  1. What is the difference? They may as well just ride early on the Sunday then?
  2. If the aim is a marathon, I’d rather get my long run in...
  3. I would suggest that you don’t. PF can very easily become chronic. Hoe long have you had it? What started it? I’ve had PF on and off now for about 5 years, but mine started from stepping on an object barefoot
  4. Yes. No direct interference between BT and Ant+
  5. Also saw that now... still a bit steep.
  6. It depends on your BTLE version, and somewhat on the device. BTLE 4.1 can connect with 7 devices at once. Ant+ (USB2 or newer) can connect with 8 devices at once.
  7. This was for the Jhb course. Only included course, tea/coffee and lunch. No accomodation/etc.
  8. Not to derail the OPs discussion, but.. I see the CSA/UCI coaching course presented in 2018 cost R25500 for a 6 day course Are they crazy?!
  9. If the FTPs/target intensities are not correct I honestly cannot see the use of following the program or using a coach. You may as well just download a generic program off the net and adjust that. How long have you been with the new coach? Are you sure its your progran that he sent you?
  10. Look here: http://www.bbright.net/
  11. Stupid question from my side, but I’m not sure what you are trying to compare. BB30 road vs BB30 MTB, BB30 vs BB30A?
  12. The areas with filler has: carbon, filler, clear cote. It looks like your frame has black paintbin the area between the filler and clear. I would just sand progressively until you have a smooth transition from the carbon sections (if that makes sense). As long as you are mindful that there is filler (as you are), and din’t try and ‘find’ carbon, you will be fine.
  13. Metal/carbon/etc. reflects the RFiD signal, thats why they indicate not putting it on the fork. But a lot of riders do, with no ill effect. They have multiple scanners with multiple mats, so you’ll get signal bounce from multiple points, and should not have any issues.
  14. It will have no negative effect if placed on carbon. I’ve had mine on a carbon fork for ever, probably 100+ races, with no issues. The chip orientation could be important, depending on the RFiD antennae they use - if they use linear antennae the orientation must be as indicated to decrease missed scans. Racetec seems to use linear antennae, but have multiple mats, so they tend to have signals bouncing and picking up chips that are not optimally orientated. So if they indicate vertical, it would be better to have ot vertical
  15. It depends on the resin used, but it will likely degrade the resin.
  16. I like that frame, and think it will look nice when done. It seems there are some areas with fillers around the BB and head tube areas (where its painted black, and you can’t see the carbon pattern). Will you just repaint these areas?
  17. As posted by Lotus, most newer vehicles have HEPA filters
  18. I agree with this, jist be careful at areas where joints have fillers. The fillers tend to be much softer than the carbon
  19. CATs/DPFs are not compulsory on diesel vehicles in ZA. We only comply to Euro2 emission standards. Our diesel tends not to comply with the required standards to run ‘cleaner’ diesel engines, so the models sold here often just run ’normal’ exhaust systems
  20. Unless you are using a powered sander, using a fine grit sandpaper, I cannot see how one can go through several ‘layers’ of carbon without realising it
  21. Just keep in mind that most frames, especially the older designs have loads of fillers. Typically around the joints at the BB, Headset, etc. You won’t be able to get a full exposed carbon look. As you sand away the paint in these areas you’ll end up at the black fillers. You could have the centre sections of each tube exposed carbon, abd then repaint the joints. Don’t worry too much about going into the carbon, you will see and feel the difference. Also note that the older resins used are not UV stable, and if not protected by a UV protective layer will degrade and yellow over time with loads of sun exposure. There are many waxed that are UV protective, so not a big deal.
  22. Why not? If you said hamstrings, I would perhaps agree
  23. They always seen to do these interviews on the most inappropriate times. Even watching sport has now changed to a political show
