  1. So you stay just above White's road ? I would be quite happy to cycle that road up and down for a month ! Enjoy .
  2. Has anyone checked if there is a speed limit applicable ?
  3. You can google new prices . You replace the rear quick release skewer or through axle on your bike and replace it with a replacement one that comes with the trailer . Very simple and effective . I have 2 trailers may sell one of them .
  4. Yes there is a very good chance that they will work . Accepting that you have sealed of the spokes?
  5. Irreplaceable . Sorry
  6. My guess is that computer is Cateye and the handlebar is Ambrisio . Not from what I can see on the photo but that is what we used then.
  7. Mens sou dink dat met die lockdown gaan dit nie meer gebeur nie , mense is tuis en die diewe mag nie rondloop nie .
  8. Sounds like the cable is now too tight. Go back clockwise one click at a time.
  9. Whatever your target market you will have to make sure that market has money to spend Reminds me that when we were youngsters me and friends were discussing ways of getting rich . We decided that the solution was to make/sell something for 50c that every township dweller wants . We never cracked it sadly .
  10. First time I see a "Righty" fork
  11. Colnago Master Olympic steel frame Colnago Carbon fork 10 speed Campagnola Super Record groupset , Campagnola Bora wheels , frame in Mapei colours 2 nd hand will do thanks
  12. Life is not that bad
  13. Which is the culprit , tire or rim ? I have found that the quality of the tire makes a huge huge difference in seating a new tubeless tire.
  14. It came with the yellow and green installed that is for 75-80 kg riders . I am 83 so just left it as is and currently don't see a need to change .
  15. I see they make a suspension seatpost as well ...
  16. Disclaimer : I have no financial interest in this product . When our dirt roads in Prince Albert are in a good condition , riding a gravel bike is like the best of 2 worlds ; it is like riding a road bike and riding on a dirt road . But these roads do get corrugated and then a rigid fork does become a bit uncomfortable after a while on 40 or 43 tyres . I do have a Lauff fork on the shelf but felt it spoiled the look of my Lynskey GR270 . So I read about the Redshift suspension stem and all the write ups were good but I was still hesitant in making a 2.5K experiment . In the early nineties before front shocks became the standard on mountain bikes there was something I think it was called a Girvin suspension stem but that was horrible. So I took the plunge , ordered , paid and quick delivery from Gravel and Tour , Jhb. Fitted that last night and did a quick test ride this morning . And what a pleasure ; it takes all the sharpness out of corrugations without feeling that the handlebar drops , because that is what it does with the elastomers . Just a much much more pleasant ride. Love my Lynskey even more thanks to Redshift .
  17. Try Abrahamskraal 38 km outside of Prince Albert
  18. Postponed to later to be confirmed date
  19. Thanks great balanced article
  20. I am riding . Wide open spaces and riding on my own most the time .
  21. John has other ( Corona ) worries at the moment . There was damage to the Pass but it is rideable and the damage will be repaired . The storm was Thursday night , I cycled it Friday morning .
