  1. You know you wouldn't though, you know you are riding pedigree everytime you take it out for a spin.
  2. all of the above skeleton man, and for many years going back in time, with re-occurring success ... dont get me wrong, im all for local is lekker, but we've had ZA born entrepreneurs starting brands for bikes made in Taiwan before ...
  3. Look at the brand of bike crossing the finish line in 1st place across the globe, then decide what is no.1, not some popularity contest based on the alternatives to the best ...
  4. Only a matter of time before race organizers allow virtual entries, in which case there would be no actual interaction for hair pulling. Virtual simulation reality additions for South Africa will include thieves for knife point bike jackings, and ignorant vehicle drivers for road events. Should you encounter either, your ride is abruptly ended :-(
  5. You seem to be the exception. I live on table mountain, i go straight from my garage onto the trail with no tar between, convenience. I could not imagine, even when raining in the middle of winter, choosing a IDT over a morning ride up TM. I feel sorry for people who rely on bike carriers to enjoy the sport, perhaps the same for you leading to your comment?
  6. The Tacx Bushido costs R11,450, a much cheaper entry to virtual training. I dont have experience with either, but somehow the static cassette on the Kickr looks like a blocker for those that want to interchange bikes, where on the tacx you keep your rear wheel on. What is also arguable is how real the power delivery is on the Kickr having removed the rotating mass of the rim and tire etc probably compensated on the devices algorithm but never true to the wheel you actually ride with. I would prefer to train on my exact setup. The RFLKT+ is an iphone battery killer, as it still relies on the phone to be the brain for the collation of data, be careful when using on long rides.
