to tapering how long before the race should you avoid a long hard ride ? 1. Rest required for legs ? 2. Rest required for bum ? Thanks

    Thant sucks cycle there a lot and you generally feel safe in that area. Moved my cycling to wattbike and the occasional cycle in boomed off areas but you can't cycle solo these days

    Hey guys looking to do a 10k sub 40min in Aug / Sep (training to start in June). I see Garmin has some good progarmmes otherwise I might buy one of Ben Parkes websites. You guys have any recommendations ?

    Recently bought a rudy frame and had prescription lenses made. The lenses are relatively curved especially at the end so viewing is really strange. Optometrist said it will take a while to get use to this anyone else experienced something similar ?

    What happened to the coffee machine ?
  18. Zama7
    Probably March or April, not sure why they are delaying the inevitable. Still hope the race goes ahead with only pro's but doubt they have the financial muscle like the overseas races

    https://www.buycycle.co.za/apparel-en-2/clothing-and-footwear/shorts/dimension-data-2018-bibshort-mens/ Hey guys is there any difference between road bibs and mountain bike bibs ? Anyone tried these ?

    https://www.news24.com/ride24/skillsandtips/why-you-should-be-training-with-flat-pedals-20210115 Saw this and want to buy some flat pedals that can clip into one side of my mountain bike spd pedals.

    The rudy projects and I assume some of the others have pop in lenses so I assume they just pop out on heavy impact, From a safety perspective I am sure a car hitting you or falling on a downhill in mtb happens a lot more often
  23. Zama7
    I have the exact same problem especially in the mornings. Heard Rudy Project Radon's are the best and then get special prescription lenses from Spec Savers. Heading to ASG in Pretoria this weekend to check on pricing, also open to any other suggestions

    Hey guys, currently have massive connection issues with my Forerunner 945 and my Jaybird Vitsa earphones. Anyone else been having issues with the 945 as r=the headphones work perfectly on other devices ?
  25. Zama7
    Found these old ASA rules and they don't mention anything about qualification (I am referring to the 56km race) https://athletics.org.za/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/2019-ASA-Rules-Regulations-Changes-in-red-June-2018-Final-draft.pdf Just saw the entry limit for 21km + 56km is 29 000 people so I doubt the race will be open to the public maybe just a few pro's like some of the international races did earlier this year
