  1. Thanks Canfan. Much appreciated. Will keep your option open in case we don't come right this side.
  2. Thank. Will contact them.
  3. Asking for a friend (brother). will attach photos as soon as possible.
  4. Morning Looking for a hanger/drop out for a Fondriest F900 carbon frame? CWC used to bring in the frames but got no spares. Can anybody recommend someone to machine a hanger in Western Cape area? Still got the original hanger (bent) as a template. Much appreciated.
  5. Not so easy to get a permit anymore. All done online. They even want to know what you had for breakfast, They very strict now, because of all the foreign drivers that is illegal and uses old harbor access cards from other drivers. They starting the finger print access at the gates for normal "private" harbor users soon. Most of the trucks standing outside the port with containers on in Marine drive is trucks with drivers without access cards (or finger prints not matching the access card) and waiting for a "legal" driver to take the export container into port. I'm one of the lucky ones with a access card that is valid for 3 years. What a pleasure it is to cycle from Blouberg to Camps Bay side using the harbor.
  6. What happened to Copperhead?
  7. Will take photos of the bolts i got and take dimensions and pass the details on to you tonight.
  8. If it is the same as on the Epic 2013 then i will have one for you.
  9. Think you put the wrong photo up on "stolen Bikes". First picture is of a Schwinn - not a Scott?
  10. Hi. Not sure how to go about a RCYC permit? Best to contact RCYC or contact Arshaad Fester TNPA Port Security. Will PM you the details?
  11. Agree 100%. Disgusting.
  12. Believe me it took almost a year to sort out. Many phone calls, Whatsapps and emails. Think it was my post on Momsen Face Book page that made them decided to pay.
  13. Thanks. Very interesting.
  14. Maybe i was just lucky, but TWT / Momsen refunded me in full (purchased price) for a Momsen GP300. Had a problem with the hanger on the frame that could not be fixed. Replaced the hanger a few times with no luck.
  15. Go for the Panaracers. Brilliant tyres. The size depends on your clearance on frame and fork.
  16. Expo? You mean bazaar? Was an expo in the 90's.
  17. Transnet got a new system for getting a harbor entry permit. It is a pain in the r's. All online, needing unnecessary info. After 5 to 7 working days, if you get accepted, you have to go and stand in a queue for hours to get your photo taken. Good luck. Hope your RCYC membership makes it easier? We cycle through the harbor often and never had problems with the trucks. We got harbor access cards.
  18. #hairy will be the one to help you here. I commute to Paarden Eiland from Bloubergrant and luckily don't have to go from P/Eiland to CT (DANGER AREA).
  19. Just saw this post now. There was a motorbike (delivery bike) that hit a car with a trailer. I was commuting home and was first on the accident scene and my bicycle i put down in the middle of the inter section next to the motorbike lying on top of the bike rider while i was attending to him. Did not want to leave my bicycle on the cycle lane or pavement. Hope the motorbike rider recovered, because he was in a bad state.
  20. Space blanket works but a good R-Rated mattress is the answer. A good night sleep is a good day on the bike the next day.
