  1. Just had a look. That's some good looking wheels. Enjoy!
  2. You do realise that the Stans were just doing their job? I.E. sealing the hole, thats why it was accumulated,,,
  3. https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/86950-specialized-epic-29er-comp-2013-and-new-parts/ https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/86549-2012-rocky-mountain-element-950-l-29er/ https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/86889-trek-superfly-100-carbon-lots-of-upgrades/ https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/80610-cannondale-scalpel-3-carbon-26-l/ Some DS bikes currently in the classifieds - this way, if you do spend you R30k and end up not liking the sport you can sell it and not lose as much.. Just a thought.
  4. Yip. Bought a fork from her, good service all round.
  5. Cannondale on the seat tube goes the wrong way..
  6. Received my lights. Received first complaints from neighbors this morning, apparently I was shining a spotlight into their bedroom. Thanks Extremelights, my neighborly battle has escalated nicely.
  7. There's a guy selling Pina's on the corner of Rabie and Jan Smuts - I should remember to ask if those are genuine..
  8. Should we mail this to Carte Blanche? As the OP has said he has the info from more than one person that got swindled.
  9. I think all the hubbers in the area should go and act like they are interested in a Pinarello, but have their phones recording the conversation. Let them go through the whole sales pitch and at the end ask them about the allegations that they are selling counterfeit goods. Post recordings here.
  10. Same. Did an order for Extreme1200mk2 comboa and the extreme 1000 headlamp..
  11. I get where you're coming from, but your argument goes against most weight weenies. Otherwise there wouldn't be a market for titanium wheel nipples. or lightweight bottle cages? The weight saving on those will be less 100g.
  12. And please note. I'm not a regular - took my bike with when visiting family in the Vaal. And they treated me like a regular..
  13. I had to replace a crank on a saturday quite late, thought I had right tools at home, but turns out I didn't. They not only kept the shop for an additional hour, they had to cut new threads for the a new BB as the factory that built my bike stuffed it up, they were also cheaper with that crank than I had seen anywhere, even with a google search while in their store. They charged me R150 to stay open and cut new threads.. I can't say I was anything but impressed.
  14. I would've told you I got attacked by a T-rex whilst out saving someone from drowning in this terrible weather, then I had to assist with chopping the T-rex to pieces after it died magnificently in combat with me..
  15. Someone got stood up for their date, ey?
  16. A quick guide to the terminology: http://www.ducksters.com/history/middle_ages/knight_plate_armor_blank_labeled.jpg
  17. Go to MyBB and PM Pho3nix - think he works there.
  18. Some nice second hand options: https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/80975-commencal-meta-55-26-sram-x0-shimano-xt/ https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/80957-specialized-xc-pro-very-rare-wood-paint-finish/ https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/80953-gt-zaskar-pro-carbon-26/ https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/76873-giant-anthem-26er/
  19. I was in the same boat not too long ago - I bought a GT karakoram and have since upgraded the brakes, the wheelset, the saddle and the fork.. So, buy decent the first time to save from all the upgrades.
  20. Just get any other Pyga frame and get of the paint, decal it, clear coat it. Bob's your uncle.
  21. If that's the case, then he should take his budget and height and go purchase based on that
  22. He was referring to the cycle lab thread - calling the people there wankers. Which a couple of people in that thread did anyway. Nowhere do I see him referring to the OP in that manner.
  23. Wow. That's really uncalled for - think it was merely meant as tongue in cheek and comments like those gets your thread bumped at the end of the day, plus some light hearted banter usually results in better suggestions being made.
