  1. Been riding with a pair of Rudy Project clear photochromic since 2008. One of my best cycling kit investments ever made. Does not matter if you start in the dark hours of the morning for a whole day of riding or doing the 24 race through the day and night. . . . you just need this one pair of cycling shades. Never fiddle with swapping lenses or taking them of and stuff them in a pocket somewhere because they are to dark or to clear.
  2. No - - Bungee cord perish in the sun, lose it's elasticity after a while, and the wire hooks F-k-up your bikes paint. . . it is crappy for this purpose. This Imbi Bike Saver is much better than Bungee cord. The product I was referring to (which name I could not remember) is Flexi Ties. Distributed by Lumeno LED in 4x4-shops. Strong, reusable, does not scratch and lasts fever. http://lumenoled.co.za/images/accessories/flexi_ties.jpg
  3. My two favourite things. Bikes and old Land Cruisers. (Particularly the 60-Series Land Cruisers.) I am lucky enough to have both in my garage.
  4. pool noodle, plus the "green stretchy Teflon reusable cable tie things" and you are set. "green stretchy Teflon reusable cable tie things" They are cheap and 10 or so in a packet. Buy them at 4x4 shops. They are rubbery and will not scratch the paint. (Sorry, for the live of me, I can not google-find the name or picture of it)
  5. Courtesy of Mr. CRC and DHL. Hope it all the "Brooks rage" because it looks like the saddle of Doom.
  6. Since age of 12. But the he has the 2017 Colnago with the new self-ride tech. Keep perfect position in the peleton based on the leaders jersey position. With ZIPP 454 N SW wheels.
  7. Don't think they care if it is new or secondhand. Import duty will be the same I suspect. Best plan so to break it up into frame and some parts and wheel and some parts. Bring it in like that. The courier cost of the extra box will probably be less than the extra duties on the bike if imported in a complete state. That is what I would do. My 2-cent.
  8. Yes . . . We're anxiously waiting . . . . Let's see it.
  9. Hi. I'm looking for a 29er Rigid fork. Any will be considered but the preferred specs is as follows: Steel or carbon.Tapered steering tube.Axle-to-crown on the longer side 480mm to 490mmThru-axleLooked at some of the SA online shops and sent emails to some others but no joy. Any suggestions?
  10. It looks better every time I see a pic of that SIR9. Super cool SS !!
  11. Is it the angle of the photo, or is the front wheel smaller than the back wheel?
  12. Man . . . that is so beautiful . . (I hate you)
  13. I think they should make is much, much, much, harder. So freaking tough that: 1.) those who says it's not tough enough and 2.) those who says it is the toughest can both be happy.
  14. Any Pangas, metal pipes, knives?
  15. Cinelli Bivalent Hubs http://www.classicrendezvous.com/images/Italian/Cinelli/Cin_Bival_95_B-Guide_art.gif http://cycletechreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Cinelli-hub.jpg http://cdn.ipernity.com/127/35/03/30553503.98e00399.640.jpg?r2

  17. Thought I had mine potty trained last week . . . . This morning the wife phones and says he went and crapped in the garden. . .
  18. I did not even see any Swift, Pyga or Yeti in the pics . . . The Cotic frames is all it need to be a very cool shop.

  22. No Man!! Boasting, to us mortals, with a ride like that, is just downright evil of you!!
  23. Got a bit carried away while shopping. So I really Hope that these will look even better once on the bike.
  24. With Zuma doing his best to shaft the Rand . . . . . This arrived to give me some Hope. . . .
  25. I had two BIG CRC orders ready. Was keeping an eagle eye on the Pound/ZAR for the last month. So glad I decided to pull the trigger last week. Just missed this newest ZUMA f-up. Will be having my goodies by Friday.
