  1. A lot of really "shity Karen" know it all comments here. The kid obviously just wants to ride the b&b with his mate and get the entry covered, obviously not looking for a Spez factory ride alongside Matt and co boys... Bud, Try the charity route or a "ride for a cause" angle. I also suggest thinking smaller, direct communities.. friends, folks, uncles perhaps something like the church, vac work etc.
  2. Best gravel bike is a nice dual sus xc bike hands down. Buy the gravel bike if you only want to do road with light gravel. everything else i'd rater get the MTB
  3. Hate that road. Some drunk p@&$ always skipping that robot or simply ignoring any rules. Hope the cyclist is okay.
  4. Saw a dude on a brand new Yellow V4Rs with the full TP getup. I’m talking full Mett UAE replica, DMT KRSL shoes, skin suite.. it was a bit of a sight, I passed him and said “kom aan kanpione, kom aan” the oke wast amused. 😂 fq who buys a yellow Colnago! Back on point. The “cycling” segment locally has become super elitist especially on the road. The base of entry is so high and the industry mostly caters for a very small portion in general. Capitalism always wins friends and we as south africans in general is pretty flashy. Demand = Supply but when the price increases Demand is > then Supply. (Also FU Adam Smith)
  5. Anyone know where to stream? Super Sport isn’t showing
  6. Been stuck on the fast trak T5s. only downside is they wear quick and price. But i really rate the them overall.
  7. My 2c. I think bike fitting nowadays is a after thought. The guys up here would rather sell you a Sworks in a incorrect frame size then making sure the bike will work for you and your use case. My first Epic was WAY to big for me, I ended up selling it and sticking to road. Recently I bought a new bike one size down (from the shops baseline for my height) and I fell in love gain with mountain biking. The bike needs to work for you, no one person in the same.
  8. Sorry bro
  9. Mike Dewing, does the hub reward you for being a utter drol in the forms? Perhaps someone should introduce you to X, bet you’d get a kick out of it. &nbsp (Apologies if your comment was meant to not be sarcastic. Like i said wild wild west here..)
  10. Hypothetically (Humor me here); What about a community evaluated price or price range for listings as optional? The same with any offer on your add, It will need to be within a evaluated price range. This will instantly kill this behavior. Obviously you can either opt in or list the item at your own price. Any case, wild wild west here. Enjoy!
  11. Can we not regulate these lowballer crackhead resellers a tad? e.g. bikemart or Joburgbikes. I always re-sell my second hand stuff for far below the community average but these guys alway try and undercut your listing by 30 to 40%. Perhaps let's take away the listing price section and replace it with make me an offer.. Sarcasm intended but Geepers these okes are annoying.
  12. Typical. I rate its a money grab by the organizer, and why is there no full refund? Last year my active did the same thing with the capital classic and a few other races... Race Age Cat on 94 and CPT everything else, enter on the day.
  13. I've had a little business idea for a while now. Think a ICE band but with a scannable QR code. once scanned it takes you to all your emergency particulars. You can decide what to update and share. (lots of Qs here. PIP info stored, HIPA, POPI potentially GDPR.) The band ships with a App download to IOS\Driod. You can also expand the idea out to stickers with the same QR code and a emergency Signia. perhaps in Bold Red. stick it on your helmet, bike, or even print it on your shirt sleeve as a service. Out to the universe now but remember to buy me a new Sworks SL whatever when you make your first million...
  14. lol I always reply back to old James tuning him to catch a wake up
  15. My 2c. Stop advertising your 2016 Sworks Venge for 65k. Stop asking more then retail for imported Merlin Sram ASX shifters and stop crying over the poor fool making you a realistic offer on your bloated “USED” crap. i’m taking the piss big-time however my very crude honest opinion is, we over value second hand goods. Its created by this stupidly expensive industry in general. Over time i believe things will kinda get back to normal.
