And the bigger the deposit the better the interest rate. Play the banks up against each other for a better interest rate.

Get a secondhand bike (large or extra large frame) and ask yellowsaddle to build you a set of wheels. My guess is the wheels that will come standard on a R8000 bike might not be strong enough.

He is prepared to do the time, did you not read properly??

Obviously you did not read the whole thread.

Hyt sy gat af geval!

I have I think its Shimano 105 arches on my Giant TCR. I cant seem to "centre" them properly, they always tend to go to one side then the one pad rub against the rim. Am i suppose to tighten them somehow so that they stay in the middle, I see there is a nut that I can turn just behind the arches but that does not seem work? The back wheel seems to be fine. Any advice?

Haha you have nailed it on the head....that new stupid looking epic fanny pack comes to mind.

Which one is that?

I was wondering about this, its insane the amount of knowledge they have on the chateau's, scenary, towns etc. Do they study the stuff before each stage?

Avg speed of 31.25km/h! That is very fast for a x country course?

That does not look right, and by the way your derailleur is "bending" its not going to last. Dont use the big gears together.

I guess you are talking about the chainline on the drivetrain? I had the same issue on my Zula, ended up converting it to a 2X9 that was before the days of 2X10.

Lanklaas so knop in keel gehad!!

Hahah i got her message aswell.

Very nice! Got myself the kulhavy olympics red/orange one.

yes but its a piece of plastic. (if its that see-through one you are talking about) you will sweat a lot in that thing.

What?

What hardtail is it? Sorry if it was asked before?

Hierdie thread maak my sommer naar! Above R100k, what do you guys do for that salary?

Very nice bike, enjoy!

How much did you wish your guard was sitting a few cm's lower?

I think the shops name is cape town cycles. Its that shop that is in the industrial/warehouse like area in I think its brackenfell. They might have moved they are now somewhere in Durbanville.

Shame mr fuzzle can we have a fondsinsameling for you to buy new tyres? Those tyres saw the world!

I'm using the sram type 2, will never use any derailleur without the clutch again, I will go with the XT with the clutch.

Joh, this must be heaven...... All jokes aside, how do you think a trip like this will be for someone with a hardtail/4inch travel bike (which is by far the majority of people on the hub), obviously you wont do big jumps etc, will it be a waste of time and money?
