  1. Thanx guys. u have just confused the hell out of me I am going to mess around and see if I get it right. Knowing me I will stuff it up first and then only get it right after which I will have to go to my LBS and buy new brake system.
  2. Well OK then. Will take it to them. Just thought there would be a nut or screw where I could adjust it.
  3. Yeah OK. Dont feel like damaging my disks. I could always take it to my LBS, but would like to work on it myself so I know what to do for the future.
  4. Being new to the whole disk brake thing I need a few questions answered. I bought a Bianchi around 8months ago. Since then I have maybe done +- 1600km. I noticed on todays ride that the rear brakes are not braking aswell as they should be. They are making a heck of a noise almost like when they get wet. So my question is: Are the pads finished? What is the km you get off a set of pads? How do you adjust the pads? as the brake lever seems to almost touch the handle bar now

    Shaving Legs

    Now I know I am going to get uitgekak. So elite riders shave their legs right? Well do you guys shave your arms aswell? Its been proven shaving your legs does not make you ride faster. its apparently got to do with hygiene if you fall the hairs dont go into the wound and make it "septic". So my thinking is when you fall chances are very high your arm is goingto also be grazed when you hit the deck. Anybody got a answer of why you dont shave your arms?
  9. Well dont try PTA then...you will be dissapointed.
  10. Speculation or Truth?
  11. Cyclist killed during Midmar Dam race 2010-10-10 17:00 Johannesburg - A cyclist was killed when she was hit by a car during a race at the Midmar Dam on Sunday, KwaZulu-Natal paramedics said. "A woman in her forties was entering the Midmar Dam venue for the final stretch of the race to the finish when she was knocked off her bike," said ER24 spokesperson Vanessa Jackson. "It is believed that a woman driving a Toyota Avanza cut in front of the cyclist on the R103 at the entrance to the dam, knocking the woman with extensive force." Her injuries were severe and she was declared dead at the scene. "The local police department arrived on the scene and detained the driver of the car for further questioning," Jackson said
  12. You see what **** service did to you!!!
  13. Let me rephrase: A new product for myself...Cyto Power HP...me likes
  14. What is the use of having a restaurant if customers cant eat there? Met my family after a ride in Groenies for breakfast this morning as we do from time to time. Got there at 08:45 just to be told they only open at 10:00. My wife being a diabetic needs to eat before 09:00 so she does not go "LOW". When and why would they change their times? This is not the first time I have been dissapointed by them. In August I had a international VIP client I booked to take him to Moyos for a traditional African meal. When we got there, the waitress says to me they are under staffed and when we order it will take upto an hour and a half before we get our food. Thats it, no more supporting this restaurant.Moyos you pissed me off... go get stuffed!!!!
  15. Went for a ride at Groenies this morning. Was great even though I have not been on the saddle in 2 weeks(work work work). Tried out a new USN product and had energy through out the ride. Feel good after the ride.
  16. its not only in todays world. I remember hitting the back of a vehicle on my bike when I was around 14 years old(20 years ago) on a busy road in Durbanville. Hit it so hard I broke the back stay off the bike. Nobody gave a **** that I was lying in the road only the guy who's car it was. Seems not much has changed. Good going Zaskar09.
  17. Nope I am buying the bars, its just Im worried it may crack or break on the ruff stuff. So not sure about its strength thats all
  18. Need to know if 3K WEAVE is tough enough for carbon MTB handle bars?
  19. u guys suck. Try 1.76 and 102.7kg. Now u see, youre not feeling that bad anymore.Still need to loose 15kg it feels like freakin forever.
  20. To the guy who can not spell red but spells it read traffic light...as*hole!!! Just kidding. I thought fags are meant to be clean people?? guess not
  21. sounds to me like they mistook the words South Africa with South America. Guess it could be a honest mistake. Still would erk me off though.

  23. I suggest you go to casualty and get this sorted out tonight. The longer you wait the worst it could become.
  24. This is a really uneasy topic. Part of me says my family should leave this country and move to where my kids and myself can cycle without looking left and right into bushes and part of me says its my country why should I leave. The reality is this is goingto get worse before it gets better. I personally think this is only the beginning before the other thugs figure out this easy money.
  25. Yip saw that too!!exclusive2010-05-10 05:33:26
