  1. If it was available on their website, then I would do just that! (frantically searching)
  2. I have not done the Munga (or anything near that), but find small/med bar bag with a zip to be very useful for stashing stuff. That might not be big enough for you, but perhaps something else on this website will jump out at you: https://gravelandtour.co.za/product/munga-handlebar-bag-by-quivertree-large-medium-available-on-pre-orders-now/ https://gravelandtour.co.za/product/mango-time-handlebar-bag/ https://gravelandtour.co.za/product/quivertree-handlebar-bag-ideal-for-munga/ https://gravelandtour.co.za/product/restrap-canister-bag/
  3. Will you be getting XS (Grey) in the Carbon Comp ?
  4. Season 3 of War of the Worlds just emerged Quite a nice surprise as I wasn't expecting it at all!
  5. I haven't ridden Hope hubs in ages and I thought that my GG needed some. They will be paired with DT Swiss GR 531 rims. I haven't decided on spokes and who will be the lucky wheel builder yet.
  6. Awesome. Thanks! Will look out for it
  7. Well done
  8. I hope that nobody is feeling sorry for him any more.
  9. It would be interesting to see if these will become available in SA, at what price and who would distribute and support them. Ordering directly from Zwift may not be such a good idea from a backup point of view.
  10. This looks interesting: $500.00 trainer from Zwift https://cyclingtips.com/2022/09/zwift-launches-499-zwift-hub-direct-drive-trainer/
  11. Trek does too. But Giant says: " The most accurate way to determine any bike’s weight is to have your local dealer weigh it for you. Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can vary based on size, finish, hardware and accessories. "
  12. Bwa ha ha ha ha That's hilarious!
  13. Very few bike brands are willing to post the weight of their bikes. Probably because there are so many variables, What happens when the actual bike in the shop is heavier (because they added sealant or something )? Do you have a go at the brand for false advertising ?
  14. Reading the Original Post: The question seems to be more related to riding on that particular road at that time, rather than the colour of their attire. There is no doubt that bright lights will help with visibility (day and night), but drivers actually paying attention is the biggest thing to deal with in this scenario. My wife and I have both been knocked off our bikes (while riding alone, during the day with flashing lights inside the yellow line and not jumping stop streets or red lights) by drivers who 'just didn't see us' ! The UK went through a bit phase of victim blaming in social media. It seemed that the cyclist who was knocked over was at fault for not wearing a Hi-Viz vest. i.e. no responsibility on the driver to pay attention. Hence Tim Brink's response on the previous page.
  15. Someone who knows about ebikes will probably ask you for a pic and specs of your current bike's motor and battery. In my limited experience with Aliexpress, you get what you pay for...
  16. Haven't moved much further than 'hope' ... Perhaps if we hold our thumbs and cross our fingers, this will get closer to resolution. Whether its a full refund or a case opened at the cop shop.
  17. There is some awesome cycling to be done in that area Quite jealous!
  18. Apart from wearing a hi-viz vest, I wonder what colour jersey would be most effective in the dark ? (assuming that most of us wear black shorts and have effective front and rear lights)
  19. That was a great event! I thought that it was very well organized and I thoroughly enjoyed the day. And most of all, I am very grateful that it didn't rain. There are parts of that course that would been terrible on the GG.
  20. It will be so awesome Enjoy it!
  21. It would be interesting to see how the Trek EXe 9.5 compares at the same price. I know that it has a smaller motor and battery, but is a carbon frame and would be much lighter. https://www.trekbikes.com/za/en_ZA/bikes/mountain-bikes/electric-mountain-bikes/fuel-exe/fuel-exe-9-5/p/36374/?colorCode=black
  22. At this late stage of the game, there should be something more solid than 'Hope' from your side.
  23. Very cosmopolitan
  24. 'Tis a thing of beauty! But, are those Time pedals? On a Look frame?
  25. There is one on the website now
