  1. Struggling with the same decision. There's a 2x11 Grx setup which may tick the boxes.
  2. Got my order about an hour ago. XT pedals fitted to the new gravel bike, along with some bottle cages. Will break them in along with my new Assos shorts, over the weekend sometime.
  3. Lucky. I seriously dislike Dawn Wing as I've had way too many bad experiences with them. My package is still in Cape Town, it seems. Ah well, it can wait.
  4. Then it hasn't shipped yet.
  5. PARCEL ARRIVED AT DAWN WING CPT 2020-05-20 18:16 MASS DIMENSION VERIFICATION CPT 2020-05-20 18:29 SHIPMENT SHIPPED FROM DEPOT CPT 2020-05-20 18:30 SHIPMENT RECEIVED BY DEPOT WRD 2020-05-21 03:52 And so the wait begins.
  6. Ditto. Remember to add "CWC" in front of your order number.
  7. Thank heavens, because my bike from another shop arrived today and I'm waiting for my pedals in a CWC order. Managed to find an old pair of 520's which I had to freshen up with some Q10 in order to get the bike around the garden as a test ride
  8. I have a set of pedals coming from CWC. I also have a new gravel bike coming next week from anther store, which is going to be needing abovementioned pedals. Hopefully they arrive soon!
  9. Any specific reason you're looking for 3x7? I have some 3x9 bits gathering dust that I'm willing to let go for free to someone willing to collect. Shifters, deraileurs, casette and crankset.
  10. Just saying what Chris Jnr said
  11. So instead of speculating, I got in touch with CWC and asked. "Incomplete" means that there's an item in the order which prevents shipping of the entire order, due to regulatory limitations. I have a pair of bib shorts, for example, which isn't allowed to ship. The rest of my order is fine to ship, however, but seems like it won't until everything can go.
  12. Could work out incredibly well for that one guy who ordered some inner tubes and is now getting a Kickr or a surprise bike. Imagine having to explain that to your wife after she's already pissed off with your previous N+1 purchase? "No, darling! I didn't buy this, it was a mistake in their shipping, I promise!"
  13. And here I thought "Hugenote" was referring to my heritage, but no, apparently the person made a wise decision to purchase items before prices increase!
  14. Someone decided to take advantage of a certain sale! I did similar:
  15. That's sort of how the M1 is, irrespective of which direction you go. At least that's what it feels like.
  16. Does anyone know when the charity bunches kick off?
  17. Also G agter having not done a race since the last 947. Not disappointed.
  18. You know he's not dead, right? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Oh dear... Looks like shipping is USD299. Not too awful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Very nice. My next bike will hopefully be an Ultimate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Means you can pick them up tax free, yes? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Competition is never a bad thing for the consumer. Will have to upgrade my wife's cycling computer if I'm getting her one though...
  23. Very good pricing. Glad they've finally come to our shores. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. My first pair of Sidis, courtesy of Hot Spot Cycles having a ridiculous discount on them. Always found the Sidis to be too narrow in the toe box, but the Ergo 4 Mega is wider than usual. Welcome upgrade to my Fizik R5s, which I've been feeling flexing more and more lately. The weight includes Shimano cleats. About 80g heavier than the Fiziks but these have carbon inserts and feel better constructed.
  25. And they're on the bike.
